Emergency Operations Plan Modernization and Governance
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The city's Emergency Operations Plan is approximately 10 years old with no documented review date, remediation tracker, or confirmed governance process, leaving the department exposed amid recurring flood and severe weather events including Hurricane Helene impacts. This gap creates compounding operational and compliance risk for staff, residents, and continuity of public safety services.
The opportunity
The active FY2026–27 budget cycle, new police department leadership, and an established willingness to invest in public safety technology create a near-term window to address long-overdue EOP governance. With nearly $1 million of existing IT spend allocated to emergency management and public safety, budget capacity is in place to act within the current fiscal cycle.

School Safety · Emergency Management
High Priority
About this project
Schools face a hard compliance deadline of June 1, 2026 for Critical Incident Mapping, with an active RFP already issued and funding still being secured. Failure to meet this mandate elevates operational, legal, and safety risk for students, staff, and first responders.
The opportunity
The active RFP and June 2026 deadline create an immediate procurement window with little room for delay. The FY2026–27 budget approval and the city's established pattern of investing in public safety technology signal strong near-term decision-making conditions. Cooperative purchasing agreements already in use locally may offer an efficient, compliant procurement path. Acting now ensures schools meet the mandate, strengthens first-responder coordination, and protects students and staff before the compliance deadline passes.

Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
Current AVL tracking covers 97 vehicles but leaves critical gaps in safety oversight and evidence integrity — exposed by a fatal garbage truck accident and a confirmed incident of in-car video tampering by personnel. These events create significant legal liability and operational risk for the department.
The opportunity
With FY2026–27 budget approved, new police leadership in place, and an institutional commitment to public safety technology already demonstrated, the timing is favorable to close fleet safety gaps. Cooperative purchasing agreements may provide a streamlined procurement path aligned with current fiscal planning.

Discuss this project →Web Accessibility & Digital Portal Compliance Remediation
Digital Accessibility · ADA Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The city has a stated ADA commitment, but documented WCAG conformance for its public-facing digital properties has not been established, creating potential legal and compliance exposure. Ongoing municipal website modernization presents a timely opportunity to embed accessibility standards before remediation costs escalate.
The opportunity
With FY2026–27 budget approval in place and an active website modernization effort underway, a phased accessibility remediation effort can be scoped within existing IT investment capacity. Addressing conformance gaps now reduces liability risk and ensures equitable digital access for all residents.
