Emergency Operations Plan & Preparedness Program Development
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The township lacks a local Emergency Operations Plan, a designated Emergency Management Coordinator, and documented exercises, relying entirely on county support. Recent severe weather declarations and unmet NIMS implementation and EOP compliance mandates elevate operational and public safety risk.
The opportunity
Active FY26–27 budget planning and a new Township Manager create favorable timing for preparedness investment, with HSGP and BRIC grant programs offering direct funding paths. Addressing these gaps now reduces compliance exposure and strengthens community resilience ahead of the next severe weather season.
Township Mass Notification System Adoption
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The township currently lacks an independent mass notification system, relying on county-level infrastructure that leaves gaps in direct resident and staff communications during emergencies. Combined with the absence of a township EOP and named EM Coordinator, this creates measurable NIMS compliance and operational readiness risk.
The opportunity
Cooperative purchasing vehicles and aligned federal grant programs can reduce procurement complexity and local cost burden. With a new Township Manager in place and active FY budget planning underway, this is a favorable window to close preparedness gaps and meet emergency management compliance mandates.
Web Accessibility & Digital Portal Compliance
Web Accessibility · Digital Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The township faces active WCAG/ADA compliance gaps that create legal exposure and limit equitable public access to digital services. With the Website Committee already discussing a redesign, unresolved accessibility deficiencies represent both a compliance mandate and a public trust risk.
The opportunity
The Website Committee's live redesign discussions and FY26–27 budget planning create an immediate window to embed accessibility compliance into the project scope. Cooperative procurement channels are available to streamline acquisition and support responsible stewardship of public funds.

Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The township relies on consumer-grade email for official communications and lacks enterprise endpoint management, creating measurable data governance and credential security risks. These gaps expose public records, staff devices, and sensitive operations to threats that enterprise-grade controls are designed to prevent.
The opportunity
A new Township Manager and recently adopted purchasing policy create favorable timing for technology prioritization within the current fiscal cycle. Cooperative purchasing vehicles are available to streamline procurement, and select cybersecurity investments may be eligible for federal grant funding, reducing local cost burden.
Fleet Telematics & Vehicle Monitoring Implementation
Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The township is actively procuring large fleet assets, including a fire truck, with no existing telematics or vehicle monitoring capability in place. This gap creates liability exposure and limits event documentation for both municipal and fire operations.
The opportunity
Active fleet procurement creates a natural, time-aligned entry point for telematics adoption, and the TEP grant is applicable to municipal fleet projects. Cooperative purchasing agreements can streamline procurement, reduce costs, and accelerate deployment within the current fiscal cycle.
