Emergency Operations Plan & Preparedness Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
Hartland Township's Emergency Operations Plan is 8 years old and overdue for review, with no named Emergency Management Coordinator and an unknown mass notification status. These gaps create significant compliance and operational risk under NIMS alignment requirements and Michigan Act mandates.
The opportunity
Grant programs including HSGP and BRIC offer strong funding alignment for preparedness initiatives, and a potential fire services millage could further expand available resources. Acting within the current fiscal cycle addresses critical compliance mandates and reduces operational risk to residents and first responders.
IT & Cybersecurity Modernization for Township Operations
IT Modernization · Cybersecurity Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The township's managed IT services contract has expired and is operating month-to-month, creating procurement instability ahead of the FY26-27 budget cycle. Cybersecurity controls are only partially in place with no formal policy, leaving public systems and resident data at operational and compliance risk.
The opportunity
An active budget cycle and expiring contract create a defined procurement window to modernize IT infrastructure and formalize cybersecurity policy. Acting now supports continuity of public services, reduces exposure, and aligns with cooperative purchasing options that streamline procurement for eligible government entities.
Web Accessibility & Digital Services Compliance
Web Accessibility · Digital Services Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The township has an active initiative targeting WCAG 2.1 AA conformance for its public-facing website and digital services, but no conformance schedule is in place. Unresolved gaps create legal exposure and limit equitable public access under federal and state web accessibility mandates.
The opportunity
Leadership has publicly committed to a conformance goal, establishing a defined end-state and near-term window for action. Addressing gaps now reduces legal risk, improves resident-facing service delivery, and aligns with the current fiscal planning cycle.

Fleet Safety · Public Works Operations
High Priority
About this project
Without a formal fleet safety program or onboard video, the township faces undetected liability exposure and limited ability to defend against incident claims. Rising local crash reports compound this risk, leaving public assets and staff vulnerable without proactive safeguards in place.
The opportunity
Homeland Security Grant Program funding may offset implementation costs, and cooperative procurement agreements provide a streamlined, compliant path to acquisition. Acting within the current fiscal cycle positions the township to reduce liability exposure and establish a defensible, data-driven fleet safety baseline.
Mass Notification System Assessment & Upgrade
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
Hartland Township's mass notification system status is entirely unknown, creating a critical gap in emergency communications and elevating compliance risk under NIMS and Michigan Act mandates. Without a verified, operational system, the township cannot meet emergency preparedness requirements or reliably alert residents during incidents.
The opportunity
Homeland Security Grant Program (HSGP) funding is available to support mass notification and emergency preparedness initiatives, reducing the local cost burden. Addressing this gap now aligns with the township's broader EOP modernization effort and positions the project for the upcoming fiscal planning and grant cycle.
