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 of the System and the acquisition, con-
struction and financing of the Project as herein provided,
under and pursuant to Act 342. Each Municipality, by way of
compliance with Section 29, Article VII of the Michigan
Constitution of 1963, consents and agrees to the establish-
ment of the System and the location of the Project within
-3-
its corporate boundaries and to the use by the County of its
streets, highways, alleys, lands, rights-of-way or other
public places for the purpose and facilities of the System
and Project and any further improvements, enlargements and
extensions thereof, and each Municipality 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, per-
mit or consent as may be requested by the County.
(2) The Project shall consist of enlargements,
additions and improvements to the existing sewage treatment
facilities and sanitary sewers and related facilities of the
System as shown on Exhibit A which is attached hereto and
which is hereby made a .part hereof, and as are more par-
ticularly 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 Project shall be acquired and
constructed substantially in accordance with the 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 Project or of
the System; and which do not require an increase in the
total estimated cost of the Project, 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 resolu-
tion of the governing body of each Municipality and if pro-
Visions required by paragraph (8) hereof are made for
payment or financing of any resulting increase in the total
-4-
estimated cost. The estimate of cost of the Project and the
estimate of period of usefulness thereof as set forth in
Exhibit B are likewise hereby approved and adopted.
(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 prin-
cipal amount is necessary to be so financed to defray that
part of the total cost of the Project which is in excess of
funds available from other sources. Such bonds shall be
issued in anticipation of, and be payable primarily from,
the payments to be made by the Municipalities to the County
in the percentages as provided in Exhibit C which is
attached hereto and which is hereby made a part hereof, 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 Project and, subject to the sale
and delivery of said bonds, enter into construction con-
tracts with the lowest responsive and responsible bidder or
bidders, procure from the contractors all necessary and
proper bonds and insurance, cause the Project to be con-
structed as part of the System within a reasonable time, and
do all other things required by this Contract and the laws
of the State and the United States of America. All certifi-
cates for required payments to contractors shall be approved
-5-
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 hereby agrees that it will secure and
maintain, or cause to be secured and maintained, during the
period of construction adequate property damage and public
liability insurance covering all facilities to be con-
structed pursuant-to this Contract. All policies and memor-
andums of insurance shall provide that the County and the
Municipalities shall be insured parties thereunder and shall
contain a provision requiring that each Municipality be
notified at least ten days prior to cancellation thereof.
One copy of each policy and memorandum of insurance shall be
filed with each Municipality.
(5) It is understood and agreed by the parties
hereto that the System is to serve the Municipalities and
not the individual property owners and users thereof, unless
by special arrangement between the County Agency and the
governing body of the Municipality wherein such property is
located. The responsibility of requiring connection to and
use of the System •and/or providing such additional facili-
ties as may be needed shall be that—of the Municipality
wherein such property is located and such Municipality 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 here-
of.
(6) The Municipalities shall pay to the County
their respective shares of the total cost of the Project
(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
13 (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 administrative
expenses) which are payable on account of said bonds (such
fees, expenses and charges being herein called "bond service
charges"). The cost of the Project is hereby allocated to
the Municipalities in accordance with the percentages set
forth in Exhibit C on which are also shown the additional
capacities And population equivalents assigned to each of
the Municipalities for use of the System. Such payments of
each Municipality shall be made to the 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 of each Municipality shall be so paid
in each year if any principal and/or non-capitalized inter-
est on said bonds falls due during the twelve-month period
beginning on such principal maturity date in said veer, and
the amount of each installment of each Municipality so due
and payable shall be at least sufficient, when added to the
amount of the installments of the other Municipalities so
due and payable, to pay all such principal and/or interest
thus falling due and all bond service charges then due and
payable. The County Agency shall, within thirty days after
-7-
delivery of the County bonds to the purchaser, furnish the
Treasurer of each Municipality with a complete schedule of
the principal and interest maturities thereon, and the
County Agency shall also, at least thirty days before each
payment is due to be made by each Municipality, advise the
Treasurer of each Municipality of the amount payable to the
County on such date. If a Municipality 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 a Municipality from the
obligation to make payment when due. Such payments shall be
made by each Municipality when due whether or not the
Project 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 Project as part of the System, the foregoing obliga-
tions shall apply to such part of the cost and to said
additional bonds insofar as appropriate thereto.
