Web Accessibility & ADA Compliance Modernization
Web Accessibility · ADA Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The entity's web presence is fragmented across two platforms, creating consolidation risk and barriers to equitable public access. A budget-approved initiative targets WCAG 2.1 Level AA compliance with a hard deadline of Spring 2028, requiring coordinated action across platforms to avoid federal non-compliance.
The opportunity
With FY 2026–2027 budget already allocated and a Spring 2028 compliance deadline approaching, the window to plan, procure, and implement is narrowing. Acting within the current fiscal cycle ensures sufficient time for remediation, reduces legal exposure, and supports equitable digital access for all residents.

Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The county faces unresolved preparedness gaps including an EOP of unknown age, unconfirmed mass notification capability, and recent tornado impacts — all while NIMS integration and CAD interoperability remain in progress. Without validated systems and a current EOP, operational continuity and mutual aid coordination are at elevated risk.
The opportunity
The Rural VFD Assistance Program grant presents a near-term funding window with an expected October 2026 deadline, offering a high cost-share rate for emergency communications and equipment. Budget increases already confirmed for communications and emergency-response capital lines signal active investment readiness, making this an ideal moment to close preparedness gaps and strengthen community resilience.

Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
Internal safety reviews have identified critical gaps in driving event visibility, apparatus reliability, and maintenance controls, while a historical incident has elevated liability exposure and increased P&C insurance costs. Budget-approved fleet replacements—including a new pumper and command vehicles—require integrated asset management to reduce operational and financial risk.
The opportunity
Fleet funding is secured in the current budget cycle and rising fuel costs provide additional fiscal justification for modernization. Addressing visibility and maintenance gaps now supports staff safety, reduces liability exposure, and aligns with cooperative procurement pathways that streamline acquisition.

Cybersecurity Compliance · Identity & Access Management
High Priority
About this project
The entity faces a Texas-mandated annual cybersecurity training deadline of August 31, 2026, alongside unmet credential and identity management needs. Concurrent IT and network modernization efforts signal broader security gaps that elevate operational and compliance risk across the organization.
The opportunity
The August 2026 compliance deadline creates immediate urgency, and the BJA JAG Program offers a potential funding pathway for cybersecurity and IT improvements through county coordination. Acting within the current fiscal cycle reduces audit exposure and advances security posture across modernizing infrastructure.

IT Modernization · Cybersecurity
High Priority
About this project
The entity is actively refreshing its network infrastructure but lacks an identified endpoint management solution, indicating a legacy gap that elevates cybersecurity risk. Without visibility into all managed endpoints, the organization faces operational exposure and potential non-compliance with Texas annual cybersecurity training mandates.
The opportunity
Active IT modernization initiatives and an upcoming fiscal cycle create a timely entry point to address endpoint management gaps. The BJA JAG Program represents a potential funding pathway for eligible IT and cybersecurity improvements, reducing the local budget burden.
