Formalize Emergency Operations Plan and Notification Framework
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The City of Milan lacks a documented Emergency Operations Plan, has no record of exercises or audits, and relies on an unmanaged mass notification system limited to police text alerts. These gaps create significant operational risk and non-compliance exposure that directly affects resident safety and emergency response readiness.
The opportunity
Recent public safety investments and active strategic initiatives around FEMA safe rooms, hazard mitigation, and mass notification signal strong near-term alignment and budget willingness. Cooperative purchasing agreements provide an accessible procurement path, and addressing these gaps now reduces compliance exposure ahead of the upcoming fiscal cycle.

Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The city operates a fragmented mass notification ecosystem with overlapping, uncoordinated alert channels across city and county systems, leaving public outreach unreliable during emergencies. No audits or exercises have been conducted to validate system effectiveness, creating measurable gaps in emergency preparedness and public safety continuity.
The opportunity
With no incumbent system to displace and active leadership prioritization of emergency management initiatives, this is an open window to consolidate notification capabilities. Recent public safety investments signal budget willingness, and cooperative purchasing agreements provide a streamlined procurement path aligned with the current fiscal cycle.

ADA Compliance · Digital Services Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The city faces an unresolved need to achieve WCAG 2.1 compliance under ADA Title II mandates ahead of the 2028 deadline, with fragmented digital services and multiple payment portals compounding accessibility gaps. An existing policy signals awareness, but the modernization effort remains incomplete, elevating legal and equity risk for residents.
The opportunity
The firm 2028 ADA Title II deadline, combined with active annexation and budget planning cycles, creates a defined window to act before compliance risk escalates. Cooperative purchasing agreements provide a streamlined procurement path, and this initiative aligns with current fiscal planning for cost-effective, phased implementation.

Discuss this project →Fleet Modernization and Vehicle Safety Infrastructure
Fleet Management · Public Infrastructure
High Priority
About this project
The city is actively replacing fleet assets and expanding paving programs, but gaps in vehicle visibility and incident documentation create unresolved liability exposure. Without clear camera coverage or telematics data, the city lacks defensible records to manage fleet-related risk effectively.
The opportunity
Active fleet replacement creates a natural integration point for safety and visibility tools, and federal transit funding may offer a partial pathway with local match. Addressing these gaps during the current transition avoids retrofitting costs and strengthens operational accountability before incidents occur.
