EOP Verification and Emergency Preparedness Update
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The department's Emergency Operations Plan is unverified and of unknown age, creating measurable compliance and operational risk despite existing NIMS adoption. Recent severe weather incidents in the county have exposed this preparedness gap, increasing urgency for a validated, current plan that supports coordinated response.
The opportunity
A new Fire Chief, active annual budget planning, and a statewide grant program signal a near-term window to prioritize EOP verification and emergency communication improvements. Addressing this now reduces operational liability, strengthens community resilience, and positions the department to leverage available public safety funding.

Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The department currently relies on two separate notification systems, one requiring manual self-enrollment by cellular users, creating coverage gaps and unreliable reach during emergencies. Recent severe weather events in the county have exposed the operational risk of this fragmented approach to public alerting.
The opportunity
A statewide grant program has identified the department as a recipient, offering a conditional but meaningful funding pathway for this consolidation. With emergency management tech spend historically low, acting within the current grant window is essential to close coverage gaps and strengthen community-wide emergency response.

Discuss this project →Cybersecurity & Endpoint Compliance Modernization
Cybersecurity · IT Compliance
High Priority
About this project
A documented need for cybersecurity and endpoint compliance exists, with existing Microsoft 365 licenses providing a partial foundation but leaving critical gaps unaddressed. Annual IT spend is constrained at approximately $30K, making external funding essential to close compliance and security risks across endpoints and user access.
The opportunity
A State Cybersecurity Grant funded for FY26 creates an active, time-sensitive procurement window, and the informal quote threshold of $25,000 allows eligible solutions to move quickly without a formal bid process. Acting now aligns investment with the current grant cycle and reduces operational and compliance exposure before the window closes.

Discuss this project →Web Accessibility & WCAG Compliance Remediation
Web Accessibility · ADA Compliance
High Priority
About this project
Public-facing web properties have a documented gap in WCAG conformance, creating legal exposure and barriers for residents with disabilities. ADA transition planning is ongoing, with a compliance deadline of 2028 establishing a defined but time-sensitive remediation window.
The opportunity
Acting ahead of the 2028 deadline reduces legal risk and allows for phased remediation aligned with annual budget and procurement cycles. Existing document management tools may be leveraged to accelerate compliance, minimizing new spend while improving equitable public access.

Discuss this project →Fire Fleet Dash Camera & Telematics Pilot
Fleet Safety · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The fire department currently lacks documented dash camera or telematics capability across its fleet, creating a potential liability and operational visibility gap. While no recent incidents have been recorded, the absence of this infrastructure leaves the department without objective data to support driver accountability and risk management.
The opportunity
A new Fire Chief's tenure presents a natural window to evaluate fleet safety practices, and the department's informal procurement threshold supports a low-barrier pilot scope. Proactive investment aligns with responsible stewardship of public assets and may reduce long-term insurance and liability exposure.
