Endpoint Management & Cybersecurity Consolidation
Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The city operates a fragmented IT environment with mismatched endpoint and user management tools, an unfilled IT contractor role, and a compliance mandate under Texas Government Code §2054.5191 requiring cybersecurity training and audits. These gaps elevate operational and regulatory risk across workstation, device, identity, and Microsoft 365 administration functions.
The opportunity
A pending Homeland Security cybersecurity grant (SLCGP) of $258,000 is directly aligned with this initiative, and the FY2027 budget includes added IT Services funding. Acting within the current 90-day window maximizes grant eligibility and addresses open compliance obligations before audit exposure increases.
Centralized Identity & Access Management Modernization
Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
Texas Government Code §2054.5191 mandates cybersecurity controls and audit readiness, yet the city lacks centralized identity and password management across its fragmented tool ecosystem. This gap elevates credential risk, complicates compliance reporting, and exposes the organization to audit findings and unauthorized access.
The opportunity
A pending $258,000 State and Local Cybersecurity Grant (SLCGP) explicitly covers this initiative, reducing local funding burden. Leadership transitions create a timely opening to re-evaluate security posture and advance unified access controls before the next audit or fiscal cycle closes.
Emergency Operations Plan Modernization and NIMS Compliance
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The city's Emergency Operations Plan is at least 16 years overdue for an update, with no city-specific emergency coordinator or platform in place and continued reliance on regional county resources. The outdated mitigation plan creates NIMS compliance exposure and jeopardizes eligibility for state and federal emergency preparedness funding.
The opportunity
Compliance mandates require a current, NIMS-aligned EOP, and an explicit integration path with county emergency services creates a timely foundation for action. Addressing this gap now protects funding eligibility, reduces regulatory risk, and strengthens the city's independent emergency response capacity ahead of the next fiscal cycle.

Discuss this project →Web Accessibility & Digital Platform Compliance
Web Accessibility · Digital Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The city has an active website redesign underway with a confirmed go-live milestone, occurring alongside a binding ADA Title II WCAG 2.1 AA compliance deadline of April 26, 2028. Failure to meet this mandate exposes the city to legal and civil rights risk while limiting equitable public access to digital services.
The opportunity
The in-progress redesign creates a natural, cost-efficient window to embed accessibility standards before launch, avoiding costly post-go-live remediation. The FY2027 budget already reflects increased website investment, and cooperative purchasing memberships may streamline procurement within the current fiscal cycle.

Discuss this project →Fleet Telematics & Transportation Safety Modernization
Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
Police vehicle maintenance costs have significantly exceeded budget, workers' compensation costs are rising, and no dash camera or telematics system is currently deployed across the fleet. A previously planned fleet management program was postponed due to funding constraints, leaving operational and safety gaps unaddressed.
The opportunity
A pending $990,000 Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A) grant is directly aligned with this initiative, offering a substantial funding pathway with limited local match burden. Acting within the current grant window addresses escalating fleet costs, reduces liability exposure, and advances public safety outcomes.
