Emergency Preparedness & Mass Notification Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The county faces documented gaps in communications resilience, EOP currency, and operational capacity—highlighted by a loss of service during an ice storm. NIMS compliance mandates require current, capable infrastructure, and an eight-month director vacancy has compounded preparedness risk for residents and staff.
The opportunity
A 20.6% FY26 Emergency Management budget increase, a FEMA major disaster declaration, and multiple grant programs with upcoming deadlines (including EMPG and HSGP) create a well-funded, near-term window. New leadership and active hazard mitigation planning make this an ideal moment to close preparedness gaps and strengthen community resilience.
Critical Incident Mapping & Situational Awareness Readiness
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The county has applied for a $73,463 Critical Incident Mapping grant, reflecting a recognized gap in situational awareness and incident mapping capabilities. Identified deficiencies in communications resilience, EOP currency, and operational resource capacity elevate risk during active incidents and threaten NIMS compliance.
The opportunity
A pending grant award creates a near-term procurement window, and a 20.6% FY26 Emergency Management budget increase signals strong institutional support. Acting now aligns with FEMA disaster declaration funding, NIMS compliance mandates, and the priorities of newly appointed emergency management leadership.
Critical Incident Mapping grant
Discuss this project →Fleet Telematics & Vehicle Safety Modernization
Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The county's fleet currently lacks dash cameras and telematics, creating liability exposure and limiting incident investigation capabilities. Without modern monitoring tools, the county faces growing operational risk as local incident frequency remains a moderate and ongoing concern.
The opportunity
A 77% increase in the FY26 auto repair and maintenance budget signals readiness for fleet-related investment, and available grant programs explicitly list telematics as an eligible technology. Acting now enables a proactive approach to liability management before incidents escalate costs or compliance exposure.
Strengthen Endpoint Security and Cyber Compliance
Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The county faces a recognized mandate for baseline cybersecurity capabilities, with identified gaps in endpoint protection and access management. Broader digital infrastructure deficiencies, including website accessibility compliance (WCAG/ADA), compound operational and compliance risk across departments.
The opportunity
Grant programs such as JAG and HSGP explicitly list cybersecurity technologies as eligible expenditures, offering a viable funding path aligned with the current grant window. Acting within the upcoming fiscal cycle addresses compliance mandates, reduces breach exposure, and strengthens public-facing digital services.
