Modernize Mass Notification and 311 Citizen Services
Emergency Management · Citizen Services
High Priority
About this project
The City's Emergency Management Plan is over 16 years old, its legacy mass notification system is slated for replacement, and HSEEP-style exercises are overdue — leaving residents and staff underserved during critical incidents. Integrating emergency push notifications into a modern 311 platform is a funded priority to close these preparedness and service delivery gaps.
The opportunity
A $20,000 capital budget allocation is already approved for FY2026-27, effective October 1, 2026, creating an immediate and funded procurement window. Acting now replaces an end-of-life notification system, strengthens emergency preparedness, and delivers measurable improvements in public safety and resident communication.

Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The Fire Department operates an aging apparatus fleet under active replacement pressure, while the city lacks fleet-specific claims tracking and analytics capabilities. A Safety Urgency score of 3 signals significant operational risk, and the absence of vehicle monitoring tools limits accountability and incident response readiness.
The opportunity
A $25,000 fleet monitoring allocation is included in the newly adopted FY2026-27 capital budget, effective October 1, 2026, creating an immediate procurement window. An ongoing Fire Chief leadership transition further opens the door for solution evaluation, and an existing GIS footprint supports faster integration and deployment.

Cybersecurity Compliance · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The City faces an August 31st Texas cybersecurity training mandate deadline alongside identified gaps in password security management. With $176k in FY2026-27 IT capital already allocated, the broader physical- and operational-security modernization initiative is budget-approved and ready for execution.
The opportunity
The August 31st compliance deadline creates non-negotiable urgency, and the BJA FY 2026 Edward Byrne Memorial JAG Program offers a conditional funding path for cybersecurity solutions tied to public-safety use. Acting within the current fiscal cycle leverages approved capital funding and reduces audit and operational risk.

IT Modernization · Cybersecurity Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The City's FY2026-27 budget includes a $176k IT capital allocation to address endpoint management and operational-security gaps as a strategic priority. Without modernized endpoint oversight, the City faces elevated cybersecurity risk and potential noncompliance with state-mandated training requirements.
The opportunity
The FY2026-27 budget, effective October 1, 2026, opens an immediate funding and execution window for this approved initiative. The BJA Edward Byrne Memorial JAG Program offers a supplemental grant pathway for public-safety-aligned IT investments, reducing reliance on local funds.

Discuss this project →Web Accessibility & Digital Compliance Modernization
Digital Accessibility · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The City has a documented obligation to achieve WCAG 2.1 Level AA web accessibility compliance by April 26, 2028, tied to active digital service initiatives including 311 platform modernization. Failure to act proactively elevates legal exposure and risks excluding residents from equitable access to public services.
The opportunity
The 2028 deadline provides a defined planning horizon, and bundling accessibility remediation with the ongoing 311 digital services initiative may allow for consolidated scope and budget efficiency. Addressing this within the current fiscal cycle reduces compliance risk and supports equitable, accessible service delivery for all residents.
