Airport Emergency Operations Plan Gap Remediation
Emergency Management · Aviation Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The authority lacks a defined airport-specific Emergency Operations Plan, with identified operational deficiencies creating preparedness uncertainty. HSEEP exercise and EOP review cycle mandates are overdue, and media scrutiny alongside an active EMPG grant elevate both compliance and reputational risk.
The opportunity
A pending multi-million dollar FEMA grant and HSGP eligibility create a near-term funding window aligned with the current fiscal cycle. A recent leadership transition and high initiative urgency signal a favorable environment for advancing EOP remediation and long-term preparedness compliance.
EOC & Mass Notification System Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The county has active initiatives to modernize its Emergency Operations Center and mass notification infrastructure, with identified gaps in airport-specific emergency planning and cyber threat integration. Overdue HSEEP exercise documentation and EOP review cycles elevate compliance and operational risk for residents and first responders.
The opportunity
HSGP grant funding explicitly covers mass notification and IT modernization, creating a credible near-term funding path with strong alignment to current initiative priorities. Acting within this grant cycle reduces compliance exposure, displaces aging notification infrastructure, and advances coordinated emergency response outcomes.
Fleet Telematics & Winter Operations Safety
Fleet Management · Public Works Safety
High Priority
About this project
The authority currently operates heavy equipment such as snowplows with no telematics or camera systems in place, creating unresolved safety risks during winter operations and no clear mechanism for incident attribution. This greenfield gap leaves staff, equipment, and the public exposed without data to support accountability or operational improvement.
The opportunity
Seasonal winter operations create a near-term safety trigger, and cooperative purchasing contracts available to Michigan government entities can significantly streamline and accelerate procurement. Acting within the current fiscal cycle positions the authority to reduce liability, improve operational visibility, and demonstrate responsible stewardship of public assets.

Web Accessibility · Digital Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The county has an active obligation to meet WCAG 2.1 AA web accessibility standards, with a fragmented digital ecosystem that creates compliance exposure and unequal public access. Consolidating web properties under a unified, accessible framework reduces legal risk and improves service delivery for all residents.
The opportunity
Upcoming leadership transitions and scheduled committee meetings create a near-term decision window, while approved budget activity and state airport program funding signal available resources. Acting within the current fiscal cycle advances compliance, reduces accessibility liability, and positions the county for equitable digital service delivery.
