RE: OPPOSITION TO TAXPAYERS OF STATE OF MICHIGAN PAYING FOR
CITY OF DETROIT SCHOOL BUSES
BY: DANA F. WILSON, District 11 9

MR, CHAIRMAN, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN:
WHEREAS, the United States District Court has ordered the State of Michigan to pay
for school buses for the purpose of integrating the school system of the City of Detroit; and
WHEREAS, it is not an obligation of the taxpayers of the State of Michigan to provide
such school buses, but rather an obligation of the Detroit School Board; and
WHEREAS, this Board of Commissioners should support the position that it is not an
obligation of the taxpayers of the State of Michigan, but rather an obligation of the
particular school districts.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
opposes the requirement that the taxpayers of the State of Michigan purchase school buses
for the purpose of integrating the Detroit School District,
Mr. Chairman, I move the adoption of the foregoing resolution.
