AUBURN HILLS WATER SUPPLY SYSTEM EXTENSION NO. 3 CONTRACT
THIS CONTRACT, made and entered into as of the
first day of January, 1987 by and between the COUNTY OF
OAKLAND, a county corporation in the State of Michigan
(hereinafter sometimes referred to as the "County"), by and
through its Drain Commissioner, County Agency, party of the
first part, and the CITY OF AUBURN HILLS, a city located in
the County (hereinafter sometimes referred to as the
"City"), party of the second part.
WITNESSET H:
WHEREAS, the County heretofore has established and
constructed and acquired the Pontiac Township Water Supply
System pursuant to the provisions of Act No. 185, Public
Acts of Michigan, 1957, as amended, and pursuant to the
WATER SUPPLY SYSTEM CONTRACT BETWEEN OAKLAND COUNTY AND
PONTIAC TOWNSHIP, dated February 15, 1965; and
WHEREAS, the Pontiac Township Water Supply System
is now known as the Auburn Hills Water Supply System and it
is necessary to improve, enlarge and extend the Auburn Hills
Water Supply System by the acquisition and construction of
the hereinafter described water supply facilities; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to Act No. 342, Public Acts of
Michigan, 1939, as amended (hereinafter sometimes referred
to as "Act 342"), the Board of Commissioners of the County,
by majority vote of its members-elect, has authorized and
directed that there be established a County system of water
supply improvements and services to serve the City, said
system to be known as the "Auburn Hills Water Supply System
Extension No. 3" (hereinafter sometimes referred to as the
"County System" or as the "System"), and has designated the
Oakland County Drain Commissioner as the County Agency for
the System with all powers and duties with respect thereto
as are provided by Act 342 (said Drain Commissioner being
hereinafter sometimes referred to as the "County Agency");
and
WHEREAS, under and subject to the terms of Act 342,
the County is authorized, through the County Agency, to
acquire and construct the water supply facilities herein-
after described as constituting the County System, the
County and the City are authorized to enter into a contract
for the acquisition and construction of the System by the
County and for financing all or part of the cost thereof by
the issuance of bonds by the County secured by the pledge of
the full faith and credit of the City to pay such cost with
interest to the County in installments extending over a
period not exceeding forty (40) years and the County is
authorized to issue such bonds and to pledge its full faith
and credit for the payment of such bonds and the interest
thereon; and
WHEREAS, there is an urgent need for such water
supply facilities to provide water to areas of the City not
presently served by the Auburn Hills Water Supply System and
thus to promote the health and welfare of the residents
thereof, which facilities would likewise benefit the County
and its residents, and the parties hereto have concluded
that such facilities can be provided and financed most
economically and efficiently by the County through the exer-
-2-
else of the powers conferred by Act 342, and especia
Sections 5a, 5b and 5c thereof; and
WHEREAS, preliminary plans for the System and
estimates of the cost and the period of usefulness of the
System have been prepared by Orchard, Hiltz & McCliment,
Inc. (hereinafter sometimes referred to as the consulting
engineers) and have been submitted to and approved by the
Board of Commissioners of the County and the Council of the
city and placed on file in the office of the County Agency,
said estimates being set forth in Exhibit B hereunto
attached; and
WHEREAS, in order to provide for the acquisition
and construction of the System by the County and the finan-
cing of the cost thereof by the issuance of County bonds,
and for other related matters, it is necessary for the
parties hereto to enter into this contract.
THEREFORE, IN CONSIDERATION OF THE PREMISES AND THE
COVENANTS OF EACH OTHER, THE PARTIES HERETO AGREE AS
FOLLOWS:
I. The parties hereto hereby approve and agree to
the establishment, acquisition, construction and financing
of the Auburn Hills Water Supply System Extension No. 3, as
herein provided, under and pursuant to Act 342. The City,
by way of compliance with Section 29, Article VII, Michigan
Constitution of 1963, consents and agrees to the establish-
ment and location of the System within its corporate
boundaries and to the use by the County of its streets,
highways, alleys, lands, rights-of-way or other public
-3-
places for the purpose and facilities of the System and any
improvements, enlargements and extensions thereof, and the
City further agrees that, in order to evidence and effectu-
ate the foregoing agreement and consent, it will execute and
deliver to the County such grants of easement, right-of-way,
license, permit or consent as may be requested by the
County.
2. The Auburn Hills Water Supply System Extension
No. 3 shall consist of the water supply facilities shown and
described on Exhibit A which is hereunto attached and which
is hereby made a part hereof, and as are more particularly
set forth in the preliminary plans which have been prepared
and submitted by the consulting engineers which plans are on
file with the County Agency and are hereby approved and
adopted. The System shall be acquired and constructed
substantially in accordance with the said preliminary plans
and in accordance with final plans and specifications to be
prepared and submitted by the consulting engineers, but
variations therefrom which do not materially change the
location, capacity or overall design of the System, and
which do not require an increase in the total estimated cost
of the System, may be permitted on the authority of the
County Agency. Other variations or changes may be made if
approved by the County Agency and by resolution of the City
Council and if provisions required by paragraph 8 hereof are
made for payment or financing of any resulting increase in
the total estimated cost. The estimate of cost of the
System and the estimate of period of usefulness thereof as
set forth in Exhibit B are hereby approved and adopted.
-4-
3. The County Agency shall take or cause to be
taken all actions required or necessary, in accordance with
Act 342, to procure the issuance and sale of bonds by the
County, in one or more series, in whatever aggregate princi-
pal amount is necessary to defray that part of the total
cost of the County System which is in excess of funds avail-
able from other sources. Such bonds shall be issued in
anticipation of, and be payable primarily from, the payments
to be made by the City to the County as provided in this
contract and shall be secured secondarily, if so voted by
the Board of Commissioners of the County, by the pledge of
the full faith and credit of the County, and the said bonds
shall be payable in annual maturities the last of which
shall be not more than forty years from the date thereof.
