BY: PERSONNEL PRACTICES COMMITTEE - Mr. Mainland
IN RE: OPPOSING MICHIGAN SUPREME COURT RULING RE:
CIRCUIT COURTS' CONTROL OVER THEIR OWN BUDGETS
TO THE OAKLAND COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS
Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen:
Your Committee, at its meeting held on October 14, 1971, adopted the following
resolution and herewith submits said resolution to this Board for its consideration and approval;
BE IT RESOLVED that the Board of Commissioners of the County of Oakland
objects to the decision rendered in the case of the Judges of the 3rd Judicial
Circuit of the State of Michigan vs. County of Wayne, the Board of Supervisors
of the County of Wayne, Board of Auditors of Wayne County, Treasurer of Wayne
County for it is an unwise encroachment on the powers of the legislative body in
that it denies that body the right to weigh priorities and needs of all other
departments and agencies of county government. Further, that the safeguards
against the demands of the judiciary by review by the Supreme Court Administrator
is inadequate and could result in taxes in excess of the Constitutional limit of
15 mills.
FURTHER, that copies of this resolution be forwarded to the Michigan
Supreme Court Administrator and members of the House and Senate representing
Oakland County and to the Michigan Association of Counties.
The Personnel Practices Committee, by William L. Mainland, Chairman, moves the
adoption of the foregoing resolution.
