Emergency Operations Plan & Preparedness Program
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The township lacks a publicly available Emergency Operations Plan, a county hazard mitigation plan, and documented exercises, leaving residents and staff exposed. Recent flood events and media scrutiny have amplified these gaps, while unmet NIMS and state/federal EM mandates elevate compliance and operational risk.
The opportunity
The approved 2026 budget and active 2024–2029 Capital Improvement Plan create a near-term decision window, and the Homeland Security Grant Program offers a strong funding path with limited local match. Acting now addresses compliance mandates, strengthens community resilience, and positions the township ahead of potential leadership transitions at the county EM level.

Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The county and city currently operate separate notification platforms, creating a fragmented alerting environment that limits coordinated emergency communication. This split ecosystem introduces operational inefficiencies and compliance risk tied to NIMS and state emergency management mandates.
The opportunity
An active budget cycle and federal emergency management funding streams create a timely window to unify alerting under a single platform. Consolidation strengthens emergency preparedness compliance, reduces operational risk, and improves public safety outcomes for residents across both jurisdictions.

Discuss this project →Fleet Telematics & Vehicle Safety Modernization
Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The township lacks dash cameras and telematics across fire and road operations, creating measurable safety and liability exposure. A federally funded new fire engine and expanded fire contract are growing fleet scope, making instrumentation an immediate operational need.
The opportunity
EPA Clean Vehicle grants explicitly allow telematics as an eligible cost, and COPS TEP funding supports law enforcement fleet needs — both aligning with the active 2026 budget cycle and Capital Improvement Plan. Cooperative purchasing programs can further accelerate procurement within the current decision window.

Discuss this project →Web Accessibility & Digital Portal Compliance
Digital Accessibility · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
Public-facing digital portals may not meet ADA accessibility standards, creating potential legal exposure and barriers for residents with disabilities. While no formal mandate has been documented, early-stage gaps left unaddressed can escalate into compliance findings or litigation.
The opportunity
Proactively remediating accessibility gaps ahead of formal mandates reduces legal risk and aligns with the upcoming fiscal planning cycle. Addressing these improvements now supports equitable public access and positions the entity ahead of potential regulatory scrutiny.
