Emergency Operations Plan Compliance & Readiness
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The township's Emergency Operations Plan is formally overdue, with no publicly available plan and limited evidence of required exercises, creating significant compliance exposure. Federal grant eligibility—including hazard mitigation funding—requires a current EOP, NIMS adoption, and documented hazard-mitigation project tracking.
The opportunity
Incoming Fire Department leadership and an approved 2026 capital IT budget line signal organizational readiness and near-term funding availability. Grant programs supporting emergency preparedness and hazard mitigation are accessible now, making this an optimal window to close compliance gaps and strengthen community resilience.
Mass Notification System Consolidation
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The township currently relies on fragmented, county-level notification systems with no Shelby-specific mass notification contract, limiting reach and reliability during incidents. This split ecosystem, combined with an overdue Local Emergency Operations Plan, elevates compliance risk under FEMA Hazard Mitigation Plan mandates and reduces operational readiness for residents and staff.
The opportunity
The 2026 IT capital budget and FEMA-driven EOP compliance requirements create a well-timed window to consolidate notification infrastructure. Grant programs aligned with hazard mitigation and emergency preparedness may offset costs, and acting within the current fiscal cycle reduces both audit exposure and incident response risk.
Fleet Safety & Telematics Modernization
Fleet Safety · Public Safety Technology
High Priority
About this project
A recent officer-involved rollover and a prior ambulance collision expose critical fleet safety gaps across public safety and public works operations. The need for dash cameras, telematics, and driver monitoring has been identified, with no current fleet management solution in place.
The opportunity
Dedicated law enforcement technology grant funding provides a clear path for fleet safety procurement, and capital improvement planning for the police department signals near-term budget alignment. Acting within the current fiscal cycle reduces liability exposure and strengthens public safety outcomes.

IT Modernization · Endpoint Management
High Priority
About this project
The township's adopted 2026 budget includes a dedicated five-year capital outlay line for IT, signaling allocated funds for endpoint management and security tooling. Strategic digital services initiatives—including records management and public-facing platforms—underscore the need to evaluate and strengthen IT infrastructure now.
The opportunity
Budget-approved capital funding and a five-year planning horizon create an immediate and recurring procurement window aligned with the current fiscal cycle. Acting within this cycle ensures continuity of digital services, reduces operational risk, and maximizes the value of already-allocated public funds.
