Emergency Management Preparedness & Hazard Mitigation Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
Barry County Emergency Management faces preparedness gaps including declining EMPG grant funding, limited oversight capacity, and active flood risk requiring coordinated response. NIMS compliance and a mandated four-year EOP review cycle create firm operational and regulatory obligations the county must meet.
The opportunity
Multiple aligned federal grant programs—including HSGP, BRIC, and EMPG—support EM technology investment, and budget planning cycles in late winter and early spring create a near-term procurement window. Advancing this project now directly supports implementation of the county's Hazard Mitigation Plan and strengthens community resilience ahead of future funding constraints.
Web Accessibility & ADA Compliance Remediation
Web Accessibility · ADA Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The township has identified gaps in website accessibility against WCAG 2.1 A/AA and Section 508 standards, with a firm April 2027 compliance deadline for fire department websites. Unresolved gaps create legal exposure and limit equitable public access to critical government services.
The opportunity
The April 2027 deadline makes this a time-bound procurement priority, and budget planning cycles in late winter and early spring create a near-term purchasing window. Acting now allows the township to remediate gaps methodically, reduce legal risk, and ensure digital services are accessible to all residents.

Fleet Safety Management · Public Safety Technology
High Priority
About this project
The Sheriff's office and Fire Department have an acknowledged need for comprehensive fleet safety technology, with in-car camera installations already underway for the Sheriff. No critical incidents have been reported, but the absence of a unified fleet safety solution creates incremental operational and liability risk across public safety departments.
The opportunity
Cooperative purchasing vehicles such as Sourcewell and MiDEAL can reduce procurement timelines and administrative burden, making this an efficient use of public funds. Advancing fleet safety technology now aligns with budget planning cycles in late winter and early spring, supporting proactive risk management before incidents occur.
