Fleet Telematics & In-Vehicle Camera System Modernization
Fleet Safety · Public Safety Technology
High Priority
About this project
A recent fleet-involved accident injured officers, exposing critical gaps in pursuit safety, evidence capture, and legal accountability. The city's active Capital Improvement Plan for vehicle replacement creates an immediate need for integrated telematics and in-vehicle camera systems to reduce liability and strengthen officer safety.
The opportunity
The FY2026–27 budget cycle and federal public safety technology allocations provide a clear, time-sensitive funding path for this investment. Cooperative purchasing agreements already in use by the city enable streamlined procurement, reducing administrative burden and accelerating deployment.
COPS TEP
Discuss this project →Emergency Operations Plan & Mass Notification Consolidation
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The city lacks a publicly available Emergency Operations Plan, and alerting responsibilities are fragmented across multiple platforms with unclear city-county coordination. The absence of documented exercises or audits elevates operational and compliance risk, leaving residents and first responders without a unified emergency response framework.
The opportunity
Federal grant funding for emergency management modernization is actively available and aligns with the current FY2026-27 budget and procurement planning cycle. Consolidating mass notification and formalizing an EOP now reduces liability, closes preparedness gaps, and positions the city to meet compliance expectations before the next budget window closes.
CJIS MFA Compliance for Law Enforcement Systems
Cybersecurity · Law Enforcement Compliance
High Priority
About this project
A federal CJIS mandate requires law enforcement agencies to implement multi-factor authentication, with a compliance deadline of October 1, 2024. Agencies without MFA in place face access risk to criminal justice systems, potential audit findings, and exposure to data breach liability affecting officers and the public.
The opportunity
Federal public safety technology allocations — including identified funding signals of $375K and $700K — may be eligible to support this cybersecurity initiative within the current budget cycle. Acting now addresses an overdue compliance requirement while reducing operational and legal risk to the department.
IT Endpoint Management & Monitoring Modernization
IT Modernization · Cybersecurity
High Priority
About this project
The department's IT infrastructure lacks centralized endpoint visibility, consistent patch management, and remote monitoring capabilities, creating operational and cybersecurity risk. Federal compliance mandates and an active modernization initiative underscore the urgency of closing these gaps across departmental systems.
The opportunity
Federal allocations designated for public safety technology—totaling over $1M—provide a direct funding pathway, and alignment with the FY2026–27 budget cycle creates a time-sensitive planning window. Acting now supports compliance readiness, reduces operational risk, and positions the department to leverage cooperative purchasing for faster procurement.
Web Accessibility & ADA Compliance Remediation
Digital Accessibility · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
Identified gaps in WCAG/ADA compliance across public-facing digital properties create legal exposure and restrict equitable access to city services for residents with disabilities. Remediation is a compliance-driven requirement with ongoing litigation risk if left unaddressed.
The opportunity
Active budget planning cycles and existing digital infrastructure relationships offer a practical pathway to bundle accessibility remediation into current fiscal-year priorities. Addressing compliance now reduces legal liability, broadens public service access, and aligns with responsible stewardship of public funds.
Public Safety Budget & Revenue Stabilization Planning
Public Safety · Budget & Finance
High Priority
About this project
A November 2026 ballot measure represents a potential new revenue source with direct implications for public safety technology investment. Current procurement thresholds are low, requiring cooperative purchasing or phased acquisitions to operate within existing budget constraints.
The opportunity
The active FY2026–27 budget cycle (May–August 2026) is the immediate window to align public safety technology proposals ahead of the ballot outcome. Federal allocations for public safety technology and existing cooperative purchasing vehicles support procurement readiness with reduced local match burden.
