A sufficient majority not having voted therefor, the amendment failed.
Moved by Serra supported by Pernick the following amendment to the 1992 Budget be made:
WHEREAS the Oakland County Executive has stated that the County must encourage
reinvestment in older urban communities; and many older cities in Oakland County have experienced
significant financial difficulties, budget cuts and reductions in State and Federal Assistance and
the Oakland County Board of Commissioners has previously considered the establishment of a revolving
fund to provide capital for infrastructure improvements and other public works projects in older
communities. Such a fund could be financed with bond sales, loans would be repaid by municipalities
and the ultimate cost to the County should be nothing. The Federal Government, through enactment of
the Transportation package, has recognized the validity of "public works' projects as a means of
providing employment and stimulating the economy and unemployment in Michigan remains at
unacceptably high levels which exceed the national unemployment rate and hundreds of thousands of
homeless and underemployed Michigan residents are desperate for well-paid, low skill jobs in
construction and public works. The delinquent tax revolving fund has accumulated significant
amounts of money (the Statement of Receipts up to 10-31-91 showed $8.3 million and that tax
collections were $1.1 million ahead of budget) which could be used to provide initial financing for
the establishment of such a revolving fund. Therefore be it resolved, that the 1992 budget be
amended to reflect a reduction of $1 million from the delinquent tax revolving fund with said money
designated for use as loans to municipalities with significant public works and infrastructure
improvement projects, to be approved by the Board of Commissioners. Interest on the loans shall be
zero and no single project requiring more than $200,000.00 shall be approved and no municipality may
receive more than one such loan. Projects involving a 50% or greater match of funds by the
municipality shall be favored for approval. Loans shall be repaid over a period of ten years unless
another time period is specified in individual contracts between the County and the municipality.
Other restrictions may be imposed, on a case by case basis, by the Board of Commissioners.
AYES: McPherson, Oaks, Pernick, Price, Serra, Aaron, Ferrens, Krause. (8)
NAYS: McConnell, McCulloch, Millard, Moffitt, Olsen, Palmer, Pappageorge, Rewold, Schmid,
Skarritt, Wolf, Caddell, Crake, Gosling, Huntoon, Jensen, Johnson, Law. (18)
A sufficient majority not having voted therefor, the amendment failed.
Moved by Aaron supported by Pernick the 1992 Budget be amended as follows:
All general fund budgeted items of expenditures which this Board of Commissioners has the
sole right and authority to dispose and expend, and which expenditures and items are not used in the
year 1992, shall be transferred into a line item known as the "Murphy Millage Reduction Fund."
Further, that any new sources of revenues which are not listed in this budget or revenues listed
which are received in amounts in excess of the amounts set forth in this budget shall also be placed
in the Murphy Millage Reduction Fund. The Finance Committee shall, on or before September 30, 1992,
calculate the exact amount of funds in the Murphy Millage Reduction Fund as of a date certain and
shall estimate the amount that will be in said Fund as of December 31, 1992 and shall use said Fund
as a basis of recommending to this Board of Commissioners a reduced property tax rate for County
operations for the year 1993. This Board of Commissioners reserves the right to use funds in the
Millage Reduction Fund to meet contingencies that may arise and require funding in the year 1992
only.