(7) A Municipality may pay in advance any one or
more of its installments or any part thereof payable to the
County pursuant to this Contract (a) by surrendering to the
County any of said County bonds of like principal amount
maturing in the same calendar year, 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 plus all applicable call
premiums and bond service charges, and in such event the
-8-
County Agency shall call said bonds for redemption at the
earliest possible date; provided, however, that such advance
payment and credit therefor shall be limited in amount at
any given time to the amount of bonds available for purchase
or redemption by call within the twelve-month period
succeeding the date of the advance payment. 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 Project as hereinbef ore
stated, or if the actual cost of the Project 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 governing bodies of the
- Municipalities may, by resolution adopted within fifteen
days after the receipt of construction bids, direct that a
portion of the Project be deleted sufficient to reduce the
total cost to an amount which shall not exceed the total
estimated cost as hereinbefore stated by more than 5%, pro-
vided that such deletion shall not materially chance the
general scope, overall design and purpose of the Project or
of the System, or in the absence of the adoption of such
resolution the municipalities shall pay or procure the pay-
ment of the increase or excess in cash, or County bonds in
an increased or additional amount shall (upon adoption of an
authorizing resolution therefor by the Board. of
-9-
Commissioners of the County) 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 author-
ized to be issued, nor shall the County enter into any con-
tract for acquisition or construction of the Project 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 Project to exceed by more than 5% its
total estimated cost as hereinbefore stated, unless the
governing body of each Municipality shall have previously
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 Municipalities 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 Municipalities to the County in the manner herein-
,
before provided; provided, further, that the adoption of
such resolution by the governing body of each Municipality
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 Project 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 Project according to the
plans as last 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
Project 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 -governing bodies of the
Municipalities shall be used further 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 of the County, and provided further that
the amount of any surplus used to purchase or redeem bonds
shall be limited at any given time to the amount of bonds
available for purchase or redemption by call within the
twelve-month period succeeding the date the surplus funds
became available. Any such surplus may, for the purpose of
improving, enlarging or extending the System, be supple-
mented by cash payments to be made by the Municipalities, or
such improvements, enlargements or extensions may be
.financed entirely from such cash payments, where authorized
by the governing bodies of the Municipalities. Where any
such surplus is used to redeem or purchase bonds, the same
shall be cancelled, and the payments thereafter required to
be made by the Municipalities to the County shall be reduced
so as to reflect the resulting saving ofinterest and the
payment required to be made in the calendar year of the
stated maturity of said bonds shall be reduced by the prin-
cipal amount thereof.
(10) Should a Municipality fail for any reason to
pay the County at the times specified, the amounts herein
required to be paid, such Municipality does hereby authorize
-11-
the State Treasurer or other official charged with the dis-
bursement of unrestricted state funds returnable to such
Municipality pursuant to the Michigan Constitution to with-
hold 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 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 such Municipality,
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 such Municipality 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 such Municipality.
(11) Each Municipality, pursuant to the authoriza-
tion 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 delinquencies in tax collections, will be suffici-
ent 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, a Municipality shall have on hand in cash other
funds (including but not limited to funds from special
-12-
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 ability
of each Municipality to levy taxes is subject to
constitutional, statutory and charter limitations. The
governing body of each Municipality shall each year, at
least 90 days prior to the final date provided by law for
the making of the annual tax levy of the Municipality, sub-
mit to the County Agency a 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 Municipality 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 taxes of the Municipality 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 it finds that the proposed tax
levy is insufficient, it shall so notify the governing body
of the Municipality, and each Municipality hereby covenants
and aarees that it will• thereupon increase its levy to such
extent as may be required by the County Aaency.
(12) No change in the jurisdiction over any terri-
tory in any of the Municipalities shall in any manner impair
the obligations of this Contract or affect the obligations
of the Municipalities hereunder. In the event that all or
any part of the territory of any Municipality is incor-
-13-
porated 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 (includ-
ing the pledge of full faith and credit) of such
Municipality, which proper proportionate share shall be
fixed and determined by the County Agency and shall be bind-
ing 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 governing body of such Municipality shall by
mutual agreement and with the written approval of the County
Agency fix and determine such proper proportionate share.
