ADA & Web Accessibility Compliance Modernization
Web Accessibility · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The Village's public-facing website does not meet ADA/WCAG accessibility or current security standards, creating legal exposure and eroding public trust. A compliance deadline of April 2027 mandates remediation, and failure to act risks service inequity for residents with disabilities and ongoing regulatory liability.
The opportunity
The April 2027 deadline and active FY2026–27 budget planning create a defined window to fund and execute this project within the current fiscal cycle. Cooperative purchasing vehicles can reduce procurement complexity, and eligible state or federal funding pathways may offset local costs.

Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The Village lacks a public Emergency Operations Plan, relies on county-level mass notification systems, and has no documented exercises on record. These gaps create measurable compliance and operational risk, leaving residents and staff without a coordinated response framework during emergencies.
The opportunity
Homeland Security Grant Program (HSGP) funding offers a viable path to address preparedness gaps with limited local budget impact. Acting within the current grant window allows the Village to meet EOP review requirements, establish independent notification capability, and reduce liability before the next severe weather season.
Cybersecurity & IT Security Modernization
Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The Village's website lacks secure protocols and inconsistent email domains signal a fragmented IT environment with limited existing security infrastructure. Minimal annual IT spend heightens exposure to cyber threats and raises compliance risk ahead of the April 2027 ADA and security mandate deadline.
The opportunity
Grant programs such as JAG and TEP offer viable funding paths for security improvements, and the active FY2026–27 budget cycle creates a timely entry point. Addressing these gaps now reduces operational and compliance risk while protecting public data and municipal service continuity.
Financial & Accounting Software Modernization
Financial Management · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The Village is experiencing recurring reconciliation issues with its current accounting software, signaling that the existing solution no longer meets municipal financial management requirements. Without a reliable system, the risk of reporting errors, audit findings, and budget mismanagement grows — directly impacting fiscal stewardship and public trust.
The opportunity
The recent FY2026-27 budget hearing signals an active planning window, making this an ideal time to evaluate modern solutions eligible through cooperative procurement vehicles. Acting now can reduce operational risk, streamline financial reporting, and align implementation with the upcoming fiscal cycle.

Discuss this project →Municipal Fleet Safety & Telematics Modernization
Fleet Safety · Public Works Operations
High Priority
About this project
The Village operates a small municipal fleet, volunteer fire apparatus, and public works vehicles with no existing safety or telematics technology in place. This gap creates moderate but measurable risk to personnel safety, vehicle accountability, and operational continuity across both routine and emergency response functions.
The opportunity
Active fleet and transportation planning signals an upcoming budget window to address this greenfield gap with minimal disruption. Implementing fleet safety technology now supports stewardship of public assets, reduces liability exposure, and may align with cooperative procurement vehicles to streamline acquisition.
