Emergency Notification System Modernization & EOP Update
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The incumbent emergency notification system suffered a cybersecurity incident and service disruption, exposing critical continuity and vendor-dependency risks. The Emergency Operations Plan is overdue and undated, notification coverage gaps persist, and ICS/NIMS compliance mandates add regulatory urgency for residents and first responders.
The opportunity
An open procurement window, a dedicated $500K public safety tech budget, and alignment with the approved FY2027 capital plan create favorable conditions to act now. Modernizing notification infrastructure and updating the EOP reduces compliance exposure, strengthens community resilience, and positions the city for relevant state and federal funding eligibility.

Cybersecurity Compliance · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
An active compliance mandate requires annual cybersecurity training and certification, while a recent cyber incident affecting emergency notification systems has exposed systemic vulnerabilities across city infrastructure. Leadership transition in Information Services creates an immediate window to reassess password management and endpoint security posture before risk compounds.
The opportunity
The JAG Local Formula grant program provides an eligible funding pathway for police IT and cybersecurity systems, aligning with the current FY planning cycle. Acting now leverages both the grant window and the incoming Information Services leadership to advance compliance, reduce operational risk, and protect public safety continuity.

Discuss this project →Municipal Web Portal Accessibility Compliance
Web Accessibility · Digital Equity
High Priority
About this project
Municipal web portals face a confirmed WCAG 2.1 Level AA compliance deadline of April 26, 2027, creating legal exposure and public-access risk for residents who rely on digital services. Gaps in document and portal accessibility leave the city vulnerable to ADA-related complaints and undermine equitable service delivery.
The opportunity
The April 2027 deadline establishes a defined procurement window, and the recently approved FY2027 budget with strong capital investment capacity supports near-term action. Addressing compliance now reduces legal risk, improves resident access, and allows remediation to be phased within current fiscal planning cycles.

Discuss this project →Fleet Telematics & Vehicle Safety Program
Fleet Safety · Public Risk Management
High Priority
About this project
The city has experienced an 18% increase in auto-liability contributions and $109K in claims paid, with no documented fleet telematics or dash-camera program in place. This gap limits incident reconstruction capability and risk mitigation across a sizable police and municipal fleet with a documented employee vehicle-injury history.
The opportunity
Fleet modernization and EV-transition are active strategic initiatives, and the FY2027 budget reflects $9.8M in capital improvement capacity. Addressing this now reduces liability exposure, supports public safety outcomes, and aligns with the current fiscal planning cycle.

Discuss this project →Residential Parking District Technology Modernization
IT Modernization · Municipal Infrastructure
High Priority
About this project
The city is pursuing a high-priority residential parking district technology initiative currently contingent on Proposition A voter approval, which also encompasses public safety personnel funding. Without passage, procurement and IT infrastructure alignment tied to this initiative remain on hold, creating planning and budget uncertainty.
The opportunity
Proposition A approval would unlock a defined procurement pathway aligned with the city's broader IT modernization goals and a recently approved FY2027 budget with significant capital improvement capacity. Acting early in the funding cycle positions the city to move quickly and leverage cooperative purchasing programs already in place.

Discuss this project →Strengthen Credential Security Across Public Safety Systems
Cybersecurity Compliance · Public Safety IT
High Priority
About this project
An active cybersecurity compliance mandate requires annual training and certification, and a recent cyber incident affecting the emergency notification platform has exposed critical gaps in credential hygiene. Without structured password and credential management, public safety systems and sensitive municipal data remain at elevated risk.
The opportunity
The JAG Local Formula grant provides an identified funding pathway for cybersecurity solutions supporting police information systems, aligning with the current budget cycle. Incoming Information Services leadership creates a timely opening to advance credential management as a foundational compliance and operational resilience priority.
