Emergency Operations Plan Development
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
Monroe County lacks a current Emergency Operations Plan, with recurring incident exposure and no documented reviews, despite a state mandate requiring a formal plan and NIMS adoption for federal grant eligibility. The county's mass notification system carries an unknown contract status, compounding preparedness and compliance risk for residents and staff.
The opportunity
An existing $859,489 public allocation lists public-safety projects as eligible uses, offering a near-term funding pathway, while state compliance mandates and federal grant requirements create clear urgency to act within the current planning cycle.

Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The county currently operates a fragmented notification environment with two overlapping systems and unclear contract terms, creating gaps in reliable public alerting. Without a consolidated platform and a documented Emergency Operations Plan, the county faces compliance risk under state emergency management mandates and NIMS requirements tied to federal funding eligibility.
The opportunity
An existing budget allocation designates public-safety projects and IT upgrades as eligible uses, providing a near-term funding pathway. Cooperative purchasing options are available to streamline procurement and reduce administrative burden, making consolidation achievable within the current fiscal cycle.

Digital Accessibility · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
Monroe County faces a federally mandated ADA Title II web accessibility deadline of April 26, 2028, with potential liability exposure for non-compliance. The county's public-facing digital portal is externally managed, creating urgency to assess, remediate, and document conformance before the deadline.
The opportunity
The 2028 compliance window is defined and approaching, making now the right time to plan and budget remediation within the upcoming fiscal cycle. Proactive action reduces legal exposure, ensures equitable public access to county services, and aligns with the county's existing commitment to ADA information access.
Fleet Telematics Integration During Vehicle Replacement
Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
Monroe County is actively replacing fleet vehicles across multiple departments but has no telematics capabilities in place to monitor safety, utilization, or operational efficiency. Without visibility into fleet performance, the county faces unmanaged liability exposure and limited ability to demonstrate responsible stewardship of public assets.
The opportunity
The ongoing fleet replacement cycle creates a cost-effective window to embed telematics during acquisition rather than retrofitting later. Cooperative purchasing agreements may streamline procurement, and aligning this initiative with the current replacement timeline avoids duplicated costs in a constrained budget environment.
