IN RE: PROBATE COURT - NEED FOR SUPPLEMENTAL APPROPRIATION
FOR THE STATEWIDE CHILD CARE FUND
TO THE OAKLAND COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS
Mr. Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS, Section 117A(4) of PA 87 of 1978 as amended, provides for
fifty percent (50%) reimbursement by the State for County CCF expenditures; and
WHEREAS, in 1981 the State Legislature capped the State CCF appropria-
tion, forcing Counties to accept County CCF expenditure caps based on their
individual 1979 through 1980 expenditure levels; and
WHEREAS, no increases were granted in the State CCF appropriation in
1981 through 1.982 and 1982 through 1983 and subsequent increases have been
inadequate to reimburse Counties at the fifty percent (50%) level provided in
the statute; and
WHEREAS, inflation, increases in foster care rates and institutional
per diem rates have substantially increased CCF expenditures since the cap was
established; and
WHEREAS, a supplemental appropriation of 1.4 million added to the 1984
through 1985 State CCF appropriation would enable all Counties to receive approxi-
mately fifty percent (50%) reimbursement for 1984 through 1985 CCF expenditure
(even those over cap); and
WHEREAS, Michigan Association of Counties, urges our State Legislature
to enact a supplemental appropriation to the 1984 through 1985 State CCF of at
least 1.4 million; and
WHEREAS, Michigan Association of Counties, urges our State Legislature
to support and enact future State CCF appropriation increases sufficient to
reimburse Counties at fifty percent (50%) for all CCF expenditures; and
BY:
WHEREAS, without a supplemental allocation Oakland County will fall
$1,232,029 short of a fifty percent (50%) match of our Child Care Fund Budget
(as of August, 13'35);
NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the County of Oakland urges the
adoption of a supplemental appropriation of $1,400,000 to allow a distribution
of a full fifty percent (50%) match of County expenditures for child care.
