Close Emergency Preparedness Gaps with Funded Solutions
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The county lacks a publicly available Emergency Operations Plan, documented mass notification system, and recorded exercises or After Action Reviews — gaps that create direct compliance risk under NIMS, EMPG, and Michigan EOP standards. Without these foundational elements, coordinated disaster response and resident safety are materially compromised.
The opportunity
Active HSGP and BRIC grant cycles, a FEMA debris removal award, and a proposed $30M state increase for fire and emergency services create a strong, near-term funding environment. Advancing this project now addresses critical compliance mandates, supports Natural Hazard Mitigation Plan updates, and strengthens community resilience before the next disaster event.
Web Accessibility & Digital Compliance Remediation
Web Accessibility · Digital Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The county has identified WCAG compliance gaps across public-facing digital properties, creating legal exposure and barriers to equitable access for residents. A hard federal compliance deadline of April 26, 2028 requires structured remediation of documents, portals, and digital services.
The opportunity
The 2028 WCAG deadline creates a defined planning and procurement window, making now the right time to assess gaps and sequence remediation. Acting early reduces legal risk, supports equitable public access, and allows costs to align with upcoming fiscal cycles and available state or federal funding.

Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
A small volunteer force operating in rural response conditions faces elevated safety risk tied to aging apparatus and limited fleet visibility. Identified gaps in dash camera coverage and telematics create operational and liability exposure for fire and rescue operations.
The opportunity
A millage renewal for fire and rescue operations signals near-term capital investment, and BRIC grant funding offers an eligible path for fleet safety infrastructure. Acting within the current budget cycle allows the county to align procurement with available funding and cooperative purchasing vehicles.
Building Department Physical Security Upgrades
Physical Security · Facilities & Infrastructure
High Priority
About this project
An active RFP for Building Department Security Improvements signals a live procurement cycle for physical or integrated security upgrades. Delays in addressing facility security gaps elevate risk to staff, public visitors, and county operations.
The opportunity
This in-flight initiative has defined procurement timelines, and cooperative purchasing vehicles may streamline award for qualifying solutions. Acting within the current buying cycle supports operational continuity and aligns with responsible stewardship of public facilities.
