Emergency Operations Plan Remediation & Hazard Mitigation Update
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The county's Emergency Operations Plan expired as of August 2025 and shows no evidence of a recent update, creating an immediate NIMS compliance gap. A concurrent 2026 regional hazard mitigation plan update is underway, compounding the urgency for coordinated remediation before the review cycle closes.
The opportunity
The FY2026–2027 budget includes a dedicated Emergency Management appropriation increase, and the regional hazard mitigation update is grant-funded, creating a near-term funded window opening October 2026. Acting now closes a critical compliance gap, reduces operational liability, and positions the county ahead of the regional planning cycle.

Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The county's mass notification system, in place since 2012, operates in a fragmented ecosystem disconnected from dispatch and CAD systems, limiting alert reliability and resident reach. With no modernization plan in place and emergency management compliance mandates overdue, the operational and public safety risk is escalating.
The opportunity
Dedicated Emergency Management communications funding is included in the adopted FY2026-2027 budget, with the buying window opening October 2026. Acting within this cycle aligns modernization with available appropriations, strengthens NIMS compliance, and ensures residents and staff receive timely, reliable alerts during critical incidents.

Web Accessibility · Digital Services Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The county has an active, unfunded initiative to bring its distributed web services stack into WCAG 2.1 Level AA compliance ahead of a federal deadline of April 2028. Fragmented platforms create content consolidation challenges and expose the county to legal liability and federal compliance risk.
The opportunity
The April 2028 federal deadline creates a firm compliance driver, and the FY2026–2027 IT software budget increase provides a near-term entry point to begin remediation. Acting within the current fiscal cycle reduces legal exposure and ensures equitable digital access for all residents.

IT Modernization · Cybersecurity Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The county has budget-approved IT and cybersecurity modernization for FY2027, with dedicated software appropriations for core security controls. Cyber and liability insurance renewal is due by March 2027, creating a near-term compliance deadline that elevates operational and financial risk if gaps remain unaddressed.
The opportunity
The FY2026–2027 budget includes funded IT and Sheriff's software appropriations with a buying window opening October 2026, aligning modernization efforts with active fiscal resources. Acting within this cycle reduces insurance renewal risk and positions the county for stronger cybersecurity posture ahead of the 2027 deadline.

Discuss this project →Fleet Safety Equipment Funding Through Law Enforcement Grant
Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The county's existing public-safety systems include AVL capabilities, but fleet telematics and vehicle safety equipment have not been identified as active initiatives. The SB22 Rural Law Enforcement Grant ($350,000, FY2026) explicitly permits vehicles and safety equipment, creating a viable funded pathway before expenditure deadlines.
The opportunity
Dedicated grant funding is already allocated and eligible for vehicles and safety equipment within the current fiscal year, reducing reliance on general fund dollars. Acting before grant expenditure deadlines ensures the county captures available public-safety funding while strengthening fleet accountability and officer safety.
