Emergency Alert & Mass Notification System Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The current mass notification posture is fragmented, with ambiguity across legacy systems and an existing subscription under review, while Hurricane Helene exposed critical communication and access gaps. NIMS adoption and fire reporting mandates add compliance urgency to an already overdue modernization need.
The opportunity
This initiative is budget-approved and designated a top strategic priority, with emergency equipment and disaster recovery infrastructure grants providing additional funding pathways. Acting within the current renewal cycle reduces operational risk and strengthens community-wide emergency response readiness.

Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The department's Emergency Operations Plan is approximately 10 years old and overdue for update, leaving critical communication and access vulnerabilities unaddressed — gaps made visible during Hurricane Helene. NIMS adoption compliance mandates and fire reporting requirements reinforce the urgency of formalizing a modernized plan.
The opportunity
Real-world disaster exposure and overdue compliance status create strong justification for near-term action. Available grant funding tied to emergency equipment and disaster recovery infrastructure can offset costs, and an established emergency management budget signals financial readiness to act within the current fiscal cycle.

IT Modernization · Cybersecurity & Identity Governance
High Priority
About this project
The 2026 Modernizing Municipal Infrastructure program is an active initiative targeting device management and identity/access control improvements. Despite a mature IT environment, the absence of documented password security mandates signals a measurable gap in identity governance that elevates operational and compliance risk.
The opportunity
The 2026 program provides a defined procurement timeline, and a planned cybersecurity modernization effort indicates near-term budget allocation is already underway. Advancing this project aligns with the current fiscal cycle, supports responsible stewardship of public IT investments, and closes documented identity governance gaps before they become liabilities.
Website Rebuild & ADA/WCAG Accessibility Compliance
Web Accessibility · Digital Modernization
High Priority
About this project
An active website rebuild is underway alongside a legal obligation to meet ADA/WCAG accessibility standards, creating both an infrastructure and compliance imperative. Gaps in the current platform's ability to serve all residents equitably expose the entity to legal risk and undermine public-facing service delivery.
The opportunity
The convergence of a planned rebuild and an active accessibility mandate creates a time-sensitive window to address both needs in a single procurement cycle. Acting now reduces legal exposure, improves equitable access for all residents, and aligns with current digital content management renewal timelines.
Fleet & Asset Management Modernization
Fleet Management · Public Safety Infrastructure
High Priority
About this project
The department manages a large, high-value fleet alongside a near-term fire engine procurement ($984k budgeted) and a new station build ($755k), adding significant infrastructure complexity. Without integrated asset management, tracking, maintenance, and lifecycle oversight across an expanding fleet creates operational and fiscal risk.
The opportunity
Approved capital investments in fire apparatus and station infrastructure create a natural entry point for fleet telematics and asset management modernization in the current budget cycle. Cooperative purchasing vehicles are already in use, reducing procurement friction and accelerating time to deployment.
