Emergency Operations Plan Development and Coordination
Emergency Management · Hazard Mitigation
High Priority
About this project
The township lacks a publicly posted Emergency Operations Plan, has no designated township Emergency Management Coordinator, and has unverified mass-notification coverage — gaps that conflict with state guidance requiring a current EOP and active coordination with Marquette County Emergency Management for hazard mitigation.
The opportunity
Two FEMA grant programs with July 2026 deadlines offer viable funding paths to close preparedness gaps, and a newly appointed Emergency Manager signals leadership readiness to act. Advancing this project now aligns with the Master Plan's hazard mitigation priorities and the current FY budget and grant planning cycle.

Discuss this project →Fleet Telematics & Vehicle Safety Program
Fleet Management · Public Works Safety
High Priority
About this project
The township has sustained a documented 10.4% year-over-year insurance premium increase and ongoing vehicle repair costs, with no comprehensive telematics or dashcam program in place. These gaps create measurable financial and safety risks to fleet operations and stewardship of public assets.
The opportunity
Active fleet and vehicle maintenance spending signals available budget, and the FY26/27 budget approval in March 2026 creates a near-term procurement window. Addressing telematics and driver safety now can reduce insurance exposure, lower repair costs, and align with cooperative purchasing options that simplify procurement.

Discuss this project →Strengthening Enterprise Cybersecurity Through Password Management
Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The township currently lacks an enterprise password management solution, leaving credentials and sensitive systems vulnerable to unauthorized access. This foundational gap increases exposure to data breaches and operational disruption, with limited visibility into overall IT spend making risk scoping a challenge.
The opportunity
An upcoming FY26/27 budget cycle and active leadership transition create a timely window to establish baseline cybersecurity controls before new priorities are set. Addressing this gap now supports operational continuity, reduces breach risk, and may align with state or cooperative procurement vehicles to streamline acquisition.
IT Remote Monitoring and Endpoint Management Modernization
IT Modernization · Operational Continuity
High Priority
About this project
The township currently lacks a documented Remote Monitoring and Management solution, creating gaps in IT visibility, endpoint oversight, and proactive issue response. Without this capability, staff and service delivery are exposed to undetected system failures and unmanaged infrastructure risk.
The opportunity
The township's Master Plan identifies funded initiatives for ongoing IT support, and an incoming Township Manager creates a timely window to advance infrastructure priorities ahead of the FY26/27 budget cycle. Addressing this gap now supports operational continuity and aligns with active budgetary intent.
