Emergency Operations Plan Development & Mass Notification Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The department lacks a locally owned Emergency Operations Plan, and compliance mandates require annual EOP review and documentation. Centralized county-level emergency management leadership and potential coverage gaps in the current mass notification system elevate operational risk to residents and staff during incidents.
The opportunity
An active GLO-funded resilient communities program and a September 2026 federal grant deadline create a near-term funding pathway with $68,626 already allocated to emergency management and public safety technology. Addressing these gaps now strengthens local response capacity, satisfies compliance mandates, and aligns with the FY 2026–2027 budget decision window.

Cybersecurity Compliance · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The department lacks a centralized credential management solution and faces a hard August 31, 2026 cybersecurity training certification deadline. Without action, the agency risks non-compliance, credential vulnerabilities, and exposure of sensitive public safety systems and data.
The opportunity
FY 2025–2026 IT and cybersecurity modernization is budget-approved, and FY 2026–2027 proposed allocations for security systems and equipment create an immediate procurement window. The BJA JAG grant—with a September 2026 deadline—is eligible to fund information systems and technology improvements, reducing local cost burden while advancing compliance and operational security.

IT Modernization · Cybersecurity
High Priority
About this project
The department's IT and cybersecurity modernization initiative is budget-approved for FY 2025–2026, with proposed FY 2026–2027 allocations for computer equipment and no identified IT management partner currently in place. An annual cybersecurity training certification deadline and active technology spend of over $205,000 underscore both the operational need and compliance exposure.
The opportunity
The active FY 2026–2027 budget decision window and eligibility under the BJA JAG grant for information systems and technology create a near-term funding pathway with minimal local match burden. Acting within the current fiscal cycle ensures continuity of public safety operations and positions the department ahead of approaching compliance deadlines.

Discuss this project →Web Accessibility & Digital Portal Compliance
Web Accessibility · Digital Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The department's public-facing website is subject to a WCAG 2.1 Level AA compliance mandate with an April 26, 2028 deadline. Unresolved accessibility gaps create legal exposure and limit equitable access to government services for residents with disabilities.
The opportunity
The April 2028 deadline creates a defined planning window, and the FY 2026–2027 budget cycle presents a timely opportunity to fund remediation before gaps compound. Proactive investment reduces legal risk and ensures digital services remain accessible and compliant for all residents.
Texas BuyBoard Purchasing Cooperative
Discuss this project →Fleet Telematics and Vehicle Safety Modernization
Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The department faces a 61.4% increase in proposed police auto liability insurance while actively replacing vehicles flagged for poor pursuit maneuverability and braking. The absence of fleet dash cameras and telematics leaves the agency without video evidence, driver behavior data, or the monitoring tools needed to manage risk and liability.
The opportunity
Active vehicle replacement and a documented safety gap create a timely case for telematics adoption within the current budget cycle, with cooperative purchasing available to streamline procurement. Addressing this now supports officer safety, reduces insurance exposure, and strengthens public accountability through verifiable incident documentation.
