Emergency Notification Consolidation & Mass Alert Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The City operates a fragmented dual-platform notification ecosystem with an expiring emergency notification contract and unresolved status on a second system. Gaps in EOP review documentation and absent after-action reports elevate compliance and operational risk for residents and staff.
The opportunity
The active FY 2026–2027 budget window and an expiring notification contract create an immediate consolidation decision point. BJA JAG funding explicitly supports public-safety technology, offering a viable path to modernize emergency alerting with limited local match required.

Discuss this project →ADA Title II Digital Accessibility Compliance
ADA Compliance · Digital Accessibility
High Priority
About this project
The City faces a mandated WCAG 2.1 Level AA compliance deadline in April 2027, with identified gaps spanning its website, digital documents, forms, mobile applications, and public-facing content. Unaddressed, these gaps create legal exposure and risk excluding residents with disabilities from essential city services.
The opportunity
The April 2027 deadline creates a defined, near-term compliance window that aligns with the FY 2026–2027 budget cycle, making this an actionable priority now. Proactive investment reduces legal risk, improves equitable service delivery, and positions the City to remediate gaps in a phased, fiscally responsible manner.
IT Internalization & Managed Endpoint Modernization
IT Modernization · Endpoint Management
High Priority
About this project
The City is transitioning from outsourced to in-house IT management, with a budget-approved initiative to hire an IT Director and centralize technology operations. Expiring third-party tech service contracts and $240,513 in annual IT software spend highlight the urgency of establishing scalable, internally managed endpoint and device management capabilities.
The opportunity
The active FY 2026–2027 budget cycle and BJA JAG grant eligibility create a well-aligned funding window for this transition. Acting now ensures continuity of IT operations, reduces risk from contract gaps, and positions the City to govern its technology infrastructure effectively under new leadership.

Discuss this project →Credential Security and Cybersecurity Compliance Remediation
Cybersecurity · IT Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The City faces active cybersecurity compliance mandates requiring annual training and incident reporting, alongside a documented gap in privileged credential and password management. The presence of cloud productivity and remote access tools in the environment expands the credential attack surface, elevating breach and audit risk.
The opportunity
The FY 2026–2027 budget cycle reflects increased IT software investment, and the BJA FY 2026 JAG grant explicitly covers cybersecurity tools—providing a viable funding path with limited local match. Acting now aligns remediation with active budget decisions and satisfies non-discretionary compliance obligations before audit exposure grows.

Discuss this project →Fleet Telematics and In-Car Video Modernization
Public Safety · Fleet Management
High Priority
About this project
The City faces documented fleet risks—including a stolen vehicle incident and the absence of in-car video and driver behavior monitoring—leaving gaps in evidence collection, accountability, and liability management. Police and Public Works fleets lack an integrated telematics and monitoring solution, increasing insurance cost pressures and operational exposure.
The opportunity
Planned FY 2026–2027 capital investments and cooperative procurement membership provide a streamlined funding and acquisition pathway for fleet modernization. BJA JAG grant eligibility further broadens funding options, making this an ideal cycle to close safety and accountability gaps across municipal fleets.

Discuss this project →Civic Platform & Permitting Contract Renewal
IT Modernization · Civic Services
High Priority
About this project
The City faces simultaneous contract expirations for its civic engagement and permitting/land management platforms within an 18-month window, creating service delivery risk if renewals or replacements are not planned proactively. New leadership and an incoming IT Director add urgency to re-evaluate these platforms as part of a broader modernization effort.
The opportunity
The active FY 2026–2027 budget cycle and leadership transition create a near-term window to right-size platform investments and improve permitting efficiency and resident-facing service delivery. Acting within the current fiscal cycle ensures continuity, avoids lapsed contracts, and positions the City to align technology decisions with incoming administration priorities.
