Fleet Telematics & Police Vehicle Safety Modernization
Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
A recent stolen police cruiser incident has exposed critical gaps in vehicle tracking and asset security across the department's fleet. Active police vehicle replacement and in-vehicle equipment modernization are underway, with dedicated funding approved through budget amendments and a special public safety tax.
The opportunity
Upcoming grant deadlines for law enforcement equipment and a near-term capital improvements planning window create a time-sensitive procurement opportunity. Cooperative purchasing options can accelerate acquisition timelines, and approved dedicated funding reduces reliance on general budget resources.
Emergency Operations Plan Development and NIMS Compliance
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The village lacks a published Emergency Operations Plan and has documented preparedness gaps identified through tabletop exercise findings requiring remediation. NIMS compliance mandates, the absence of a village-specific mass notification system, and recent severe weather incidents without after-action reports elevate both legal exposure and operational risk for residents and staff.
The opportunity
Compliance mandates and documented exercise findings create a clear, near-term imperative to act before the next severe weather season or audit cycle. Emergency preparedness initiatives are broadly eligible for state and federal funding, and addressing gaps now reduces liability while strengthening community resilience and continuity of operations.
Mass Notification System Implementation
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
No village-managed mass notification system is in place, leaving residents and staff without reliable emergency communication. Recent severe weather incidents and documented preparedness gaps — including no published EOP and pending NIMS remediation — elevate operational and compliance risk.
The opportunity
Compliance mandates, tabletop exercise findings, and regional coordination priorities create a clear, time-sensitive case for investment. This project is eligible for public safety grant funding and aligns with near-term capital planning, enabling the village to close critical gaps while stewarding public resources responsibly.
Securing Endpoints and Identities During M365 Migration
Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
A planned migration to Microsoft 365 introduces new identity and endpoint security requirements that must be addressed to protect village systems and staff credentials. Without layered security controls in place during this transition, the risk of unauthorized access and data exposure increases significantly.
The opportunity
Active infrastructure change creates a natural window to implement endpoint and credential security alongside the M365 rollout, avoiding costly retrofits later. This aligns with the current planning cycle and may be eligible for state or federal cybersecurity funding available to local government entities.
Web Accessibility Compliance for Public Digital Services
Digital Accessibility · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
Evolving federal and state web accessibility mandates require public entities to ensure digital services are equitable and usable for all residents. Without a proactive compliance review, the village risks future remediation costs, legal exposure, and barriers to public service access.
The opportunity
An existing website provider relationship offers a natural entry point for an accessibility audit and upgrade ahead of tightening regulatory timelines. Early action reduces long-term remediation costs and positions the village for compliance before mandates become enforceable priorities.
