Fleet Safety & Telematics Program Launch
Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The township has active fleet procurement underway — including a DPW truck RFP and budget-approved police vehicle purchases — but lacks a documented dash-cam or telematics program, creating liability exposure for disputed claims and driver behavior incidents. A 26.78% rise in municipal risk insurance payments signals growing financial and operational risk without intervention.
The opportunity
Dedicated fleet capital funds are already approved in the 2026 budget, and time-bound solicitations create a procurement window within the next 90 days. Cooperative purchasing agreements available to the township can accelerate acquisition, reduce administrative burden, and align fleet safety improvements with the current fiscal cycle.

Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The township lacks a publicly available Emergency Operations Plan, has no designated Emergency Management Coordinator, and depends on county-level mass notification with no local control. Recent flood declarations and a pending NIMS compliance mandate elevate both operational and regulatory risk for residents and staff.
The opportunity
Active grant windows—including HSGP, BRIC, and NGWSP—offer funded pathways to close preparedness gaps with limited local match required. Acting within the current fiscal cycle aligns investment with compliance deadlines, disaster-declaration momentum, and the township's $12,000 emergency management tech budget.
Mass Notification Independence for Township Emergency Alerting
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The township currently depends on county-level mass notification infrastructure, leaving residents and staff without a localized, independent alerting capability during emergencies. This gap, compounded by documented preparedness deficiencies and recent flood declarations, elevates operational and public safety risk.
The opportunity
Active grant programs supporting emergency management infrastructure — including hazard mitigation and preparedness initiatives — present a near-term funding pathway with limited local match requirements. Addressing this now aligns with NIMS compliance obligations and strengthens the township's ability to protect residents independently of county systems.
Strengthen Identity and Endpoint Security Posture
Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The township's active Microsoft 365 environment may lack layered identity protection and centralized endpoint management, leaving credential and device security gaps. The absence of documented cybersecurity programs and a fragmented technology ecosystem elevates operational and compliance risk for staff and public data.
The opportunity
Incoming township leadership presents a timely opening to establish a modern security baseline aligned with state cybersecurity mandates and the current fiscal planning cycle. Addressing identity and endpoint gaps now reduces breach exposure and supports responsible stewardship of public systems and resident data.
