Fleet Telematics & In-Vehicle Safety Technology
Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The county has experienced a 164% increase in auto liability insurance costs, directly linked to the absence of in-vehicle safety technology such as dash cams and telematics. This gap creates immediate financial strain and operational risk for county fleet operations and taxpayers.
The opportunity
The FY2026–2027 budget includes active fleet and Sheriff's Office equipment allocations, creating a timely funding pathway. Deploying telematics and in-vehicle safety tools now can reduce liability exposure, lower insurance costs, and demonstrate measurable ROI to county leadership.

Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The county operates a fragmented emergency notification environment with overlapping systems, an unresolved mass-notification contract, and no documented exercises or audits. A mandated EOP review by January 2027 and required NIMS adoption create firm compliance deadlines that elevate operational and public safety risk.
The opportunity
The January 2027 EOP mandate and NIMS requirements establish a near-term, non-negotiable timeline for action. The county's expansionary FY2026–2027 budget and an available $250K rural law enforcement grant provide viable funding pathways to consolidate systems and close staffing and preparedness gaps now.

IT Modernization · Cybersecurity
High Priority
About this project
The county operates Microsoft 365 and Azure without unified endpoint management, creating fragmented oversight and cybersecurity exposure across departments. Strategic IT and cybersecurity modernization initiatives are underway, but gaps in centralized control elevate operational and security risk for county staff and residents.
The opportunity
The FY2026–2027 budget reflects a 6.39% IT spending increase, and available grant funding—including BJA JAG-eligible allocations for criminal-justice information systems and technology improvements—provides direct financial backing. Acting within this budget cycle positions the county to close security gaps, strengthen compliance posture, and maximize existing funding alignment.

Discuss this project →Credential & Password Security Management
Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The county's ongoing IT and cybersecurity modernization effort has surfaced gaps in credential governance and password security, elevating risk to criminal-justice systems and sensitive county data. While general IT security practices exist, the absence of structured credential management leaves staff accounts and public-safety systems vulnerable to unauthorized access.
The opportunity
The FY2026–2027 budget reflects a 6.39% IT spending increase, and the BJA FY2026 JAG Program explicitly covers technology improvements and criminal-justice information systems, offering a direct funding pathway. Acting within the current budget and grant cycle positions the county to reduce credential-related risk while maximizing eligible reimbursement.

Discuss this project →Web Accessibility & Digital Services Compliance
Digital Accessibility · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The county faces a federally mandated deadline requiring WCAG 2.1 AA web accessibility standards by April 26, 2028. Non-compliance exposes the county to legal liability and restricts equitable public access to essential digital services.
The opportunity
The FY2026–2027 budget cycle, supported by an expansionary IT budget, is the optimal window to fund staged remediation before the 2028 deadline. Acting now reduces legal risk, ensures equitable resident access, and allows phased implementation without emergency-cost pressure.
