BY: GENERAL GOVERNMENT COMMITTEE-John E. Olsen, Chairperson
RE: OPPOSITION TO SENATE BILL 459-INCREASING NOTARY PUBLIC
FEES AND SURETY BOND AMOUNT
TO THE OAKLAND COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS
Mr. Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS, Senate Bill 459 would increase the initial application fee for a
notary public from $3 to $5; and
WHEREAS, this proposed legislation would increase the surety bond requirement
for a notary from the present $1,000 to $10,000 before the person can perform notary
s ervices; and
WHEREAS, Senate Bill 459 also requires a newly certified notary public to
pay the county clerk $2 instead of the present $1 for services rendered in connection
with being commissioned a notary but with none of this increase earmarked for the
county general fund
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that since justification of increases pre-
scribed in Senate Bill 459 is questionable, the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
takes a position opposing this bill.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that copies of this resolution be sent to all legislators
representing Oakland County and to the county's legislative agent.
Mr. Chairperson, on behalf of the General Government Committee, I move
the adoption of the foregoing resolution.
