By Mr. Powell
IN RE: RETENTION OF LAW FIRM-DETERMINE RESPONSIBILITY RE: BUILDINGS
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS the marble on the buildings in Oakland County has
presented a serious problem, and has very costly implications
for correction; and
WHEREAS legal determinations specialized in the areas of
contract, warranty and tort are involved, as well as numerous
contributions by contractors and other personnel, relative to
design on behalf of the County;
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that a law firm, with such
expertise, be retained for the purpose of determining all
preliminary legal questions of whether there is identifiable
responsibility and liability; whether there is an available
remedy against one or all, and what things should be done on
advice of that counsel by the County and the departments in
charge of this problem, in preparation for litigation, if a
remedy is available.
Mr. Chairman, I move that the foregoing resolution be
referred to the appropriate Committee,
Christian F. Powell
County Commissioner, District #18
