BY: PERSONNEL PRACTICES COMMITTEE - Mary M. Dearborn, Chairman
IN RE: RECOMMEND APPROVAL TO SUBMIT APPLICATION FOR INFORMATION-
TRAINING PROJECT GRANT
TO THE OAKLAND COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS
Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS preliminary investigations have indicated that it is possible for the County
to receive a Federal grant under the Inter-governmental Personnel Act of 1970 for an Oakland
County Information, Orientation and Training Project which would utilize videotape equipment
to prepare audiovisual presentations such as videotapes, 16 mm. films, and slide presentations
directed toward making those within the County and the public aware of the operations and
functions of both the overall County Government and individual departments; and
WHEREAS the same equipment could be used to prepare training materials; and
WHEREAS the personnel involved would also maintain a library of County produced and
commercially available training and orientation materials; and
WHEREAS the grant would possibly have two one year extensions; and
WHEREAS the application for such a grant does not obligate the County to accept the
grant until such time as it is again brought before the Board of Commissioners and its
Committees on review; and
WHEREAS both the State agency which administers such grants and numerous other
County governments in the United States have expressed interest in this approach to information,
orientation and training;
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the County authorize the application for such
an IPA grant for a total first year project cost of $176,943; 75% of which would be granted from
the Federal government, 15% of which would be County "in-kind" contributions and 10% of
which would be cash.
The Personnel Practices Committee, by Mary M. Dearborn, Chairman, moves the
adoption of the foregoing resolution.
