Emergency Operations Plan & Preparedness Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The department lacks a documented Emergency Operations Plan, relies on a countywide opt-in mass notification system without a direct contract, and has no recorded after-action reviews for recurring severe weather events. These gaps create measurable compliance and operational risk under TEMA planning mandates, leaving residents and staff underprotected.
The opportunity
The Homeland Security Grant Program (HSGP) carries a 2026 deadline, and an active grant-funded Crisis Response Coordinator role anchors near-term investment through 2027. Addressing preparedness gaps now aligns with the current funding window and strengthens regional emergency coordination with Williamson County EMA.

Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The department relies on a county-shared, opt-in mass notification system with no direct contract or independent control, creating critical gaps in reaching residents and staff during emergencies. Recurring severe weather events and the absence of documented after-action reviews compound communication reliability risks.
The opportunity
The 2026 Homeland Security Grant Program (HSGP) deadline creates a defined, near-term funding window to address this gap. Acting now aligns with active emergency management grant cycles, strengthens independent incident communication, and reduces operational and compliance risk ahead of the next severe weather season.

Discuss this project →Endpoint Security & Password Management Modernization
Cybersecurity · Public Safety IT
High Priority
About this project
The department operates Microsoft 365 without a confirmed password management solution and relies on a consumer-grade edge security tool with no defined endpoint protection standard. This unaddressed gap poses significant cybersecurity compliance risk in a law enforcement data environment where credential and endpoint integrity are critical.
The opportunity
Multiple active grant programs — including state and local cybersecurity and justice assistance funding streams — provide eligible pathways to close this gap with limited local match required. With no incumbent solution to displace, this project can advance quickly within the current fiscal and grant cycle.

Discuss this project →Fleet Telematics & Driver Safety Monitoring
Fleet Safety · Public Safety Technology
High Priority
About this project
The department has a prior collision on record and lacks documented fleet telematics or claims data, leaving driver safety and liability exposure unaddressed. A previous effort to integrate in-car cameras with GPS and cloud-based evidence management was initiated but not completed, leaving the fleet safety initiative unfinished.
The opportunity
An active annual grant application for equipment and traffic safety aligns with this initiative, and existing GIS platform investments support integrated fleet workflows. Advancing this project within the current grant cycle leverages prior infrastructure groundwork and positions the department for improved safety outcomes and accountability.
