Miscellaneous Resolution # 861 71
BY: GENERAL GOVERNMENT COMMITTEE - John E. Olsen, Chairperson
IN RE: SUPPORT OF HOUSE BILL 53-53- WHICH LIFTS PRESENT RESTRICTIONS
ALLOWING ALTERNATE MEMBERS TO SIT ON THE BOARD OF ZONING
APPEALS
TO THE OAKLAND COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS
Mr. Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS, Public Act 207 regulating City and Village zoning allows alternate
members to be called to serve on a Zoning Board of Appeals only if a regular
member is absent from or unable to attend two or more consecutive meetings or
where a period of 30 days has elapsed; and
WHEREAS, HB 5353 deletes the requirements outlined above and permits
alternate members to be called to fill absences under any circumstances; and
WHEREAS, by lifting the present restrictions on calling alternates to serve,
the bill would increase the possibility that appeals are heard by a full board;
and
WHEREAS, having a full board hear appeals is extremely important because
a majority of votes of the full body is needed to approve an appeal.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of Commis-
,
sioners supports House Bill 53S-3 which has passed the House of Representatives
and awaits action in the Senate Committee on Local Government.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that copies of this resolution be sent to the
four State Senators from Oakland County and to the County's legislative agent.
Mr. Chairperson, on behalf of the General Government Committee, I move
the adoption of the foregoing resolution.