4. The County Agency shall proceed to take
construction bids for the System and, subject to the sale
and delivery of said bonds, enter into construction
contracts with the lowest responsive and responsible bidder
or bidders, procure from the contractors all necessary and
proper bonds and insurance, cause the System to be
constructed within a reasonable time and do all other things
required by this contract and the laws of the State of
Michigan and the United States of America. All certificates
for required payments to contractors shall be approved by
the consulting engineers before presentation to the County
Agency and the latter shall be entitled to rely on such
approval in making payment.
The County agrees that it will secure, or cause to
be secured, and maintained during the period of construction
adequate property damage and public liability insurance
-5-
covering all facilities to be constructed pursuant to this
contract. All policies and memorandums of insurance shall
provide that the County and the City shall be insured
parties thereunder and shall contain a provision requiring
that the City be notified at least ten days prior to cancel-
lation thereof. One copy of each policy and memorandum of
insurance shall be filed with the City.
5. It is understood and agreed by the parties
hereto that the System is to serve the City and not the
individual property owners and users thereof, unless by
special arrangement between the County Agency and the City.
The responsibility of requiring connection to and use of the
System and/or providing such additional facilities as may be
needed shall be that of the City which shall cause to be
constructed and maintained, directly or through the County,
any such necessary additional facilities. The County shall
not be obligated to acquire or construct any facilities
other than those designated in paragraph 2 hereof.
6. The City shall pay to the County the total
cost of the System (less such funds as may become available
from other sources), which total cost for this purpose shall
include, in addition to the items of the nature set forth in
Exhibit B (represented by the principal amount of the bonds
to be issued by the County plus such funds as may become
available from other sources), all interest payable by the
County on said bonds and all paying agent fees and other
expenses and charges (including the County Agency's adminis-
trative expenses) which are payable on account of said bonds
(such fees, expenses and charges being herein called "bond
service charges"). Such payments shall be made to the
-6-
County in annual installments which shall be due and payable
at least thirty days prior to the day of the month specified
in the County bonds as the annual principal maturity date
thereof. Such an annual installment shall be so paid in
each year if any principal and/or non-capitalized interest
on said bonds falls due during the twelve-month period
beginning on such principal maturity date in said year, and
the amount of each installment so due and payable shall be
at least sufficient to pay all such principal and/or
interest thus falling due and all bond service charges then
due and payable. The County Agency, within thirty days
after delivery of the County bonds to the purchaser, shall
furnish the City Treasurer with a complete schedule of the
principal and interest maturities thereon, and the County
Agency, at least thirty days before each payment is due to
be made by the City, also shall advise the City Treasurer of
the amount payable to the County on such date. If the City
fails to make any payment to the County when due, the same
shall be subject to a penalty of 1% thereof for each month
or fraction thereof that such amount remains unpaid after
due. Failure of the County Agency to furnish the schedule
or give the notice as above required shall not excuse the
City from the obligation to make payment when due. Such
payments shall be made by the City when due whether or not
the System has then been completed or placed in operation.
In the event that additional County bonds shall be issued
under the authority of this contract to defray a part of the
cost of the System, the foregoing obligations shall apply to
such part of the cost and to said additional bonds insofar
as appropriate thereto.
-7-
7. The City may pay in advance any amount payable
to the County pursuant to this contract and in that event
shall be credited therefor on future-due amounts as may be
agreed by the parties hereto. The City also may pay in
advance any one or more installments or any part thereof (a)
by surrendering to the County any of said County bonds of
like principal amount or (b) by paying to the County in cash
the principal amount of any County bonds which are subject
to redemption prior to maturity plus all interest thereon to
the first date upon which such bonds may be called for
redemption and all applicable call premiums and bond service
charges, and in such event the County Agency shall call said
bonds for redemption at the earliest possible date. The
installments or parts thereof so prepaid shall be deemed to
be the installments or parts thereof falling due in the same
calendar year as the maturity dates of the bonds surrendered
or called for redemption and bonds so surrendered or
redeemed shall be cancelled.
8. In the event that it shall become necessary to
increase the estimated cost of the System as hereinbefore
stated, or if the actual cost of the system shall exceed the
estimated cost, whether as the result of variations or
changes permitted to be made in the approved plans or other-
wise, then (without execution of any further contract or
amendment of this contract) the City Council, by resolution
adopted within fifteen days after the receipt of construc-
tion bids, may direct that a portion of the System be
deleted sufficient to reduce the total cost to an amount
which shall not exceed the total estimated cost as herein-
before stated by more than 5%, provided that such deletion
shall not materially change the general scope, overall
-8-
design and purpose of the System, or in the absence of the
adoption of such a resolution the City shall pay or procure
the payment of the increase or excess in cash, or County
bonds in an increased or additional amount (upon adoption of
an authorizing resolution therefor by the Board of Commis-
sioners) shall be issued to defray such increased or excess
cost to the extent that funds therefor are not available
from other sources: Provided, however, that no such increase
or excess shall be approved and no such increased or
additional County bonds shall be authorized to be issued,
nor shall the County enter into any contract for acquisition
or construction of the System or any part thereof or incur
any obligation for or pay any item of cost therefor, where
the effect thereof would be to cause the total cost of the
System to exceed by more than 5% its total estimated cost as
hereinbefore stated, unless the City Council previously
shall have adopted a resolution approving such increase or
excess and agreeing that the same (or such part thereof as
is not available from other sources) shall be paid or its
payment procured by the City in cash or be defrayed by the
issuance of increased or additional County bonds in antici-
pation of increased or additional payments agreed to be made
by the City to the County in the manner hereinbefore
provided: Provided, further, that the adoption of such
resolution by the City Council shall not be required prior
to or as a condition precedent to the issuance of additional
bonds by the County if the County has previously issued or
contracted to sell bonds to pay all or part of the cost of
the System and the issuance of the additional bonds is
necessary (as determined by the County) to pay such
increased, additional or excess costs as are essential to
completion of the System according to the plans as last
-9-
approved prior to the time when the previous bonds were
issued or contracted to be sold.
