Emergency Preparedness Plan Update & Mass Notification Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The district faces unverified EOP status, unknown mass notification contract details, and no named emergency management coordinator — gaps amplified by the county's severe weather exposure. FY26 budget reflects a $164K increase for mass notification maintenance, signaling recognized risk and readiness to act.
The opportunity
The EOP update is budget-approved and in motion, with an identifiable contract renewal window creating a timely entry point. The BRIC Grant Program and Edward Byrne Memorial JAG Program offer potential funding alignment to advance preparedness outcomes this fiscal cycle.

Cybersecurity Compliance · Identity Management
High Priority
About this project
Texas state cybersecurity mandates require password security and training compliance by August 31, 2026, and no password management solution has been identified in the current environment. This gap creates direct compliance exposure, and FY26 budget allocations—including $93K designated for cybersecurity software—signal that resources are in place to act.
The opportunity
The August 31, 2026 compliance deadline establishes a firm procurement timeline with FY26 budget already allocated. The State and Local Cybersecurity Grant Program (SLCGP) and Edward Byrne Memorial JAG Program offer supplemental funding paths, reducing local cost burden while closing a critical compliance and operational security gap.
Web Accessibility & WCAG Compliance Modernization
Web Accessibility · ADA Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The district has no current plan to meet the federal ADA/WCAG 2.1 Level AA website accessibility mandate, with a compliance deadline of April 26, 2028. Without action, the district faces legal exposure and risks excluding residents from equitable access to public digital services.
The opportunity
Upcoming IT and security contract renewals in late 2026 and 2027 create a practical window to bundle accessibility modernization into broader digital refresh efforts. Acting now allows the district to scope, procure, and remediate ahead of the federal deadline while aligning with the current fiscal cycle.

IT Modernization · Cybersecurity
High Priority
About this project
Endpoint monitoring and multi-factor authentication contracts are approaching renewal in late 2026–2027, creating a critical window to assess coverage gaps and strengthen security posture. Active Texas cybersecurity compliance mandates and an expanded FY26 cybersecurity budget signal both regulatory pressure and organizational readiness to act.
The opportunity
Dedicated FY26 cybersecurity funding and alignment with SLCGP and JAG grant programs support near-term investment with reduced local burden. Addressing renewals proactively reduces operational risk, strengthens compliance standing, and positions the organization ahead of the upcoming fiscal cycle.
Fleet Telematics & Sustainable Fleet Modernization
Fleet Management · Public Infrastructure
High Priority
About this project
The district's active Electric Vehicles and Sustainable Fleet Program signals a strategic commitment to fleet electrification and oversight, yet gaps remain in contractor visibility, evidence documentation, and insurance transparency. These risks, while not yet crisis-level, expose the district to operational and liability vulnerabilities if left unaddressed.
The opportunity
The Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grant Program offers an eligible funding path for fleet-related modernization, aligning with the district's stated initiative and mid-term budget planning. Acting within the current fiscal cycle positions the district to close oversight gaps proactively and strengthen stewardship of public assets.
