Emergency Operations Plan Development & Compliance
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
Holmes Township lacks a documented Emergency Operations Plan, recorded EOP reviews, or evidence of exercises — gaps that directly conflict with NIMS/ICS compliance mandates. A recent severe flooding emergency has elevated operational exposure and underscored the urgency of formalizing preparedness protocols.
The opportunity
A Presidential Major Disaster Declaration and active federal disaster relief fund requests signal near-term budget availability and strong alignment with the current HSGP grant cycle. Addressing these preparedness gaps now reduces compliance risk, strengthens disaster response, and positions the township to responsibly steward available public funding.

Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
Holmes Township relies on county-level alerting infrastructure, and a recent flooding emergency has exposed critical gaps in public warning capabilities, EOP documentation, and NIMS/ICS compliance. Without modernized mass notification systems, residents and staff face elevated risk during future disaster events.
The opportunity
A Presidential Major Disaster Declaration and active HSGP grant cycle signal strong federal funding availability for emergency alerting and preparedness investments. Acting now aligns with county hazard mitigation planning, closes documented compliance gaps, and strengthens community resilience ahead of the next fiscal cycle.

Emergency Management · Hazard Mitigation
High Priority
About this project
Holmes Township faces critical emergency preparedness gaps—including no documented EOP, no recorded exercises, and outdated risk assessments—amid a recent severe flooding event that triggered a local state of emergency. The active Menominee County Hazard Mitigation Plan update creates both a compliance obligation and an operational urgency to align township-level mitigation strategies with county and state requirements.
The opportunity
A Presidential Major Disaster Declaration and the FY2026 Homeland Security Grant Program open near-term federal funding pathways with strong alignment to hazard mitigation and emergency preparedness investments. Acting within the current county plan update cycle positions the township to meet NIMS/ICS compliance mandates, close critical preparedness gaps, and strengthen community resilience before the next severe weather season.

Discuss this project →Fleet Telematics & Road Maintenance Safety
Fleet Management · Public Works Safety
High Priority
About this project
Holmes Township lacks documented telematics infrastructure for its road and maintenance fleet, creating unmitigated operational and liability risk. Without visibility into vehicle activity, the township has limited ability to proactively manage driver safety or respond to incidents on public roads.
The opportunity
Federal grant funding, including programs aligned with homeland security and public safety, may offset implementation costs, and cooperative procurement channels simplify acquisition. Acting within the current fiscal cycle positions the township to reduce risk before road conditions or incidents escalate.