9. In the event that the actual cost of the
System is less than the total estimated cost, then any
surplus available to the County from the sale of County
bonds, at the option of the City Council, shall be used to
improve, enlarge or extend the System, to apply upon future
payments due to the County, to redeem bonds or to purchase
bonds on the open market, provided that such surplus shall
be used to improve, enlarge or extend the System only if
authorized by the Board of Commissioners. Any such surplus,
for the purpose of improving, enlarging or extending the
System, may be supplemented by cash payments to be made by
the City, or such improvements, enlargments or extensions
may be financed entirely from such cash payments if author-
ized by the City Council. If such surplus is used to redeem
or purchase bonds, the same shall be cancelled, and the
payments thereafter required to be made by the City to the
County shall be reduced so as to reflect the resulting
saving of interest and the payment required to be made in
the calendar year of the stated maturity of said bonds shall
be reduced by the principal amount thereof.
10. Should the City fail for any reason to pay the
County at the times specified the amounts herein required to
be paid, the City hereby authorizes the State Treasurer or
other official charged with the disbursement of unrestricted
state funds returnable to the City pursuant to the Michigan
constitution to withhold sufficient funds to make up any
default or deficiency in funds. If the full faith and
credit of the County is pledged for the prompt payment of
-10-
the principal of and interest on the bonds to be issued by
the County and if the County is required to advance any
money by reason of such pledge on account of the delinquency
of the City, the County Treasurer is hereby authorized to
notify the State Treasurer to deduct the amount of money so
advanced by the County from any unrestricted moneys in the
State Treasurer's possession belonging to the City and to
pay such amount to the County.
The foregoing shall not operate to limit the
County's right to pursue any other legal remedies for the
reimbursement of moneys advanced on account of the default
of the City.
11. The City, pursuant to the authorization of
Section 5a of Act No. 342, hereby pledges its full faith and
credit for the prompt and timely payment of its obligations
expressed in this contract and each year shall levy a tax in
an amount which, taking into consideration estimated delin-
quencies in tax collections, will be sufficient to pay its
obligations under this contract becoming due before the time
of the following year's tax collections: Provided, however,
that if at the time of making its annual tax levy the city
shall have on hand in cash other funds (including but not
limited to funds from special assessments, user charges or
connection fees) which have been set aside and pledged or
are otherwise available for the payment of such contractual
obligations falling due prior to the time of the next tax
collection, then the annual tax levy may be reduced by such
amount. The City Council each year, at least 90 days prior
to the final date provided by law for the making of the
annual City tax levy, shall submit to the County Agency a
-11-
written statement setting forth the amount of its
obligations to the County which become due and payable under
this contract prior to the time of the next following year's
tax collections, the amount of the funds which the City has
or will have on hand or to its credit in the hands of the
County which have been set aside and pledged for payment of
said obligations to the County and the amount of the City
taxes next proposed to be levied for the purpose of raising
money to meet such obligations. The County Agency shall
review such statement promptly and, if he finds that the
proposed City tax levy is insufficient, he shall so notify
the City Council, and the City hereby covenants and agrees
that it thereupon will increase its levy to such extent as
may be required by the County Agency.
12. No change in the jurisdiction over any terri-
tory in the City shall impair in any manner the obligations
of this contract or affect the obligations of the City here-
under. In the event that all or any part of the territory
of the City is incorporated as a new city or village or is
annexed to or becomes a part of the territory of another
municipality, the municipality into which such territory is
incorporated or to which such territory is annexed shall
assume the proper proportionate share of the contractual
obligations (including the pledge of full faith and credit)
of the City, which proper proportionate share shall be fixed
and determined by the County Agency and shall be binding
upon all parties concerned unless, within sixty (60) days
after such incorporation or annexation becomes effective,
the governing body of the municipality into which such
territory is incorporated or to which such territory is
annexed and the City Council of the City, by mutual agree-
-12-
ment and with the written approval of the County Agency,
shall fix and determine such proper proportionate share.
The County Agency, prior to making such determination, shall
receive a written recommendation as to the proper propor-
tionate share from a committee composed of one representa-
tive designated by the City Council of the City, one desig-
nated by the governing body of the new municipality or the
municipality annexing such territory and one independent
registered engineer appointed by the County Agency. Each
governmental unit shall appoint its representative within
fifteen (15) days after being notified to do so by the
County Agency and within a like time the County Agency shall
appoint the engineer third member. If any such representa-
tive (other than the appointee of the County Agency) is not
appointed within the time above provided, then the County
Agency may proceed without said recommendation. If the
committee shall not make the recommendation within forty-
five (45) days after its appointment or within any extension
thereof by the County Agency, then the County Agency may
proceed without such recommendation.
13. This contract is contingent upon the county
issuing its bonds to defray such part of the total estimated
cost of the System as is necessary to be financed, which
bonds shall be issued under the authorization provided in
Sections 5a, 5b and Sc of Act 342. Interest on the bonds
may be capitalized and paid from the bond proceeds for a
period not exceeding the estimated construction period and
one year thereafter. In the event that the bonds are not
issued within three years from the date of this contract,
then unless this contract is extended by mutual agreement it
shall become null and void, except that the City shall pay
-13-
all engineering, legal and other costs and expenses thereto-
fore incurred and shall be entitled to all plans, specifica-
tions and other engineering data and materials.
