Emergency Operations Plan Verification & Compliance Readiness
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The department's Emergency Operations Plan remains unverified, creating a critical preparedness gap and jeopardizing eligibility for federal preparedness grants. NIMS implementation mandates require current, documented planning, and recent disaster declarations have further elevated the urgency of formalizing and validating the EOP.
The opportunity
With $66,854 in dedicated emergency management and public safety tech funding already allocated and a June 30, 2027 fiscal year-end spending deadline, the window to act is defined. EMPG and HSGP grant cycles in Fall 2026 and Spring 2027 offer additional funding pathways for eligible preparedness initiatives.
Mass Notification & Alert Continuity Replacement
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
A cybersecurity incident disabled the county's legacy mass notification platform, eliminating reliable emergency alert capability for staff and residents. The resulting operational gap, combined with NIMS compliance requirements and an unverified EOP, elevates both public safety and federal grant eligibility risk.
The opportunity
A dedicated public safety tech budget and active EMPG and HSGP grant windows with Fall 2026/Spring 2027 deadlines create immediate financial capacity to act. Replacing the disabled platform now restores emergency communications, supports NIMS compliance, and protects continued access to federal preparedness funding ahead of the June 2027 fiscal year close.
Cybersecurity Resilience & Incident Recovery
Cybersecurity Resilience · Public Safety Technology
High Priority
About this project
A cybersecurity incident disabled the department's legacy mass-notification platform, exposing critical gaps in infrastructure resilience and alert continuity. Without a replacement solution, the department remains vulnerable to future attacks that could disrupt public safety operations and NIMS compliance obligations.
The opportunity
The incident has created executive-level urgency ahead of the FY2027 close, with an established IT and public safety tech budget available to act. Grant programs such as EMPG and HSGP, with anticipated Fall 2026/Spring 2027 windows, offer eligible funding paths to restore and strengthen emergency notification capabilities.
Fire Service SCBA Equipment Replacement and Readiness Upgrade
Public Safety · Emergency Preparedness
High Priority
About this project
The fire department has prioritized replacing aging SCBA air packs as a critical life-safety initiative, with initial funding already approved and procurement actively underway. Alongside this, opioid abatement funds have been allocated for AED procurement, reflecting a broader commitment to frontline emergency equipment readiness.
The opportunity
With funding approved and a June 30, 2027 fiscal year-end deadline, procurement timing is imminent and well-positioned. Grant programs such as EMPG and HSGP offer additional funding pathways for adjacent emergency preparedness investments, making this an optimal window to advance comprehensive readiness goals.
