Emergency Management & Mass Notification Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
Documented gaps in emergency operations continuity, mass-notification enrollment, and cross-jurisdiction coordination—exposed by a recent flood incident—present serious public safety risks. Mandates for NIMS compliance, EOP planning, and PIO certification add regulatory urgency to an already operationally vulnerable posture.
The opportunity
Multiple federal grant opportunities aligned to emergency communications and alert systems are pending award in late 2026, offering a near-term funding path with the FY2027 budget hearing in September 2026 as a critical decision window. Acting now positions the jurisdiction to secure funding, close compliance gaps, and strengthen community-wide emergency response before the next severe weather season.
Web Accessibility & ADA Compliance Remediation
ADA Compliance · Digital Accessibility
High Priority
About this project
The city faces a documented mandate to achieve WCAG 2.1 Level AA web accessibility by April 26, 2027, with an active ADA Self Evaluation & Transition Plan closing July 2026. Unresolved accessibility gaps create legal exposure and limit equitable public access to city services for residents with disabilities.
The opportunity
The ADA Transition Plan defines a concrete remediation window through mid-2027, and the FY2027 budget hearing in September 2026 is a critical funding decision point. Acting now aligns remediation efforts with budget cycles, reduces legal risk, and ensures equitable digital service delivery ahead of the compliance deadline.
Fleet Safety Technology Modernization for Emergency Services
Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The department operates a 24/7 emergency fleet including newly acquired high-value fire apparatus, yet lacks dash cameras, telematics, and formal incident review processes. These gaps create evidence, accountability, and asset protection risks for a fleet designated as a top departmental modernization priority.
The opportunity
Capital approvals for fleet vehicles are reflected in the proposed FY2027 budget, with a key hearing in September 2026, creating a defined window for technology investment. Cooperative purchasing agreements already in active use can accelerate procurement and reduce administrative burden on staff.

Discuss this project →Citywide Cybersecurity Modernization & Identity Protection
Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
An active FY25 cybersecurity modernization initiative has exposed gaps in identity and privileged access management, increasing the city's exposure to credential-based threats. Existing integrations and an incumbent identity solution may no longer meet evolving security requirements, elevating operational and compliance risk.
The opportunity
Emergency management-aligned grant programs (EMPG, HSGP) extend to IT and cybersecurity investments, broadening funding eligibility ahead of the FY2027 budget cycle. Acting now aligns with current leadership momentum and positions the city to close identity protection gaps before the next budget hearing in September 2026.
