Emergency Operations Plan & Preparedness Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The City faces significant emergency preparedness gaps, including an overdue Emergency Operations Plan, a shared coordinator role creating staffing dependency, and notification system usability concerns. Compliance mandates require an active EOP and NIMS adoption, elevating operational and public safety risk.
The opportunity
Federal grants including HSGP and EMPG are aligned funding sources for emergency preparedness initiatives, and the current fiscal environment supports near-term action. Addressing these gaps now reduces compliance exposure and strengthens the City's ability to protect residents during critical incidents.
Mass Notification System Modernization for Emergency Readiness
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The City's current emergency notification platform has documented usability concerns that limit reliable communication with staff and residents during incidents. Combined with an overdue Emergency Operations Plan and a shared coordinator function, these gaps elevate operational and compliance risk under NIMS and emergency preparedness mandates.
The opportunity
HSGP and EMPG grant funding aligns directly with this modernization effort, reducing the local cost burden. Acting within the current fiscal cycle strengthens incident response, closes compliance gaps, and improves public safety outcomes for residents and staff.
Web Accessibility & ADA Compliance Modernization
Web Accessibility · ADA Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The City faces a defined mandate to meet WCAG 2.1 Level AA standards by April 26, 2028, with an active ADA Self-Evaluation and Transition Plan already underway. Gaps in digital accessibility expose the City to legal and compliance risk while limiting equitable public access to government services.
The opportunity
The 2028 deadline creates a structured procurement window, and the City's confirmed cooperative purchasing membership streamlines acquisition and reduces lead time. Acting within the current fiscal cycle supports alignment with the adopted FY2026-27 IT budget increase and ensures implementation milestones stay on track.

Discuss this project →IT Infrastructure Replacement & Cybersecurity Refresh
IT Modernization · Cybersecurity
High Priority
About this project
The City has a budget-approved IT replacement and cybersecurity infrastructure refresh initiative, with an identified gap in password security and an active RFP for Security Cameras and Access Controls due September 3, 2026. Aging infrastructure and unaddressed credential vulnerabilities elevate operational and public safety risk.
The opportunity
The FY2026-27 budget includes a 6% General Fund IT increase and $15.8M in capital project funding, with JAG, HSGP, and EMPG grants aligned to cybersecurity investments. The active RFP deadline of September 3, 2026 creates immediate urgency to act within the current procurement and funding cycle.
Fleet Telematics & Transportation Safety Modernization
Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The City operates a 90-vehicle fleet with no documented dash-camera or telematics system, creating significant auto-liability exposure and rising insurance and deductible costs. The absence of fleet visibility tools elevates financial and operational risk for both staff and the public.
The opportunity
Voter-approved road improvement bonds ($38M) and HSIP funding ($1.27M) provide a strong capital funding environment to advance fleet safety technology now, offsetting Fleet Maintenance operating budget reductions. Acting within the current fiscal cycle positions the City to reduce liability costs and improve public safety outcomes.

Discuss this project →Physical Security Infrastructure Modernization
Physical Security · Public Safety Technology
High Priority
About this project
The City has an active RFP for security cameras and physical access controls with a September 3, 2026 deadline, backed by newly adopted IT-security funding. Gaps in physical security infrastructure elevate operational risk for municipal facilities and the residents and staff who depend on them.
The opportunity
FY2026-27 budget includes $303,265 designated for public safety technology, and cooperative purchasing membership can accelerate procurement timelines. Acting before the RFP deadline ensures funding is captured and modernization stays on schedule within the current fiscal cycle.
