City-Level Emergency Operations Plan & Preparedness
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The city lacks a published Emergency Operations Plan, a dedicated mass-notification system, and documented exercises, with emergency management currently outsourced to the county. This gap creates operational and compliance risk, including ineligibility for key emergency management grants without NIMS implementation.
The opportunity
Grant deadlines in July 2026 (including HSGP and JAG) offer near-term funding paths with strong alignment to emergency preparedness investments. Acting within the current fiscal window closes critical compliance gaps, establishes city-level response capacity, and positions the entity for sustained grant eligibility.
Mass Notification System Implementation
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
No documented city-level mass notification solution exists, leaving residents and staff without reliable alerting during emergencies or critical incidents. This gap compounds broader emergency preparedness deficiencies, including the absence of a published EOP and no record of recent exercises.
The opportunity
Grant deadlines in July 2026 create a near-term funding window aligned with emergency management mandates, including NIMS compliance requirements tied to grant eligibility. Acting within the current fiscal cycle positions the city to close a critical public safety gap while maximizing available external funding.
Endpoint Security & IT Compliance Modernization
Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
A formal endpoint management compliance mandate requires remediation by December 31, 2026, with active infrastructure initiatives — including a Windows 11 migration, citywide video security upgrade, and SCADA network hardware procurement — compounding operational and security risk. Existing Microsoft 365 infrastructure provides a foundation for integration, but gaps in centralized endpoint oversight leave systems and public data exposed.
The opportunity
Grant funding has been identified as the strongest path to support IT management and cybersecurity investments, with relevant windows aligning to the upcoming fiscal cycle and the hard 2026 compliance deadline. Acting now enables the city to leverage cooperative purchasing options to accelerate procurement, reduce risk, and protect critical public infrastructure before the mandate takes effect.
Strengthen Cybersecurity and Identity Credential Management
Cybersecurity · Identity & Access Management
High Priority
About this project
The city's existing Microsoft 365 environment and an active HRIS procurement create compounding credential and identity management risks that require structured cybersecurity controls. Without aligned endpoint and access management, sensitive systems and staff data remain exposed to breach, compliance gaps, and operational disruption.
The opportunity
Multiple grant opportunities with July 2026 deadlines—including JAG, COPS TEP, and HSGP—offer strong, eligible funding paths for cybersecurity initiatives, reducing local budget burden. Acting within the current fiscal window aligns investment with active IT procurement cycles and endpoint compliance mandates due by end of 2026.
Web Accessibility & Digital Portal Compliance
Web Accessibility · Digital Equity
High Priority
About this project
The city faces a WCAG compliance deadline of April 2027, with an extended remediation window through April 2028, while simultaneously undertaking a website redesign. Current accessibility gaps expose the city to legal liability and restrict equitable digital access for residents.
The opportunity
The active website redesign creates a cost-effective window to embed accessibility standards into new infrastructure rather than retrofit later. Addressing compliance now aligns with the upcoming fiscal cycle and supports equitable service delivery ahead of staged regulatory deadlines.

Public Safety · Fleet Management
High Priority
About this project
Active procurement is underway for police evidence and fleet technology, with a confirmed August 2026 go-live date. Delays in implementation risk operational gaps in evidence integrity, fleet oversight, and public safety accountability for residents and staff.
The opportunity
With budget allocated and a defined start date, this procurement is time-sensitive and aligned with the current fiscal cycle. Grant pathways such as JAG and COPS TEP may offset local costs, making timely action critical to capturing available funding and meeting the go-live deadline.
