Emergency Operations Plan Development & Compliance
Emergency Management · Grant Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The authority faces significant emergency preparedness gaps, including an unknown EOP review status and past risks of grant fund loss due to project delays, compounded by recent local and county emergency declarations. Michigan EOP/NIMS compliance mandates create direct regulatory pressure, and unresolved gaps elevate operational and public safety risk.
The opportunity
Active FY2026–27 budget planning and strong alignment with FEMA HSGP and BRIC grant programs create a near-term window to address compliance gaps with available external funding. Acting now reduces regulatory exposure, strengthens community resilience, and positions the authority to secure grant dollars before the current cycle closes.

Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The county's incumbent mass notification platform is undergoing active upgrades alongside broader emergency management initiatives, including EOC and EOP maintenance. Gaps in notification infrastructure, unknown EOP review status, and Michigan EOP/NIMS compliance mandates elevate operational and public safety risk.
The opportunity
FY2026–27 budget planning is underway, and FEMA grant programs such as HSGP and BRIC offer eligible funding pathways for notification and preparedness infrastructure. Acting now aligns with active county-level emergency management initiatives and reduces compliance and continuity risk.

Digital Accessibility · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The authority has identified gaps in website accessibility and digital services that conflict with ADA and WCAG 2.1 standards, creating legal exposure and barriers to public access. An improved document library and digital services portal are needed to address these risks as part of an active, ongoing initiative.
The opportunity
Active FY2026–27 budget planning and a confirmed cooperative purchasing agreement provide a timely and streamlined path to procurement. Addressing these compliance gaps now reduces legal risk, improves equitable public access, and aligns with current fiscal planning cycles.

Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The authority routinely responds to highway incidents without dash cameras or telematics systems, creating measurable safety and liability exposure for personnel and vehicles. An aging fleet compounds modernization needs and increases operational risk during emergency responses.
The opportunity
Active FY2026–27 budget planning and partial grant alignment through the JAG program create a timely funding pathway for this initiative. Addressing the telematics gap now reduces liability exposure, supports personnel safety, and leverages cooperative procurement to streamline acquisition.
