Hazard Mitigation Plan Update & Emergency Operations Management
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The district's Hazard Mitigation Plan is overdue and no dedicated mass-notification system is in place, leaving critical emergency preparedness gaps. AWIA/SDWA compliance mandates require current emergency response plans, and documented public impact during a past flooding event underscores the operational and reputational risk.
The opportunity
The active FY27 budget cycle and a public hearing on the horizon create a near-term decision window, while the BRIC Grant Program offers a viable funding path for resilient infrastructure and emergency management improvements. Acting now aligns with funded flood control and resilience initiatives and reduces compliance exposure before the next review cycle.

Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The district currently lacks a dedicated mass-notification system, relying on fragmented point solutions that leave critical gaps in unified staff and public communications. Documented public frustration during a prior flooding event, combined with an overdue Hazard Mitigation Plan and AWIA/SDWA emergency response mandates, elevates both operational and compliance risk.
The opportunity
The active FY27 budget cycle and alignment with resilient infrastructure grant programs create a near-term, fundable window to close this communications gap. Acting now reduces reputational and compliance exposure while strengthening community resilience ahead of the next severe weather event.

Discuss this project →Fleet Lifecycle Modernization & Telematics Integration
Fleet Management · Asset Lifecycle Planning
High Priority
About this project
The district is actively modernizing its fleet operations while facing rising workers' compensation and insurance costs tied to identified fleet condition and collision-evidence gaps. ISO 55000 asset management planning signals a structured approach, but a split between maintenance services and telematics creates operational blind spots and unaddressed safety risk.
The opportunity
The FY27 budget explicitly increases capital equipment spending, and active fleet maintenance procurement creates a near-term decision window. Cooperative purchasing agreements provide a streamlined procurement path, and this initiative is eligible for capital funding already allocated within the upcoming budget cycle.

Discuss this project →Cybersecurity & IT Management Modernization
Cybersecurity Operations · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The district is actively soliciting SOC services while navigating a Microsoft licensing transition and an enterprise asset management upgrade, creating compounding cybersecurity and IT governance risk. AWIA/SDWA compliance mandates require a documented cybersecurity posture for water utilities, and no incumbent solutions are in place to address these converging needs.
The opportunity
The FY27 IT budget reflects a 26.40% proposed spending increase, and the BJA JAG Program offers an eligible funding pathway for IT management and cybersecurity initiatives. Acting within the current procurement and budget cycle positions the district to meet compliance mandates and reduce operational risk before the next fiscal deadline.

IT Modernization · Infrastructure Resilience
High Priority
About this project
An active procurement is underway to modernize network infrastructure alongside broader IT upgrades, including enterprise system transitions. Aging or fragmented infrastructure elevates operational risk and may hinder service delivery continuity for the communities and systems this district supports.
The opportunity
The FY27 budget cycle includes a proposed 26.40% increase in IT spending, creating a near-term funding window for infrastructure investment. Cooperative purchasing agreements provide a streamlined procurement path, reducing administrative burden and accelerating time to implementation.

Discuss this project →Web Accessibility & Digital Portal Compliance Remediation
Web Accessibility · Digital Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The district's public-facing web presence does not meet WCAG 2.1 accessibility standards, creating direct legal exposure and excluding residents with disabilities from essential digital services. This compliance gap requires structured remediation before the applicable deadline to avoid regulatory and reputational risk.
The opportunity
The active FY27 budget cycle, which includes a documented increase in IT spending, provides a near-term funding window to address this mandate. Acting now reduces legal liability, ensures equitable public access, and positions the district ahead of enforcement timelines.
