Unify Emergency Alerting and Close Preparedness Gaps
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The department operates a fragmented emergency alert ecosystem—split between city/county and volunteer fire workflows—while relying on a mass notification platform with documented delivery limitations. Critical gaps include an EOP of unknown age, no post-flood incident assessment, and a voice/line recorder system due for replacement, all elevating TDEM 2026 and NIMS compliance risk.
The opportunity
The recently adopted FY2026-27 budget opens a live funding window, and a fire-and-rescue equipment grant is aligned to this initiative. Acting now addresses TDEM 2026 compliance deadlines, reduces SHSP eligibility risk, and consolidates fragmented alert workflows before the next severe weather season.

Discuss this project →City Hall Physical Security System Replacement
Physical Security · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
City Hall's aging security camera and door access systems lack integration with modern infrastructure, creating documented safety and operational gaps. A high-profile incident tied to this legacy system has elevated urgency for replacement to protect staff, residents, and public facilities.
The opportunity
The recently adopted FY2026-27 budget opens a current funding window to address this gap. Acting now reduces operational and liability risk while aligning with public safety priorities and available budget allocations for infrastructure modernization.

IT Modernization · Cybersecurity
High Priority
About this project
The city has allocated FY2026-27 budget increases to advance a planned cloud migration and strengthen its cybersecurity posture. Aging on-premises infrastructure and rising operational costs create risk exposure that current tools are not positioned to manage effectively.
The opportunity
With the FY2026-27 budget recently adopted and IT funding actively designated, this is an immediate window to execute a funded, strategic initiative. Acting within this cycle reduces operational risk and positions the city for more resilient, cost-efficient IT operations.

Discuss this project →Web Accessibility & Digital Portal Compliance
Web Accessibility · Digital Services Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The department's web presence has identified WCAG 2.1 compliance gaps, creating legal exposure and barriers to equitable public access. Digital services are fragmented across multiple platforms, increasing operational risk and complicating efforts to deliver consistent, accessible services to residents.
The opportunity
The recently adopted FY2026-27 budget includes funded strategic initiatives aligned with digital accessibility and paperless service delivery, creating a clear near-term action window. Addressing compliance gaps now reduces legal risk, improves public service equity, and positions the department to consolidate platforms efficiently.

Discuss this project →Fleet Telematics & Transportation Safety Modernization
Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
Emergency apparatus currently lack documented telematics or dash camera coverage, creating a measurable gap in preventive safety oversight. Vehicle insurance costs have risen nearly 19% and workers' compensation costs are climbing, signaling escalating operational and financial risk to the city.
The opportunity
The Safe Streets for All (SS4A) grant represents a direct funding match for fleet safety initiatives, with significant matching funds already reflected in the adopted FY2026-27 budget. Acting within the current grant window reduces insurance liability, improves driver accountability, and strengthens public safety outcomes.

Discuss this project →Strengthen Credential and Identity Security Controls
Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
A planned cloud migration and broader IT modernization effort expose credential and identity management as an unaddressed control gap. Without structured access policies, public systems and staff accounts face elevated risk of unauthorized access and data exposure.
The opportunity
The recently adopted FY2026-27 budget includes IT increases and cloud migration funding, creating a natural window to embed identity security into modernization planning. Addressing this now reduces downstream remediation costs and supports responsible stewardship of public infrastructure.
