EOP Development & Mass Notification Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The city lacks a publicly documented Emergency Operations Plan—a Texas state mandate—and has no dedicated Emergency Management Coordinator, while existing warning sirens have documented reliability concerns. These gaps create significant compliance exposure under NIMS adoption requirements and leave residents without dependable emergency alerting infrastructure.
The opportunity
The active budget cycle includes funding for warning siren replacement and public safety technology, and federal grants such as HSGP and EMPG are directly applicable to close these preparedness gaps. A leadership transition creates a timely opening to advance new priorities and align emergency management investments with compliance and community safety outcomes.
Warning Siren Replacement & Infrastructure Upgrade
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
Documented maintenance and reliability concerns with existing emergency sirens create a direct public safety risk during critical events. A multi-year capital plan for siren replacement is underway, and Texas emergency management compliance mandates—including EOP review and NIMS adoption—add regulatory urgency to resolving this infrastructure gap.
The opportunity
An active budget cycle and increased Fire Department spending create a strong procurement window for this project. Federal grant programs aligned with emergency preparedness infrastructure are available, and advancing this initiative now supports compliance, community safety, and responsible stewardship of public funds.
Endpoint Management & Cybersecurity Modernization
IT Modernization · Cybersecurity
High Priority
About this project
The city is actively investing in IT and cybersecurity modernization across endpoint management, software support, and backup capabilities, with documented budget increases in police and fire computer-system maintenance. Cybersecurity controls remain partial, leaving operational gaps that elevate risk to city systems and public services.
The opportunity
An active budget cycle and leadership transition create a timely window to address remaining cybersecurity gaps and consolidate endpoint management. Federal grant programs such as HSGP and EMPG may offset costs, and cooperative purchasing vehicles can streamline procurement within the current fiscal year.
Fleet Telematics & Vehicle Replacement Integration
Fleet Management · Public Safety Technology
High Priority
About this project
The city's aging police vehicle fleet lacks dash cams and telematics, creating an evidence and driver-monitoring gap that elevates liability and accountability risk. A multi-year capital plan for vehicle replacements is underway, making now the critical window to integrate telematics from the outset.
The opportunity
An active budget cycle and ongoing grant-seeking for public safety technology create a structured, near-term procurement entry point. Embedding telematics during planned vehicle replacement maximizes cost efficiency and may align with available federal funding such as the PROTECT grant program.

Web Accessibility · Digital Equity
High Priority
About this project
The city has committed to WCAG 2.0 Level A and AA standards, with a mandated WCAG 2.1 Level AA deadline of April 2028. Failure to meet this requirement creates legal exposure and limits equitable public access to city services and information.
The opportunity
The April 2028 deadline creates a firm compliance driver, and early procurement planning ensures sufficient time for implementation and testing. Addressing accessibility now aligns with the active budget cycle and supports equitable service delivery for all residents.

Public Safety · Smart City Technology
High Priority
About this project
The city is actively pursuing grant funding to expand public safety technology, including license plate recognition, drone systems, and PTZ cameras. An active budget cycle and demonstrated technology maturity signal readiness to procure, while gaps in coverage and situational awareness create operational risk for residents and first responders.
The opportunity
An active grant-seeking posture and current budget cycle create a near-term window to secure funding for expanded surveillance and situational awareness infrastructure. Acting now aligns procurement with available federal and state funding pathways, reducing local cost burden while strengthening community safety outcomes.