14. Upon completion of the System the County
hereby leases the same to the City to operate and maintain
the same upon the following terms and conditions:
The System shall be used only to
serve area in the City unless the
area to be served thereby is
enlarged by agreement between the
City and the County Agency.
(b) The City shall maintain the System
in good condition and repair and
shall employ and supervise qualified
and competent employees therefor.
(c) The City shall make and collect from
the individual users of the System
such charges for water supply
services as shall be sufficient at
least to pay the cost of operating
and maintaining the System and to
establish a fund for replacements,
improvements and major maintenance
of the System. In addition, the
City may make and collect such
charges to individual users as shall
be necessary to pay the operating
costs of the City and to provide
such other funds for water supply
purposes as are deemed desirable.
The City shall enforce prompt pay-
ment of all such charges as the same
shall become due, and the receipts
from such charges shall be deposited
in a separate account or enterprise
fund to be established and main-
tained by the City.
(d) The City shall establish such
charges as specified in paragraph
(c) to be paid to the City quarterly
or more often commencing with the
first day of the calendar quarter in
which the System is put into opera-
tion.
The City hereby accepts the lease of the System upon the
terms and conditions herein set forth.
(a)
-14-
It is further agreed with respect to the System
that at all times during the operation thereof by the City,
as lessee, the City will obtain and maintain in effect
adequate property damage, public liability and workmen's
compensation insurance covering all facilities leased to the
City under any contract with the County now or hereafter in
effect. All policies and memorandums of insurance shall
provide that the County and the City shall be insured
parties thereunder and shall contain a provision requiring
that the County be notified at least ten days prior to
cancellation thereof. One copy of each policy and memor-
andum of insurance shall be filed with the County Agency.
The City agrees that it will operate the System to
serve all premises located within the Auburn Hills Water
Supply System Extension No. 3 District shown on Exhibit A.
All of such premises shall be served on an equal and ratable
basis and no preference shall be given to one area of the
District over any other area of the District. The City
covenants and agrees to operate the System in a manner which
will not affect adversely the exemption of the interest on
the County bonds from federal income taxation.
15. The County shall have no obligation or respon-
sibility for providing water supply facilities except as
herein expressly provided with respect to the acquisition of
the System or as otherwise provided by contract. The City
shall have the authority and the responsibility to provide
such other facilities and shall have the right to expand the
facilities of the System by constructing or extending water
lines or related facilities, connecting the same to the
System and otherwise improving the System. It is expressly
-15-
agreed, nevertheless, that no such connection (other than
individual unit connections) shall be made to the System and
no improvements, enlargements or extensions thereof shall be
made without first securing a permit therefor from the
County Agency. Any such permit may be made conditional upon
inspection and approval of new construction by the County
Agency.
16. All powers, duties and functions vested by
this contract in the County shall be exercised and performed
by the County Agency for and on behalf of the County unless
otherwise provided by law or in this contract.
17. The parties hereto recognize that the holders
from time to time of the bonds to be issued by the County
under the provisions of Act 342, and secured by the full
faith and credit pledge of the City to the making of its
payments as set forth in this contract, will have contrac-
tual rights in this contract, and it is therefore covenanted
and agreed that so long as any of said bonds shall remain
outstanding and unpaid, the provisions of this contract
shall not be subject to any alteration or revision which
would in any manner adversely affect either the security of
the bonds or the prompt payment of principal or interest
thereon. The right to make changes in this contract, by
amendment, supplemental contracts or otherwise, is neverthe-
less reserved insofar as the same do not have such adverse
effect. The parties hereto further covenant and agree that
they each will comply with their respective duties and
obligations under the terms of this contract promptly, at
the times and in the manner herein set forth, and will not
suffer to be done any act which would in any way impair the
-16-
contract of said bonds, the security therefor or the prompt
payment of principal and interest thereon. It is hereby
declared that the terms of this contract and of any amenda-
tory or supplemental contract and any contract entered into
pursuant hereto, insofar as they pertain to said bonds or to
the payment or the security thereof, shall be deemed to be
for the benefit of the holders of said bonds.
18. In the event that any one or more of the
provisions of this contract shall for any reason be held to
be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such
invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect
any other provisions hereof, but this contract shall be
construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable
provision had never been contained herein.
19. This contract shall become effective upon its
execution by each party hereto and the expiration of 45 days
after the date of publication of the notice required by
Section 5b of Act 342: Provided, however, that if, within
the 45-day period, a proper petition is filed with the City
Clerk of the City in accordance with the provisions of said
Section 5b of Act 342 then this contract shall not become
effective until approved by the vote of a majority of the
electors of the City qualified to vote and voting thereon at
a general or special election. This contract shall termin-
ate forty (40) years from the date hereof or on such earlier
date as shall be mutually agreed: Provided, however, that
it shall not be terminated at any time prior to the payment
in full of the principal of and interest on the County bonds
together with all bond service charges pertaining to said
bonds. This contract may be executed in several counter-
-17-
parts. The provisions of this contract shall inure to the
benefit of and be binding upon the successors and assigns of
the parties hereto.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused
this contract to be executed and delivered by the under-
signed, being duly authorized by the respective governing
bodies of such parties, all as of the day and year first
above written.

CLINTON-OAKLAND SEWAGE DISPOSAL SYSTEM
AUBURN HILLS EXTENSION NO. 2 CONTRACT
THIS CONTRACT, made and entered into as of the
first day of January, 1987 by and between the COUNTY OF
OAKLAND, a county corporation in the State of Michigan
(hereinafter sometimes referred to as the "County"), by and
through its Drain Commissioner, County Agency, party of the
first part, and the CITY OF AUBURN HILLS, a city located in
the County (hereinafter sometimes referred to as the
"City"), party of the second part.
