Cybersecurity Infrastructure & Compliance Modernization
Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The city faces critical cybersecurity gaps including primary firewalls reaching end-of-life by May 2027, absent vulnerability assessments, and a compliance mandate requiring cybersecurity training and password security improvements by August 2026. Active procurement is underway, and a funded Cybersecurity Analyst position has been established to address growing operational risk.
The opportunity
The August 2026 training compliance deadline and May 2027 firewall end-of-life create immediate, time-bound action windows, with budget already approved for key security investments. SLCGP and JAG grant opportunities with Fall 2026 deadlines provide additional funding pathways to accelerate modernization and reduce public-sector risk exposure.
Firewall Replacement & Network Perimeter Security
Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The city's primary firewalls are approaching end-of-life in May 2027, leaving critical network perimeter defenses exposed to unmitigated risk. Leadership has submitted proposed budget requests for replacement, signaling awareness of the gap, but procurement must begin well in advance to ensure timely deployment.
The opportunity
With a firm end-of-life deadline and a proposed budget already in motion, this project has strong urgency and funding alignment. SLCGP grant eligibility may offset costs, and initiating procurement now ensures compliance, reduces operational risk, and protects critical public systems ahead of the May 2027 deadline.
EOC Modernization and Emergency Operations Plan Development
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The city's Emergency Operations Plan is incomplete and emergency exercise frequency has declined, leaving the organization underprepared for critical incidents. A mass notification failure in October 2025 exposed real-world gaps, and a newly established EMS department is increasing demand for integrated emergency management capabilities.
The opportunity
EOC upgrades are already budgeted, and the EMPG grant provides a direct funding path with a Fall 2026 deadline. Public pressure following the notification failure, combined with a leadership transition, creates a high-visibility window to advance preparedness, close compliance gaps, and strengthen community resilience.
Mass Notification System Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
A critical mass notification system failure in October 2025 left the city unable to reliably alert staff and residents during emergencies, generating public pressure and exposing a serious preparedness gap. Reduced exercise frequency and an incomplete EOP compound the operational and life-safety risk.
The opportunity
EMPG grant opportunities with Fall 2026 deadlines provide a viable funding path, and recent leadership transition creates openness to new solutions. Acting now aligns with active EOC upgrade budgets and restores the reliable public communication capability residents and staff depend on.
Web Accessibility & ADA/WCAG Digital Compliance Remediation
Digital Accessibility · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The city has an active initiative to bring its public-facing website into full ADA/WCAG compliance ahead of a 2028 regulatory deadline. Unresolved accessibility gaps create litigation exposure and risk excluding residents with disabilities from essential digital services.
The opportunity
The 2028 compliance deadline creates urgency to begin staged remediation now, prioritizing highest-risk gaps to manage costs and demonstrate measurable progress. Acting within the current fiscal planning cycle positions the city to reduce legal liability and ensure equitable public access to digital services.
Fleet Safety Modernization and Liability Risk Reduction
Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The city's fleet operations currently lack dash cameras, telematics, and documented claims data, leaving safety incidents unverifiable and liability exposure unquantifiable. While partial fleet management infrastructure is in place, the absence of safety-focused tools creates ongoing operational and financial risk to the municipality.
The opportunity
Existing fleet infrastructure provides a natural foundation for extending safety capabilities without starting from scratch, reducing the cost and complexity of implementation. Addressing these gaps proactively — ahead of an incident or audit finding — supports responsible stewardship of public assets and aligns with upcoming budget planning cycles.
