Emergency Operations & Mass Notification Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The city faces significant emergency preparedness gaps, including an unverifiable Emergency Operations Plan and limited transparency around its mass notification contract, while recurring natural disaster exposure continues. NIMS compliance requires annual EOP review, and current gaps elevate operational and public safety risk for residents and staff.
The opportunity
The FY 2026–2027 budget includes a $60,802 increase for Emergency Management—with approved funding for EOC technology and a citywide disaster exercise—creating a clear, time-sensitive window to address preparedness gaps. Leadership transition further opens the door for system re-evaluation, and cooperative purchasing agreements are in place to streamline procurement.

IT Modernization · Cybersecurity
High Priority
About this project
The city faces urgent IT modernization needs driven by a mandated ERP migration following end-of-support from the current platform, alongside identified gaps in endpoint protection and network resiliency. With over $2.6M in annual IT spend and a significant proposed budget increase, the operational and security risks of delayed action are substantial.
The opportunity
The proposed FY 2026–2027 budget allocates $380,000 for year-one security upgrades and a $575,127 increase to the citywide IT Fund, creating an immediate procurement window. Federal grant programs offer additional funding pathways, and cooperative purchasing agreements are in place to streamline procurement and accelerate delivery.

Discuss this project →Web Accessibility & Digital Portal Compliance
Web Accessibility · Digital Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The city is required to bring all public-facing digital portals into compliance with WCAG 2.1 Level AA accessibility standards by 2028. Existing platforms are not yet compliant, creating measurable legal, reputational, and equity risk for residents who depend on accessible digital services.
The opportunity
The 2028 compliance deadline establishes a defined action window, and the city's proposed IT fund increase signals organizational readiness to invest. Addressing accessibility now reduces legal exposure, improves equitable service delivery, and aligns with the current fiscal planning cycle.

Discuss this project →Fleet Telematics & Asset Risk Modernization
Fleet Management · Asset Lifecycle Planning
High Priority
About this project
The city operates an aging fleet without a telematics solution in place, creating a preventive-control gap in asset visibility, maintenance planning, and driver safety oversight. While no acute incident has occurred, the absence of real-time data increases long-term liability and lifecycle cost risk for public operations.
The opportunity
The PROTECT grant program represents a potential funding pathway for fleet telematics initiatives, and confirmed cooperative purchasing agreements are available to simplify and accelerate procurement. Advancing a phased pilot now positions the city to reduce asset risk and align with the upcoming fiscal planning cycle.

IT Modernization · Operational Continuity
High Priority
About this project
The city faces a non-discretionary ERP migration driven by the software vendor ending support, creating immediate operational continuity risk across all city departments. Without action, critical administrative and service delivery functions are exposed to instability, security gaps, and potential compliance failures.
The opportunity
The end-of-support deadline creates a defined decision window, and the proposed FY 2026–2027 IT fund increase of $575,127 is positioned to support this transition. Acting now allows the city to modernize on a planned timeline rather than under emergency conditions, protecting both public services and fiscal stewardship.
