Emergency Operations Plan Development & Preparedness
Emergency Management · Grant Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The Village has no public EOP, no documented HSEEP-style exercises, and unresolved NIMS compliance gaps, creating significant planning and coordination risks. The EOP review is explicitly overdue, and continued inaction puts federal and state funding eligibility at direct risk.
The opportunity
Near-term grant deadlines in July 2026 — including BRIC and HSGP — create a time-sensitive window to close preparedness gaps while leveraging available federal funding. Acting within the current fiscal cycle strengthens compliance standing, reduces operational risk, and protects the community's access to emergency management resources.
Mass Notification System Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The Village's current mass notification system has unknown contract and maintenance status, creating operational uncertainty and potential gaps in public alerting capability. With an overdue EOP review, no documented HSEEP-style exercises, and ongoing NIMS compliance requirements, the risk of losing federal and state emergency management funding is real and immediate.
The opportunity
Mass notification modernization is already embedded in the Village's Master Plan, and a recently approved FY2026/2027 budget with a net surplus signals funding availability. Near-term grant windows — including BRIC and HSGP — align directly with this initiative, making the current fiscal cycle an actionable window to close compliance gaps and strengthen community-wide emergency alerting.
Body-Worn & In-Car Camera Deployment with Cloud Evidence Storage
Public Safety · Fleet & Evidence Management
High Priority
About this project
The department is actively seeking quotes for body-worn and in-car cameras but has been unable to move forward due to cloud storage costs. A recent fleet-involved hit-and-run incident highlights the liability exposure and urgent need for reliable evidentiary video capture.
The opportunity
The JAG grant explicitly covers body-worn cameras and data storage, with a July 2026 deadline offering a funded path to address cost barriers. With a newly approved FY2026–2027 budget and active procurement interest, the timing is favorable to advance this initiative before a leadership transition introduces further delay.
Fleet Safety Technology & Vehicle Management Modernization
Fleet Management · Public Works Infrastructure
High Priority
About this project
The Village currently lacks a fleet management solution, leaving vehicle operations without visibility, accountability, or safety controls. A recent fleet-involved incident underscores the liability and safety risks of this gap, while the Master Plan's vehicle capital program signals a strategic mandate to address it.
The opportunity
The newly approved FY2026/2027 budget with a net surplus and a capital focus on DPW infrastructure create a near-term funding window for fleet technology investment. Acting within this cycle aligns with the Master Plan, reduces operational liability, and positions the Village to leverage cooperative procurement pathways for cost-effective acquisition.

IT Modernization · Digital Service Delivery
High Priority
About this project
The Village's Master Plan identifies recognized gaps in website functionality, digital service delivery, and records/data management, signaling unmet resident service needs and operational inefficiencies. Without modernization, the Village risks continued service delivery gaps and missed compliance benchmarks for public-facing digital accessibility.
The opportunity
The recently approved FY2026/2027 budget with a net surplus and available MSHDA Community Development Block Grant funds create a clear, near-term funding window to advance these initiatives. Acting within the current fiscal cycle aligns with the Village's strategic plan and maximizes use of approved capital before the window narrows.