The County Agency shall, prior to making such determination,
. .receive a written recommendation as to the proper propor-
tionate share from a committee composed of one representa-
tive .designated by the governing body of such Municipality,
one designated 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 represen-
tative 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
representative (other than the appointee of the County
Agency) is not appointed within the time above provided,
then the County Agency may proceed without said recommenda-
tion. If the committee shall not make the recommendation
within forty -five (45) days after its appointment or within
-14-
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 negotiable bonds, as herein provided, to defray
such part of the total estimated cost of the Project as is
necessary to be financed, which bonds shall be issued under
the authorization provided in Section 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 extended by mutual
agreement it shall become null and void, except that the
Municipalities shall pay, all engineering, legal and other
costs and expenses theretofore incurred in the percentages
set forth in Exhibit C and shall be entitled to all plans,
specifications and other engineering data and materials.
(14) Upon completion of the Project as part of the
System the County does hereby agree to operate and maintain
the same upon the following terms and conditions:
(a) The System shall be used only to
serve the District here-
tofore established by the Oakland
County Board of Commissioners unless
the area to be served thereby is
enlarged by agreement between the
Municipalities and the County.
(b) The County shall maintain the System
in good condition.
(c) Neither the County nor the
Municipalities shall permit the
discharge into the System of any
sewage in violation of the standards
-15-
and regulations controlling the
discharge of industrial and/or com-
mercial type waste into the System
as said standards and regulations
may be promulgated from time to time
by the Municipalities.
(d) The Municipalities shall charge the
individual users of the System for
sewage disposal services such
amounts 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. The County, as agent
for the Municipalities, shall col-
lect such charges. In addition, the
Municipalities may make, and the
County as their agent may collect,
such charges to individual users as
shall be necessary to pay the
operating and collection costs of
the County and to provide such other
funds for sewage disposal purposes
as are deemed desirable. The
County, as agent for the
Municipalities, shall enforce prompt
payment 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 maintained by the County.
The Municipalities shall establish
such charges as specified in para-
graph (d) to be paid to the County
quarterly or more often commencing
with the first day of the calendar
quarter in which the System is put
into operation. The Municipalities
may also establish charges for
sewage disposal services other than
as specified in paragraph (d).
(f) The County shall at all times oper-
maintain and_use the System and
the facilities thereof in such man-
ner as to comply fully and complete-
ly with the requirements of
applicable law.
It is further agreed with respect to the Project
and the System that at all times during the operation there-
of by the County that it will obtain and maintain in effect
(e)
-16--
adequate property damage, public liability and workmen's
compensation insurance covering all facilities maintained by
the County under any contract with the Municipalities now or
hereafter in effect. All policies and memorandums of insur-
ance shall provide that the County and the Municipalities
shall be insured parties thereunder and shall contain a
provision requiring that the Municipalities be notified at
least ten days prior to cancellation thereof. One copy of
each policy and memorandum of -insurance shall be filed with
each of the Municipalities.
(15) The County shall have no obligation or
responsibility for providing sewers or sewage disposal
facilities except as herein expressly provided with respect
to the acquisition of the Project or as otherwise provided
by contract. The Municipalities shall have the authority
and the responsibility to provide such other facilities and
shall have the right to expand the facilities of the Project
and 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 connection shall be made to facilities
of the County system or of this Project 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
Municipalities shall take all necessary action to prevent
entry into the System of storm waters and also to prevent
-17-
interest thereon. The right to make changes in this or
entry of sewage or wastes of such a character as to be
injurious to the System or to the public health and safety.
The Municipalities shall be responsible for removing any
infiltrations or inflow entering the System that is
determined to be effective for the Municipalities to remove
on the basis of facilities planning and sewer system
evaluation surveys conducted by the Consulting Engineers.
(16) All powers, duties and functions vested by
this Contract in the County, other than those relating to
the operation and maintenance of the System specified in

Project Section 4
Section 4 is interceptor relief facilities to be constructed by others
under a Federal Wastewater Construction grants project. The project
consists of a relief interceptor north of Eight Mile Road (Section 4a)
having a total non-grant cost of $3,804,000 and a relief interceptor
along Evergreen Road (Section 4b) having a total non-grant cost of
$3,206,000 (based on receipt of 55% Federal funding of eligible costs).
The cost shares for tributary communities is based in proportion to the
additional flow requirements of each community.
I hereby estimate the period of usefulness of this project to be forty
years and upwards. Cost estimates are based on ENR Cost Index of 4219
and do not include interest and financing costs.
