PUBLIC SERVICES COMMITTE
Miscellaneous Resolution April 17, 1975
EXPLANATORY NOTE
It is the County Executive's recommendation that the sum of S84,734
be distributed to those units of government whose population, according to
the 1970 census, were between 10,000 and 50,000. These units of government,
because of the nature of the Title VI allocation formula established by the
US. Department of Labor, received less than a fair share of the available
funds.
In order to partially remedy this .situation, it is reoc7 -- that
available forfeited funds be reallocated based on the 1--..'.77*r of•unemployed
(approximately. $4:75 per unemployed person) as estimated by the M.E.S.C.
for December, 1974.
In addition, the sum of $16,181 is recommended for the staffing of the
Oakland County Tourist and Convention Bureau of the North Oakland Chamber . of
Commerce. This allocation would provide for the hiring of an executive'
- director at an annual salary of $8,700 and one (1) secretary at an annual
salary of approximately $7,.400. The allocation would be for the time period
ending February 9, 1976 which coincides with the termination of the C.E.T.A.
-- Title VI program. .
The functions of the Tourist Bureau are outlined in the attached
correspondence from the North Oakland Chamber of Commerce.

Dear Mr—Chisholm:
As a follow-up to my letter of February 28, 1975, requesting participation in.
the C.E.T.A., Title 6, program, I would like to provide you with additional
information regarding the Oakland County Tourist and Convention Bureau.
Directed by its own board of directors, it will be operating solely to pull
together all Oakland County resources, package them, and present them to - --
interested, potential conventioneers and tourists. We feel it important to
emphasize that the establishment of this Bureau will benefit the total county.
By generating new tourist and convention business into our county, the Bureau
willbe indirectly providing new vehicles for employment and at the same time
capturing the tourist and convention dollar to benefit businesses county-wide.,
thereby enhancing their participation in payment of tax dollars back into our
local units of government.
We also feel the promotion of Oakland County as a total community, competing
for convention revenues, will generate new interest and economic expansion
into this county, hopefully creating new business and diversification so badly .
needed in this time of large unemployment.
It is imperative this program have the cooperation and support of all facets
of the community. We are pleased that other Oakland County Chambers have
expressed their support of this concept and are assisting us in conducting an
inventory of all our local assets.
I hope this additional information and the outlined objectives of this Bureau - -
will assist the county in providing the necessary funds to help this organization
accomplish its immediate and long-range goals.
