Emergency Operations & Mass Notification Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The department faces critical preparedness gaps with unknown EOP and mass notification status, a funding shortfall for the emergency management position, and a recent state emergency declaration underscoring unmet needs. County-level notification coverage may not fully address departmental requirements, elevating operational and public safety risk.
The opportunity
Aligned grant programs (HSGP, BRIC, EMPG) with 2026 deadlines and active participation in the county/state Hazard Mitigation Plan create a 90-day strategic window to close preparedness gaps. The August 2026 fire operations millage renewal adds a hard fiscal deadline, making near-term action essential for funding continuity and community resilience.
Web & Document Accessibility Compliance Readiness
ADA Compliance · Digital Accessibility
High Priority
About this project
A federal compliance mandate requires public-facing websites and documents to meet WCAG/ADA accessibility standards by 2026–2027, and no remediation plan or supporting technology is currently in place. This gap exposes the Township to legal liability and restricts equitable public access to government services and information.
The opportunity
The 2026–2027 deadline creates a near-term window for evaluation and procurement before compliance risk escalates. Acting within the current fiscal cycle allows the Township to leverage cooperative purchasing vehicles and align spending with existing IT budget capacity while ensuring equitable, uninterrupted public access to digital services.

IT Modernization · Operational Continuity
High Priority
About this project
The township lacks enterprise-grade endpoint management, creating visibility and oversight gaps across its device environment. As broadband infrastructure expands and device counts grow, unmanaged endpoints elevate operational risk and strain limited IT staff capacity.
The opportunity
Broadband expansion grants and active capital planning create a near-term window to address endpoint oversight before infrastructure growth outpaces management capacity. Cooperative procurement vehicles are available to streamline acquisition and align with the upcoming fiscal cycle.

Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The township currently lacks an enterprise credential management solution, leaving staff access points unprotected and audit trails incomplete. This gap elevates risk of unauthorized access, data exposure, and non-compliance with baseline cybersecurity standards expected of public entities.
The opportunity
Cybersecurity investments for local government are increasingly eligible for state and federal grant funding, including HSGP and EMPG programs with 2026 deadlines. Addressing this gap now aligns with the upcoming fiscal planning cycle and reduces operational and compliance exposure before the next audit or incident.
Fire Department Equipment & Operations Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The fire department has identified equipment and operational modernization as a strategic priority, with contracted fire services requiring closer operational alignment. Gaps in emergency preparedness—including unclear EOP status and mass notification coverage—elevate risk to public safety and service continuity.
The opportunity
The August 2026 millage renewal and active Capital Improvement Plan create a defined budget decision window, while grants such as HSGP, BRIC, and EMPG offer eligible funding paths for emergency management upgrades. Acting within the current cycle positions the township to close preparedness gaps and strengthen community resilience ahead of the renewal vote.
