EOP Modernization and Warning System Consolidation
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The city lacks a dated Emergency Operations Plan, faces outstanding warning system needs, and operates a fragmented alerting environment across two separate platforms—creating consolidation risk and liability exposure. A compliance mandate requiring an EOP update, combined with strained EMS capacity, elevates operational and public safety risk.
The opportunity
Active grant-funded hazard mitigation planning and a dedicated emergency management technology budget create a near-term funding pathway for this initiative. An upcoming leadership transition in September 2026 reinforces the urgency to advance EOP compliance and warning system modernization within the current planning cycle.

Cybersecurity & Identity Management · Law Enforcement Compliance
High Priority
About this project
Law enforcement agencies must meet CJIS Security Policy 6.0 requirements by October 2027, including stronger identity, password, and multi-factor authentication controls. Without established tooling in place, departments face elevated audit risk, potential loss of criminal justice data access, and exposure to unauthorized system access.
The opportunity
The October 2027 CJIS deadline creates a defined, actionable compliance window for departments to act within current budget and grant cycles. The BJA FY 2026 JAG Program explicitly supports law-enforcement technology improvements, offering a viable funding path with no incumbent solution to navigate around.

Discuss this project →IT Infrastructure Modernization for Municipal Operations
IT Modernization · Public Sector Operations
High Priority
About this project
The city has identified an IT modernization initiative with no incumbent management platform in place and a current annual IT and software spend of just $1,100, signaling a significant infrastructure gap. Active leadership transition and departmental reorganization elevate operational risk and underscore the urgency of establishing a sustainable, managed IT foundation.
The opportunity
The BJA FY 2026 Justice Assistance Grant Program provides an eligible funding path for information systems and technology improvements, aligning with the current planning cycle. Acting during the leadership transition window positions the city to modernize operations, reduce risk, and demonstrate responsible stewardship of public resources.

Discuss this project →Web Accessibility & Digital Portal Compliance
Digital Accessibility · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
Public-facing digital portals have identified gaps in WCAG 2.1 Level AA conformance, creating compliance exposure ahead of the 2028 federal mandate. Residents relying on city services online face barriers to equitable access, and an incoming City Manager transition elevates the visibility of unresolved compliance gaps.
The opportunity
The 2028 compliance deadline creates a defined planning window, and an active website accessibility initiative signals organizational readiness to act. Addressing this now allows the city to align remediation efforts with the upcoming fiscal cycle and demonstrate public accountability under new leadership.

Discuss this project →CAD System Renewal and Replacement Decision
Public Safety Technology · Dispatch Operations
High Priority
About this project
The existing Computer-Aided Dispatch (CAD) contract expired June 30, 2026, creating an immediate operational and procurement risk for dispatch continuity and public safety service delivery. Without resolution, the gap threatens response coordination and leaves the city without a supported, compliant dispatch platform.
The opportunity
An upcoming City Manager transition in September 2026 creates urgency to resolve this critical infrastructure gap before new leadership inherits an unaddressed operational risk. Cooperative purchasing access can streamline procurement, and the decision aligns with current fiscal-year planning windows.

Discuss this project →Fleet Safety & Vehicle Monitoring Modernization
Fleet Safety · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
A prior patrol-unit collision lawsuit—where vehicle footage proved critical—has exposed gaps in comprehensive fleet monitoring, including dash cameras and telematics. Rising workers' compensation costs further signal financial and operational risk tied to officer and vehicle safety.
The opportunity
Leadership transitions and upcoming fiscal planning create a timely window to build the business case for proactive fleet safety investment before costs escalate further. Law enforcement technology improvements may be eligible for justice assistance funding, reducing the local budget burden.
