Emergency Operations Plan Development & Preparedness
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The county lacks a publicly available Emergency Operations Plan and experienced resource shortfalls during a recent severe weather event requiring state and federal aid. NIMS compliance mandates and overdue EOP review requirements add regulatory pressure, while mass notification capability gaps leave residents and staff at risk.
The opportunity
County-approved funding for critical incident mapping and a 2026 EMPG grant deadline create a near-term window to close preparedness gaps with limited local match required. Acting now supports NIMS compliance, strengthens community resilience, and aligns with the momentum of new emergency management leadership and committee formation.

Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The fire department is operating aging, non-functional dash cam technology amid recent fleet accidents, creating measurable safety and liability risk. Active daily fleet use amplifies exposure, and ongoing investigations into vehicle exhaust systems signal broader fleet health concerns requiring immediate attention.
The opportunity
The FY 2025–2026 fire department budget adoption creates a near-term procurement window to address safety gaps before risk escalates. Cooperative purchasing pathways are available, reducing procurement complexity and accelerating deployment of modern fleet monitoring to protect personnel and the public.

Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
Staff reliance on consumer email accounts for official communications signals an absence of enterprise-grade identity and credential management, creating significant cybersecurity exposure. Without structured access controls, the department faces elevated risk of data breach, unauthorized access, and non-compliance with public-sector security standards.
The opportunity
Low IT maturity and documented credential gaps make this an addressable, near-term priority ahead of the upcoming fiscal cycle. Cooperative procurement vehicles are available to streamline acquisition, and addressing this now reduces operational risk while supporting broader cybersecurity compliance posture.
Web Accessibility & WCAG 2.1 Compliance Remediation
ADA Compliance · Digital Services Modernization
High Priority
About this project
Public-facing digital services face a mandated WCAG 2.1 compliance deadline of 2028, with ADA remediation already underway. Unresolved accessibility gaps create legal exposure and limit equitable access to government services for residents with disabilities.
The opportunity
The FY 2025–2026 budget cycle and the established 2028 compliance timeline create a defined window to begin staged remediation now, reducing risk and spreading costs. Early action supports equitable service delivery, aligns with current fiscal planning, and may qualify for state or federal accessibility funding.
Hazard Mitigation & Critical Incident Mapping
Emergency Management · Geospatial Planning
High Priority
About this project
The county has approved dedicated funding for a critical incident mapping initiative as part of a broader hazard mitigation planning effort identified as a top strategic priority. Gaps in local emergency operations planning and resource shortfalls during recent severe weather events elevate operational and compliance risk under NIMS and EOP review mandates.
The opportunity
Approved budget funding signals immediate procurement readiness, and alignment with the EMPG grant cycle offers additional support with limited local match required. Acting now advances the county's hazard mitigation plan, strengthens emergency response capacity, and reduces risk to residents and public safety personnel.
