Village-Level Emergency Operations Plan & Coordinator Program
Emergency Management · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The Village lacks a publicly available Emergency Operations Plan, a designated Emergency Management Coordinator, and documented HSEEP-style exercises — creating significant regulatory and operational exposure. Compliance mandates tied to EOP, NIMS, and EMPG eligibility require foundational emergency management infrastructure to be in place.
The opportunity
The adopted FY 2026–2027 budget opens a procurement window, and BRIC and HSGP grant programs are identified funding matches aligned to this project's scope. Acting now addresses compliance risk, strengthens community resilience, and positions the Village to capture available grant dollars before eligibility windows close.
Web Accessibility & ADA Compliance Remediation
Web Accessibility · Digital Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The Village faces unresolved WCAG 2.1 and ADA compliance gaps across its digital presence, creating legal exposure and barriers to equitable public access. With the existing website managed by a third-party vendor, remediation requires coordinated action before compliance risk escalates further.
The opportunity
The FY 2026–2027 budget cycle and a pending community-focused grant ($10K–$25K) create a near-term window to fund accessibility remediation. Acting now reduces legal liability, advances equitable service delivery, and aligns spending with an active funding opportunity.
Consumers Energy Foundation grant
Discuss this project →Fleet Telematics & Safety Monitoring Modernization
Fleet Safety · Public Works Operations
High Priority
About this project
The Village currently lacks in-cab video and telematics across its fleet, a gap identified as a top operational safety risk. Active fleet capital spending and a recently adopted risk management posture—including a Fire Insurance Withholding Program—signal readiness to address vehicle safety and accountability.
The opportunity
JAG and COPS grant programs offer viable funding pathways for fleet safety technology, and cooperative purchasing vehicles are confirmed available to reduce procurement friction. The recently adopted FY 2026–2027 budget and ongoing fleet expenditures create a timely entry point for advancing this initiative.
Build Independent Mass Notification Capability
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The Village currently depends on a county-operated notification system, limiting its ability to independently alert residents during localized emergencies. This gap in direct communication capability elevates operational risk and conflicts with NIMS and EOP compliance expectations.
The opportunity
BRIC and HSGP grant programs provide viable funding pathways for a village-owned alerting solution, with the recently adopted FY 2026–2027 budget creating a timely procurement window. Acting now aligns with active compliance mandates and supports broader emergency preparedness goals already underway.
