Fleet Accountability & Telematics Expansion
Fleet Management · Public Works Operations
High Priority
About this project
The city has identified vehicle misuse concerns and accountability gaps within its current fleet tracking setup, limiting operational oversight for Public Works. Capital budget allocations of $235K for fleet in FY 2026–2027 signal readiness to address these gaps through broader fleet management capabilities.
The opportunity
The FY 2026–2027 budget hearing in September 2026 creates an immediate window to align fleet expansion with approved capital funding. Cooperative purchasing vehicles are available to streamline procurement, and acting now positions the city to improve fleet accountability before the new fiscal year begins.

Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The city currently operates split emergency notification systems, creating workflow inefficiencies, unclear contract accountability, and documented gaps in EOP review and post-exercise reporting. These fragmented systems elevate operational and public safety risk for residents and first responders alike.
The opportunity
The FY 2026–2027 budget cycle, with a hearing in September 2026, includes $1.5M in proposed Fire Department capital funding—creating a near-term window to address consolidation. Acting now aligns spending with approved appropriations, reduces preparedness risk, and supports GIS-integrated response capabilities.

Cybersecurity Compliance · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The city faces active cybersecurity compliance mandates under Texas law—including annual training, incident reporting, and password management gaps—while relying on contracted IT services without dedicated governance tooling. A newly proposed IT Director role in the FY 2026–2027 budget signals a critical inflection point in how the city manages and secures its technology infrastructure.
The opportunity
The FY 2026–2027 budget hearing and an incoming IT leadership transition create a narrow window to shape cybersecurity strategy and secure funding before priorities are locked. Federal grant opportunities with October 2026 deadlines may offset costs for qualifying public safety IT investments, reducing the burden on the general fund.

Discuss this project →Web Accessibility & ADA Digital Compliance Remediation
Web Accessibility · ADA Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The city has identified ADA Title II and WCAG 2.1 Level AA compliance gaps across public-facing web properties, with a remediation plan in place but not fully implemented. Unresolved gaps create legal exposure and limit equitable digital access for residents, while proposed FY27 Website Services budget cuts add implementation risk.
The opportunity
The federal WCAG 2.1 Level AA deadline of 2028 establishes a firm compliance timeline, making near-term planning and budget alignment essential during the current FY27 budget cycle. Acting now reduces legal liability, supports equitable public access, and allows the city to phase investment manageably before the mandate takes effect.
