Web Accessibility & Digital Compliance Remediation
Web Accessibility · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The county faces a hard August 26, 2026 deadline to meet Title VI, ADA, and WCAG 2.1 website accessibility standards, with documented gaps in document accessibility and staff training. Unresolved deficiencies create legal exposure and risk inequitable access to public services for residents.
The opportunity
The active FY27 budget cycle—with an increased Software/License Services budget of $330,000 and adoption in September 2026—provides a clear funding window aligned with the compliance deadline. Strategic IT advising planned through May–September 2026 supports an accelerated procurement and remediation timeline.

Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The county's Emergency Operations Plan is 14 years old and overdue for revision, while EOC technology has been assessed as outdated and failing. With an active EOC renovation underway, unresolved gaps in planning and technology elevate preparedness risk for residents and first responders.
The opportunity
The EOC renovation creates a natural and time-sensitive window to align technology modernization with updated operational planning. EMPG and HSGP grants provide eligible funding pathways, and the active FY27 budget cycle supports near-term procurement decisions that strengthen county-wide emergency readiness.
Cybersecurity Mitigation & Endpoint Protection
Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The county has an active cybersecurity mitigation effort underway, with identified gaps in endpoint management and privileged access controls. An ongoing organizational realignment is expanding the county's risk surface, making unresolved credential and endpoint vulnerabilities an elevated operational concern.
The opportunity
The FY27 budget cycle is active with an increased IT software budget, and the county is eligible for EMPG and HSGP grants that can fund cybersecurity equipment. Addressing endpoint and access control gaps now aligns with current funding availability and reduces risk during a period of structural change.
Fleet Safety & Liability Cost Reduction
Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The county has experienced confirmed fleet accidents, driving a 25% increase in auto-liability insurance costs and signaling a measurable, growing financial risk. Addressing driver behavior monitoring and incident response gaps is critical to protecting public assets, staff safety, and long-term budget stability.
The opportunity
The 25% insurance budget increase provides a clear, quantifiable cost-justification for fleet safety investment, and the active FY27 budget cycle offers a natural procurement window. Cooperative purchasing agreements already in use by the county can streamline acquisition and accelerate deployment.

Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The county's emergency notification infrastructure is under review as part of a broader EOC modernization overhaul, with a 14-year-old EOP and aging EOC technology signaling significant preparedness gaps. Ensuring reliable public alerting is critical to operational continuity and resident safety during the transition.
The opportunity
The active EOC modernization initiative and EOP update create a natural, time-sensitive window to evaluate and strengthen notification capabilities, with EMPG and HSGP grants available to fund eligible upgrades. The FY27 budget cycle, with adoption anticipated in September 2026, supports near-term procurement planning and decision-making.
