Fleet Video & Telematics Safety Modernization
Fleet Safety · Public Safety Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The village currently lacks documented fleet video and telematics capabilities, a gap made critical by a June 2025 police chase incident resulting in injuries and liability exposure. Ongoing Michigan Hands-Free Law requirements add a compliance dimension to an already urgent operational and public safety risk.
The opportunity
The fleet modernization program is budget-approved and the FY2026 Technology and Equipment Program (TEP) explicitly lists telematics as an eligible technology, offering a direct, non-competitive funding path. Acting within the current procurement window—supported by cooperative purchasing—advances compliance, reduces liability, and aligns with the FY27 budget cycle.

IT Modernization · Cybersecurity & Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The village is actively pursuing cloud-based IT modernization and a cybersecurity assessment following FY25 audit findings that identified material weaknesses in internal controls requiring corrective action. These gaps elevate operational and compliance risk across departments, demanding timely remediation to protect public data and ensure continuity of government services.
The opportunity
Capital improvement funding is already approved for cloud migration, and the upcoming FY27 budget cycle creates an active decision window. New village leadership is assessing technology priorities, and cooperative purchasing agreements are in place to streamline procurement—reducing time-to-implementation and supporting responsible stewardship of public funds.

Discuss this project →Cybersecurity & Secure Credential Management Modernization
Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
FY25 audit findings identified material weaknesses in internal controls, creating a compliance-driven mandate for corrective action in cybersecurity and secure credentialing. Without remediation, the organization faces continued audit exposure, elevated operational risk, and potential disruption to critical public services.
The opportunity
The FY2026 Technology and Equipment Program (TEP) grant explicitly includes secure credentialing as an eligible technology, offering a non-competitive funding path aligned with the upcoming budget cycle. Acting now leverages new leadership momentum, addresses active audit findings, and positions the organization for stronger compliance and IT resilience.
FY2026 TEP
Discuss this project →Water System Regulatory Compliance Study
Regulatory Compliance · Public Works
High Priority
About this project
The Michigan Safe Drinking Water Act mandates a completed and updated water system study by February 2027, creating a hard statutory deadline. Failure to meet this requirement exposes the municipality to regulatory penalties and risks to safe, reliable drinking water for residents.
The opportunity
The February 2027 deadline establishes a defined planning window that requires near-term procurement and study engagement to ensure on-time compliance. Acting within the current fiscal cycle supports orderly budgeting and reduces the risk of cost escalation or regulatory action.
Building Permitting Cloud Migration & Document Accessibility
IT Modernization · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The village has identified building permitting cloud migration and document accessibility as active strategic priorities, with audit findings citing material weaknesses in internal controls for FY25. Undigitized permitting workflows and inaccessible public-facing documents create operational bottlenecks and regulatory reporting risk.
The opportunity
Active capital approvals and an upcoming FY27 budget cycle create an immediate decision window, and cooperative purchasing vehicles are already in use to streamline acquisition. Addressing this now reduces audit exposure, improves public service delivery, and aligns with current technology investment momentum.

Discuss this project →Public Works Asset Management Modernization
Infrastructure Management · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The village's Department of Public Works lacks a structured system for managing roadway and infrastructure assets, creating gaps in maintenance planning and operational visibility. Without centralized asset tracking, the village faces increased risk of deferred maintenance, audit exposure, and inefficient use of limited capital funds.
The opportunity
Active capital improvement approvals and an upcoming budget cycle create a near-term window to advance this initiative with dedicated funding already in motion. Cooperative purchasing vehicles available to the village can streamline procurement and accelerate deployment, reducing time-to-value for residents and public works staff.
