The FY27–FY28 budget sets a milestone to “finalize individual Department and Division Business Continuity Program plans, to improve operational resiliency to physical and cybersecurity incidents, by June 2027.” This indicates that the district is building or updating continuity and incident‑response plans tied to its operational technology (SCADA/DCS) and enterprise IT, without naming a specific tool or consultant. The Finance Department budget also notes rising IT support services, hardware, and software costs, and the capital program funds SCADA equipment and DCS/PLC replacements. This constellation suggests active planning but no fully decided solutions for continuity, cyber, and recovery. Vendors in IT resilience, cyber risk assessment, incident response planning, OT/SCADA security, and continuity management platforms can help structure the program, provide tabletop exercises, and align cyber controls with the district’s capital upgrades.
The work spans both physical and cybersecurity risk, touching SCADA, DCS, and enterprise IT; multipl...
The Esparto Fire Protection District’s FY 2026-27 budget allocates 15,000 under the line item “PROF & SPEC SVC-INFO TECH SVC.” This indicates planned spending on external IT services such as system support, software, network maintenance, or technology projects for the district. No existing provider is named, and the worksheet does not specify whether this is a renewal or new engagement, leaving the decision open. This creates an entry point for IT vendors specializing in public safety—such as managed services, cybersecurity, CAD/RMS integrations, or workstation/network support—to propose services that fit the allocated budget before the district commits to a particular vendor.
This IT services line sits within a broader services and supplies budget of 317,671, suggesting ongo...
The July 1, 2026 Planning Commission agenda lists "Data Centers" under Old Business, indicating an ongoing policy and land-use discussion about how the city will handle current or future data center developments. While no specific project, vendor, or ordinance text is provided, repeated agenda placement suggests the city is still shaping its approach to siting, permitting, and regulating such facilities. This is a pre-RFP signal that the city may soon formalize zoning standards, infrastructure requirements, and possibly incentives or conditions for data center projects. Vendors in planning, engineering, power/cooling design, and IT facilities consulting can position themselves to assist with impact studies, design standards, or future developer proposals as the commission refines its policy direction.
Data centers item appears as Old Business, suggesting prior discussions and potential follow-up acti...
