A petition was submitted to initiate rulemaking for a new statewide emergency communication rule covering adult day programs and residential providers. This is an early policy move, so no vendor has been selected yet, but it creates a future compliance and communications need if the rule advances. The practical next step is watching whether the board opens rulemaking.

Appendix D lays out the district's communicable disease continuation of operations plan required by state law. It covers essential staff, telecommuting, staggered shifts, PPE supply, disinfection, contact tracing, remote work, and emergency housing options. This is a compliance-driven planning artifact rather than a procurement award, but it creates recurring needs in technology, PPE, cleaning, and continuity planning. The plan was included in the August 19, 2026 adoption.
