Emergency Operations Plan Development & NIMS Compliance
Emergency Management · Homeland Security
High Priority
About this project
The township lacks a publicly available Emergency Operations Plan and faces infrastructure vulnerabilities exposed by a county-declared flooding emergency in April 2026. NIMS compliance mandates and required EOP review cadences remain unmet, risking loss of preparedness funding and leaving residents operationally unprotected.
The opportunity
The active county-level state of emergency and the FY26 Homeland Security Grant Program create immediate urgency and a direct funding pathway for preparedness investments. Acting within the current grant cycle strengthens compliance standing, reduces operational exposure, and aligns with state-level emergency management budget priorities.

Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The township operates multiple overlapping mass-notification platforms with fragmented administration and unknown coverage gaps, undermining reliable emergency communication. A county-declared state of emergency following April 2026 flooding exposed these shortcomings, and unresolved NIMS compliance and an absent EOP elevate both operational and regulatory risk.
The opportunity
The April 2026 flooding emergency underscores the immediate need for a unified, dependable notification capability. The FY26 Homeland Security Grant Program explicitly permits equipment purchases for preparedness, offering a direct funding path. Consolidating fragmented systems now reduces cost, closes compliance gaps, and strengthens community resilience ahead of the next fiscal cycle.

Digital Accessibility · ADA Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The township's website currently meets only partial WCAG 2.0 AA conformance and falls short of the WCAG 2.1 standard, creating ADA legal exposure and inequitable access to public digital services for residents. Unresolved gaps elevate compliance risk and may limit access for individuals with disabilities.
The opportunity
The township's April 2026 accessibility statement signals active awareness of the gap, indicating near-term remediation intent aligned with the current fiscal cycle. State IT modernization funding and cooperative purchasing vehicles may reduce local cost burden while advancing equitable public access and reducing legal liability.

IT Modernization · Cybersecurity
High Priority
About this project
Menominee County has identified IT and cybersecurity modernization as a strategic priority, with coordinated infrastructure needs extending to the township level. Without modernized systems and cybersecurity controls, shared public infrastructure remains vulnerable to disruption, data exposure, and compliance gaps.
The opportunity
State-level budget increases for IT systems signal downstream grant opportunities aligned with the current fiscal cycle, making this an advantageous time to advance cybersecurity initiatives. Acting now supports operational resilience, protects public data, and positions the county and township to leverage available funding before the window closes.
