Emergency Operations Plan Development & NIMS Compliance
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The Town has an unverified Emergency Operations Plan and unclear mass-notification governance, with recent severe weather events exposing untested preparedness protocols. NIMS adoption is federally required for grant eligibility, compounding the operational risk with a direct compliance mandate.
The opportunity
NIMS compliance ties directly to federal funding access, making this a high-priority item for the upcoming budget and grant planning cycle. Closing preparedness gaps now reduces community risk, satisfies compliance requirements, and positions the Town to competitively pursue available emergency management funding.

Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
Mass-notification governance is unresolved — system access and ownership for the county's existing alerting platform remain unconfirmed at the local level, leaving residents without a verified warning capability. Recent severe weather events and an unverified Emergency Operations Plan status elevate both operational and compliance risk, particularly given NIMS adoption requirements tied to federal grant eligibility.
The opportunity
Unclear notification ownership creates an immediate gap in public safety readiness that aligns with the county emergency management program's active preparedness initiative. Resolving governance now supports NIMS compliance, strengthens federal grant eligibility, and ensures reliable alerting before the next severe weather event.
Public Works Fleet Telematics & Vehicle Safety Modernization
Fleet Management · Public Works Safety
High Priority
About this project
The Town's public works fleet currently operates without telematics infrastructure, leaving automobile liability exposure unmitigated and driver behavior unmonitored. No incumbent solution is in place, representing a foundational gap in fleet visibility, risk management, and operational accountability.
The opportunity
With no competing solution in place and infrastructure investment already active through recent capital awards, the upcoming budget cycle is a natural entry point to address fleet safety. Telematics adoption can reduce liability exposure, improve asset utilization, and may align with available transportation or public works funding pathways.

Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The Town lacks a documented cybersecurity posture, and IT and software spend data is unavailable, leaving budget capacity and system exposure unquantified. An audit finding tied to financial accountability signals broader governance gaps that likely extend to IT systems and public data.
The opportunity
With no existing technology contracts or incumbent solutions in place, the Town can establish a foundational cybersecurity framework without displacement costs. Aligning this effort with the current budget cycle and infrastructure investment activity creates a practical entry point for sustainable, compliance-supportive IT governance.
