Emergency Alerting & Operations Plan Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The city's emergency management posture is fragmented, with an EOP of unknown age, alert coverage limited by voluntary resident enrollment, and documented public criticism over incident communications. Active state compliance mandates require annual EM plan reviews, and the current split notification environment elevates both operational and regulatory risk.
The opportunity
The FY2027 budget includes $827,000 designated for public-safety equipment replacement, with adoption scheduled for September 8, 2026, creating a near-term procurement window. Consolidating the notification ecosystem and closing EOP gaps now directly advances compliance, improves resident coverage, and aligns with approved funding priorities.
Web Accessibility & Public Website Compliance Modernization
Web Accessibility · Digital Equity
High Priority
About this project
The city faces a hard WCAG 2.1 Level AA compliance deadline of April 26, 2027, with an active initiative to redesign the public website for accessibility. Unresolved document accessibility gaps elevate legal and equity risk for residents relying on digital public services.
The opportunity
The FY27 budget adoption on September 8, 2026 opens a near-term funding window to act before procurement timelines compress. Addressing accessibility now reduces legal exposure, advances digital equity, and ensures public-facing services meet federal and state compliance standards ahead of the 2027 deadline.
Cybersecurity Modernization and Password Governance Compliance
Cybersecurity Compliance · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
An active Texas cybersecurity compliance cycle has surfaced a specific gap in password-security governance, while a broader initiative to modernize remote connectivity and replace endpoint detection tools is underway. Unresolved gaps elevate operational and audit risk across city systems and staff.
The opportunity
A JAG grant aligned with criminal-justice IT management and cybersecurity modernization provides an identified funding path ahead of the FY27 budget cycle. Acting now supports compliance, reduces breach exposure, and leverages existing budget capacity within a substantial annual IT spend.

Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The city faces a $10.5 million fleet replacement funding gap alongside public complaints about police driving behavior, creating measurable liability and operational risk. Without improved fleet visibility and accountability tools, the city's ability to manage assets responsibly and protect residents remains constrained.
The opportunity
The FY2027 budget includes $785,000 for vehicle and equipment replacement, with active cooperative purchasing agreements already in place, creating a clear and timely procurement path. Addressing fleet management now aligns with approved funding cycles and supports responsible stewardship of public safety resources.
Password Security & Identity Governance Modernization
Cybersecurity Compliance · Identity & Access Management
High Priority
About this project
An active Texas cybersecurity compliance cycle has identified a specific gap in password-security governance, driving an evaluation to replace the current password management tool. Failure to act risks non-compliance with state mandates and exposes city systems and sensitive data to credential-based threats.
The opportunity
Compliance mandate deadlines tied to the Texas cybersecurity cycle create near-term procurement urgency, and the JAG grant provides an identified funding path for criminal-justice IT and cybersecurity modernization. Acting within the current fiscal window aligns procurement with available funding and reduces compliance and operational risk.