WITNESSET H:
WHEREAS, the County heretofore has established and
constructed and acquired the Clinton-Oakland Sewage Disposal
System pursuant to the provisions of Act No. 185, Public
Acts of Michigan, 1957, as amended, to serve the Clinton-
Oakland Sewage Disposal District, within which district lies
part of the City; and
WHEREAS, it is necessary to improve, enlarge and
extend the Clinton-Oakland Sewage Disposal System by the
acquisition and construction of the hereinafter described
sewage disposal facilities to serve the City; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to Act No. 342, Public Acts of
Michigan, 1939, as amended (hereinafter sometimes referred
to as "Act 342"), the Board of Commissioners of the County,
by majority vote of its members-elect, has authorized and
directed that there be established a County system of sewage
disposal improvements and services to serve the City, said
system to be known as the "Clinton-Oakland Sewage Disposal
System Auburn Hills Extension No 2" (hereinafter sometimes
referred to as the "County System" or as the "System"), and
has designated the Oakland County Drain Commissioner as the
County Agency for the System with all powers and duties with
respect thereto as are provided by Act 342 (said Drain
Commissioner being hereinafter sometimes referred to as the
"County Agency"); and
WHEREAS, under and subject to the terms of Act 342,
the County is authorized, through the County Agency, to
acquire and construct the sewage disposal facilities
hereinafter described as constituting the County System, the
County and the City are authorized to enter into a contract
for the acquisition and construction of the System by the
County and for financing all or part of the cost thereof by
the issuance of bonds by the County secured by the pledge of
the full faith and credit of the City to pay such cost with
interest to the County in installments extending over a
period not exceeding forty (40) years and the County is
authorized to issue such bonds and to pledge its full faith
and credit for the payment of such bonds and the interest
thereon; and
WHEREAS, there is an urgent need for such sewage
disposal facilities to provide sewage disposal services to
areas of the City not presently served by sewage disposal
facilities and thus to promote the health and welfare of the
residents thereof, which facilities would likewise benefit
the County and its residents, and the parties hereto have
concluded that such facilities can be provided and financed
-2-
most economically and efficiently by the County through the
exercise of the powers conferred by Act 342, and especially
Sections 5a, 5b and 5c thereof; and
WHEREAS, preliminary plans for the System and
estimates of the cost and the period of usefulness of the
System have been prepared by Orchard, Hiltz & McCliment,
Inc. (hereinafter sometimes referred to as the consulting
engineers) and have been submitted to and approved by the
Board of Commissioners of the County and the Council of the
City and placed on file in the office of the County Agency,
said estimates being set forth in Exhibit B hereunto
attached; and
WHEREAS, in order to provide for the acquisition
and construction of the System by the County and the finan-
cing of the cost thereof by the issuance of County bonds,
and for other related matters, it is necessary for the
parties hereto to enter into this contract.
THEREFORE, IN CONSIDERATION OF THE PREMISES AND THE
COVENANTS OF EACH OTHER, THE PARTIES HERETO AGREE AS
FOLLOWS:
1. The parties hereto hereby approve and agree to
the establishment, acquisition, construction and financing
of the Clinton-Oakland Sewage Disposal System Auburn Hills
Extension No 2, as herein provided, under and pursuant to
Act 342. The City, by way of compliance with Section 29,
Article VII, Michigan Constitution of 1963, consents and
agrees to the establishment and location of the System
within its corporate boundaries and to the use by the County
-3-
of its streets, highways, alleys, lands, rights-of-way or
other public places for the purpose and facilities of the
System and any improvements, enlargements and extensions
thereof, and the City further agrees that, in order to
evidence and effectuate the foregoing agreement and consent,
it will execute and deliver to the County such grants of
easement, right -of -way, license, permit or consent as may be
requested by the County.
2. The Clinton-Oakland Sewage Disposal System
Auburn Hills Extension No. 2 shall consist of the sewage
disposal facilities shown and described on Exhibit A which
is hereunto attached and which is hereby made a part hereof,
and as are more particularly set forth in the preliminary
plans which have been prepared and submitted by the
consulting engineers which plans are on file with the County
Agency and are hereby approved and adopted. The System
shall be acquired and constructed substantially in
accordance with the said preliminary plans and in accordance
with final plans and specifications to be prepared and
submitted by the consulting engineers, but variations
therefrom which do not materially change the location,
capacity or overall design of the System, and which do not
require an increase in the total estimated cost of the
System, may be permitted on the authority of the County
Agency. Other variations or changes may be made if approved
by the County Agency and by resolution of the City Council
and if provisions required by paragraph 8 hereof are made
for payment or financing of any resulting increase in the
total estimated cost. The estimate of cost of the System
and the estimate of period of usefulness thereof as set
forth in Exhibit B are hereby approved and adopted.
-4-
3. The County Agency shall take or cause to be
taken all actions required or necessary, in accordance with
Act 342, to procure the issuance and sale of bonds by the
County, in one or more series, in whatever aggregate princi-
pal amount is necessary to defray that part of the total
cost of the County System which is in excess of funds avail-
able from other sources. Such bonds shall be issued in
anticipation of, and be payable primarily from, the payments
to be made by the City to the County as provided in this
contract and shall be secured secondarily, if so voted by
the Board of Commissioners of the County, by the pledge of
the full faith and credit of the County, and the said bonds
shall be payable in annual maturities the last of which
shall be not more than forty years from the date thereof.
