Emergency Preparedness & Operations Plan Enhancement
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
A recent flooding emergency declaration and EOC activation exposed critical gaps in EOP review status, HSEEP exercise compliance, and district-level staffing — elevating operational and public safety risk. These deficiencies signal urgent need for structured emergency management improvements to protect residents and ensure continuity of operations.
The opportunity
The active emergency declaration and an increased FY2026 operating budget create strong funding capacity, while the HSGP grant deadline in July 2026 provides a time-sensitive window to address preparedness gaps. Acting now aligns procurement with available grant dollars and reduces compliance and response-readiness risk ahead of the next severe weather season.
Cybersecurity Vulnerability Remediation
Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
A third-party assessment identified 22 critical, 15 high, and 35 medium-priority vulnerabilities, signaling broad and urgent security exposure across county systems. Password security has been flagged as a specific gap, and unaddressed vulnerabilities elevate risk to public data, operations, and compliance standing.
The opportunity
Grant deadlines in July 2026 — including JAG and COPS TEP — align directly with cybersecurity remediation needs, offering a time-sensitive, funded procurement path. Acting within the current fiscal cycle reduces operational risk, supports compliance, and maximizes eligibility for available public safety technology funding.
Web Accessibility & WCAG 2.1 Compliance Remediation
Digital Equity · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The county's public-facing web properties do not currently meet WCAG 2.1 accessibility standards, creating legal exposure under federal accessibility law and limiting equitable access to digital services for residents with disabilities. With a 2026 digital community survey underway, inaccessible channels risk excluding residents from critical civic participation.
The opportunity
Existing content management infrastructure investments create a natural alignment for remediation work within the current fiscal cycle, reducing redundant costs. Addressing compliance now mitigates litigation risk, supports the active Conservation Needs Assessment outreach, and positions the county for accessible, equitable service delivery.
IT Infrastructure Modernization & Endpoint Management
IT Modernization · Cybersecurity
High Priority
About this project
Active procurement for IT infrastructure maintenance signals ongoing investment alongside identified gaps in endpoint visibility, patch management, and cybersecurity — including 22 critical and 15 high-priority vulnerabilities flagged in a third-party assessment. Unaddressed vulnerabilities elevate operational and compliance risk for staff, residents, and public-facing systems.
The opportunity
An increased FY2026 operating budget and active infrastructure refresh cycle create a timely entry point to close security and management gaps before vulnerabilities are exploited. Grant opportunities with near-term deadlines and cooperative purchasing options support a cost-effective, compliant procurement path.

Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The county's fleet management program presents a moderate opportunity for improvement, with no documented fleet-involved incidents or urgent safety gaps currently identified. Formalizing fleet oversight supports long-term operational continuity and responsible stewardship of public assets.
The opportunity
The COPS TEP grant, with a July 2026 deadline, offers a funded pathway for law-enforcement-aligned fleet and equipment needs, reducing local budget impact. Cooperative purchasing options may further streamline procurement, making this an accessible initiative to advance within the current fiscal cycle.
