Emergency Operations Plan & Mass Notification Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The county faces critical emergency preparedness gaps—including an unverified EOP, lapsed NIMS-aligned documentation, and an uncertain mass-notification status—exposed sharply by a recent major winter storm. A leadership vacancy in the EMA directorship has compounded these risks, leaving residents and staff without a verified continuity framework.
The opportunity
A leadership transition creates an immediate opening to reset preparedness priorities, while existing public safety investment signals—including a state grant to the county Rescue Squad and FY2026 911 operational support—provide adjacent funding footholds eligible to anchor near-term action.

Discuss this project →Web Accessibility & Digital Document Compliance
Web Accessibility · Digital Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The county faces a federal WCAG 2.1 Level AA web accessibility mandate with a 2027 deadline, and its current compliance status has not been established. Gaps in document-level accessibility expose the county to legal and reputational risk, with existing investments potentially leaving critical remediation needs unaddressed.
The opportunity
The 2027 compliance deadline creates a defined procurement window, and acting now allows the county to assess gaps, remediate documents, and avoid last-minute cost spikes. This project aligns with current budget planning cycles and may be eligible for state or federal digital equity funding.
Fleet Safety & Telematics Modernization
Fleet Safety · Public Works Operations
High Priority
About this project
The county has experienced documented fleet safety incidents—including a fire truck crash and equipment striking public property—driving up insurance costs and exposing operational liability. Early interest in GPS visibility for emergency vehicles signals readiness to act, while the Solid Waste department's growing vehicle maintenance budget reflects mounting pressure across departments.
The opportunity
The county's adopted SS4A initiative creates a structured, grant-supported pathway for fleet safety investment, and a Buses and Bus Facilities grant may offer additional funding if project alignment is established. Acting within the current fiscal cycle positions the county to reduce insurance exposure, improve driver accountability, and advance a stated strategic priority.
Safe Streets and Roads for All
Discuss this project →IT Endpoint Management and Infrastructure Modernization
IT Modernization · Infrastructure Support
High Priority
About this project
The county operates under an annually renewed third-party IT services contract, creating a recurring evaluation point for endpoint management and hardware support. With an active but constrained IT budget of approximately $95,696 and a projected FY2027 deficit, operational continuity and cost efficiency are growing concerns.
The opportunity
The July 1st contract renewal cycle is an immediate, predictable window to assess infrastructure value and consolidation opportunities. Library technology grant funding offers an eligible budget pathway for targeted improvements, supporting cost-conscious modernization ahead of anticipated fiscal constraints.
