Emergency Operations Plan & Preparedness Development
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The department lacks a documented Emergency Operations Plan, has no mass notification system, and shows no evidence of regular exercises or compliance reviews — creating significant NIMS readiness gaps. Active county-level EOC development and a 911 Plan Review further elevate the urgency to address local preparedness deficiencies before compliance status deteriorates.
The opportunity
HSGP and EMPG grant funding is explicitly available to support preparedness planning and emergency equipment for this entity, reducing reliance on local capital. Aligning action with the current EOC development cycle and 911 Plan Review creates a near-term window to close critical gaps and strengthen community resilience.
Fleet Telematics & Safety Monitoring Deployment
Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
A recent brush truck acquisition for the fire department highlights the absence of telematics or dashcam systems across the fleet, creating unmonitored operational and liability risk. With no existing fleet safety infrastructure, the department lacks visibility into vehicle use, driver behavior, and incident documentation needed to protect personnel and public assets.
The opportunity
The FY 2026–27 budget is adopted with $437,372 in capital funding designated for vehicle-related expenditures, creating a near-term, funded entry point. Acting within this fiscal cycle enables the department to pair new equipment with safety monitoring from the outset, reducing long-term risk and supporting responsible stewardship of public funds. Cooperative purchasing agreements offer a streamlined, compliant procurement path.

Web Accessibility · ADA Compliance
High Priority
About this project
A federal ADA Title II mandate requires WCAG-conformant web accessibility by April 2027, and an internal directive to update the GIS website signals active but incomplete remediation efforts. Non-compliance creates legal exposure and limits equitable public access to government digital services.
The opportunity
The April 2027 deadline establishes a defined planning and implementation window aligned with the current fiscal cycle, and cooperative procurement vehicles are available to streamline acquisition. Acting now reduces legal risk, advances digital equity, and positions the entity to meet the mandate without emergency remediation costs.

Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
Keweenaw County is actively planning its Emergency and Essential Operations Center (KCEOC) alongside a 911 Plan Review, with identified gaps in EOP documentation, mass notification, and exercise compliance. These deficiencies elevate operational and NIMS compliance risk for the county's emergency ecosystem, including the Lac La Belle Fire Department.
The opportunity
Active HSGP and EMPG grant pursuits place this project in a funded planning phase, creating a near-term window to shape technology selection and procurement aligned with FY 2026–27 capital budgets. Advancing now strengthens incident coordination, closes preparedness gaps, and maximizes eligible federal funding before procurement decisions are finalized.
