Emergency Operations Plan & Preparedness Modernization
Emergency Management · Hazard Mitigation
High Priority
About this project
The county's hazard mitigation plan is 11 years old—well beyond standard review cycles—and the village lacks a defined, village-specific Emergency Operations Plan. Gaps in mass notification capability and unmet NIMS and EOP review mandates elevate operational and compliance risk for residents and staff.
The opportunity
Multiple grant programs with deadlines in July 2026, including HSGP, EMPG, TEP, and BRIC, offer near-term funding pathways aligned with this project. Floodplain management is a stated top priority, making this an ideal moment to close preparedness gaps and strengthen community resilience within the current grant window.
Mass Notification System Assessment & Upgrade
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The village's mass notification system status is unknown, creating a critical visibility gap that risks communication failures during emergencies. Combined with an outdated emergency operations plan, this exposes residents and staff to compounding preparedness and response deficiencies.
The opportunity
Grant funding windows through HSGP and EMPG close in July 2026, creating a defined and near-term opportunity to address this gap with eligible federal dollars. Acting now aligns with EOP modernization priorities, reduces operational risk, and strengthens community emergency response before the funding window closes.
Web Accessibility & ADA/WCAG Compliance Remediation
Web Accessibility · ADA Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The village faces a federally mandated WCAG/ADA website accessibility deadline of 2026–2027 with no remediation plan currently in place. This gap creates legal exposure and limits equitable resident access to public services and information online.
The opportunity
The April 2027 compliance deadline creates a defined decision window, and cooperative purchasing vehicles are available to streamline procurement and reduce administrative burden. Acting within the current fiscal cycle allows the village to mitigate legal risk and ensure all residents can access digital public services.

Fleet Management · Public Infrastructure
High Priority
About this project
Community concerns about traffic safety and speeding, combined with municipal liability exposure, signal a growing need for fleet safety improvements. The village has also identified EV readiness as a strategic priority, pointing to emerging gaps in fleet infrastructure and long-term operational planning.
The opportunity
Cooperative procurement vehicles offer efficient, budget-friendly pathways to address fleet safety and EV infrastructure needs within current fiscal planning cycles. Acting now positions the village to reduce liability risk, advance a stated strategic initiative, and align with grant programs that support transportation and fleet modernization.
