Emergency Operations Plan & Preparedness Program Development
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The department lacks a publicly available Emergency Operations Plan, a documented mass notification platform, and formal exercise records — gaps that conflict with Michigan Publication 201 and NIMS compliance requirements tied to preparedness funding eligibility. Without these foundational elements, operational continuity and community safety remain at measurable risk.
The opportunity
Active federal grant programs — including HSGP, EMPG, and JAG — directly fund EOP development, mass notification, and exercise documentation, making this an ideal moment to close compliance gaps and secure available resources. Advancing this project within the current grant cycle strengthens preparedness outcomes and protects long-term funding eligibility.
Police Fleet Telematics & Dash Camera Deployment
Public Safety · Fleet Management
High Priority
About this project
The East Jordan Police Department currently lacks any documented dash camera or telematics infrastructure, creating measurable liability exposure and officer safety gaps. Public works fleet activity signals a broader municipal need for vehicle oversight and accountability.
The opportunity
Grant funding paths are available to offset deployment costs, and cooperative procurement membership is confirmed, reducing acquisition complexity. Acting within the current budget cycle positions the department to close a critical safety gap and strengthen public accountability.

Discuss this project →IT Managed Services & Cybersecurity Modernization
IT Modernization · Cybersecurity Compliance
High Priority
About this project
An active RFP for Information Technology Services with a bid date of July 2, 2026, signals an immediate procurement decision point. The absence of documented cybersecurity policies and identifiable endpoint security practices creates measurable compliance and operational risk for staff, systems, and public data.
The opportunity
Confirmed FY2025/2026 budget allocations for IT equipment and contractual services, combined with Sourcewell cooperative membership, reduce procurement barriers and accelerate timelines. Grant funding pathways and active RFP alignment make this an optimal window to close critical security gaps and strengthen operational continuity.
Web Accessibility & ADA/WCAG Compliance Remediation
Digital Accessibility · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
Public-facing web portals and document platforms have identified gaps in WCAG 2.1 and ADA accessibility compliance, creating legal exposure and barriers to equitable resident access. Unresolved gaps across third-party website and document management systems compound remediation complexity and ongoing risk.
The opportunity
Sustained federal and state compliance mandates create continuous urgency to close accessibility gaps, and an active IT Services procurement cycle presents a timely pathway to address remediation within current budget planning. Acting now reduces legal liability and ensures equitable, uninterrupted access to public services for all residents.

Discuss this project →Mass Notification System Implementation
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
East Jordan Police Department lacks an independent, agency-controlled mass notification platform, currently relying on county-level systems. This gap creates operational risk and conflicts with Michigan Publication 201 and NIMS compliance requirements for preparedness funding eligibility.
The opportunity
Federal grant programs, including HSGP and EMPG, provide direct funding paths for mass notification initiatives, and cooperative purchasing agreements can accelerate procurement. Acting within the current budget and grant cycle closes a critical compliance gap and strengthens independent emergency response capability.
