Emergency Operations Plan Development & Preparedness
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The current EOP's review status is unknown, with no public evidence of HSEEP-compliant exercises or after-action reports. A recent Fire Chief transition triggers mandatory EOP updates under Michigan's review cycle and NIMS requirements, compounded by recent declared emergencies including flooding and a boil-water advisory.
The opportunity
The FY26 Homeland Security Grant Program provides a direct, time-sensitive funding path ahead of a 2026 deadline, alongside active county-level hazard mitigation initiatives. Addressing preparedness gaps now reduces compliance and operational risk while aligning with current grant windows and fiscal planning cycles.

Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The Fire Department operates aging apparatus without dash-cam or telematics capabilities amid rising call volume, creating measurable liability exposure and operational safety gaps. A budget-approved Vehicle Capital Improvement initiative signals active planning, but without fleet visibility tools, risk to personnel and public accountability remains unaddressed.
The opportunity
ARPA funds totaling $7.5 million must be obligated by end of 2026, creating a firm procurement window for capital fleet investments. Acting now aligns with approved budget initiatives, supports firefighter safety, and reduces liability before call volume pressures compound operational risk further.
FY26 HSGP
Discuss this project →Web Accessibility & Digital Document Compliance
Web Accessibility · ADA Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The department faces binding compliance obligations under PA 660, ADA, and WCAG standards, with a stated remediation deadline. A legacy WordPress CMS environment presents document and portal accessibility gaps that create legal exposure and restrict equitable public access to government services.
The opportunity
A firm compliance deadline makes inaction a direct legal and reputational risk, with no flexibility for deferral to a future fiscal cycle. The defined WordPress scope enables a structured, cost-bounded remediation effort eligible for alignment with existing IT modernization or accessibility-focused funding streams.
IT Infrastructure & Cybersecurity Modernization Initiative
IT Modernization · Cybersecurity Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The organization has active IT infrastructure projects underway, including network equipment upgrades, alongside budgeted funding designated for cybersecurity modernization. Gaps in endpoint protection and broader infrastructure readiness present ongoing operational and compliance risk to public service delivery.
The opportunity
A confirmed $7.5 million in ARPA funds must be expended by end of 2026, creating a firm procurement window for infrastructure and security improvements. Acting within the current fiscal cycle ensures alignment with budget authority, reduces compliance exposure, and strengthens long-term operational resilience.
Local Mass Notification & Emergency Alerting Readiness
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The township lacks confirmed direct access to a reliable mass notification system, creating a critical gap in public alerting capability. Recent emergencies—including a boil-water advisory and flooding—underscore the operational and compliance risk of delayed action, particularly given outstanding EOP review obligations under Michigan mandate and NIMS requirements.
The opportunity
FY26 Homeland Security Grant Program (HSGP) funding and an end-of-2026 ARPA spending deadline provide near-term budget vehicles to evaluate and procure a local alerting solution. Acting within the current grant window strengthens compliance posture, closes a documented preparedness gap, and improves emergency outcomes for residents.
