Emergency Operations Plan & Public Alert System Development
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The district lacks a current Emergency Operations Plan, district-controlled public alerting, and documented HSEEP exercises—creating significant operational and compliance exposure. Annual TDEM reporting (due January 2027) and a financial audit (due June 2027) reinforce the urgency of closing these emergency management gaps.
The opportunity
EMPG and HSGP grant programs offer viable funding paths for emergency preparedness initiatives, reducing reliance on the district's dedicated public safety tech budget. Acting within the current fiscal cycle positions the district to meet compliance deadlines and establish independent, district-controlled emergency response capabilities.
Web Accessibility & Digital Portal Compliance
Web Accessibility · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The district has identified WCAG 2.1 Level AA compliance gaps across its public-facing web presence, with a federal deadline of April 2028 and a website migration due before end of 2026 to avoid cost increases. Unresolved gaps risk ADA non-compliance, reduced public access to district services, and exposure to federal enforcement.
The opportunity
FY2026–2027 budget includes $37,600 dedicated to technology, and the website migration deadline creates a near-term procurement window before costs escalate. Cooperative purchasing vehicles are available to streamline procurement, and the initiative aligns with a high-priority, TAC CIR-recognized strategic goal.

Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
This emergency services district operates a large, high-usage apparatus fleet with no documented telematics or dash camera systems, creating a visibility and evidentiary gap and asset-management exposure. Dedicated FY2026–2027 budget lines for vehicle maintenance, operations, and equipment replacement signal readiness to act.
The opportunity
Fire apparatus fleet modernization is an identified high-priority strategic initiative with aligned budget allocations and cooperative purchasing vehicles available to streamline procurement. Addressing this gap now reduces liability exposure, strengthens operational oversight, and positions the district to steward public safety assets responsibly within the current fiscal cycle.

IT Modernization · Cybersecurity Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The district has identified active gaps in cybersecurity posture and password security mandate compliance, operating within a broad existing technology ecosystem. These unresolved gaps elevate operational and compliance risk, threatening continuity of public safety services and exposing the district to audit findings.
The opportunity
The FY2026–2027 budget includes a dedicated technology allocation, and EMPG and HSGP grants explicitly support eligible cybersecurity initiatives. Acting within the current budget and grant cycle positions the district to close compliance gaps, reduce operational risk, and steward public funds responsibly.
