Emergency Preparedness Gap Remediation and Resilience Planning
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
Spalding Township lacks a documented Emergency Operations Plan, mass notification capability, and HSEEP-style exercises, leaving residents and staff exposed during crises. A declared State of Emergency from April 2026 flooding has elevated political urgency, while unmet NIMS/ICS and EOP review mandates create compounding compliance risk.
The opportunity
The FEMA BRIC grant deadline of July 23, 2026 offers a near-term funding pathway for resilience technology with limited local match required. Acting within the current fiscal cycle addresses critical preparedness gaps, satisfies compliance mandates, and strengthens the township's capacity to protect residents during future emergencies.

Web Accessibility · Digital Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The township has no plan or technology in place to meet WCAG 2.1 Level AA mandates ahead of the 2028 deadline, creating growing legal and compliance exposure. Active discussions around publishing ordinances online signal leadership awareness of digital content gaps that must be addressed proactively.
The opportunity
The recently adopted 2026–2027 budget and the onboarding of a new Township Clerk create an ideal window to initiate this project with fresh priorities and available funding. Acting now allows the township to align procurement with cooperative purchasing agreements, reduce compliance risk, and deliver equitable digital access to all residents well ahead of the federal deadline.

Fleet Management · Public Works Safety
High Priority
About this project
The township operates a public utility fleet with general safety exposures, and an active road infrastructure project signals growing fleet management needs. Without telematics visibility, the township faces operational risk, limited accountability, and reduced ability to document safety compliance.
The opportunity
Active infrastructure funding and an established cooperative purchasing membership allow the township to move quickly without a full competitive bid cycle. Addressing fleet visibility now aligns with the current budget cycle and supports responsible stewardship of public infrastructure investments.

IT Modernization · Cybersecurity
High Priority
About this project
Core township functions are currently managed through county-level IT, creating integration dependencies and visibility gaps around endpoint security and credential management. With annual IT spend data unavailable, budget exposure and risk posture remain difficult to assess heading into the new fiscal cycle.
The opportunity
The recently adopted 2026–2027 budget and a newly appointed Township Clerk signal openness to technology investment and shifting procurement priorities. Existing county relationships provide a natural entry point, and secondary federal funding pathways may offset local costs for qualifying cybersecurity initiatives.
