Emergency Operations Plan Compliance & Preparedness Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The district lacks a publicly documented current Emergency Operations Plan (EOP) and an updated Hazard Mitigation Action Plan, while recent federal emergency declarations have occurred without documented after-action reviews. Texas Government Code §418.106 mandates emergency plan currency, and fragmented notification and dispatch systems compound the compliance and operational risk to residents and first responders.
The opportunity
Existing capital budget allocations and dedicated emergency management technology spending signal near-term funding availability to close critical preparedness gaps before the next fiscal cycle. Addressing these deficiencies now reduces statutory non-compliance exposure, strengthens community resilience, and positions the district to leverage state and federal preparedness funding streams.

Discuss this project →Fleet Telematics & Ambulance Safety Program
Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The district operates a 7-ambulance fleet with high utilization and significant driving exposure, yet no telematics program is in place. A $20,000 budget for in-vehicle cameras has been approved but remains undeployed, leaving safety gaps and contributing to rising insurance costs.
The opportunity
Fleet modernization is a funded, top strategic priority with procurement-ready status and cooperative purchasing access to reduce acquisition timelines. The Texas Rural Ambulance Service Grants Program has awarded $350,000 to the county for ambulance purchases and equipment, providing a direct funding pathway. Acting within the current fiscal cycle maximizes grant alignment and addresses insurance and liability risk before exposure grows.

Discuss this project →Website Migration & Digital Accessibility Modernization
Digital Accessibility · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The district's current website platform presents escalating cost risk if migration is not completed by end of 2026, and existing accessibility gaps leave the public-facing digital presence out of alignment with accessibility standards. Budget approval is largely secured, with a final board motion pending.
The opportunity
A hard end-of-2026 deadline creates clear urgency to act within the current fiscal cycle before cost escalation takes effect. With funding largely in place and no incumbent solution to displace, this is a low-friction, high-impact opportunity to improve public access and digital equity.

Discuss this project →Cybersecurity Modernization and IT Security Uplift
IT Modernization · Cybersecurity
High Priority
About this project
The district has approved cybersecurity training, signaling a recognized gap in security posture and IT operational readiness. With $377,000 in annual IT and software spend already committed, the need to formalize and strengthen cybersecurity infrastructure is both funded and operationally urgent.
The opportunity
This initiative is actively funded, with the JAG grant identified as a conditional pathway to offset cybersecurity investment costs. Acting within the current fiscal cycle allows the district to align budget commitments with training momentum and reduce exposure before vulnerabilities are exploited.
