NOTICE OF PROPOSED CHANGE IN BY-LAWS
RE: QUALIFICATION OF ROAD COMMISSION APPOINTEES
TO THE OAKLAND COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS
Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen:
Your Roads and Bridges Committee has had under consideration for some time the
desirability of requiring those interested in appointment to the Board of County Road
Commissioners to file written application setting forth their qualifications. This has also
been recommended to your Committee by the Special County Government Study Committee.
It may be necessary to adopt a new rule to be added to the By-Laws of the Board to
accomplish this. In order that this matter may be considered by the By-Laws Committee,
your Committee wishes at this time to give notice of a proposed amendment to the By-Laws
as follows:
RULE XXIII. Qualification for Road Commission Appointees. Any
person desiring consideration by the Board of Supervisors for appointment to
the Board of County Road Commissioners shall file a written application with
the County Clerk at least 30 days prior to the meeting of the Board of Supervisors
at which an appointment is to be made. The application shall be on a form
furnished by the County Clerk for that purpose and shall set forth the qualifications
of the applicant. The names of all applicants shall appear on the agenda of the
Board meeting and mailed to all members of the Board. This requirement shall
apply to either appointment for a full term or to fill a vacancy. The requirement
may be waived only by a majority vote of the members of the Board of Supervisors
MR. CHAIRMAN, I move that this proposed amendment be referred to the By-Laws
Committee.
