Emergency Communications & Operations Plan Hardening
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
Critical communications failures during Hurricane Beryl exposed gaps in resident reach and distributed planning across the Township. A fragmented notification ecosystem and outdated EOP elements create measurable compliance risk against TDEM planning standards, with $80,000 already allocated for PSAP/CAD improvements.
The opportunity
Active capital funding and identified grant pathways (HSGP, EMPG) position this as a ready-to-execute initiative within the current budget cycle. Consolidating the split notification ecosystem now reduces operational risk, strengthens TDEM compliance, and improves resident outcomes before the next severe weather season.
Web Accessibility & Video Content Compliance
Web Accessibility · Digital Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The Township faces a federally-driven mandate to achieve WCAG 2.1 Level AA compliance across public-facing digital properties, with video content accessibility as a priority gap. Failure to meet the April 2028 deadline creates legal exposure and limits equitable public access to government services.
The opportunity
With a fixed compliance deadline and active FY2026 IT capital budget, the timing to plan and execute is now. Addressing accessibility proactively reduces legal risk, advances digital equity, and aligns with cooperative purchasing vehicles already in use by the Township.

Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The Township operates an aging fleet with fragmented tracking and no fleet-wide camera or driver-behavior monitoring, creating accountability gaps and operational risk. A documented fire apparatus collision and roadway-blocking incidents underscore the urgency of consolidating fleet oversight into a unified management platform.
The opportunity
Confirmed use of cooperative purchasing vehicles simplifies procurement, and the Township's established IT budget capacity supports near-term investment. Addressing fleet safety now reduces liability exposure, improves public worker safety, and aligns with the active fleet renewal initiative in the current fiscal plan.

Cybersecurity Compliance · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The Township faces active cybersecurity compliance mandates—including Texas-required annual security training and vendor security requirements—while a distributed IT infrastructure creates measurable gaps in endpoint management and credential security. These gaps elevate operational and audit risk across departments reliant on connected systems.
The opportunity
The FY2026 IT capital budget confirms funding availability, and federal grant programs such as JAG and HSGP represent viable paths to offset investment costs. Acting within the current fiscal cycle addresses non-discretionary compliance requirements while advancing a funded, high-priority strategic initiative.
