Emergency Operations Plan Development and Mass Notification Readiness
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The township lacks a publicly available Emergency Operations Plan, a designated Emergency Management Coordinator, and a dedicated mass-notification system — relying instead on county alerts and internal email. These gaps create significant compliance exposure under NIMS mandates and risk the loss of preparedness fund eligibility.
The opportunity
Multiple federal grant programs with mid-2026 deadlines explicitly support emergency communications, mass notification, and EOC systems, representing a well-defined and time-sensitive funding window. Acting now aligns with the active FY2026–2027 budget cycle and positions the township to close critical compliance and operational readiness gaps.
Mass Notification System Consolidation
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The township currently splits emergency notifications between township email and county alert systems, with no dedicated mass-notification solution, limiting reliability and resident reach during critical events. This fragmented approach, combined with the absence of a formal Emergency Management Coordinator, creates measurable gaps in NIMS compliance and emergency preparedness.
The opportunity
Federal grant programs including HSGP and EMPG, with mid-2026 deadlines, explicitly support emergency communications and mass-notification consolidation. Acting within the current budget and grant cycle reduces compliance risk, strengthens public safety outcomes, and leverages cooperative purchasing vehicles to simplify procurement.
Web Accessibility & ADA Compliance Remediation
Web Accessibility · ADA Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The township faces documented WCAG and ADA accessibility gaps on its public-facing website and meeting platforms, drawing local news coverage and public comment. Unresolved gaps create legal liability and reputational risk while limiting equitable access to government services for residents with disabilities.
The opportunity
The FY2026–2027 budget adoption cycle, with a public hearing in February 2026, creates a near-term funding window aligned with active council discussions on remediation. Addressing accessibility now reduces legal exposure, advances equity, and positions the township to act within the current planning cycle.

Fleet Safety · Public Works Operations
High Priority
About this project
A serious incident involving a township heavy truck has exposed the absence of dash cameras and telematics, creating unmitigated safety, liability, and operational risk. Without fleet monitoring in place, the township lacks the visibility needed to protect drivers, residents, and public assets.
The opportunity
The COPS TEP grant offers a potential funding pathway for fleet safety technology, and cooperative purchasing programs can accelerate compliant procurement within the current budget cycle. Acting now reduces liability exposure and positions the township to close a critical operational gap before the next fiscal year.
