Emergency Operations Plan Renewal and Compliance
Emergency Management · Compliance & Risk Mitigation
High Priority
About this project
The department's Emergency Operations Plan has not been revised since April 2021 and is overdue for review, creating legal liability and risk of funding loss. No documented exercises or after-action reviews compound the compliance exposure, elevating operational risk for residents and staff.
The opportunity
Grant deadlines in July 2026 provide a defined funding window to address this high-urgency compliance gap, with partial funding already identified as a strategic priority. Acting within the current fiscal cycle reduces liability, restores compliance standing, and strengthens community resilience.
Consolidate Emergency Notification Systems Citywide
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The city operates a fragmented emergency notification environment — one system at the county level and a separate platform at the city level — creating coordination gaps and inconsistent resident outreach during incidents. This split architecture, combined with an overdue Emergency Operations Plan, elevates both operational and compliance risk.
The opportunity
A grant window in July 2026 supports emergency management initiatives and may offset consolidation costs with limited local match required. Unifying the notification environment now reduces liability exposure, strengthens incident response, and aligns with the city's top strategic priority of emergency management and resilience.
Fleet Telematics & Public Safety Vehicle Safety
Public Safety · Fleet Management
High Priority
About this project
The police department lacks documented dash-cam and telematics systems, creating measurable liability and compliance exposure around pursuit incidents. Without fleet safety tooling, the agency faces proactive risk gaps that increase operational and legal vulnerability.
The opportunity
JAG and COPS TEP grants due July 2026 explicitly allow fleet safety expenditures, and a Michigan law enforcement grant awarded April 2026 signals active funding availability. With fleet modernization planned for 2027–2029, near-term piloting aligns strategically with both grant windows and long-range planning cycles.
Web Accessibility & WCAG 2.1 Compliance Remediation
Web Accessibility · Digital Equity
High Priority
About this project
The department's public-facing website has identified gaps in WCAG 2.1 compliance, creating barriers for residents with disabilities and exposing the municipality to legal risk. The existing CMS platform requires accessibility remediation to meet federal standards and ensure equitable access to public services.
The opportunity
The May 2026 budget cycle and upcoming council consent agenda create a near-term decision window to address compliance gaps before legal exposure escalates. A phased remediation approach is viable within a constrained software budget and may align with available state or federal digital equity funding.
