Emergency Operations Plan Development & NIMS Compliance
Emergency Management · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The city lacks a publicly available Emergency Operations Plan, documented exercises, and after-action reviews, leaving critical preparedness gaps unaddressed. Unmet NIMS reporting requirements and an active EOP review cycle create significant regulatory and operational risk for staff and residents.
The opportunity
A new City Manager appointed in early 2025 opens a strategic window for emergency management prioritization, while HSGP and BRIC grant programs offer direct funding paths with limited local match. Acting within the current fiscal cycle aligns procurement with budget planning activity and reduces near-term compliance exposure.
Mass Notification System Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The city relies on a legacy public alert platform with no formally documented mass-notification solution, creating a critical gap in emergency communications. This deficiency, combined with overdue EOP review and NIMS compliance requirements, elevates operational and public safety risk.
The opportunity
Participation in the Wayne County Hazard Mitigation Plan identifies communications and public notification as near-term priorities, and HSGP funding directly covers emergency communications upgrades. A recent leadership transition opens a timely decision window to modernize, reduce compliance exposure, and strengthen community-wide emergency response.
Fleet Telematics & Dashcam Infrastructure Deployment
Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The department currently lacks documented telematics and dashcam infrastructure, limiting its ability to capture evidence for incident response and legal defense. Active municipal litigation activity compounds this gap, creating measurable liability exposure for the jurisdiction.
The opportunity
Cooperative purchasing agreements offer a streamlined, cost-effective procurement path that reduces administrative burden and accelerates deployment timelines. Addressing this gap now mitigates ongoing litigation risk and aligns with public safety accountability goals ahead of the upcoming budget cycle.

Digital Accessibility · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
Public-facing digital portals have documented gaps in meeting WCAG/ADA accessibility standards, creating legal exposure and barriers to equitable resident access. With a new City Manager recently appointed, existing compliance deficiencies in digital infrastructure are under heightened scrutiny.
The opportunity
Leadership transitions commonly open procurement windows for digital infrastructure review, and this project aligns with active FY budget planning cycles. Addressing accessibility compliance now reduces legal risk, broadens resident access, and positions the city for cost-effective remediation before mandates escalate.
Hazard Mitigation Planning & Public Notification Infrastructure
Emergency Management · Grant Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The city operates within the Wayne County Hazard Mitigation Plan, which identifies communications improvements and public notification as active priorities, yet critical gaps remain in EOP documentation, mass notification, and exercise records. These deficiencies elevate compliance risk under NIMS requirements and leave residents underserved during emergencies.
The opportunity
BRIC grant funding is directly applicable to hazard-mitigation infrastructure and related technology, offering a near-term, structured budget pathway with reduced local match burden. Acting within the current grant window and fiscal planning cycle accelerates compliance, strengthens community resilience, and aligns with the county's existing mitigation framework.
