Countywide Mass Notification & Emergency Management Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The county lacks a verified countywide mass-notification system, has $0 budgeted for its listed Reverse 911 line item, and has an Emergency Operations Plan of unknown compliance status. Recent flooding disasters have exposed critical gaps in public alerting and preparedness, while NIMS adoption and hazard mitigation plan obligations remain unresolved.
The opportunity
An existing emergency notification contract expires within 10 months, creating an immediate decision window aligned with the current fiscal cycle. Federal grant programs including HSGP and EMPG offer eligible funding pathways, and cooperative purchasing agreements already in place can streamline procurement and accelerate deployment.
Hazard Mitigation Plan Update & Emergency Preparedness Compliance
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The county's hazard mitigation plan has expired and Emergency Operations Plan review status is unknown, creating measurable compliance risk against NIMS adoption mandates. Recent flooding disasters have exposed gaps in countywide mass-notification and emergency response readiness, elevating risk to residents and staff.
The opportunity
Active participation in the SB 3 Flood Early Warning System signals strategic readiness, and federal grant programs aligned with emergency preparedness and hazard mitigation offer viable funding pathways. Addressing compliance gaps now—ahead of the upcoming fiscal cycle—reduces audit exposure and strengthens community resilience.
Web Accessibility & ADA/WCAG Compliance Modernization
Web Accessibility · ADA Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The county faces rising website costs driven by new ADA specifications and a mandated WCAG 2.1 AA compliance standard, while operating on a platform under active review for replacement. Without modernization, the county risks accessibility violations, inequitable public service delivery, and continued budget pressure.
The opportunity
Budget decisions are imminent in early September, and the county's procurement cycle for a new website platform is already underway—making this an ideal moment to act. Cooperative purchasing mechanisms are in place, and the initiative aligns with the current fiscal cycle, reducing barriers to funding and implementation.

Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The county faces escalating insurance premiums, a doubled mobile-equipment deductible, and significant budget overruns in auto repair and tire expenses. Historical incidents with disputed fault and no video documentation expose the county to financial and liability risk with limited means of accountability.
The opportunity
Rising fleet-related costs create a strong ROI case for investment now, and the PROTECT grant offers an eligible funding pathway with cooperative purchasing mechanisms already in active use to streamline procurement. Acting within the current fiscal cycle can reduce insurance exposure and improve incident documentation across county operations.

Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The county has active initiatives for county-wide managed IT services and cybersecurity compliance, training, and regional security monitoring, with an established but potentially under-resourced infrastructure. While training compliance is currently met, ongoing mandates and evolving threats create operational risk for county systems and the residents they serve.
The opportunity
BJA JAG and HSGP/EMPG grant programs explicitly support information systems and technology improvements, and a $250,000 FY2026 public safety grant signals available budget aligned to this effort. Acting within the current fiscal cycle allows the county to expand security monitoring capabilities, reduce exposure, and steward public funds responsibly.
