Law Enforcement Fleet Telematics & Driver Safety Modernization
Fleet Safety · Public Safety Technology
High Priority
About this project
A recent high-profile police vehicle incident has drawn media scrutiny and exposed gaps in law enforcement fleet oversight, including high-risk intervention monitoring. The police fleet operates separately from public works, creating a distinct need for dash cameras, telematics, and driver safety systems within the law enforcement inventory.
The opportunity
JAG grant funding explicitly supports fleet telematics and law enforcement information systems, and an August 2026 public-safety millage renewal alongside a $56.9M police headquarters bond define a clear, time-sensitive procurement window. Acting now aligns with available funding, addresses documented safety risk, and supports public accountability outcomes.
Emergency Management & Preparedness Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
Critical preparedness gaps — including uncertain Emergency Operations Plan currency, no documented HSEEP-style exercises, and unknown mass notification contract status — leave the city exposed. Recent declared emergencies and ongoing NIMS compliance obligations underscore the operational and regulatory risk to residents and first responders.
The opportunity
Active grant windows, including HSGP and EMPG, directly fund emergency management improvements and align with the current fiscal planning cycle. Addressing preparedness gaps now reduces compliance risk, strengthens continuity of operations, and positions the city to leverage available public-safety funding before deadlines pass.
Mass Notification System Renewal and Upgrade
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The city's mass notification contract renewal timeline is unknown, creating a planning gap that puts reliable public alerting and staff communications at risk. Recent declared emergencies—including a water main break and severe weather events—underscore the operational consequences of any lapse in notification capability.
The opportunity
The August 2026 public-safety millage renewal and active bond planning create a defined procurement window to advance this initiative alongside broader emergency management improvements. Grant programs aligned with emergency preparedness may offset costs, and acting within the current fiscal cycle supports continuity and NIMS compliance.
Web Accessibility & Digital Portal Compliance
Digital Accessibility · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
Public-facing digital portals have identified accessibility gaps that restrict resident access and create legal exposure under DOJ Title II WCAG 2.1 Level AA mandates. A court-established compliance deadline of April 26, 2027 makes remediation a non-negotiable operational and legal priority.
The opportunity
The fixed April 2027 deadline creates a defined implementation window, making early action critical to avoid legal liability and service disruption. Addressing accessibility gaps now supports equitable resident access, aligns with current fiscal planning cycles, and may qualify for state or federal funding assistance.
Endpoint Security and Credential Management Modernization
Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
No dedicated endpoint management or credential management solution is currently in place, leaving the city's IT environment exposed to unauthorized access and security incidents. Internal password policies exist but lack enforcement tooling, creating measurable cybersecurity risk across municipal systems and staff.
The opportunity
An active Microsoft ELA renewal signals open IT budget engagement, and JAG grant eligibility for information systems offers a viable funding path with an upcoming deadline. Addressing these gaps now reduces audit exposure, strengthens compliance posture, and aligns with the current fiscal and procurement window.
Police Headquarters Capital Technology Integration
Public Safety Infrastructure · Capital Project Planning
High Priority
About this project
A $56.9 million bond is funding a new police headquarters, requiring procurement of IT, security, and public safety technology systems as part of the capital build-out. Gaps in fleet oversight, emergency preparedness, and cybersecurity controls elevate operational and compliance risk during this transition.
The opportunity
Bond funding and a public-safety millage renewal create a defined, time-sensitive procurement window aligned with construction and fit-out timelines. Acting now ensures technology systems are integrated by design, eligible grant opportunities are captured, and public safety outcomes are protected from day one.
