IN RE: Restoration of Freeway Patrol by the State Police
TO THE OAKLAND COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS
MR. CHAIRPERSON, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN:
WHEREAS, Governor Milliken has suspended State Police road patrols along
suburban Oakland County expressways; and
WHEREAS, the presence of these patrols along the 1-75 corridor has been a
valuable and effective deterrent to curbing careless and speeding motorists and the
local police forces are not equipped with enough cars or officers to assume duties and
responsibilities of the expressway patrols; and
WHEREAS, this void left by the suspension of State Police patrols could result
in a serious threat to both life and property due to an increase in accidents caused by
careless motorists
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
demands that the Governor and state legislature immediately restore such freeway patrols by
the State Police,
MR, CHAIRPERSON, we move the adoption of the foregoing resolution.
