Emergency Operations Plan Development
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The Village of Peck has no Emergency Operations Plan, no documented exercises, and no formal emergency management staffing, leaving residents unprotected during incidents. Recent severe weather events and NIMS adoption mandates make closing these gaps both an operational and compliance imperative.
The opportunity
An active CDBG grant application under the Emergency Management and Public Safety category creates a near-term funding pathway aligned with this project. Acting within the current grant cycle advances NIMS compliance, reduces community risk, and positions the village for county-level hazard mitigation partnerships.
Mass Notification System Implementation
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The village currently lacks a mass notification system, leaving residents and staff without a reliable alerting mechanism during emergencies or severe weather events that have already occurred. This gap, combined with NIMS compliance obligations and county-level hazard mitigation responsibilities, elevates both operational and public safety risk.
The opportunity
Active grant funding windows and county-level hazard mitigation planning create strong financial and strategic alignment for near-term action. Addressing this gap now supports compliance, strengthens community resilience, and positions the village to leverage available public safety funding before current windows close.
Credential Security and Password Management Modernization
Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The village lacks a documented password management solution and relies on village-hosted email, indicating unmanaged credential security and likely endpoint vulnerabilities. Without formal controls, sensitive government systems and resident data remain exposed to preventable breaches and unauthorized access.
The opportunity
Grant deadlines in 2026 provide a time-bound funding path for cybersecurity initiatives, and cooperative purchasing vehicles such as MiDEAL or Sourcewell can streamline procurement once a need is formally recognized. Acting within the current fiscal window reduces operational risk and positions the village to meet emerging state and federal cybersecurity expectations.
Fleet Telematics & Driver Safety Program Launch
Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The village currently lacks in-vehicle video and telematics capabilities, relying on informal fleet oversight that creates documented safety risks for drivers and the public. Without a formal fleet management program, the village has limited visibility into vehicle operations, incident accountability, and risk mitigation.
The opportunity
Grant opportunities with 2026 deadlines are explicitly aligned to fleet safety initiatives, and cooperative purchasing vehicles can streamline procurement once leadership prioritizes the effort. Acting within the current funding cycle reduces liability exposure and supports responsible stewardship of public assets.
Web Accessibility & Digital Portal Compliance
Digital Accessibility · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The village's public-facing website lacks documented WCAG/ADA compliance status, creating potential accessibility barriers for residents with disabilities. Without confirmed standards or contract oversight, the municipality faces legal exposure and inequitable access to essential public services.
The opportunity
Addressing accessibility gaps now aligns with the upcoming procurement cycle and positions the village ahead of federal ADA enforcement trends. Remediation may be eligible for CDBG or state digital equity funding, reducing local budget impact while improving public service delivery.
