Emergency Operations Plan & Mass Notification Consolidation
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
Norton Shores lacks a publicly available Emergency Operations Plan, has unclear local EM leadership, and operates split mass notification platforms — creating interoperability risk and compliance exposure under Michigan's mandated EOP review cycle. These gaps elevate operational and regulatory risk for the department and the residents it serves.
The opportunity
Michigan's EOP review cycle creates a near-term compliance deadline, while the Fire Department's equipment fund — bolstered by a recent ambulance sale — signals available resources for emergency management improvements. Grants such as HSGP and BRIC offer additional funding paths to consolidate notification systems and close preparedness gaps this fiscal cycle.
Web Accessibility & Government Mobile App Modernization
Web Accessibility · Digital Government Services
High Priority
About this project
The city faces active WCAG/ADA web accessibility compliance expectations while simultaneously pursuing a government mobile app through a formal RFP process with a dedicated FY2027 budget allocation. Failure to address accessibility gaps creates legal and compliance exposure, while delayed app procurement risks losing momentum on approved public-facing digital service improvements.
The opportunity
With an adopted FY2027 budget and an active RFP already in motion, the procurement window for digital accessibility and mobile app solutions is open now. Acting within this cycle ensures alignment with approved funding, reduces compliance risk, and delivers improved public access to city services.

Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The city is actively replacing its police fleet with new vehicles, yet no existing telematics or dash camera infrastructure has been identified. This gap creates unaddressed liability exposure and limits the city's ability to monitor driver safety, vehicle utilization, and incident accountability.
The opportunity
Confirmed FY2027 budget funding for police vehicle replacements creates an immediate, natural window to integrate telematics during procurement rather than retrofitting later at greater cost. Grant programs aligned with public safety technology—including JAG—may offset implementation costs and support long-term fleet oversight goals.
Public Safety Technology & Cybersecurity Funding
Public Safety · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The adopted FY2027 budget includes a Public Safety Millage and Capital Improvement Fund, signaling committed resources for technology and cybersecurity initiatives. Identified gaps in emergency preparedness, notification system interoperability, and fleet visibility elevate operational and liability risk for the municipality.
The opportunity
Confirmed budget appropriations and a high grant opportunity score—with applicable federal grant programs aligned to public safety technology—create a strong, time-sensitive funding environment. Acting within the current fiscal cycle allows the municipality to close preparedness gaps, reduce compliance exposure, and advance mission-critical infrastructure.
