RE: ESTABLISHMENT OF A SPECIAL STUDY COMMITTEE ON COUNTY
ORGANIZATION
TO THE OAKLAND COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS
11 MR. CHAIRMAN, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN:

overdue; and
WHEREAS, the Citizens Research Council of Michigan has completed a study of
the organization of Wayne County and has recommended sweeping reform measures; and
WHEREAS, many of the recommendations in the Citizens Research Council
report would apply equal Y to Oakland County.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Chairman of the Oakland County
Board of Commissioners appoint a special Committee, in accordance with rule 8B, to
review the organizational structure of the County of Oakland and to recommend reform
H measures to Board of Commissioners.
Mr. Chairman I move the adoption of the foregoing resolution.
./." James M. Brennan