4. The County Agency shall proceed to take
construction bids for the System and, subject to the sale
and delivery of said bonds, enter into construction
contracts with the lowest responsive and responsible bidder
or bidders, procure from the contractors all necessary and
proper bonds and insurance, cause the System to be
constructed within a reasonable time and do all other things
required by this contract and the laws of the State of
Michigan and the United States of America. All certificates
for required payments to contractors shall be approved by
the consulting engineers before presentation to the County
Agency and the latter shall be entitled to rely on such
approval in making payment.
The County agrees that it will secure, or cause to
be secured, and maintained during the period of construction
adequate property damage and public liability insurance
-5-
covering all facilities to be constructed pursuant to this
contract. All policies and memorandums of insurance shall
provide that the County and the City shall be insured
parties thereunder and shall contain a provision requiring
that the City be notified at least ten days prior to cancel-
lation thereof. One copy of each policy and memorandum of
insurance shall be filed with the City.
5. It is understood and agreed by the parties
hereto that the System is to serve the City and not the
individual property owners and users thereof, unless by
special arrangement between the County Agency and the City.
The responsibility of requiring connection to and use of the
System and/or providing such additional facilities as may be
needed shall be that of the City which shall cause to be
constructed and maintained, directly or through the County,
any such necessary additional facilities. The County shall
not be obligated to acquire or construct any facilities
other than those designated in paragraph 2 hereof.
6. The City shall pay to the County the total
cost of the System (less such funds as may become available
from other sources), which total cost for this purpose shall
include, in addition to the items of the nature set forth in
Exhibit B (represented by the principal amount of the bonds
to be issued by the County plus such funds as may become
available from other sources), all interest payable by the
County on said bonds and all paying agent fees and other
expenses and charges (including the County Agency's adminis-
trative expenses) which are payable on account of said bonds
(such fees, expenses and charges being herein called "bond
service charges"). Such payments shall be made to the
-6-
County in annual installments which shall be due and payable
at least thirty days prior to the day of the month specified
in the County bonds as the annual principal maturity date
thereof. Such an annual installment shall be so paid in
each year if any principal and/or non-capitalized interest
on said bonds falls due during the twelve-month period
beginning on such principal maturity date in said year, and
the amount of each installment so due and payable shall be
at least sufficient to pay all such principal and/or
interest thus falling due and all bond service charges then
due and payable. The County Agency, within thirty days
after delivery of the County bonds to the purchaser, shall
furnish the City Treasurer with a complete schedule of the
principal and interest maturities thereon, and the County
Agency, at least thirty days before each payment is due to
be made by the City, also shall advise the City Treasurer of
the amount payable to the County on such date. If the City
fails to make any payment to the County when due, the same
shall be subject to a penalty of 1% thereof for each month
or fraction thereof that such amount remains unpaid after
due. Failure of the County Agency to furnish the schedule
or give the notice as above required shall not excuse the
City from the obligation to make payment when due. Such
payments shall be made by the City when due whether or not
the System has then been completed or placed in operation.
In the event that additional County bonds shall be issued
under the authority of this contract to defray a part of the
cost of the System, the foregoing obligations shall apply to
such part of the cost and to said additional bonds insofar
as appropriate thereto.
-7-
7. The City may pay in advance any amount payable
to the County pursuant to this contract and in that event
shall be credited therefor on future-due amounts as may be
agreed by the parties hereto. The City also may pay in
advance any one or more installments or any part thereof (a)
by surrendering to the County any of said County bonds of
like principal amount or (b) by paying to the County in cash
the principal amount of any County bonds which are subject
to redemption prior to maturity plus all interest thereon to
the first date upon which such bonds may be called for
redemption and all applicable call premiums and bond service
charges, and in such event the County Agency shall call said
bonds for redemption at the earliest possible date. The
installments or parts thereof so prepaid shall be deemed to
be the installments or parts thereof falling due in the same
calendar year as the maturity dates of the bonds surrendered
or called for redemption and bonds so surrendered or
redeemed shall be cancelled.
8. In the event that it shall become necessary to
increase the estimated cost of the System as hereinbefore
stated, or if the actual cost of the system shall exceed the
estimated cost, whether as the result of variations or
changes permitted to be made in the approved plans or other-
wise, then (without execution of any further contract or
amendment of this contract) the City Council, by resolution
adopted within fifteen days after the receipt of construc-
tion bids, may direct that a portion of the System be
deleted sufficient to reduce the total cost to an amount
which shall not exceed the total estimated cost as herein-
before stated by more than 5%, provided that such deletion
shall not materially change the general scope, overall
-8-
design and purpose of the System, or in the absence of the
adoption of such a resolution the City shall pay or procure
the payment of the increase or excess in cash, or County
bonds in an increased or additional amount (upon adoption of
an authorizing resolution therefor by the Board of Commis-
sioners) shall be issued to defray such increased or excess
cost to the extent that funds therefor are not available
from other sources: Provided, however, that no such increase
or excess shall be approved and no such increased or
additional County bonds shall be authorized to be issued,
nor shall the County enter into any contract for acquisition
or construction of the System or any part thereof or incur
any obligation for or pay any item of cost therefor, where
the effect thereof would be to cause the total cost of the
System to exceed by more than 5% its total estimated cost as
hereinbef ore stated, unless the City Council previously
shall have adopted a resolution approving such increase or
excess and agreeing that the same (or such part thereof as
is not available from other sources) shall be paid or its
payment procured by the City in cash or be defrayed by the
issuance of increased or additional County bonds in antici-
pation of increased or additional payments agreed to be made
by the City to the County in the manner hereinbef ore
provided: Provided, further, that the adoption of such
resolution by the City Council shall not be required prior
to or as a condition precedent to the issuance of additional
bonds by the County if the County has previously issued or
contracted to sell bonds to pay all or part of the cost of
the System and the issuance of the additional bonds is
necessary (as determined by the County) to pay such
increased, additional or excess costs as are essential to
completion of the System according to the plans as last
-9-
approved prior to the time when the previous bonds were
issued or contracted to be sold.
