IN RE: STUDY OF JUVENILE FACILITIES AND PROGRAMS
TO THE OAKLAND COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS
Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen:
At the September 19, 1960, meeting of the Board, Miscellaneous Resolution No. 3694
was adopted which authorizes the employment of Dr. Friedland to make a study relative to
County juvenile facilities and programs. Dr. Friedland had previously prepared a report for
the County and made certain recommendations which were reported to the Board at the September
19, 1960, meeting.
Your Committee met with Dr. Friedland on January 5, 1961 and at that time received
an additional report from him covering the costs of converting the Tuberculosis Sanatorium to
a children's home and the cost of remodeling the former Contagious Hospital as a tuberculosis
sanatorium. These possibilities were set forth in Dr. Friedland's recommendations which were
reported to the Board in September.
As a result of the further study made by Dr. Friedland covering the housing needs of
the juvenile program in Oakland County during the next 3 to 5 years, he has now recommended
the transfer of the Nurses Home at the Tuberculosis Sanatorium to the Juvenile Division of the
Probate Court for use as a children's facility.
Your Committee adopted a resolution to continue a review of Dr. Friedland's
recommendations and to call a joint meeting of the Tuberculosis Sanatorium, Juvenile,
Buildings and Grounds and Ways and Means Committees on February 2, 1961, at 10:00 a.m.
at which time the recommendations are to be considered further. After a more complete
review of these reports, recommendations will be submitted to the Board for consideration.
