Emergency Operations Plan Development & Compliance
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The village lacks a public-facing Emergency Operations Plan, has no local exercises or accountability tracking, and relies entirely on county and 911 systems for emergency communications. Compliance mandates require urgent EOP review, and recent county-level emergency declarations highlight the operational and public safety risk of inaction.
The opportunity
Near-term grant deadlines tied to federal hazard and preparedness programs provide viable funding pathways with limited local match required. Acting within the current budget and grant cycle positions the village to close critical compliance gaps and strengthen community-level emergency readiness.
Village-Level Mass Notification System Implementation
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The village currently has no independent mass notification capability, relying entirely on county-managed systems that may not meet local communication needs during incidents. This gap, combined with an overdue Emergency Operations Plan review, elevates both operational and compliance risk for residents and staff.
The opportunity
Grant funding aligned with emergency preparedness — including HSGP windows closing in mid-2026 — provides a near-term pathway to address this gap with limited local match required. Acting within the current budget and grant cycle strengthens resident safety, supports EOP compliance, and positions the village for independent, reliable emergency communications.
Fleet Telematics & Vehicle Safety Modernization
Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The village currently operates plowing and fire department vehicles with no telematics or dashcam infrastructure in place, creating visibility gaps in fleet operations and driver accountability. The absence of any monitoring solution presents preventative safety and operational risk for a municipality reliant on these vehicles for essential public services.
The opportunity
JAG and TEP grant opportunities with near-term deadlines provide a clear funding pathway for fleet monitoring investments, and cooperative procurement options can reduce acquisition time and administrative burden. Acting within the current grant window aligns with the village's active budget cycle and supports long-term stewardship of public safety assets.
Web Accessibility & Digital Portal Compliance
Web Accessibility · Digital Services Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The village's website and digital services have identified WCAG 2.1 compliance gaps, with accessibility topics tabled for internal discussion. Unresolved accessibility barriers on public-facing portals and outdated PDF forms create legal exposure and limit equitable access for residents.
The opportunity
The February 2026 budget meeting presents a near-term window for scoping and approval, aligning with the village's active Capital Improvement Plan cycle. Addressing compliance now reduces legal risk, improves resident access, and may be eligible for cooperative procurement to streamline the process.
