Emergency Operations Plan Development & Compliance
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The department lacks a publicly available Emergency Operations Plan and documented mass notification system, while facing significant flood risk and active compliance mandates around NIMS implementation and Michigan's EOP review cycle. These gaps create critical regulatory exposure and leave residents and staff without a coordinated emergency response framework.
The opportunity
Michigan's FY27 public safety funding environment and eligibility under federal law enforcement and emergency management grant programs provide near-term, accessible funding paths. Addressing preparedness gaps now reduces compliance risk, strengthens community resilience, and aligns with active budget and grant decision windows.

Discuss this project →Web Accessibility & Digital Portal Compliance
Web Accessibility · Digital Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The city has launched a council-approved initiative to bring its public-facing digital portal into compliance with ADA and WCAG accessibility standards ahead of an active legal deadline. Failure to act risks litigation exposure, inequitable resident access, and non-compliance with federal accessibility mandates.
The opportunity
With budget already approved and a legal compliance deadline driving urgency, this project is positioned for immediate execution within the current fiscal cycle. Acting now reduces liability risk, ensures equitable digital access for all residents, and aligns with cooperative procurement pathways that can accelerate delivery.
Fleet Safety & Telematics Modernization for Public Safety
Public Safety · Fleet Management
High Priority
About this project
The department lacks dashcam and telematics coverage across its fleet, creating evidence gaps and significant liability exposure tied to police pursuits. Without monitoring technology in place, the agency faces elevated operational and legal risk that threatens both officer accountability and public trust.
The opportunity
COPS TEP and Edward Byrne Memorial JAG grants explicitly fund law enforcement equipment and technologies, providing a clear funding pathway for this initiative. Leadership transitions in Public Safety create a timely opening to advance technology evaluations aligned with the current grant cycle and FY planning.

Procurement Efficiency · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The department holds confirmed membership in cooperative purchasing networks, reducing the administrative burden of competitive bidding across multiple active projects. Failure to leverage eligible cooperative vehicles can delay critical initiatives, increase procurement costs, and slow response to operational and compliance needs.
The opportunity
Aligning active projects to confirmed cooperative contract vehicles accelerates procurement timelines and supports responsible stewardship of public funds within the current fiscal cycle. This approach reduces friction across priority initiatives—including public safety and accessibility—while maximizing the impact of available grant and budget resources.
