IT Infrastructure & Cybersecurity Modernization
IT Modernization · Cybersecurity Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The entity is operating end-of-life servers, network switches, and firewalls alongside outdated email security and network management software. Active Texas cybersecurity reporting mandates and water-sector security obligations create immediate compliance urgency, while a fragmented security toolset elevates operational and continuity risk.
The opportunity
Over $600K in awarded cybersecurity grants and substantial capital outlays in the proposed FY 2026–2027 budget confirm near-term funding and procurement readiness. Acting within this cycle addresses critical infrastructure gaps, satisfies state compliance mandates, and reduces risk to essential public utility services.
Web Accessibility & Digital Services Compliance
Web Accessibility · Digital Services Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The entity faces an active WCAG 2.1 Level AA mandate requiring full web accessibility across public-facing portals by 2027, alongside an ongoing digital utility billing initiative. A dedicated $33K grant has been accepted for ADA compliance software, confirming both the regulatory urgency and available funding.
The opportunity
The 2027 compliance deadline creates clear, near-term urgency to act within the current budget cycle. Accepted grant funding reduces procurement barriers, and strong FY appropriations for ADA compliance software support a streamlined path to implementation that protects public access and reduces legal exposure.

Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
A recently approved mass emergency communication system is underway, but a split notification ecosystem and the absence of a documented Emergency Operations Plan or continuity plan leave critical preparedness gaps. Water-sector security obligations and the lack of documented participation in jurisdiction-wide exercises elevate operational and compliance risk.
The opportunity
Over $800K in awarded emergency management grants provides confirmed funding to close preparedness gaps now, ahead of the upcoming fiscal cycle. Formalizing an EOP and consolidating communication platforms strengthens continuity, supports water-sector compliance obligations, and improves coordinated response outcomes for residents.

Fleet Management · Public Works Operations
High Priority
About this project
The entity operates heavy vehicles without a telematics solution in place, creating visibility gaps in fleet safety, utilization, and maintenance tracking. A fleet asset management initiative has received budget approval as a strategic priority, signaling organizational readiness to address these operational gaps.
The opportunity
Certifications of intent for grants eligible to fund fleet safety and telematics have been identified, offering a potential low-impact funding pathway aligned with the current budget cycle. Cooperative purchasing agreements are in place, enabling streamlined procurement and faster time-to-value for public works operations.

Emergency Management · Water Sector Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The utility lacks a publicly documented Emergency Operations Plan, continuity plan, or verified participation in jurisdiction-wide exercises, reflecting moderate preparedness gaps. Water-sector security obligations further elevate the compliance and operational risk of remaining without formal response documentation.
The opportunity
Over $800K in awarded emergency management grants provides immediate funding capacity to close foundational preparedness gaps. Acting within the current budget cycle aligns with water-sector compliance obligations and reduces operational and regulatory exposure before the next review period.
