Cybersecurity & Identity Access Management Compliance
Cybersecurity · CJIS Compliance
High Priority
About this project
A July 2026 cybersecurity incident exposed critical gaps in password policy, multi-factor authentication, and CJIS audit controls, with no verified credential or access management currently in place. Mandatory annual cybersecurity training certification and CJIS requirements create immediate remediation obligations and elevate operational and public safety risk.
The opportunity
A positive budget environment — including higher-than-expected General Fund revenue and dedicated IT and public safety capital allocations — supports near-term procurement, and cooperative purchasing vehicles are available to accelerate acquisition. Acting within the current fiscal cycle addresses active compliance mandates and reduces exposure from the recent incident before the next audit cycle.

Discuss this project →Emergency Operations Plan & Mass Notification Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The city lacks a documented Emergency Operations Plan and has experienced a recent flash flood, exposing critical preparedness gaps. Mass notification performance is undocumented, and the current regional system may not fully meet standalone operational or compliance requirements.
The opportunity
Recent flood incidents and identified compliance gaps create immediate urgency to formalize emergency preparedness. Increased public safety capital allocations and available grant pathways support action within the current fiscal cycle, reducing operational risk and strengthening community resilience.

Web Accessibility · Digital Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The city faces a defined 2028 mandate to meet WCAG 2.1 Level AA web accessibility standards, ensuring equitable digital access for all residents. The existing content management system and the active East TX Digital Connector Program create a timely, structured path toward compliance.
The opportunity
The 2028 compliance window and an active regional digital initiative provide a clear, funded framework to act within the current planning cycle. Addressing accessibility now reduces legal and compliance exposure while improving equitable service delivery for all community members.

Discuss this project →Endpoint Modernization and IT Lifecycle Refresh
IT Modernization · Endpoint Management
High Priority
About this project
The city has an active computer replacement program with $44K in confirmed capital allocation, yet an IT budget overage signals that demand is outpacing current resources. Aging endpoints create operational risk, particularly given the city's law enforcement software environment and recent cybersecurity pressures.
The opportunity
Capital funding is already allocated and the initiative is underway, making this an immediate procurement opportunity aligned with the current fiscal cycle. Texas cooperative purchasing vehicles can reduce procurement cycle time and administrative burden, enabling faster deployment and stronger stewardship of public IT dollars.

Discuss this project →Police Fleet Modernization and Telematics Standardization
Public Safety · Fleet Management
High Priority
About this project
An active $278k police fleet replacement program is underway, but telematics coverage across the fleet is inconsistent and unverified, creating general liability exposure. Standardizing vehicle monitoring is a proactive safety and accountability measure ahead of broader fleet deployment.
The opportunity
Funded capital budget is available now, and Texas cooperative purchasing channels enable fast, compliant procurement without a lengthy bid cycle. Acting within the current fiscal window ensures telematics coverage aligns with new vehicle deployment and reduces liability risk proactively.
