Modernize Emergency Operations & Mass Notification
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The county's Emergency Operations Plan is unverified, its mass-notification platform is undocumented, and fragmented communications across emergency apps and 9-1-1/radio operations create critical coordination gaps. A major 2026 flood event activated the EOP and triggered emergency procurement, exposing the operational risk of an unconsolidated system.
The opportunity
Active AFG and FP&S grant applications, a current license renewal decision window, and strong existing emergency management budget allocation create a timely funding pathway. Addressing these gaps now reduces compliance and operational risk while improving coordinated response outcomes for residents and first responders.

Discuss this project →Cybersecurity Training & Endpoint Compliance Remediation
Cybersecurity Compliance · IT Infrastructure
High Priority
About this project
Cybersecurity training compliance deadlines have passed with verification still outstanding, and no documented password management or modern endpoint platform is in place. These gaps expose the county to credential compromise and infrastructure risk, undermining the security of public safety operations.
The opportunity
The BJA JAG grant, with an October 2026 deadline, offers a near-term funding pathway for cybersecurity remediation with streamlined procurement thresholds that support faster action. Addressing compliance gaps now reduces audit exposure and strengthens the security posture of critical public safety systems.

Discuss this project →Modernize Fleet Telematics & Transportation Safety
Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The county lacks a documented telematics system, with legacy and fragmented GPS infrastructure and recurring towing incidents signaling unaddressed fleet safety risks. Annual commercial vehicle inspection requirements and an active emergency-response mission underscore the urgent need for integrated GPS, dash cameras, and driver-behavior monitoring.
The opportunity
Applicable grant funding—including a FY2026 rural ambulance award and the PROTECT grant—supports near-term fleet safety procurement, with cooperative purchasing memberships simplifying the acquisition path. Acting within the current fiscal cycle reduces operational liability and strengthens the county's emergency-response readiness.

Discuss this project →Web Accessibility & Digital Portal Compliance
Web Accessibility · Digital Equity
High Priority
About this project
The county's public-facing website requires WCAG 2.1 Level AA compliance, and current gaps in the existing CMS and document accessibility create legal exposure and limit equitable resident access to public services. While the federal deadline extends to 2028, the mandate is active and unaddressed gaps carry ongoing risk.
The opportunity
The extended 2028 timeline creates a practical window for phased, budget-conscious remediation that aligns with upcoming fiscal planning cycles. Cooperative purchasing agreements may simplify procurement, and early action reduces legal risk while improving digital access for all residents.

Discuss this project →EMS Workforce & Staffing Infrastructure Modernization
Emergency Medical Services · Workforce Operations
High Priority
About this project
The county has secured a $126K grant to expand and sustain Fire Rescue EMS staffing capacity, signaling active investment in emergency medical services. Gaps in workforce infrastructure—including scheduling, training, and personnel management—pose operational risk to service delivery and response readiness.
The opportunity
Awarded grant funding creates an immediate budget window to address EMS operational tools and workforce systems before the fiscal cycle closes. Acting now ensures alignment with broader emergency management modernization goals and maximizes the impact of existing public safety investments.
