Hazard Mitigation Plan Update and Compliance
Emergency Management · Grant Compliance
High Priority
About this project
Sterling County faces an active compliance mandate to update its Hazard Mitigation Plan to meet FEMA and TDEM requirements, with no internal capacity to complete the work. Without timely action, the county risks losing eligibility for future federal mitigation funding and remaining out of regulatory compliance.
The opportunity
FEMA HMGP funding is already secured for this project, with commencement targeted for September 2026 and an anticipated budget of $65K–$85K within the county's informal quote threshold. Acting now ensures compliance continuity, protects public safety outcomes, and positions the county to remain eligible for future federal and state mitigation resources.

High Priority
About this project
Sterling County faces active cybersecurity compliance mandates — including TAC Cybersecurity Training requirements and Section 889 telecom prohibitions — while operating with an IT budget that is 98% utilized. This resource constraint limits the county's ability to address compliance gaps and sustain secure operations without alternative funding strategies.
The opportunity
Remaining flexible ARPA funds present a time-sensitive pathway to address cybersecurity training and compliance requirements before those resources are committed elsewhere. Acting within the current fiscal cycle reduces regulatory exposure, strengthens operational resilience, and leverages cooperative purchasing vehicles to maximize the value of constrained public dollars.
