Emergency Preparedness Gap Remediation & Compliance
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
Fremont faces critical emergency preparedness gaps, including an overdue EOP review, absence of HSEEP-style exercises, and cross-jurisdiction notification coverage deficiencies. Unmet NIMS implementation and Michigan EOP compliance mandates elevate regulatory and operational risk to residents and first responders.
The opportunity
Active alignment with the Newaygo County Hazard Management Plan update signals near-term initiative momentum, and federal grant funding is available to offset costs. Addressing these gaps now reduces compliance exposure, strengthens regional coordination, and supports responsible stewardship of public safety resources.
Fleet Telematics & In-Vehicle Safety Modernization
Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The city's police fleet currently lacks in-vehicle dash cameras and telematics, creating a documented gap in safety visibility, incident documentation, and operational accountability. This absence elevates risk for officers, residents, and the department's ability to respond to and review critical incidents.
The opportunity
The FY 2026 COPS Technology and Equipment Program offers a direct funding path for fleet safety and telematics investments, making near-term action fiscally strategic. An active police leadership transition and recent increases in public safety budget allocations further support timely procurement to advance officer safety and operational modernization.

Digital Accessibility · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The city's public-facing website targets WCAG 2.0 but falls short of the current WCAG 2.1 AA standard, creating a legal accessibility gap and limiting equitable digital access for residents with disabilities. A recent internal audit and vendor transition have further surfaced short-term procurement needs in the digital services space.
The opportunity
The gap between WCAG 2.0 and 2.1 AA creates near-term legal exposure that aligns with an active digital services strategic initiative, making this an ideal moment to act within the current fiscal planning cycle. Addressing compliance now reduces litigation risk, improves resident service equity, and may align with cooperative purchasing vehicles that streamline procurement.

IT Modernization · Cybersecurity
High Priority
About this project
The city's IT environment reflects fragmented, manually managed tooling across endpoint management and identity security, creating operational inefficiencies and elevated cyber risk. Discrete, siloed technology purchases signal a lack of unified oversight, increasing vulnerability exposure for municipal systems and staff.
The opportunity
An active leadership transition within public safety and a favorable public safety budget environment create a timely catalyst for consolidating cybersecurity investments. Addressing fragmentation now reduces operational risk, supports long-term cost efficiency, and aligns with the upcoming fiscal planning cycle.

Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The city's current alert system has a documented cross-jurisdiction notification and coverage gap, limiting reliable public reach during emergencies. This deficiency undermines coordinated incident response and conflicts with NIMS implementation and Michigan EOP compliance requirements.
The opportunity
Recent budget amendments and increased public safety funding create a favorable environment for addressing this gap in the current fiscal cycle. Eligible grant programs support mass notification upgrades, and cooperative purchasing pathways can accelerate procurement while reducing local match burden.
