Miscellaneous Resolution 6875 November 7, 1974
BY: PUBLIC WORKS COMMITTEE - Robert F. Patnales, Chairman
IN RE: ACQUISITION OF SMALL LAKE WEED HARVESTER
TO THE OAKLAND COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS
Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS the aquatic weed harvesting program initiated in Oakland County by
Board of Commissioner action in 1972 is proving ecologically effective, receiving nationwide
acclaim and is financially self-sustaining; and
Y'IHEREAS demand for the services available from the present single harvester exceeds
both available hours and, in many instances, the physical capability of the unit; and
WHEREAS an excellent, slightly used smaller harvester of the type recommended by
the department administering the program to best accommodate both these needs has been
located and is available;
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
authorize an expenditure not to exceed $16,000.00 to cover purchase of this Aquamarine
Corporation "Sawfish" harvester and associated trailer.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that current policy wherein the riparian owners most
immediately benefiting from this service made available by the County be responsible for all
operational expenses and reasonable amortization of equipment costs involved is reaffirmed.
The Public Works Committee, by Robert F. Patnales, Chairman, moves the adoption
of the foregoing resolution.
