Police Fleet Modernization and Telematics Deployment
Fleet Management · Public Safety Technology
High Priority
About this project
The department faces a mandated police cruiser replacement deadline of December 2026, creating a defined and time-sensitive procurement window. Gaps in telematics, in-vehicle video, and driver-safety monitoring remain unaddressed despite prior camera deployments, elevating officer safety and operational oversight risks.
The opportunity
The December 2026 replacement mandate and a proposed police services millage on the August 2026 ballot create aligned procurement and funding momentum. Federal grant pathways, including COPS TEP and JAG, offer eligible funding to offset costs and advance fleet readiness within the current planning cycle.

Cybersecurity · Public Safety IT
High Priority
About this project
A December 2025 cyber-attack exposed critical gaps in endpoint protection and enterprise credential management, creating immediate operational and reputational risk. Without structured cybersecurity tooling, the department remains vulnerable to repeat incidents affecting public safety operations and sensitive data.
The opportunity
The recent incident creates a defined, time-sensitive window to act before the next fiscal cycle closes. Federal grant programs support public safety cybersecurity investments, and a proposed police millage on the August 2026 ballot may expand available funding for technology infrastructure.
Emergency Operations Plan Development and NIMS Compliance
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The village lacks a publicly available Emergency Operations Plan, with no evidence of a recent EOP review and unclear local emergency management leadership. This gap creates direct NIMS compliance exposure and elevates operational risk for residents and first responders during critical incidents.
The opportunity
FEMA preparedness grants offer a direct funding path for EOP development, and existing mass-notification infrastructure presents a consolidation opportunity to reduce costs. Acting within the current grant cycle addresses compliance mandates and strengthens community-level emergency readiness before the next fiscal year.

Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The department currently operates fragmented mass-notification platforms, creating redundancy and communication gaps during emergencies. Without consolidation, inconsistent alerting increases operational risk and undermines NIMS-aligned emergency preparedness requirements.
The opportunity
FEMA preparedness grants offer a viable funding path for this initiative, aligning with the current grant window and upcoming fiscal planning cycles. Consolidating platforms now reduces overhead, strengthens community alerting, and supports broader emergency preparedness compliance goals.

Discuss this project →Web Accessibility & Digital Portal Compliance
Digital Accessibility · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The department's public-facing digital portal may carry web accessibility gaps common to government CMS platforms, creating compliance risk under federal accessibility standards. Unresolved gaps can limit equitable public access to services and expose the entity to legal liability.
The opportunity
Addressing accessibility gaps now reduces legal exposure and strengthens public trust ahead of increasing enforcement activity around digital equity mandates. Remediation efforts may align with cooperative purchasing vehicles, supporting cost-effective procurement within the current fiscal cycle.
