AWIA Emergency Response Plan Compliance and Readiness
Emergency Management · Water Infrastructure Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The district currently lacks a district-specific Emergency Response Plan and mass-notification system, relying instead on county-level infrastructure. The America's Water Infrastructure Act (AWIA) mandates a compliant ERP by December 31, 2026, creating a hard regulatory deadline with operational and public-safety consequences.
The opportunity
With an active risk-and-resilience assessment already underway and budget allocated, the district is positioned to advance ERP development ahead of the 2026 deadline. FEMA and DHS grant programs offer eligible funding pathways, and acting within the current fiscal cycle reduces compliance risk and strengthens community water-system resilience.

Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The district currently relies on county-level systems for emergency notifications, lacking a district-owned solution to independently alert staff and residents during incidents. This gap is identified as a critical emergency preparedness deficiency, with AWIA Emergency Response Plan compliance required by December 31, 2026.
The opportunity
The December 31, 2026 AWIA ERP deadline creates immediate urgency, and the district has already approved planning agreements signaling active budget commitment. FEMA and DHS grant programs offer eligible funding pathways, making this an actionable, near-term opportunity to close a documented compliance and operational resilience gap.

Discuss this project →Cybersecurity Training & Password Security Compliance
Cybersecurity Compliance · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The district faces a past-due cybersecurity training and password-security mandate with documented consequences for non-compliance, creating immediate regulatory and operational risk. Budget-approved IT and cybersecurity modernization initiatives are active, and legal counsel is already engaged on this issue.
The opportunity
With the compliance deadline already passed, this is the most time-critical gap in the district's IT portfolio—delay increases exposure to penalties and breach risk. Approved modernization budgets and eligibility for the State and Local Cybersecurity Grant Program support near-term action within the current fiscal cycle.

Discuss this project →Web Accessibility & Digital Portal Compliance
Web Accessibility · Digital Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The district is working toward WCAG 2.1 Level AA web accessibility compliance with a mandate deadline approaching in 2027–2028, and a web services agreement has already been approved. Without timely implementation, the district risks non-compliance, inequitable public access to digital services, and potential legal exposure.
The opportunity
Budget has already been allocated and active planning is underway, creating a defined implementation window ahead of the compliance deadline. Acting within the current fiscal cycle ensures accessible digital services for all residents while reducing compliance and operational risk.
Fleet Visibility & Vehicle Monitoring Modernization
Fleet Management · Operational Safety
High Priority
About this project
The district has no documented vehicle-specific monitoring in place, creating a gap in fleet visibility that limits operational oversight and preventive risk management. While no immediate crisis has been identified, the absence of telematics data leaves the district without the tools needed to ensure driver accountability and asset stewardship.
The opportunity
Addressing this gap proactively—before incidents occur—positions the district to improve operational efficiency and reduce liability exposure ahead of future budget cycles. With no competing solutions currently in place, the district has a clear path to implement a right-sized solution aligned with existing capital planning and engineering partnerships.
