Emergency Operations Plan & EOC Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The city faces critical emergency preparedness gaps — including an EOP of unknown age, a flood-displaced EOC, and a mass notification system with documented registration errors and delayed alerts — all ahead of a hard TDEM planning standard compliance deadline of November 2027.
The opportunity
The active FY 2026–2027 budget cycle and a confirmed FEMA Hazard Mitigation Grant sub-award create an immediate funding and decision window. Acting now advances TDEM compliance, strengthens community resilience, and leverages existing grant momentum before the November 2027 deadline.

Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The city has accepted a FEMA Hazard Mitigation Grant sub-award for an outdoor warning siren network and is actively pursuing additional funding to expand coverage. Recognized gaps in public alerting infrastructure, combined with a TDEM planning compliance deadline of November 2027, elevate both operational and regulatory risk.
The opportunity
Federal grant funding is secured and an expansion application is actively in progress, creating a near-term procurement window tied directly to available dollars. Acting within the current fiscal cycle maximizes grant alignment, advances TDEM compliance, and strengthens community-wide alerting before the 2027 deadline.

Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The city's current mass notification platform has documented registration errors and delayed alerts, creating measurable gaps in public safety communication. With an active goal to evaluate alternatives and a TDEM planning compliance deadline approaching in November 2027, the operational and regulatory risk of inaction is escalating.
The opportunity
The active FY 2026–2027 budget cycle and an accepted FEMA Hazard Mitigation Grant create a near-term funding pathway for this replacement. Acting now aligns procurement with current appropriations and strengthens community-wide emergency alerting before the next severe weather season.

Discuss this project →Web Accessibility & Digital Records Compliance
Web Accessibility · Digital Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The city faces a WCAG 2.1 Level AA compliance deadline of April 2028 across public-facing digital portals, creating legal exposure and accessibility risk for residents. Concurrent gaps in document accessibility and an active initiative to digitize records broaden the remediation scope across web properties and digital archives.
The opportunity
The active FY 2026–2027 budget cycle presents a current decision window to fund accessibility remediation before compliance risk escalates. Cooperative purchasing agreements already in use can streamline procurement, and digitization goals align this effort with broader operational modernization priorities.
Cybersecurity and IT Infrastructure Modernization
Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The city's IT environment relies on fragmented, overlapping endpoint and backup tools, creating visibility gaps and unmanaged security risk. Active strategic initiatives for cybersecurity enhancements and infrastructure modernization signal recognized exposure, but consolidation remains incomplete heading into the current budget cycle.
The opportunity
Cybersecurity and IT modernization are explicitly funded priorities within the active FY 2026–2027 budget, creating a near-term procurement window. Consolidating fragmented tooling now reduces operational risk, strengthens security posture, and aligns spending with already-approved goals before the fiscal cycle closes.
Fleet Safety & Telematics Modernization
Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The city lacks confirmed dash-camera and telematics coverage, has a prior collision on record, and carries undisclosed fleet-loss exposure. These gaps in driver monitoring and vehicle visibility create compounding safety and financial liability risk, including elevated insurance premiums.
The opportunity
The active FY 2026–2027 budget cycle presents a current decision window, and cooperative purchasing agreements may streamline procurement. Addressing fleet visibility gaps now reduces liability exposure, supports driver accountability, and strengthens stewardship of public assets.
