Emergency Operations Plan Review & Compliance Readiness
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The Village faces an unclear EOP status, overdue NIMS compliance review cycles, and documented gaps in public exercise reporting — all carrying direct funding consequences. Recent declared emergencies and a county-level mass notification failure underscore the operational risk of delayed action.
The opportunity
Federal grant programs with 2026 deadlines offer a viable funding path for preparedness and notification improvements, with limited local match required. The current leadership transition creates a strategic opening to advance compliance, reduce funding risk, and strengthen community resilience this fiscal cycle.
Modernize Village-Controlled Mass Notification
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The Village depends on a county-operated notification system that recently experienced a documented failure, directly disrupting local emergency communications. This reliance on an external system—alongside gaps in EOP status and NIMS compliance—creates measurable operational and funding risk.
The opportunity
HSGP and BRIC grant opportunities with 2026 deadlines directly support mass notification upgrades, reducing the local funding burden. Acting now aligns with the Hazard Mitigation Plan update, satisfies compliance mandates, and positions new Village leadership to deliver a high-priority public safety outcome.
Web Accessibility & ADA Compliance Modernization
Digital Accessibility · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The Village has identified gaps in digital accessibility across public-facing portals and has an active effort underway to meet WCAG/ADA standards. Unresolved compliance gaps create ongoing legal exposure and limit equitable resident access to government services.
The opportunity
A new Village Manager's tenure presents a timely opening to elevate digital accessibility as a modernization priority, with compliance obligations providing standing justification for action. Addressing these gaps now reduces legal risk, improves public service equity, and aligns with the upcoming fiscal planning cycle.
Strengthen Municipal Endpoint Security and IT Management
Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The Village lacks visible endpoint security or IT management tooling, leaving municipal operations and resident data exposed to cybersecurity risk. With a new Village Manager recently onboarded, this gap represents both an operational vulnerability and a timely opportunity to establish a defensible security baseline.
The opportunity
Leadership transitions often prompt IT posture reviews, and cooperative purchasing channels can reduce procurement complexity and timeline. Addressing endpoint security now supports operational continuity, protects public data, and aligns with the current fiscal planning cycle.
