Emergency Operations Plan Development and Gap Remediation
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The authority lacks an authority-specific Emergency Operations Plan, and county-level emergency management capacity is limited. Recent flash flooding events have exposed critical preparedness gaps, elevating compliance, safety, and operational risk for residents and staff.
The opportunity
Active organizational investment in emergency management roles signals near-term readiness to act, and grant programs such as BRIC and HSGP are explicitly aligned to this project area. Advancing EOP development now addresses overdue compliance mandates and positions the authority to leverage available federal funding.
Mass Notification System Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The authority lacks a modern mass-notification system, limiting timely resident communication during emergencies such as recent flash flooding events. This gap undermines emergency preparedness mandates, including EOP review requirements, and elevates operational and public safety risk.
The opportunity
Active emergency management planning efforts and new EM/911 leadership create an immediate window for action. BRIC and HSGP grant programs align directly with this project type, supporting investment with limited local match and strengthening community resilience ahead of the next fiscal cycle.
Web Accessibility & Digital Portal Compliance
Digital Accessibility · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The Village has documented WCAG 2.1 accessibility gaps across its web properties, creating legal exposure and barriers to resident access under ADA mandates. The rollout of an online utility account management tool further expands the scope of digital services requiring accessible, compliant design.
The opportunity
Active WCAG 2.1 goals signal a near-term initiative with defined scope, making this an ideal moment to align remediation efforts with the current fiscal cycle. Addressing compliance now reduces legal risk, broadens equitable resident access, and positions the Village ahead of expanding digital service delivery requirements.

Discuss this project →Fleet Safety & Vehicle Usage Tracking Implementation
Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
No formal fleet safety or telematics program is currently in place, creating gaps in driver accountability and incident evidence preservation. The absence of documented safety technology increases operational liability and limits visibility into vehicle usage across public works and infrastructure operations.
The opportunity
Funding increases tied to water/sewer and road recovery infrastructure may support fleet-related upgrades as part of broader operational improvements, and cooperative purchasing options simplify procurement. Addressing this gap now strengthens driver safety, reduces incident liability, and aligns with the upcoming fiscal planning cycle.

Discuss this project →Wastewater SCADA Modernization and Backup Power Resilience
Utility Infrastructure · Operational Resilience
High Priority
About this project
Aging SCADA systems and insufficient backup power create operational vulnerabilities in critical wastewater infrastructure, risking service continuity for residents. Without modernization, utilities face heightened exposure to system failures, regulatory scrutiny, and reduced capacity to respond during emergencies or severe weather events.
The opportunity
Significant budget increases for water and sewer infrastructure signal available funding aligned with the current fiscal cycle, reducing barriers to action. Advancing SCADA replacement and generator deployment now strengthens grid-independent operations, supports resilience mandates, and positions the utility for state and federal infrastructure funding eligibility.
