EOP Modernization and Community Resilience Planning
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The City's Emergency Operations Plan has an unverifiable review history, undocumented mass-notification governance, and active flood and drought exposure — gaps underscored by a recent EOP activation for a rain and flooding event. Compliance mandates require annual EOP review, a 5-year update cycle, and NIMS adoption, elevating both operational and regulatory risk.
The opportunity
A secured $220,000 Resilient Communities grant creates an immediate, funded procurement window aligned with the active FY 2026–2027 budget cycle. Acting now addresses overdue compliance requirements, strengthens community resilience, and ensures designated public safety funds are deployed before the planning window closes.

Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The City operates a fragmented emergency notification ecosystem with undocumented governance, limiting unified alerting capability during critical events. This preparedness gap—alongside overdue EOP review requirements and active flood and drought exposure—poses significant operational and compliance risk to residents and staff.
The opportunity
A $220,000 resilience planning grant and the active FY 2026–2027 budget development window create a timely opening to consolidate notification infrastructure and close documented preparedness gaps. Acting now aligns with compliance mandates, strengthens community resilience, and positions the City to maximize available public funding.

Public Safety IT · Cybersecurity Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The City has budgeted funds in FY 2025-2026 for IT and cybersecurity upgrades, with a new Police Chief onboarded in March 2026 prompting review of existing systems. While no specific cybersecurity mandate is documented, the absence of a formal framework creates operational and data-security risk for law enforcement operations.
The opportunity
The BJA FY 2026 Edward Byrne Memorial JAG Program offers an aligned external funding path for law enforcement IT and information systems, complementing already-allocated local budget. The active FY 2026-2027 budget development cycle and new departmental leadership create a timely window to advance this investment.

Discuss this project →Web Accessibility & Digital Portal Compliance
Web Accessibility · Digital Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The City's public-facing website must achieve WCAG 2.1 Level AA compliance by 2028, with identified accessibility gaps representing an active mandate. Failure to remediate risks excluding residents with disabilities from essential services and exposes the City to compliance consequences.
The opportunity
The 2028 deadline creates a defined window for staged remediation, and the adopted FY 2025–2026 budget already includes a website maintenance allocation, lowering procurement barriers. Acting within the current and next budget cycles enables cost-effective, phased progress while aligning with approved funding.
Fleet Telematics & Vehicle Safety Modernization
Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The City lacks documented vehicle telematics across its fleet, and a historical unsafe-driving complaint highlights an unaddressed safety gap. With over $350,000 in recent police vehicle capital expenditures and fleet modernization listed as an active strategic initiative, the absence of telematics infrastructure represents a growing operational and liability risk.
The opportunity
A newly appointed Police Chief and an active FY 2026–2027 budget cycle create a timely window for fleet safety investment, with prior grant-funded vehicle purchases establishing a precedent for externally supported procurement. Cooperative purchasing agreements already in use by the City can streamline acquisition and reduce administrative burden.
