Emergency Operations Plan Development & Compliance Review
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The township lacks a publicly available Emergency Operations Plan, has no designated local Emergency Management Coordinator, and depends on county-level mass notification systems. These gaps create measurable compliance and operational risk, with active NIMS implementation requirements and EOP review cycles currently unmet.
The opportunity
Identified funding paths through homeland security and hazard mitigation grant programs are available within the current planning window, with the Jackson County Hazard Mitigation Plan review adding urgency ahead of 2027. Addressing these gaps now reduces liability, satisfies compliance mandates, and strengthens community-level emergency response capacity.
Web Accessibility & ADA Digital Compliance Remediation
Web Accessibility · ADA Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The township has formally committed to WCAG 2.1 Level AA standards, with board-level discussions and cost approvals signaling active recognition of ADA compliance gaps. Unresolved accessibility barriers on public-facing digital assets create legal exposure and limit equitable resident access to government services.
The opportunity
Board approval and active budget discussions create a near-term window to act before compliance risk escalates. Addressing digital accessibility now supports equitable service delivery, reduces legal liability, and aligns with the current fiscal planning cycle for eligible remediation investments.

Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The township's growing reliance on multiple SaaS platforms creates fragmented credential management and elevated identity risk. The expansion into online payments further broadens the cybersecurity exposure surface, increasing vulnerability to unauthorized access and data compromise.
The opportunity
The COPS TEP grant offers a viable funding path for cybersecurity initiatives, aligning with the current budget cycle and procurement capacity. Acting now reduces credential-related risk, supports operational continuity, and positions the township to responsibly steward public data and financial systems.

Discuss this project →VFD Fleet Safety & Telematics Modernization
Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
Volunteer Fire Department vehicles currently operate without dash cameras or telematics, creating measurable safety, liability, and accountability gaps in emergency fleet operations. Without real-time monitoring, the township faces elevated risk exposure and limited visibility into vehicle performance and incident documentation.
The opportunity
A PARPLAN safety grant signal and cooperative purchasing programs available to Michigan government entities can reduce procurement complexity and local cost burden. Addressing fleet monitoring gaps now strengthens emergency response accountability and positions the township ahead of the upcoming fiscal planning cycle.

Discuss this project →Mass Notification System Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The township currently depends on county-level mass notification infrastructure, limiting direct control over resident and staff communications during emergencies. This gap creates operational risk and conflicts with NIMS compliance requirements tied to local emergency preparedness mandates.
The opportunity
Dedicated local notification capability aligns with the current 90-day engagement priority and may be eligible for HSGP and BRIC grant funding within the active grant cycle. Acting now reduces compliance exposure and strengthens direct community response readiness ahead of the next fiscal planning window.
