EOP Development & NIMS Compliance Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety Compliance
High Priority
About this project
Adrian PD has no verified Emergency Operations Plan, creating direct risk of losing funding eligibility and official plan status under NIMS and Michigan Publication 201 mandates. Past system migrations have left resident notification gaps, compounding operational and public safety risk.
The opportunity
The FY26 COPS Technology and Equipment Program grant covers eligible communication and incident systems, with the city's June 30 fiscal year-end creating a favorable procurement window. Addressing these gaps now protects funding eligibility, strengthens community resilience, and aligns with active public safety budget commitments.

Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
Past system migrations have created gaps in resident notification coverage, and fragmentation in the county's emergency alert ecosystem leaves Adrian PD without a verified, municipal-level mass notification capability. This exposes the city to significant compliance risk under NIMS implementation requirements and Michigan Publication 201 EOP currency standards.
The opportunity
The FY26 COPS Technology and Equipment Program explicitly identifies mass-notification and incident-communication systems as eligible technologies, offering a direct and time-sensitive funding path. Acting within the current grant window supports compliance, strengthens public safety outcomes, and aligns with the city's active FY budget cycle and MiDEAL cooperative purchasing membership for streamlined procurement.

Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
Social media allegations of reckless driving and internal crash reporting signal gaps in fleet oversight, with no telematics system currently in place. Without real-time vehicle monitoring, the agency faces elevated liability exposure and limited data for driver coaching and incident review.
The opportunity
The FY26 COPS Technology and Equipment Program explicitly lists vehicle telematics and fleet-safety systems as eligible, offering a strong funding path ahead of the upcoming grant deadline. A stepped-up traffic enforcement initiative and state budget support for patrol vehicles reinforce the case for acting within the current fiscal cycle.

Discuss this project →Web Accessibility & Digital Portal Compliance
Digital Accessibility · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
Website accessibility has been identified as a top urgency driver, with document and portal gaps creating legal exposure and barriers to resident access. No confirmed compliance deadline is on record, but unresolved accessibility deficiencies carry ongoing ADA-related risk for the city.
The opportunity
An open IT Manager role and active digital modernization efforts create a timely window to evaluate and advance accessibility compliance. Addressing gaps now reduces legal risk, improves equitable service delivery, and aligns with the current fiscal planning cycle.
