Emergency Operations Plan & Preparedness Program Development
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
Critical emergency preparedness gaps exist, including no publicly available Emergency Operations Plan, no identified Emergency Management Coordinator, and no documented HSEEP-style exercises. State compliance mandates from MSP/EMHSD, combined with ongoing 911 Dispatch and EOC planning, elevate operational and regulatory risk.
The opportunity
Grant deadlines in July 2026 (HSGP, BRIC) and an active FY 2026–2027 budget cycle create a timely funding pathway with strong existing budget alignment. Addressing these gaps now reduces compliance exposure, strengthens community resilience, and positions the jurisdiction to compete for available preparedness funding.
Cybersecurity Modernization and Managed Services
Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
A public cyberattack in April 2026 exposed critical vulnerabilities in county systems, creating immediate pressure to strengthen IT security infrastructure. An active Managed Services Provider procurement with cybersecurity scope signals an open window to address systemic risk before contract finalization.
The opportunity
With an MSP RFP already issued and a contract start date established, the procurement path is active and time-sensitive. Strategic IT and cybersecurity modernization are identified planning priorities supported by nearly $2 million in annual IT and software spend, positioning this initiative for near-term action within the current fiscal cycle.
Web Accessibility & Digital Portal Compliance
Web Accessibility · Digital Compliance
High Priority
About this project
Public-facing digital portals face legal and accessibility risk under WCAG/ADA mandates with an explicit 2026 compliance deadline. Gaps in accessible design expose the entity to liability and limit equitable service delivery for residents with disabilities.
The opportunity
The 2026 deadline creates near-term procurement urgency aligned with the active FY 2026–2027 budget cycle, and increased general fund revenue may provide accessible funding pathways. Cooperative purchasing vehicles can accelerate procurement and reduce administrative burden.

Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
Fragmented notification systems across city and county operations create inconsistent public and staff alerting, undermining coordinated emergency response. The lack of a unified communications platform—compounded by documented emergency preparedness gaps and state emergency management mandates—elevates operational and compliance risk.
The opportunity
With over $1 million actively allocated to public safety technology and relevant grant windows approaching in mid-2026 (HSGP, BRIC), the current fiscal cycle presents a timely path to consolidation. Unifying alerting infrastructure now reduces redundancy, closes compliance gaps, and strengthens community-wide emergency response outcomes.
IT Infrastructure & Endpoint Management Modernization
IT Modernization · Cybersecurity Resilience
High Priority
About this project
A recent cyberattack and active search for a new County Administrator have placed IT infrastructure and cybersecurity modernization at the center of operational review. Aging endpoint management practices and post-incident vulnerabilities elevate risk to county systems, staff, and the residents they serve.
The opportunity
With an adopted FY 2026–2027 budget and nearly $2 million in annual IT and software spend already in place, the county has the capacity to act now. Advancing endpoint and infrastructure modernization during this planning window reduces operational risk and positions the county ahead of future compliance and continuity requirements.
