Emergency Operations Plan Development & Preparedness
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The district currently lacks a public EOP, has unverified alert systems, and identified communication dead zones — gaps that elevate operational and liability risk during emergencies. Overdue EOP review and NIMS adoption compliance mandates further expose the district to regulatory and public safety consequences.
The opportunity
The FY2026–2027 budget has been adopted with dedicated technology allocations, and a $500,000 rural ambulance grant signals strong local commitment to emergency response funding. Addressing preparedness gaps now aligns with the active buying window and reduces compliance and liability exposure.

Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
Identified communication dead zones and aging dispatch infrastructure are creating measurable gaps in emergency response capability. Budget-approved modernization initiatives for FY2026–2027 signal readiness to act, while unfunded radio repeater and warning siren needs represent compounding operational and public safety risk.
The opportunity
The adopted FY2026–2027 budget creates an active procurement window for communications and dispatch modernization. Addressing these gaps now reduces emergency response risk, supports NIMS compliance, and positions the district to pursue additional funding for unfunded infrastructure priorities in the next cycle.

Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The department lacks dash-camera and telematics capabilities, with documented asset governance gaps across its fleet and no compliance evidence on record. Liability insurance costs have surged 300% year-over-year, creating direct financial and operational risk tied to fleet safety accountability.
The opportunity
The recently adopted FY2026–2027 budget creates an active buying window, and cooperative procurement vehicles are already in place for fleet-related acquisitions, reducing procurement lead time. Acting now directly addresses board-level insurance cost pressure and establishes the compliance documentation needed to manage long-term liability exposure.

Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
Budget-approved line items for IT support and cybersecurity in FY2026–2027 confirm identified needs for network monitoring and endpoint protection. An existing third-party managed environment may require augmentation or transition to meet current operational and compliance standards.
The opportunity
The adopted FY2026–2027 budget creates an active buying window with documented funding for cybersecurity and IT infrastructure. Acting within this cycle reduces operational risk and positions the district to evaluate solutions aligned with compliance mandates and public safety continuity.
JAG Program
Discuss this project →Emergency Alert System Modernization & Notification Reliability
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
Existing alert systems are unverified and communication dead zones create critical gaps in public notification during active incidents. These deficiencies directly conflict with EOP review requirements and NIMS compliance obligations, elevating operational and liability risk for the district.
The opportunity
FY2026–2027 budget allocations for communications modernization create a near-term procurement window, and emergency preparedness funding may offset local costs. Addressing notification gaps now reduces compliance exposure and strengthens community-wide incident response outcomes.
