Fleet Vehicle Replacement & Telematics Modernization
Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The FY2026-27 Capital Improvement Plan includes funded allocations for police, DPW, and utility fleet vehicles, yet no telematics system is in place. This gap creates unmonitored liability exposure and safety risk from vehicle incidents involving public employees and assets.
The opportunity
Funded CIP line items and grant programs aligned with law enforcement technology create an immediate, low-barrier procurement window. Acting within the current fiscal cycle allows the city to pair capital vehicle purchases with safety and accountability technology, maximizing public value and reducing long-term liability.

Emergency Management · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
No publicly posted Emergency Operations Plan has been identified, and the city faces recurring ice-jam flooding with limited documented mitigation. NIMS and HSEEP compliance mandates create clear regulatory obligations, elevating operational and liability risk for residents and staff.
The opportunity
A funded AWIA compliance cycle and active HSGP and BRIC grant windows create a near-term opening to address emergency planning gaps. Acting now aligns with regulatory deadlines, strengthens community resilience, and positions the city to leverage available state and federal funding before the current cycle closes.
Modernize City Mass Notification for Unified Alerting
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The city's mass notification capability is fragmented between city and county systems, leaving a critical gap in unified, reliable public alerting. The county's recent platform launch has highlighted this disparity, elevating operational and NIMS compliance risk for the city.
The opportunity
County-level momentum and a new City Manager signal openness to modernization, making this an ideal time to advance a city-led alerting initiative. Federal preparedness grant programs such as HSGP and BRIC may offset costs, and alignment with the upcoming fiscal cycle supports timely action.
Modernize Police In-Car Video & Accountability Technology
Public Safety · Law Enforcement Technology
High Priority
About this project
The police department currently lacks in-car video systems, creating measurable liability exposure and limiting incident documentation capabilities. Recent investment in a police RMS/LEIN system signals readiness to advance law enforcement technology, making this a timely risk mitigation priority.
The opportunity
COPS TEP grant funding directly supports law enforcement technology adoption, offering a strong funding path with limited local match requirements. New city leadership and an active FY2026–27 capital cycle create favorable conditions for advancing this initiative and reducing operational and liability risk.

Discuss this project →Web Accessibility & Digital Portal Compliance Remediation
Digital Accessibility · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The city's public-facing digital portals have identified gaps against WCAG and ADA compliance standards, creating legal exposure and barriers to equitable public access. Without remediation, the city risks enforcement action and fails residents who depend on accessible online services.
The opportunity
ADA/WCAG compliance obligations create time-sensitive remediation urgency, and addressing gaps now reduces legal liability while improving service equity for all residents. This work aligns with current IT planning cycles and may be eligible for state or federal digital equity funding pathways.
