Unified Mass Notification & Emergency Management Consolidation
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The Town operates two separate, unintegrated mass notification systems, creating fragmented emergency communications and follow-up gaps. Past water infrastructure failures resulted in disaster declarations, and the hazard mitigation plan requires updating by 2027, compounding preparedness and compliance risk.
The opportunity
The 2027 hazard mitigation plan deadline creates a near-term decision window, and the Emergency Management budget is stable at $17,000 with cooperative purchasing available to streamline procurement. Consolidating now reduces operational risk, strengthens public safety outcomes, and positions the Town ahead of compliance requirements.

Discuss this project →Web Accessibility & Digital Portal Compliance
Web Accessibility · Digital Services Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The Town's website currently meets only WCAG 2.0 standards, falling short of the federally mandated WCAG 2.1 Level AA threshold required by April 2028. With the existing web platform contract expiring in May 2027 and the digital services initiative currently unfunded, the Town faces compounding compliance and procurement risk.
The opportunity
The convergence of a contract expiration and a hard compliance deadline creates a narrow, time-sensitive planning window. FY 2026–2027 software budget allocations and cooperative purchasing agreements offer accessible procurement pathways to advance this effort with reduced administrative burden and local cost exposure.

Cybersecurity Compliance · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The Town currently lacks a password management solution and must meet Texas-mandated annual cybersecurity training and compliance certification by August 31, 2026. This gap creates direct regulatory exposure and limits visibility into the Town's overall security posture, elevating operational and public trust risk.
The opportunity
The August 2026 compliance deadline creates immediate urgency, and the FY 2026–2027 budget includes identified IT and software allocations to support action this cycle. The Edward Byrne Memorial JAG Program offers an eligible funding pathway for information systems improvements, reducing the local cost burden.

Discuss this project →Fleet Telematics & Transportation Safety Modernization
Fleet & Transportation · Public Works Safety
High Priority
About this project
The Town operates an aging fleet with no vehicle monitoring, dash-cams, or telematics, and a current vehicle software budget of $0. Insurance and workers' compensation costs have risen sharply across departments, signaling escalating operational risk that proactive fleet safety tools could help reduce.
The opportunity
FY 2026–2027 budget increases for vehicle maintenance and capital equipment signal approved investment momentum, and cooperative purchasing agreements provide a fast-track, low-friction procurement path. The PROTECT Competitive Grant Program offers a conditional funding avenue if the initiative is framed around transportation resilience.

Discuss this project →IT Management & Endpoint Monitoring Modernization
IT Modernization · Cybersecurity Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The Town lacks a named IT management or endpoint monitoring solution, and its modest $61,500 annual IT and software spend suggests limited infrastructure oversight. An open Public Works/Office Manager position may further reduce operational capacity, increasing exposure to undetected vulnerabilities and Texas cybersecurity compliance risk.
The opportunity
The FY 2026–2027 budget includes approved allocations for IT professional services and software, and the Edward Byrne Memorial JAG Program offers an eligible funding pathway for information systems improvements. Acting within this budget cycle advances the Town's IT & Cybersecurity Modernization initiative and reduces compliance and operational risk ahead of the state's annual certification deadline.
