Miscellaneous Resolution 8723 November 30, 1978
BY: PUBLIC SERVICES COMMITTEE - Henry William Hoot, Chairman
IN RE: Request to Extend Federal Supplement to CETA Participant Wage Limit
TO THE OAKLAND COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS:
Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS the Oakland County Board of Comissioners by Miscellaneous
Resolution #6546 applied for and was granted the designation as Prime Sponsor
by the U.S. Department of Labor to administer the provisions of the Comprehen-
sive Employment and Training Act of 1973; and
WHEREAS the new CETA legislation allows a maximum wage payment of
$10,000 to $12,000 dependent upon wage index for participants, however,
Section 609 allows a waiver where the standard metropolitan statistical area
(SMSA) average wage is at least 125% of the national average wage; and
WHEREAS the Detroit SMSA average wage is 128% of the national average
and Oakland County as Prime Sponsor is a part of the Detroit SMSA; and
WHEREAS the new CETA legislation provides for an increase of 20% in
the federally supported CETA maximum wage to a limit of $14,400 ($12,000 +
20%).
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of Commis-
sioners request that the Department of Labor allow Oakland County to extend
its federally supported wages by 20% as provided in Section 609 of the
Comprehensive Employment and Training Act of 1978.
