Emergency Operations Plan & Notification System Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The department lacks a publicly available Emergency Operations Plan, relies on a fragmented mass notification system split across county and township platforms, and has no documented recent exercises. These gaps create measurable compliance risk under Michigan's EOP review cycle mandates and leave residents underserved during emergencies.
The opportunity
A newly appointed Emergency Management Coordinator signals leadership readiness for change, while multiple grant windows closing in mid-2026 offer viable funding pathways with limited local match. Acting within the current fiscal cycle addresses compliance mandates, consolidates notification coverage, and strengthens community resilience.
Unified Mass Notification System Consolidation
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The county and township operate separate, incompatible mass notification platforms, creating coverage gaps and inconsistent public alerting during critical incidents. An opt-in model further limits reach, and the absence of a unified system elevates risk against Michigan's EOP review compliance cycle.
The opportunity
A newly appointed Emergency Management Coordinator creates a timely opening to consolidate platforms and close preparedness gaps. JAG and HSGP grant windows with mid-2026 deadlines, combined with cooperative purchasing options, offer a cost-effective, compliance-aligned path to unified, jurisdiction-wide public alerting.
Web Accessibility & Digital Portal Compliance
Web Accessibility · Digital Equity
High Priority
About this project
The department faces a WCAG 2.1 AA compliance deadline of April 24, 2026, with current web services managed through external design vendors. Non-compliance creates legal exposure and restricts equitable public access to essential digital services.
The opportunity
The April 2026 hard deadline defines a clear and urgent procurement window aligned with current fiscal planning cycles. Acting now reduces legal risk, strengthens public trust, and positions the entity to meet federal accessibility mandates before enforcement exposure increases.

Public Safety · Fleet Management
High Priority
About this project
The police fleet currently lacks dash cameras and telematics, creating evidence gaps during incidents and unaddressed safety risks for officers and the public. An active Capital Improvement Program and the formation of a Countywide Transit Authority are expanding fleet management scope and urgency.
The opportunity
JAG and HSGP grant deadlines in mid-2026 align directly with this fleet safety need, offering a funding pathway with limited local match requirements. Acting within the current CIP planning cycle ensures telematics and camera infrastructure can be scoped, procured, and deployed without delay.
