Modernize Emergency Notification and Multi-Agency Coordination
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The Township faces documented gaps in emergency notification coverage, including communication channel limitations exposed during Hurricane Beryl and multi-agency coordination challenges. An active mandate under Texas Government Code §418.106 requires an updated Emergency Operations Plan, and subscriber transition risk in the current platform elevates operational and compliance exposure.
The opportunity
A dedicated $916K public safety technology budget and a JAG grant window closing September/October 2026 provide a clear, near-term funding pathway. Acting within the current fiscal cycle addresses compliance requirements, reduces resident risk, and positions the Township ahead of leadership transitions that could delay future procurement.

Cybersecurity · CJIS Compliance
High Priority
About this project
A CJIS password policy mandate with a 2027–2028 compliance deadline creates a hard regulatory driver for privileged access and password management improvements. Without action, the Township risks non-compliance with law enforcement data security requirements, exposing sensitive systems and jeopardizing criminal justice data access.
The opportunity
The FY2026 IT budget reflects a 9.7% spending increase, with dedicated cybersecurity funding already in place. The JAG grant program, with a September/October 2026 deadline, offers an aligned funding pathway for law enforcement cybersecurity initiatives. Acting within the current fiscal cycle positions the Township to meet the compliance deadline while maximizing available grant and budget resources.

Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
A recent significant patrol-vehicle crash and a large, fragmented fleet tracking ecosystem highlight gaps in driver safety monitoring, GPS telematics, and integrated dash camera coverage. Consolidating split fleet systems reduces operational risk and supports accountability across law enforcement and transit operations.
The opportunity
FY2026 budget increases for law enforcement and vehicle camera modernization provide direct funding alignment, and the Grants for Buses and Bus Facilities Infrastructure Programs deadline in September/October 2026 creates a near-term window. Acting now leverages approved budgets, cooperative procurement, and grant eligibility to advance public safety outcomes.

Web Accessibility · Digital Equity
High Priority
About this project
The Township faces a WCAG 2.1 Level AA compliance mandate with a hard deadline of April 26, 2028, creating legal exposure and public access risk across its digital portals. Residents relying on township services online may face barriers, and non-compliance carries reputational and regulatory consequences.
The opportunity
The defined 2028 deadline creates a clear procurement window for phased implementation, and the FY2026 IT budget—up nearly 10%—supports technology investment now. Acting early reduces competitive risk, enables staged delivery, and ensures equitable digital access for all residents ahead of the mandate.

IT Modernization · Endpoint Management
High Priority
About this project
The Township's FY2026 IT budget reflects a 9.7% spending increase across computer support, software maintenance, cloud hosting, and managed detection and response — signaling an active modernization cycle. Fragmented endpoint visibility and rising operational costs create continuity and security risks for staff and public-facing services.
The opportunity
Budget-approved FY2026 IT modernization funding and an active JAG grant window (deadline Sept/Oct 2026) create a timely, low-barrier path to consolidate IT operations tooling. Acting within this fiscal cycle maximizes available funding and reduces compounding operational and security risk.
