EOP Modernization and IPAWS Compliance Readiness
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The county's Emergency Operations Plan is unverified and overdue, with a mandatory five-year update deadline of September 2026 and unresolved IPAWS-OPEN compliance obligations requiring recurring notifications. Real-world incidents—including severe weather, flooding, and a courthouse closure—underscore the operational risk, and continued grant eligibility is directly tied to EOP compliance status.
The opportunity
The September 2026 EOP deadline and active HSGP funding create a non-deferrable, near-term action window aligned with FY2027 budget planning already underway. ARPA-funded priorities for a new Emergency Management Facility and Remote Operations Centers further strengthen the case for advancing this project now to protect public safety and preserve grant eligibility.
Web Accessibility & Digital Content Compliance (WCAG 2.1 Level AA)
Digital Accessibility · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The county faces a non-discretionary internal DOJ compliance deadline of April 24, 2026, and a federal rule deadline of April 26, 2027, to meet WCAG 2.1 Level AA standards. Existing public-facing digital content—including inaccessible PDFs—and acknowledged gaps in the current accessibility solution create legal exposure and inequitable barriers to resident services.
The opportunity
With the April 2026 internal deadline imminent and FY2027 budget planning already underway, the window to act is narrow. Remediating accessibility gaps now reduces legal liability, advances equitable public access, and aligns with active budget cycles and ARPA-funded technology modernization initiatives.

Discuss this project →Cybersecurity Operations & Credential Security Modernization
Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The county maintains a cybersecurity and password security policy but lacks documented compliance audits and enforcing technology for credential and endpoint security. Active managed security operations investment and existing MDR and vulnerability management tools leave gaps in credential management and endpoint protection that elevate operational and data risk.
The opportunity
ARPA-funded technology modernization resources and the BJA FY 2026 JAG Local Formula grant provide direct, accessible funding paths for cybersecurity expansion. Acting within the current fiscal cycle aligns investment with active budget planning and reduces compliance and breach risk for county operations and residents.
IT Endpoint Management & Operations Modernization
IT Modernization · Endpoint Operations
High Priority
About this project
The county's legacy endpoint management platform is straining under growing infrastructure complexity, including a $4.425M internet service investment and $7.6M in increased IT operating expenses. An open staffing position in operations further underscores the need for modern tooling to maintain service continuity and reduce administrative burden on IT staff.
The opportunity
Active ARPA-funded modernization initiatives ($5.9M) and ongoing FY2027 budget planning create a clear procurement window for endpoint management improvements. Cooperative purchasing agreements are in place, streamlining procurement and enabling the county to act quickly within the current funding cycle.
Fleet Safety & Video Telematics Modernization
Fleet Safety · Public Safety Technology
High Priority
About this project
A fatal county vehicle accident in June 2025, multiple active liability lawsuits, and a negative Workers' Compensation Self-Insurance fund balance signal critical gaps in fleet safety. Existing GPS and in-car video capabilities have proven insufficient to prevent incidents or support legal defense.
The opportunity
The BJA FY 2026 JAG Local Formula grant presents a viable funding pathway for public safety fleet solutions, reducing reliance on general funds. Acting now addresses active litigation risk, strengthens operational accountability, and aligns with the county's current budget planning cycle.

Discuss this project →CAD/RMS & Public Safety IT Platform Replacement
Public Safety Technology · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The county's current CAD and RMS platform contract expires December 31, 2026, creating a firm, time-bound procurement decision point. A recent courthouse closure due to vehicle crash damage further highlights gaps in incident response and operational continuity that a modernized platform must address.
The opportunity
FY2027 budget workshops are already underway, and the BJA FY 2026 JAG grant presents a viable funding pathway for public safety IT replacement. Acting within the current planning cycle ensures continuity of dispatch and records operations without service disruption to residents.
