Emergency Operations Plan Development & EM Coordination
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The township lacks a township-specific Emergency Operations Plan and a named Emergency Management Coordinator, relying solely on county-level alerts. This gap creates measurable exposure to NIMS and EOP compliance mandates, leaving residents and staff without a localized emergency response framework.
The opportunity
Two FEMA grant opportunities with near-term deadlines offer direct funding pathways, and the annual budget cycle creates immediate planning urgency. Addressing this now reduces compliance risk, strengthens community resilience, and aligns with demonstrated leadership prioritization of emergency services.

ADA Compliance · Digital Accessibility
High Priority
About this project
The township faces a confirmed ADA Title II mandate requiring WCAG 2.1 AA compliance across public-facing digital portals and documents by April 24, 2027. Unresolved gaps create legal exposure and restrict equitable resident access to municipal services.
The opportunity
The 2027 compliance deadline and the township's active FY 2026–2027 budget cycle create a defined window to act. Procurement through cooperative contracting vehicles can streamline acquisition, and addressing gaps now reduces legal risk while expanding equitable access to public services.

IT Modernization · Cybersecurity Readiness
High Priority
About this project
Port Sheldon Township has identified cybersecurity readiness and data services budgeting as a strategic priority, yet documented IT and software investment remains critically low, signaling meaningful infrastructure gaps. Without foundational security controls, township systems, staff data, and resident services face elevated operational and compliance risk.
The opportunity
The township's annual budget cycle in February and March creates a near-term window to advance cybersecurity investments, and co-op procurement vehicles can help maximize limited local funds. Acting within the current fiscal cycle positions the township to close security gaps, reduce audit exposure, and protect essential public services.

Digital Services Modernization · Web Accessibility Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The township has a strategic initiative to expand online municipal services, supported by a recent Deputy Clerk hire dedicated to digital services, but current platforms represent a limited and aging digital footprint. A 2027 ADA Title II WCAG 2.1 AA compliance deadline creates a firm regulatory driver to modernize public-facing services before penalties or accessibility failures occur.
The opportunity
The upcoming February/March budget cycle is the near-term window to fund this initiative, and the 2027 compliance deadline creates urgency to act within the current planning period. Modernizing digital service delivery now improves resident access, reduces compliance risk, and aligns with the township's stated strategic priorities.

Discuss this project →Fleet Safety & Vehicle Risk Mitigation
Fleet Management · Public Asset Protection
High Priority
About this project
The township sustained $7,000 in property damage from a vehicle incident with no dash cameras or telematics currently in place to prevent recurrence. This unaddressed operational risk exposes public assets and creates ongoing liability without a mitigation strategy.
The opportunity
The upcoming annual budget cycle (February/March) presents a timely window to build a business case and advance procurement through cooperative purchasing vehicles already available to the township. Addressing fleet risk now protects public assets, reduces liability exposure, and supports responsible stewardship of taxpayer funds.
