Emergency Communications Infrastructure Resilience & Mass Notification Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
A cybersecurity incident against the current mass notification provider caused a documented continuity failure, exposing a critical gap in emergency communications infrastructure. EOP currency and compliance cannot be publicly validated, compounding preparedness risk for residents and first responders reliant on timely, reliable alerts.
The opportunity
FY27 capital funding for EOC upgrades is active, with a September 15, 2026 budget decision point creating a near-term window to act. Leadership transitions in public safety oversight present an opportunity to advance a resilient, GIS-integrated replacement that restores continuity and strengthens community preparedness.

Digital Accessibility · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The department faces a legally binding mandate to achieve WCAG 2.1 AA compliance by April 2027, with PDF document remediation identified as an immediate gap. Failure to comply creates legal exposure and restricts equitable resident access to public digital services.
The opportunity
The FY27 budget decision point in September 2026 is the critical window to secure funding before the April 2027 deadline. Acting now allows sufficient time for remediation, reduces legal risk, and ensures all residents can access public information and services equitably.

Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The department has closed an RFP for a fleet key management system and made recent GPS tracking investments, signaling active modernization. Deferred vehicle replacements and unquantified insurance claim exposure present ongoing financial and operational risk to public safety services.
The opportunity
FY27 capital budget includes explicit funding for vehicle replacements, creating a clear and near-term procurement pathway. Acting within the current budget cycle reduces liability exposure and strengthens fleet accountability across public safety operations.

Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
Ongoing cybersecurity mandates and a recent mass-notification system failure have exposed gaps in IT infrastructure resilience, signaling an evolving and insufficiently hardened security posture. Active renewals of security tools indicate progress, but systemic vulnerabilities remain unaddressed, elevating operational and compliance risk across city services.
The opportunity
The FY27 budget includes dedicated capital for disaster recovery and server infrastructure, and the JAG Program offers a direct funding path for cybersecurity and IT management improvements. The September 15, 2026 budget decision point creates a near-term window to secure investment and reduce institutional risk before the next fiscal cycle closes.

Discuss this project →Strengthen School & Facility Situational Awareness
Public Safety · Emergency Management
High Priority
About this project
Schools and public facilities lack a unified situational awareness platform, limiting real-time coordination during critical incidents. This gap elevates operational risk for staff, students, and residents, and undermines broader emergency coordination objectives tied to EOC readiness.
The opportunity
Proposed FY27 budget increases for Police, Fire, and EOC capital improvements create a timely funding umbrella for this initiative. Cooperative purchasing memberships streamline procurement, enabling faster deployment and stronger public safety outcomes before the next budget cycle closes.
