MISC. RES. 6750
BY: MARY DEARBORN, Commissioner District #22
RE: PERMANENT ALLOCATION OF MILLAGE
TO THE OAKLAND COUNTY BOARD OF COMMESSIONERS
Mr. Chairman, Ladies & Gentlemen:
WHEREAS, the Allocation Board has under consideration the permanent allocation
of millage; and
WHEREAS, the proposal for milk:19e allocation adopted by the Oakland County
Board of Commissioners has been declared illegal and the Board has not yet presented
an acceptable proposal; and
WHEREAS, two proposals have been submitted to the Tax Allocation Board for
consideration: one for 15.25 milk submitted by Mr. Schimmel; one for 16.40 mills
submitted by Mr. Reid; and
WHEREAS, a proposal for a permanent millage must offer a single, uniform millage
for townships and also for schools; and
WHEREAS, a uniform mil loge would be fair and just (not to mention constitutional)
as compared with the unfair (and no doubt unconstitutional) present practice of variance:and
WHEREAS, the County should move with firmness and decision toward our often
stated objective of obtaining a fixed millage for Oakland County, a matter too many years
overdue and still unresolved.
THEREFORE MOVE that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners support one of
the proposals offered to the Allocation Board o
which hopefully will be both fair and legal.
Mr. Chairman, I would personally recom
immediately offer its own proposal, one
end support for the proposal offered by
Mr. Schimmel, and I move this resolution be referred to the Finance Committee for its
immediate consideration and report back to this Board at its next meeting.
would also like to serve notice of intent to move to suspend the rules to consider
this resolution at the next meeting if it is not on the Agenda.
