Emergency Operations Plan Development & Mass Notification
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The village lacks a posted Emergency Operations Plan and has documented gaps in resident alert awareness, creating measurable public safety risk. Michigan compliance mandates require EOP development and NIMS implementation to maintain federal funding eligibility, and a recent county Emergency Management leadership transition adds urgency to regional coordination.
The opportunity
HSGP and BRIC grant deadlines in 2026 provide a near-term funding window with strong alignment to EOP and mass-notification initiatives. The recently adopted FY2026-27 budget cycle creates a timely entry point to close compliance gaps, strengthen resident safety, and preserve federal funding eligibility.
Web Accessibility & Digital Compliance Modernization
Web Accessibility · Digital Communications
High Priority
About this project
The village has identified WCAG/ADA compliance gaps across its public-facing website, creating legal exposure and limiting equitable access for residents. A stated strategic initiative to improve digital resident communications underscores the urgency of addressing these gaps before they escalate into formal complaints or litigation.
The opportunity
WCAG/ADA compliance mandates create a clear and time-sensitive driver for action, with the recently adopted FY2026–27 budget offering a near-term funding window. Addressing accessibility gaps now reduces legal risk, advances the village's resident communications initiative, and supports equitable access to public services.
Fleet Safety & Telematics Program Launch
Fleet Management · Public Works Safety
High Priority
About this project
The village currently lacks any documented fleet safety program, creating unmitigated operational and liability risk for public works staff and residents. Growing water infrastructure activity signals increased fleet utilization without corresponding safety oversight or monitoring in place.
The opportunity
With a recently adopted FY2026–27 budget and no incumbent solution, this is an ideal entry point to establish a fleet safety baseline aligned with current budget planning. Water infrastructure budget increases may provide a funding pathway, and early action reduces liability exposure before incidents occur.
IT Support and Cybersecurity Modernization
IT Modernization · Cybersecurity
High Priority
About this project
The village's IT support budget is growing, signaling increased recognition of technology and security needs, yet overall annual IT spend remains limited. Reliance on a third-party email hosting provider introduces a cybersecurity exposure vector that warrants attention as digital infrastructure expands.
The opportunity
The recently adopted FY2026–27 budget reflects upward momentum in tech support funding, creating a near-term window to address endpoint security and managed IT gaps. Proactive investment now reduces operational risk and positions the village to meet evolving cybersecurity compliance expectations cost-effectively.
