Emergency Operations Plan Development for Water System Compliance
Emergency Management · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The district currently has no Emergency Operations Plan in place, creating a direct compliance gap against Tennessee state mandates for community water systems and FEMA NIMS requirements tied to federal grant eligibility. This unaddressed mandate elevates operational, safety, and funding risk for the utility and the communities it serves.
The opportunity
State compliance deadlines and federal grant eligibility requirements make this a near-term, high-priority initiative with no room for delay. Establishing a compliant EOP now positions the district to access federal preparedness funding, satisfy regulatory obligations, and strengthen operational resilience for critical water infrastructure.

Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
No emergency mass-notification platform is currently in place, leaving staff and residents without a reliable alert channel during incidents. This gap contributes to a provisional Emergency Preparedness Score of 4 and reflects unmet state EOP mandates for community water systems and FEMA NIMS compliance requirements.
The opportunity
With no incumbent solution to displace, this project can move quickly through cooperative purchasing channels, reducing procurement complexity and timeline. Addressing the gap now closes a documented compliance deficiency, strengthens operational resilience, and positions the district to meet federal grant eligibility requirements tied to emergency preparedness mandates.

Discuss this project →Fleet Telematics & Vehicle Safety Modernization
Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The district operates vehicle assets with no documented telematics solution, creating a preventive safety gap with no current visibility into fleet performance or driver behavior. While no active safety crisis exists, the absence of monitoring represents an unaddressed operational risk to staff and the public.
The opportunity
The district may be eligible for grant funding that could offset acquisition costs for a fleet telematics solution, with cooperative procurement pathways available to streamline purchasing. Engaging during the current grant cycle positions the district to address safety gaps cost-effectively within an upcoming fiscal window.

Discuss this project →Web Accessibility & Digital Customer Portal Modernization
Web Accessibility · Digital Services Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The district's customer-facing website and payment portal rely on a third-party provider whose bill payment service is scheduled to sunset in August 2026, creating an operational gap for residents. Modernizing the portal now addresses continuity risk while advancing web accessibility and digital equity for the public served.
The opportunity
The August 2026 third-party payment cutoff creates a defined planning window to modernize digital services before service disruption occurs. Acting within the current fiscal cycle allows the district to align procurement through cooperative purchasing vehicles and pursue solutions eligible for state or federal funding support.
