IT & Cybersecurity Modernization: Managed IT Transition
IT Modernization · Cybersecurity
High Priority
About this project
A significant technology disruption in August 2026 during an IT transition has created immediate pressure for security assessment, device remediation, and continuity planning. The county is actively moving to managed IT services while maintaining CJIS compliance obligations, and the existing remote monitoring environment requires replacement to reduce ongoing operational risk.
The opportunity
The managed-IT renewal window in October 2026 and the FY2027 budget adoption deadline of September 30, 2026 create time-bound entry points for action. Justice Assistance Grant funding eligible for cybersecurity and criminal-justice IT systems is available with an October 2026 deadline, and the county's increased IT budget—partially funded by property sale proceeds—supports near-term investment.
Credential & Identity Security for CJIS Compliance
Cybersecurity · CJIS Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The county faces active CJIS Security Policy mandates—including v5.9.5 requirements and v6.1 preparation—alongside annual DIR-certified cybersecurity training obligations. Gaps in password management, multi-factor authentication, and audit controls elevate both regulatory and operational risk for criminal-justice information systems.
The opportunity
The JAG grant program directly funds criminal-justice information systems and cybersecurity technology, with a deadline in October 2026. Acting within the current grant window and ahead of the FY2027 budget cycle positions the county to close compliance gaps, reduce audit exposure, and protect sensitive public-safety data.
Web Accessibility & Digital Portal Compliance
Web Accessibility · Digital Equity & Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The county faces a documented mandate to meet WCAG 2.1 Level AA standards by April 2027, triggered by its population exceeding 50,000. Gaps across public-facing documents and web portals create legal exposure and limit equitable resident access to government services.
The opportunity
The April 2027 deadline establishes a firm procurement and implementation timeline, making near-term action essential to avoid legal and compliance risk. Cooperative purchasing vehicles are available to streamline procurement, and this initiative aligns with current FY planning cycles.
EOC Modernization & Mass Notification System Upgrade
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The county has documented deficiencies in emergency notification and first-responder communication systems, with an Emergency Operations Plan that is overdue or unverifiable. A regional platform transition and new EOC development are underway while emergency management staff remain critically understaffed.
The opportunity
The concurrent EOC build-out and mass notification platform transition create a well-timed window to close preparedness gaps before FY2027 budget decisions are finalized. Emergency management funding is active, and addressing these deficiencies now reduces operational liability and strengthens community resilience.
Sheriff's Fleet Safety & Telematics Modernization
Fleet Safety · Public Safety Technology
High Priority
About this project
The Sheriff's Office is actively replacing fleet vehicles without documented safety monitoring technology in place, creating measurable liability and operational risk exposure. An unresolved liability claim underscores the urgency of implementing fleet safety and telematics tools to protect personnel, the public, and the county's fiscal standing.
The opportunity
The active fleet acquisition cycle creates a natural window to integrate safety technology before new vehicles are fully deployed, avoiding costly retrofits later. Law enforcement equipment grant funding may offset costs, and cooperative purchasing agreements can streamline procurement within the current fiscal cycle.
Sheriff Immigration Law Enforcement Grant
Discuss this project →Law Enforcement Records & CAD System Modernization
Public Safety IT · Law Enforcement Technology
High Priority
About this project
The county has an active purchase order for law enforcement software encompassing AVL, CAD, and records management system licenses as part of a broader initiative to modernize core public safety IT infrastructure. The rollout introduces integration complexity and cybersecurity exposure—particularly given CJIS compliance requirements—that must be managed to protect operational continuity and sensitive criminal justice data.
The opportunity
The active modernization cycle creates a near-term window to address adjacent gaps in endpoint security, identity management, and IT continuity before the implementation matures. JAG grant funding is available for criminal-justice information systems and cybersecurity technology, with a deadline in the current fiscal cycle, reducing the local budget burden.
