EOP Review & Mass Notification System Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The county faces a potentially overdue Emergency Operations Plan review and an unresolved mass notification contract status, leaving critical preparedness gaps. Recent declared emergencies—including a water main break and a major disaster—underscore the operational risk of delayed action on reliable, documented emergency response capabilities.
The opportunity
The county's approved Hazard Mitigation Plan and funded EOC operations signal active investment, while the Homeland Security Grant Program (HSGP) deadline in July 2026 creates a near-term funding window. Addressing these gaps now strengthens community resilience, closes compliance exposure, and aligns with available state and federal emergency management resources.
Web Accessibility & Digital Document Compliance
Digital Accessibility · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The county faces binding mandates to meet WCAG 2.1 Level AA standards across public-facing digital portals and documents, with a hard compliance deadline of April 2026. Unresolved accessibility gaps create legal exposure and limit equitable public access to government services for residents with disabilities.
The opportunity
The April 2026 deadline creates immediate procurement urgency, leaving limited time for implementation and validation. Acting within the current fiscal cycle reduces legal risk, supports equitable service delivery, and leverages existing software investments to close compliance gaps efficiently.

Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The county is advancing IT modernization with a maturing identity and access management environment, but cybersecurity compliance remains underdeveloped—limited to basic password guidance—leaving critical gaps in credential management and endpoint security that expose public systems and data to risk.
The opportunity
Grant funding through COPS TEP and JAG, with deadlines in July 2026, provides direct paths to address cybersecurity gaps. The adopted FY2026–2027 budget reflects increased IT expenditures and growing federal and state grant revenues, supporting near-term action.

Discuss this project →Sheriff Scheduling System Replacement
Law Enforcement Technology · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
An active RFP issued in January 2026 signals an immediate, time-bound procurement for a Sheriff scheduling and dispatch technology replacement. Delays risk operational continuity for law enforcement staffing and scheduling functions critical to public safety service delivery.
The opportunity
The FY2026–2027 budget reflects increased Law Enforcement and IT expenditures, and an established cooperative purchasing relationship provides a streamlined procurement path. Acting within this active RFP window aligns with budget availability and reduces scheduling risk for county operations.

Discuss this project →Fleet Management & Traffic Signal Modernization
Fleet Operations · Public Infrastructure
High Priority
About this project
Fleet management and traffic signal modernization are active strategic initiatives, though no documented fleet-related incidents or high-urgency compliance mandates currently exist. Gaps in operational visibility and aging signal infrastructure present background risks to public safety and efficient service delivery.
The opportunity
JAG grant funding with a July 2026 deadline identifies fleet management as an eligible category, aligning with the county's FY2026–2027 increased expenditure budget. Addressing this now positions the county to leverage available funding before the window closes and supports long-term operational efficiency.
