To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS, city and township treasurers in Oakland County issue dog licenses and
tags from December 1 to March 1, in cooperation with the County Treasurer; and
WHEREAS, the cities and townships retain fifteen cents ($.15) from the sale of
each license; and
WHEREAS, ths sum does not adequately compensate the city and township treasurers
for the time and effort spent by their offices in issuing said licenses and the Oakland County
Treasurers Association has urged that they be allowed to retain fifty cents ($7.50) from the fee
for each license; and
WHEREAS, the Oakland County Treasurer supports that position of the local treasurers;
and
WHEREAS, Public Act 317 of the Public Acts of 1977 allows the Board of Commissioners

NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
does hereby set the amount to be retained by cities and townships for each dog license issued at
fifty cents ($.50), effective December 1, 1978.
MR. CHAIRMAN, I move the adoption of the foregoing resolution.
