Emergency Operations Plan & Mass Notification Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The city's Emergency Operations Plan is outdated and unconfirmed, notification systems are fragmented, and standalone emergency management capability is insufficient due to reliance on county-level coordination. Compliance mandates require a current EM plan, and ongoing disaster resilience needs elevate operational and public safety risk.
The opportunity
The FY27 budget includes a 9.2% EMS increase with direct implementation line items, and the PROTECT grant offers an eligible funding pathway with favorable timing. Recent leadership transitions create a re-evaluation window well-suited for advancing this initiative before the upcoming budget cycle closes.

Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
A 51.9% surge in risk pool insurance costs—driven by documented police-vehicle collisions and the absence of a telematics program—signals a critical public safety and fiscal stewardship gap. An active fleet replacement cycle and ongoing road reconstruction compound the urgency for a modern, data-driven fleet management solution.
The opportunity
The FY27 budget reflects a 7.3% increase in Police funding, and the PROTECT grant presents a viable pathway to offset implementation costs. Aligning deployment with the current fleet replacement cycle and road construction timeline maximizes efficiency and positions the entity to reduce insurance exposure and improve officer and public safety outcomes.

Public Safety · Cybersecurity & IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The FY27 budget includes dedicated line items for Police Communications Replacement and Fire Apparatus onboard computers, signaling active procurement intent. These new networked endpoints expand the attack surface without a confirmed cybersecurity framework in place, creating both operational and compliance risk for public safety personnel and the residents they serve.
The opportunity
The FY2027 budget hearing in September 2026 represents a defined procurement window, with BJA JAG grant funding available as a pathway for cybersecurity investments tied to public safety technology. Acting within this cycle ensures new endpoints are secured from deployment, reducing risk and maximizing stewardship of public funds.

Web Accessibility · Digital Services Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The entity faces a hard compliance deadline to meet WCAG 2.1 Level AA web accessibility standards by April 26, 2028, with failure creating legal exposure and inequitable resident access to digital services. A website modernization initiative is already underway, and existing platform subscriptions provide a partial foundation to build upon.
The opportunity
The FY2027 budget cycle and the firm 2028 WCAG compliance deadline create a clear, time-sensitive procurement window aligned with leadership priorities and funded IT capital outlay. Acting now allows the entity to remediate access gaps, reduce legal risk, and leverage existing investments for a cost-effective path to compliance.
Strengthen Credential Security Across Public Safety Systems
Cybersecurity · Public Safety IT
High Priority
About this project
No formal password management policy or deployed credential security solution has been confirmed across the entity, creating a foundational security gap. The expansion of networked public safety endpoints amplifies exposure to unauthorized access and credential-based threats affecting staff and residents.
The opportunity
The BJA JAG grant program offers a viable funding pathway for credential security investments, and proposed FY27 increases in IT maintenance and software capital outlay provide additional budget headroom. Recent leadership transitions create a favorable environment for establishing foundational security policies ahead of the upcoming budget cycle.
