Cybersecurity & Password Management Compliance
Cybersecurity · Public Safety Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The township faces active CJIS/LEIN mandates requiring enforced password management and multi-factor authentication for law enforcement systems. An unvetted password management tool is currently in use, creating compliance exposure and operational risk for public safety personnel and sensitive data.
The opportunity
The township's 2026–2027 budget cycle, with meetings in February and fiscal year closing March 30, creates an immediate decision window. State public safety funding and JAG/COPS TEP grants are available and explicitly aligned with law enforcement cybersecurity investments, reducing local cost burden.
Web Accessibility & ADA Compliance Remediation
ADA Compliance · Digital Accessibility
High Priority
About this project
Somerset Township has identified ADA Title II compliance gaps across its public-facing web presence, with no remediation plan in place ahead of the WCAG 2.1 AA deadline of April 2027. Without action, the township faces legal exposure and risks excluding residents from equitable access to public services.
The opportunity
The April 2027 regulatory deadline creates a defined and urgent planning window, and the township's fiscal year ending March 30 means funding decisions for remediation must be initiated promptly. Acting within the current budget cycle aligns appropriations with compliance timelines and reduces both legal liability and public access risk.

Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The police department lacks documented dash cameras and in-vehicle telematics, creating measurable liability exposure for the township. A newly budgeted police vehicle represents a direct and timely entry point to close this gap before the fiscal year closes March 30.
The opportunity
The active FY2026–2027 budget cycle and eligibility under JAG and COPS Technology and Equipment Program grants create a strong funding pathway with limited local match required. Acting now aligns telematics adoption with the vehicle purchase, reducing liability and supporting the department's public safety mission.
Strengthen Endpoint Visibility and IT Operational Control
IT Modernization · Cybersecurity
High Priority
About this project
Current IT operations rely on outsourced managed services, creating potential gaps in centralized endpoint visibility, control, and compliance posture. Without unified oversight, the township faces elevated risk of undetected vulnerabilities and difficulty meeting CJIS/LEIN and related public-sector security mandates.
The opportunity
The active 2026–2027 budget cycle and available state and federal public safety funding—including JAG-aligned grants—create a near-term window to address endpoint management gaps. Acting now supports compliance, reduces operational risk, and aligns investments with the township's fiscal planning calendar ahead of the March 30 fiscal year close.
Township Emergency Operations Plan Development
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The township lacks a publicly available Emergency Operations Plan and has no documented exercises on record, creating a gap in local preparedness ownership. Reliance on county-level outsourcing leaves the township without direct accountability for documentation, response coordination, or compliance readiness.
The opportunity
State and federal funding programs support local preparedness planning, and the township's active budget cycle presents a timely window to address foundational EOP gaps. Establishing township-level documentation now reduces operational risk and positions the entity for greater preparedness autonomy and grant eligibility.