9. In the event that the actual cost of the
System is less than the total estimated cost, then any
surplus available to the County from the sale of County
bonds, at the option of the City Council, shall be used to
improve, enlarge or extend the System, to apply upon future
payments due to the County, to redeem bonds or to purchase
bonds on the open market, provided that such surplus shall
be used to improve, enlarge or extend the System only if
authorized by the Board of Commissioners. Any such surplus,
for the purpose of improving, enlarging or extending the
System, may be supplemented by cash payments to be made by
the City, or such improvements, enlargments or extensions
may be financed entirely from such cash payments if author-
ized by the City Council. If such surplus is used to redeem
or purchase bonds, the same shall be cancelled, and the
payments thereafter required to be made by the City to the
County shall be reduced so as to reflect the resulting
saving of interest and the payment required to be made in
the calendar year of the stated maturity of said bonds shall
be reduced by the principal amount thereof.
10. Should the City fail for any reason to pay the
County at the times specified the amounts herein required to
be paid, the City hereby authorizes the State Treasurer or
other official charged with the disbursement of unrestricted
state funds returnable to the City pursuant to the Michigan
constitution to withhold sufficient funds to make up any
default or deficiency in funds. If the full faith and
credit of the County is pledged for the prompt payment of
-10-
the principal of and interest on the bonds to be issued by
the County and if the County is required to advance any
money by reason of such pledge on account of the delinquency
of the City, the County Treasurer is hereby authorized to
notify the State Treasurer to deduct the amount of money so
advanced by the County from any unrestricted moneys in the
State Treasurer's possession belonging to the City and to
pay such amount to the County.
The foregoing shall not operate to limit the
County's right to pursue any other legal remedies for the
reimbursement of moneys advanced on account of the default
of the City.
11. The City, pursuant to the authorization of
Section 5a of Act No. 342, hereby pledges its full faith and
credit for the prompt and timely payment of its obligations
expressed in this contract and each year shall levy a tax in
an amount which, taking into consideration estimated delin-
quencies in tax collections, will be sufficient to pay its
obligations under this contract becoming due before the time
of the following year's tax collections: Provided, however,
that if at the time of making its annual tax levy the City
shall have on hand in cash other funds (including but not
limited to funds from special assessments, user charges or
connection fees) which have been set aside and pledged or
are otherwise available for the payment of such contractual
obligations falling due prior to the time of the next tax
collection, then the annual tax levy may be reduced by such
amount. The City Council each year, at least 90 days prior
to the final date provided by law for the making of the
annual City tax levy, shall submit to the County Agency a
-11-
written statement setting forth the amount of its
obligations to the County which become due and payable under
this contract prior to the time of the next following year's
tax collections, the amount of the funds which the City has
or will have on hand or to its credit in the hands of the
County which have been set aside and pledged for payment of
said obligations to the County and the amount of the City
taxes next proposed to be levied for the purpose of raising
money to meet such obligations. The County Agency shall
review such statement promptly and, if he finds that the
proposed City tax levy is insufficient, he shall so notify
the City Council, and the City hereby covenants and agrees
that it thereupon will increase its levy to such extent as
may be required by the County Agency.
12. No change in the jurisdiction over any terri-
tory in the City shall impair in any manner the obligations
of this contract or affect the obligations of the City here-
under. In the event that all or any part of the territory
of the City is incorporated as a new city or village or is
annexed to or becomes a part of the territory of another
municipality, the municipality into which such territory is
incorporated or to which such territory is annexed shall
assume the proper proportionate share of the contractual
obligations (including the pledge of full faith and credit)
of the City, which proper proportionate share shall be fixed
and determined by the County Agency and shall be binding
upon all parties concerned unless, within sixty (60) days
after such incorporation or annexation becomes effective,
the governing body of the municipality into which such
territory is incorporated or to which such territory is
annexed and the City Council of the City, by mutual agree-
-12-
ment and with the written approval of the County Agency,
shall fix and determine such proper proportionate share.
The County Agency, prior to making such determination, shall
receive a written recommendation as to the proper propor-
tionate share from a committee composed of one representa-
tive designated by the City Council of the City, one desig-
nated by the governing body of the new municipality or the
municipality annexing such territory and one independent
registered engineer appointed by the County Agency. Each
governmental unit shall appoint its representative within
fifteen (15) days after being notified to do so by the
County Agency and within a like time the County Agency shall
appoint the engineer third member. If any such representa-
tive (other than the appointee of the County Agency) is not
appointed within the time above provided, then the County
Agency may proceed without said recommendation. If the
committee shall not make the recommendation within forty-
five (45) days after its appointment or within any extension
thereof by the County Agency, then the county Agency may
proceed without such recommendation.
13. This contract is contingent upon the County
issuing its bonds to defray such part of the total estimated
cost of the System as is necessary to be financed, which
bonds shall be issued under the authorization provided in
Sections 5a, 5b and Sc of Act 342. Interest on the bonds
may be capitalized and paid from the bond proceeds for a
period not exceeding the estimated construction period and
one year thereafter. In the event that the bonds are not
issued within three years from the date of this contract,
then unless this contract is extended by mutual agreement it
shall become null and void, except that the City shall pay
-13-
all engineering, legal and other costs and expenses thereto-
fore incurred and shall be entitled to all plans, specifica-
tions and other engineering data and materials.
14. Upon completion of the System the County
hereby leases the same to the City to operate and maintain
the same upon the following terms and conditions:
(a) The System shall be used only to
serve area in the City unless the
area to be served thereby is
enlarged by agreement between the
City and the County Agency.
