Web Accessibility & ADA Compliance Modernization
Web Accessibility · Digital Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The Commissioners' Court has approved an accessibility compliance tool to close WCAG and ADA gaps across public-facing web properties, with an active website migration and budget already allocated. Unresolved compliance gaps expose the county to legal and reputational risk while limiting equitable access to digital services for residents.
The opportunity
Recent budget approvals, scheduled IT budget workshops, and an incoming IT Director create a narrow window to advance procurement and embed accessibility standards before new leadership resets priorities. Cooperative purchasing vehicles may streamline acquisition, and the initiative aligns with current fiscal-year planning cycles.
Next Generation Warning System Grant
Discuss this project →Emergency Operations Plan Update and Siren Coverage Expansion
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
Outdated EOP documentation and gaps in warning-siren coverage have been identified, compounded by recent emergency incidents including a tornado warning and train derailment. An all-volunteer staffing model increases operational risk, making remediation a pressing public safety priority.
The opportunity
An active EOP review is already underway, and aligned grant programs offer clear funding paths with strong eligibility. Acting within the current 90-day window maximizes grant leverage, reduces community risk, and advances compliance before the next emergency cycle.

Discuss this project →Cybersecurity Tools, Training & IT Management Modernization
Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The county has approved budget for cybersecurity tools and training, with multiple active initiatives spanning endpoint protection, monitoring, and consulting. An incoming IT Director transition creates both urgency and risk, as gaps in security posture and IT management could expose public systems and data during the leadership change.
The opportunity
The Homeland Security Grant Program (HSGP) offers a relevant funding pathway for cybersecurity investments, and recent budget increases confirm available capacity. Acting within the current fiscal cycle—ahead of the IT Director transition—positions the county to reduce operational risk and establish a stronger security baseline.
Fleet Safety Monitoring & Vehicle Telematics Deployment
Fleet Safety · Public Safety Technology
High Priority
About this project
Documented fleet-involved accidents and unresolved liability claims signal a critical gap in driver behavior oversight and incident accountability. Emergency apparatus currently operates without publicly documented safety monitoring programs, increasing operational and legal exposure for the department.
The opportunity
Funded vehicle purchases already in the pipeline create a natural integration point for telematics and camera systems, reducing redundant procurement effort. Acting within the current budget cycle allows the department to leverage cooperative purchasing pathways that can accelerate procurement and lower administrative burden.

IT Modernization · Endpoint Management
High Priority
About this project
An incoming IT Director appointment is expected to trigger a review of existing endpoint protection and IT management tooling, with fragmented solutions creating monitoring gaps and operational risk. Consolidating infrastructure management now reduces redundancy and strengthens the county's cybersecurity posture ahead of leadership transition.
The opportunity
Scheduled IT budget workshops signal imminent allocation decisions, and the HSGP grant provides a viable funding pathway for eligible IT management initiatives. Acting within the current fiscal window positions the county to align new leadership priorities with funded, mission-ready infrastructure improvements.
