Emergency Operations Plan & Preparedness Development
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The fire department lacks a publicly available Emergency Operations Plan, documented exercises, and completed audits, creating significant operational and legal exposure. A recent tornado incident heightens urgency, and NIMS adherence remains an unmet compliance mandate for the department and surrounding township.
The opportunity
An active RFP with an April 2025 deadline and a $95,000 FEMA grant already in place create a near-term window to act. HSGP and BRIC funding paths are identified, and addressing gaps now reduces compliance risk while protecting the community before the next severe weather event.
Mass Notification System Implementation
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The township lacks a documented, modern mass notification system, creating critical gaps in public and staff alerting during emergencies. A recent tornado event has exposed these preparedness deficiencies, and NIMS compliance requirements elevate the urgency for a reliable, interoperable alerting solution.
The opportunity
Federal preparedness grants, including HSGP and BRIC, provide a direct funding path with strong alignment to this project scope. Acting within the current grant cycle supports compliance, reduces incident response risk, and strengthens community safety outcomes ahead of the next severe weather season.
Web Accessibility & Digital Portal Compliance
Web Accessibility · Digital Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The township faces active WCAG 2.0 A/AA compliance mandates with known website accessibility gaps, creating legal and operational exposure. A partial foundation exists through current platform and document tools, but unresolved gaps leave public-facing services inaccessible to residents with disabilities.
The opportunity
An active compliance mandate—without a hard deadline—creates ongoing legal risk that grows with each audit cycle or resident complaint. Addressing accessibility gaps now improves equitable service delivery, aligns with current IT modernization efforts, and may be eligible for state or cooperative funding vehicles.
Fleet Telematics & Vehicle Safety Modernization
Fleet Safety · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The department lacks documented telematics or dashcam systems across its fleet, creating gaps in safety monitoring and incident documentation. Year-over-year insurance cost increases of approximately 66% (general) and 28% (workers' compensation) signal mounting financial pressure on public safety operations.
The opportunity
Active fleet investment and rising insurance costs create a clear cost-justification case for safety monitoring solutions eligible through cooperative purchasing vehicles. Addressing this gap now supports budget stewardship, reduces liability exposure, and aligns with ongoing public safety spending priorities.
