Emergency Operations Plan Development & Compliance
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The department currently lacks a formal Emergency Operations Plan, relies on county emergency management, and has no documented exercises or reviews on record. This gap creates significant regulatory and operational exposure under NIMS and Michigan EOP mandates, leaving the department misaligned with state and federal preparedness standards.
The opportunity
FEMA preparedness grants, including HSGP and BRIC, provide a direct funding path for eligible equipment and planning initiatives with limited local match required. Acting within the current grant cycle addresses urgent compliance risk, strengthens incident readiness, and aligns with budget-approved strategic planning priorities.

Fleet Safety · Public Safety Technology
High Priority
About this project
A recent fire engine accident has exposed critical gaps in fleet safety oversight, with no telematics or in-vehicle recording systems currently in place. The absence of driver behavior monitoring and incident documentation tools elevates liability, operational risk, and public safety exposure for the department.
The opportunity
Approved Motor Pool funding provides an immediate financial pathway, and the lack of an incumbent solution allows for a clean, competitive procurement. Acting now addresses urgent post-incident safety mandates and aligns with cooperative purchasing options that can accelerate acquisition within the current budget cycle.

Discuss this project →Web Accessibility & Document Compliance Remediation
Digital Accessibility · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The municipality maintains WCAG 2.1 compliance obligations, and while a front-end accessibility widget and updated statement are in place, document-level accessibility gaps remain unresolved. These gaps carry legal exposure and risk excluding residents with disabilities from equitable access to public information.
The opportunity
An approved budget line for web services signals available funding within the current fiscal cycle to close remaining compliance gaps. Addressing document-level accessibility now reduces legal risk, advances digital equity, and aligns with ongoing investment in the municipality's public-facing digital presence.
Dispatch & Communications Infrastructure Modernization
Public Safety · Emergency Communications
High Priority
About this project
An active contract review for dispatch and communications services signals a critical procurement window for upgrading public safety communications infrastructure. Without modernized systems, departments face operational continuity risks and gaps in coordinated emergency response capabilities.
The opportunity
The current contract renewal cycle creates a time-sensitive window to advance communications modernization aligned with public safety budget commitments, including dedicated Police and Fire Special Assessment District funding. Acting now supports uninterrupted service delivery and positions the city for eligible state and federal preparedness funding.
