Emergency Operations Plan & Preparedness Gap Remediation
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The township lacks a publicly available Emergency Operations Plan, faces local resource shortfalls, and depends heavily on county-level capabilities. NIMS compliance requirements tied to federal grant eligibility and LEPC participation expose the township to significant operational and regulatory risk.
The opportunity
Homeland Security and hazard mitigation grant deadlines in July 2026 create a near-term funding window aligned to this initiative. Acting within the current cycle strengthens compliance posture, closes preparedness gaps, and leverages existing county emergency management infrastructure as a foundation.
Web Accessibility & Digital Content Compliance
ADA Compliance · Digital Accessibility
High Priority
About this project
A federal ADA Title II mandate requires public-facing web content and documents to meet WCAG accessibility standards by April 2027, creating legal and compliance risk for the township. Because the township's web presence is hosted through the county, remediation will likely require coordinated action across shared infrastructure.
The opportunity
The April 2027 deadline creates a defined window to act before legal exposure increases. Addressing accessibility now through the county's shared hosting environment allows multiple township entities to remediate together, maximizing efficiency and responsible use of public funds ahead of the fiscal planning cycle.

Discuss this project →Fleet Safety and Vehicle Management Modernization
Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
Active fleet deficiencies — including deferred maintenance on service vehicles and an animal shelter vehicle requiring replacement — present operational and liability risks to public safety delivery. A recent in-car camera grant for Sheriff's patrol vehicles confirms institutional recognition of safety technology needs and readiness to act.
The opportunity
State-level public safety appropriations and existing grant awards have increased available budget capacity, creating a timely opening to address fleet safety gaps within the current fiscal cycle. Proactive investment reduces operational risk, supports staff and public safety, and aligns with demonstrated funding receptivity.

Discuss this project →Mass Notification System Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The township currently depends on county-level mass notification infrastructure, leaving a critical gap in locally controlled alerting and warning capabilities. This reliance limits the township's ability to meet NIMS compliance requirements and independently respond to emergencies affecting residents.
The opportunity
HSGP funding explicitly covers alert-and-warning systems with a July 2026 deadline, creating a near-term window to address this gap with federal support. Acting now enables coordinated expansion alongside the county's active rollout, reducing local match burden and strengthening community-wide emergency response.
