Emergency Operations Plan Validation and Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The county's Emergency Operations Plan is unverified and preparedness gaps are significant, highlighted by a recent major winter storm. Active initiatives around storm-shelter registration and emergency-resilience planning underscore the urgency of formalizing a validated, current EOP.
The opportunity
The FY 2026 Next Generation Warning System Grant Program and state-level E-911 funding create a near-term window to advance this work with reduced local budget impact. A leadership transition in 911 dispatch further opens the door for new preparedness initiatives ahead of the upcoming budget cycle.

Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The county's current mass notification platform has documented coverage limitations that reduce its ability to reach all residents during emergencies, including severe weather events. Modernizing this system is an active strategic initiative, and an unverified Emergency Operations Plan compounds the operational and public safety risk.
The opportunity
The FY 2026 Next Generation Warning System Grant Program provides a time-sensitive funding pathway aligned directly with this initiative. A leadership transition in early 2025 and confirmed cooperative purchasing agreements support a streamlined procurement process within the current planning cycle.

Public Safety · Cybersecurity
High Priority
About this project
CISA has issued specific recommendations targeting password security deficiencies at Public Safety Answering Points (PSAPs), creating a direct compliance driver for 911 centers. Unaddressed credential and access management gaps elevate operational risk for critical emergency communications infrastructure.
The opportunity
A Cybersecurity Grant has been identified on the budget committee agenda, and upcoming budget meetings in July/August 2026 create a near-term procurement window. Acting within this cycle allows the agency to align funding with compliance requirements and reduce risk to public safety operations.

Web Accessibility · ADA Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The county faces a WCAG 2.1 Level AA compliance mandate with a 2028 deadline, and an incomplete ADA transition plan signals active but unfinished remediation. Gaps in public-facing digital content accessibility expose the county to legal risk and limit equitable access to government services for residents with disabilities.
The opportunity
Budget planning meetings scheduled for July/August 2026 create a near-term window to align funding and initiate phased implementation within existing procurement thresholds and cooperative purchasing agreements. Acting now allows the county to sequence remediation strategically, reducing compliance risk well ahead of the 2028 deadline.
