Emergency Operations Plan Development & Preparedness Gap Remediation
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The Village has no publicly available Emergency Operations Plan, no local Emergency Management Coordinator, and depends entirely on county-level mass notification services. This creates significant regulatory exposure under EOP review cycle mandates and Section 19 eligibility requirements, leaving residents and staff without a locally controlled emergency response framework.
The opportunity
Homeland Security grant programs, including HSGP and AEL-eligible funding, provide a direct path to address these gaps with limited local match required. Acting within the current grant cycle closes critical compliance and operational risk while establishing a sustainable, locally governed emergency preparedness posture.

Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The Village currently has no independent mass notification capability, relying entirely on county infrastructure to reach residents during emergencies. This dependency limits local control, creates operational risk, and leaves the Village vulnerable if county systems are unavailable or prioritized elsewhere.
The opportunity
Emergency management grants, including HSGP-aligned funding, provide a direct path to establish a locally controlled notification system with limited municipal match required. Acting within the current grant cycle strengthens compliance posture, closes a documented preparedness gap, and ensures residents receive timely, direct emergency communications.

Discuss this project →Fleet Safety & Telematics Modernization
Fleet Management · Public Works Safety
High Priority
About this project
A documented mechanical failure on a fire apparatus and active motor-pool discussions signal unmanaged operational risk across the Village's fleet. With no telematics solution currently in place, vehicle safety, maintenance visibility, and liability exposure remain unaddressed.
The opportunity
The Edward Byrne Memorial JAG grant offers a potential funding pathway, and cooperative procurement vehicles can reduce acquisition timelines and administrative burden. Acting within the current fiscal cycle positions the Village to close a greenfield safety gap before fleet operations expand further.

Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The Village lacks centralized endpoint management and cybersecurity infrastructure, leaving municipal systems and public data exposed to unmitigated risk. With no visible security baseline in place, even modest connected assets remain unprotected, creating operational and compliance vulnerability.
The opportunity
Recent IT investments signal readiness for deliberate, right-sized security improvements within existing budget structures. Targeted endpoint and credential management solutions are eligible for cooperative procurement vehicles and may align with the upcoming fiscal planning cycle.

Discuss this project →Web Accessibility & Digital Services Compliance
Digital Accessibility · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The Village's digital services and online payment platforms may carry unresolved ADA/WCAG accessibility gaps, exposing the municipality to compliance risk and limiting equitable public access. Recent payment system upgrades signal digital awareness, but full accessibility conformance likely remains incomplete.
The opportunity
ADA/WCAG compliance obligations are ongoing and enforceable, making staged remediation by risk severity a fiscally responsible path aligned with current budget constraints. Addressing gaps now reduces legal exposure and improves service equity for all residents during the upcoming fiscal planning cycle.