(b) The City shall maintain the System
in good condition and repair and
shall employ and supervise qualified
and competent employees therefor.
(c) The City shall not permit the
discharge into the System of any
sewage in violation of the standards
and regulations controlling the
discharge of industrial and
commercial type waste into the
System as said standards and
regulations may be promulgated from
time to time by the County.
(d) The City shall make and collect from
the individual users of the System
such charges for sewage disposal
services as shall be sufficient at
least to pay the cost of operating
and maintaining the System and to
establish a fund for replacements,
improvements and major maintenance
of the System. In addition, the
City may make and collect such
charges to individual users as shall
be necessary to pay the operating
costs of the City and to provide
such other funds for sewage disposal
purposes as are deemed desirable.
The City shall enforce prompt pay-
ment of all such charges as the same
shall become due, and the receipts
from such charges shall be deposited
in a separate account or enterprise
fund to be established and main-
tained by the City.
(e) The City shall establish such
charges as specified in paragraph
(d) to be paid to the City quarterly
-14-
or more often commencing with the
first day of the calendar quarter in
which the System is put into opera-
tion.
(f) The City at all times shall operate,
maintain and use the System in such
manner as to comply fully and com-
pletely with the requirements of the
Amended Clinton-Oakland Sewage
Disposal System Contract, dated
January 11, 1968.
The City hereby accepts the lease of the System upon the
terms and conditions herein set forth.
It is further agreed with respect to the System
that at all times during the operation thereof by the City,
as lessee, the City will obtain and maintain in effect
adequate property damage, public liability and workmen's
compensation insurance covering all facilities leased to the
City under any contract with the County now or hereafter in
effect. All policies and memorandums of insurance shall
provide that the County and the City shall be insured
parties thereunder and shall contain a provision requiring
that the County be notified at least ten days prior to
cancellation thereof. One copy of each policy and memor-
andum of insurance shall be filed with the County Agency.
The City agrees that it will operate the System to
serve all premises located within the Clinton-Oakland Sewage
Disposal System Auburn Hills Extension No. 2 District shown
on Exhibit A. All of such premises shall be served on an
equal and ratable basis and no preference shall be given to
one area of the District over any other area of the
District. The City covenants and agrees to operate the
System in a manner which will not affect adversely the
exemption of the interest on the County bonds from federal
income taxation.
-15-
15. The County shall have no obligation or respon-
sibility for providing sewage disposal facilities except as
herein expressly provided with respect to the acquisition of
the System or as otherwise provided by contract. The City
shall have the authority and the responsibility to provide
such other facilities and shall have the right to expand the
facilities of the System by constructing or extending sewers
or related facilities, connecting the same to the System and
otherwise improving the System. It is expressly agreed,
nevertheless, that no such connection (other than individual
unit tap-ins) shall be made to the System and no
improvements, enlargements or extensions thereof shall be
made without first securing a permit therefor from the
County Agency. Any such permit may be made conditional upon
inspection and approval of new construction by the County
Agency. It is further agreed that the System shall be used
for collection and conveyance of sanitary sewage only and
that the City shall take all action necessary to prevent
entry into the System of storm waters and also to prevent
entry of sewage or wastes of such a character as to be
injurious to the System or to the public health and safety.
16. All powers, duties and functions vested by
this contract in the County shall be exercised and performed
by the County Agency for and on behalf of the County unless
otherwise provided by law or in this contract.
17. The parties hereto recognize that the holders
from time to time of the bonds to be issued by the County
under the provisions of Act 342, and secured by the full
faith and credit pledge of the City to the making of its
payments as set forth in this contract, will have contrac-
-16-
tual rights in this contract, and it is therefore covenanted
and agreed that so long as any of said bonds shall remain
outstanding and unpaid, the provisions of this contract
shall not be subject to any alteration or revision which
would in any manner adversely affect either the security of
the bonds or the prompt payment of principal or interest
thereon. The right to make changes in this contract, by
amendment, supplemental contracts or otherwise, is neverthe-
less reserved insofar as the same do not have such adverse
effect. The parties hereto further covenant and agree that
they each will comply with their respective duties and
obligations under the terms of this contract promptly, at
the times and in the manner herein set forth, and will not
suffer to be done any act which would in any way impair the
contract of said bonds, the security therefor or the prompt
payment of principal and interest thereon. It is hereby
declared that the terms of this contract and of any amenda-
tory or supplemental contract and any contract entered into
pursuant hereto, insofar as they pertain to said bonds or to
the payment or the security thereof, shall be deemed to be
for the benefit of the holders of said bonds.
18. In the event that any one or more of the
provisions of this contract for any reason shall be held to
be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such
invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect
any other provisions hereof, but this contract shall be
construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable
provision had never been contained herein.
-17-
19. This contract shall become effective upon its
execution by each party hereto and the expiration of 45 days
after the date of publication of the notice required by
Section 5b of Act 342: Provided, however, that if, within
the 45-day period, a proper petition is filed with the City
Clerk of the City in accordance with the provisions of said
Section 5b of Act 342 then this contract shall not become
effective until approved by the vote of a majority of the
electors of the City qualified to vote and voting thereon at
a general or special election. This contract shall termin-
ate forty (40) years from the date hereof or on such earlier
date as shall be mutually agreed: Provided, however, that
it shall not be terminated at any time prior to the payment
in full of the principal of and interest on the County bonds
together with all bond service charges pertaining to said
bonds. This contract may be executed in several counter-
parts. The provisions of this contract shall inure to the
benefit of and be binding upon the successors and assigns of
the parties hereto.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused
this contract to be executed and delivered by the under-
signed, being duly authorized by the respective governing
bodies of such parties, all as of the day and year first
above written.
