Emergency Operations Plan Update and Compliance
Emergency Management · Grant Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The county's Emergency Operations Plan is significantly overdue for review, running to 2029 against a 2–4 year expectation, creating risk of lost FEMA and state grant eligibility. Recent severe weather events have raised public concern about mass notification reliability, compounding the preparedness and compliance gap.
The opportunity
Alignment with HSGP grant deadlines and a recently filled Emergency Management Coordinator role signal a timely window to advance this initiative within the current funding cycle. Acting now protects grant eligibility, reduces compliance exposure, and strengthens community preparedness outcomes.

Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The county simultaneously operates multiple overlapping mass notification platforms, creating a fragmented and unreliable alert ecosystem. Public concerns raised during recent severe weather events expose operational risk, service delivery gaps, and potential loss of FEMA and state grant eligibility tied to an overdue EOP review cycle.
The opportunity
The FY26 Homeland Security Grant Program (HSGP) presents a direct funding pathway for notification modernization with strong alignment to current county initiatives. Consolidating platforms now reduces redundancy costs, closes documented compliance gaps, and strengthens public trust in life-safety communications ahead of the next severe weather season.

Fleet Safety · Public Safety Technology
High Priority
About this project
A recent incident involving a deputy's cruiser and the documented absence of dash cams and body cameras expose the Sheriff's Department to significant safety and liability risk. Rising insurance costs compound the urgency, signaling a clear operational gap in fleet visibility and officer accountability.
The opportunity
Fleet capital outlay is an active strategic initiative with funding being pursued, and the FY26 COPS Technology and Equipment Program offers a strong, direct grant alignment for fleet safety and telematics. Acting within the current grant window supports near-term procurement and reduces ongoing liability exposure.

IT Modernization · Cybersecurity
High Priority
About this project
The county has acknowledged cybersecurity vulnerabilities through active security testing procurement, while its Microsoft 365/Azure and VMware environment presents unresolved identity and endpoint management gaps. These exposures create operational and compliance risk across county systems and public-facing services.
The opportunity
Ongoing software renewals and active procurement cycles create a natural entry point for modernization investment aligned with the current fiscal year. The FY26 Homeland Security Grant Program and related funding opportunities offer eligible pathways to address gaps with reduced local budget impact.

Discuss this project →Web & Digital Accessibility Compliance Modernization
Digital Accessibility · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The county has a documented commitment to website accessibility, signaling active awareness of ADA and related compliance obligations for public-facing digital properties. Without a confirmed remediation plan or budget, residents with disabilities face continued barriers to equitable access to government services.
The opportunity
Pairing this initiative with broader IT modernization efforts already underway could accelerate timelines and reduce costs within the upcoming fiscal cycle. Accessibility improvements are broadly eligible for state and federal technology funding, and early action reduces legal exposure while advancing equitable service delivery.
