Township Emergency Operations Plan Development
Emergency Management · Grant Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The township lacks a documented, publicly available EOP, faces county emergency management staffing instability, and has cross-jurisdictional notification inconsistencies. NIMS implementation requirements and EOP mandates tied to federal funding eligibility—reinforced by Michigan State Police EMHSD guidance—create urgent compliance obligations.
The opportunity
The FY 2026 Homeland Security Grant Program provides a defined funding window to address these gaps with limited local match required. Acting now aligns with active county hazard mitigation planning efforts and protects the township's eligibility for ongoing federal emergency management support.

Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The township faces cross-jurisdictional notification inconsistencies and lacks a documented township-level EOP, creating compliance gaps under NIMS and Michigan EMHSD guidance. Without a standardized notification posture, residents and staff remain at elevated risk during emergencies, and federal funding eligibility may be jeopardized.
The opportunity
The FY2026 Homeland Security Grant Program offers a direct funding path for mass-notification and emergency preparedness initiatives, reducing local budget pressure. Acting within the current grant cycle addresses compliance mandates, closes critical preparedness gaps, and strengthens the township's ability to protect residents reliably.

Discuss this project →Fleet Safety & Telematics Modernization
Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The township currently lacks documented dashcam and telematics adoption, creating liability exposure and limiting driver accountability and evidence collection. With active road maintenance operations underway, the absence of fleet safety technology represents a clear and preventable operational risk.
The opportunity
A potential road-maintenance millage renewal could free up general funds, and the FY 2026 Homeland Security Grant Program may offer an applicable funding pathway. Addressing fleet safety now reduces liability, supports driver coaching, and aligns with the upcoming fiscal planning cycle.
FY 2026 Homeland Security Grant Program
Discuss this project →Web Accessibility & Digital Portal Compliance
Digital Accessibility · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The township has identified WCAG 2.1 and ADA website accessibility obligations, but lacks a defined remediation timeline and has no documented digital services baseline. This gap exposes the township to legal liability and limits equitable resident access to public services.
The opportunity
Addressing accessibility compliance now aligns with general fund planning cycles and avoids escalating legal and reputational risk. With no incumbent digital services platform in place, the township can pursue a compliant, resident-centered solution without displacement friction.
