Emergency Operations Plan & Mass Notification Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The city's Emergency Operations Plan is overdue for review, mitigation planning for technological hazards is incomplete, and mass notification is fragmented across two platforms with documented timing failures and no confirmed contract or lifecycle status for the primary system. NIMS adoption requirements and annual plan review mandates compound the compliance exposure.
The opportunity
The proposed FY 2026–2027 budget includes targeted increases for Fire and Public Safety, and a formal emergency-management preparedness program is already a stated strategic initiative—creating a clear funding alignment. Addressing the EOP gap and consolidating notification now reduces operational risk and positions the city ahead of compliance mandates.

Cybersecurity Compliance · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
A documented cybersecurity training and certification mandate requires compliance by August 31, 2026, with no confirmed incumbent solution for password security or endpoint identity management. Unaddressed credential and access control gaps elevate operational and audit risk across public safety and dispatch infrastructure.
The opportunity
The August 2026 deadline creates clear, time-bound urgency aligned with FY 2026–2027 budget planning. With $642,000 allocated to Central Dispatch/IT and the BJA FY 2026 JAG Program identified as an eligible funding match for cybersecurity initiatives, resources are in place to act now and reduce compliance exposure.

Web Accessibility · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The city's public-facing website has documented WCAG 2.1 accessibility gaps, creating barriers for residents with disabilities and exposure to federal compliance risk ahead of the April 26, 2028 mandate. A formal accessibility improvement initiative is already underway, signaling institutional readiness but an unresolved remediation path.
The opportunity
With FY 2026–2027 budget planning active and cooperative purchasing vehicles already in place, the city can accelerate procurement and remediation now—well ahead of the compliance deadline. Acting early reduces legal and reputational risk while ensuring equitable digital access for all residents.

Discuss this project →Fire Fleet Telematics & Apparatus Maintenance Modernization
Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The Fire Department lacks telematics and dash-cam systems for its large emergency-response apparatus, creating an evidence and accountability gap that undermines maintenance tracking and response-readiness. A formal fleet-maintenance program is a documented strategic priority, yet no monitoring solution is currently in place.
The opportunity
Active strategic initiatives for fleet maintenance and response-readiness align with the upcoming fiscal planning cycle, and cooperative purchasing agreements provide streamlined procurement paths. Addressing this gap now strengthens apparatus reliability, supports operational accountability, and positions the department to leverage eligible grant funding as windows reopen.

Discuss this project →Centralized Endpoint & Infrastructure Management Modernization
IT Modernization · Public Safety Technology
High Priority
About this project
A proposed $642,000 FY 2026–2027 budget allocation for Central Dispatch and IT signals growing infrastructure investment, yet no centralized endpoint or device management solution is confirmed. This gap creates operational risk across public safety and administrative systems without unified visibility or control.
The opportunity
The FY 2026–2027 budget cycle and the BJA JAG Program present a timely, funding-aligned path to address endpoint management gaps with limited local match required. Acting now reduces operational risk, supports continuity across dispatch and public safety systems, and aligns with active fiscal planning.
