Emergency Operations Plan Development & Preparedness
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
Oxford Township lacks a publicly available Emergency Operations Plan, has conducted limited local exercises, and faces urgent compliance mandates tied to the Oxford High School shooting after-action report, which identified critical gaps in response protocols, training, and coordination. NIMS compliance requirements compound the operational and legal risk to the township.
The opportunity
The after-action report creates immediate, compliance-driven pressure to close emergency preparedness gaps, and the Homeland Security Grant Program offers a near-term funding path for preparedness activities, equipment, and incident management systems. Acting within the current grant cycle aligns remediation efforts with available external funding and ongoing county-level emergency management investment.
Mass Notification System Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
Oakland County and its townships rely on a fragmented mass notification infrastructure, with after-action findings from the Oxford High School shooting identifying critical coordination and coverage deficiencies. Compliance mandates, NIMS requirements, and documented emergency preparedness gaps elevate operational and public safety risk across the region.
The opportunity
After-action compliance mandates and active HSGP grant eligibility—which explicitly covers mass notification and preparedness—create a funded, time-sensitive path to address these gaps. Acting within the current grant cycle strengthens regional coordination, reduces compliance exposure, and improves emergency outcomes for residents and staff.
Fleet Telematics & Vehicle Camera Expansion
Fleet Management · Public Safety Technology
High Priority
About this project
The township has approved and begun deploying vehicle cameras and telematics, confirming an active budget commitment to fleet safety technology. The current deployment is underway with an existing vendor, presenting a timely window for expansion or competitive displacement.
The opportunity
Approved budgets and ongoing vehicle purchases signal continued fleet investment through the current fiscal cycle. Evaluating alternative or expanded solutions now allows the township to optimize safety outcomes, leverage cooperative purchasing vehicles, and align with GIS and public safety infrastructure already in place.

Digital Accessibility · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The township recently launched a new WordPress-based website without an active WCAG 2.1 remediation plan, meaning accessibility gaps may already exist in the live environment. Without a structured remediation roadmap, the township faces growing legal exposure and risks excluding residents with disabilities from essential public services.
The opportunity
The new website's early lifecycle presents a cost-effective window to remediate accessibility gaps before they compound and trigger formal complaints or litigation. Addressing compliance now aligns with the current operational cycle and supports equitable, uninterrupted public access to township services.
Strengthening Cybersecurity Through Password Management Compliance
Cybersecurity · IT Compliance
High Priority
About this project
Oxford Township's constrained IT budget of approximately $38,500 annually limits proactive cybersecurity investment, and no active password management solution has been identified. Cybersecurity password requirements represent an unaddressed compliance area that could become urgent following a mandate or leadership directive.
The opportunity
Addressing password management now, ahead of a compliance trigger, reduces breach risk and positions the township for cost-effective remediation within existing IT budget cycles. Solutions in this space are often eligible for state cybersecurity grant programs, easing the burden on constrained local funds.
