Emergency Operations Plan Modernization and Testing
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The county's EOP is undocumented or outdated, with no recorded HSEEP exercises and documented mass-notification gaps that left residents unreached during recent severe flooding—resulting in active litigation. Compliance mandates around annual plan testing, NG911 standards, and operational continuity remain unmet, elevating both legal and public safety risk.
The opportunity
The FY2027 budget designates emergency management a top strategic priority with approved funding, and the FY2026 Next Generation Warning System Grant Program (deadline August 2026) offers a near-term external funding catalyst. A new E911 director creates an immediate leadership window to advance plan formalization, exercise compliance, and resident safety outcomes.

High Priority
About this project
Documented mass-notification failures left residents without critical alerts during recent severe flooding, contributing to active litigation. Fragmented text alert and E911 CAD systems operating independently limit coordinated outreach and create ongoing operational and compliance risk.
The opportunity
FY2027 budget funding is approved, a new E911 director is driving modernization, and the FY2026 Next Generation Warning System Grant deadline arrives in August 2026. Acting now reduces litigation exposure, closes preparedness gaps, and aligns with NG911 compliance standards.

Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The county's fragmented text alert and CAD systems create dispatch and communications gaps that undermine E911 operational continuity. NG911 technical standards compliance, outage notification mandates, and documented mass-notification reliability concerns are driving urgent consolidation.
The opportunity
FY2027 budget-approved funding and a current federal grant window support NG911 modernization with cooperative procurement vehicles available to accelerate timelines. Acting now aligns with leadership priorities, reduces compliance exposure, and strengthens public safety outcomes for residents.

Fleet Management · Public Works Technology
High Priority
About this project
An existing county highway telematics program provides a foundation for broader fleet visibility, but coverage remains limited to a single department. Expanding to additional vehicle classes or departments would improve operational oversight, driver accountability, and preventive maintenance across public-facing services.
The opportunity
With an established program already in place, expanding telematics county-wide avoids redundant procurement and leverages existing infrastructure investment. Aligning expansion with the upcoming fiscal cycle supports budget efficiency and strengthens stewardship of public assets.
