Mass Public Emergency Alerting System Replacement
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
A mass-notification system failure in April 2026 caused widespread public confusion, exposing critical gaps in the county's emergency alerting infrastructure. Leadership instability in Emergency Management and an overdue Emergency Operations Plan compound operational and compliance risk for residents and staff.
The opportunity
The 2026 budget includes a confirmed funding line for a new mass alerting system, and established cooperative purchasing vehicles are available to accelerate procurement. Federal grant programs aligned with emergency preparedness further reduce local cost burden, making this an optimal window to act.
CAD & 911 Workstation Infrastructure Modernization
Public Safety Technology · Emergency Communications
High Priority
About this project
Central Dispatch's aging CAD and 911 workstation infrastructure has reached end-of-life, and a July 2026 outage exposed the operational risk of continued deferral. Endpoint management gaps in the current environment further elevate the risk of service disruption to emergency communications staff and the public they serve.
The opportunity
FY 2026 capital funds are already appropriated for this replacement, reducing procurement barriers and enabling near-term action. The recent outage has created executive-level urgency, and additional grant paths for endpoint and infrastructure modernization support a fiscally responsible path forward aligned with current budget cycles.
Hazard Mitigation Plan Update and Compliance Renewal
Emergency Management · Grant Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The county's Hazard Mitigation Plan is overdue for a required update, creating NIMS compliance exposure and jeopardizing eligibility for federal preparedness funding. Leadership instability in emergency management compounds the risk of further delays, increasing operational and regulatory vulnerability.
The opportunity
Active alignment with HSGP and BRIC grant cycles creates a defined, time-sensitive funding window to complete this update at limited local cost. Acting now restores compliance, supports planned exercises, and positions the county to secure awards before the procurement window closes.
Web Accessibility & Digital Compliance Remediation
Digital Accessibility · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The county has a documented commitment to WCAG 2.0 A/AA standards, with an identified gap in meeting WCAG 2.1 requirements across public-facing web properties. Unresolved accessibility deficiencies create ongoing legal exposure and limit equitable access to government services for residents with disabilities.
The opportunity
Addressing accessibility compliance proactively reduces legal and reputational risk before findings escalate, and remediation efforts may align with upcoming fiscal planning cycles. Eligible funding pathways exist for digital equity and accessibility initiatives, supporting cost-effective progress without a full local budget commitment.
Fleet Telematics & Driver Safety Expansion
Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The county has a partial telematics deployment covering asset and vehicle tracking, but lacks documented dash cam and driver safety capabilities across its fleet. This gap limits incident documentation, driver accountability, and risk mitigation for county operations and the public it serves.
The opportunity
Expanding telematics coverage is a strategic, non-crisis investment that can be pursued through cooperative purchasing vehicles, reducing procurement burden and timeline. Addressing coverage gaps now strengthens operational oversight, supports liability management, and aligns with responsible stewardship of public fleet assets ahead of the upcoming fiscal cycle.
