BY: David Levinson (Ways and Means Committee)
IN RE; AUTHORIZE NEGOTIATIONS FOR OFFICE BUILDING AT COUNTY
SERVICE CENTER
To the Oakland County Board of Supervisors
Mr. Chairman„ Ladies and Gentlemen:
An inquiry under date of January 11, 1962, was received by the Chairman of
the Board from Arthur P. Bogue, Attorney, relative to negotiation of a lease on County
owned land for the construction of a proposed lawyers office building. This inquiry
was referred to the Ways and Means and Buildings and Grounds Committees for study.
The joint Committees have reviewed this inquiry and recommend that it be
received and placed on file for future reference.
The Committees recognize that it may be feasible and desirable to have an office
building located near the Court Tower. Such a facility would provide office space for the
abstract companies, the Legal News, a bank, lawyers' offices as well as a restaurant and
would of necessity have to be financed by private capital. Further study should be made
as to possible lease terms and suitable location at the Service Center.
MR. CHAIRMAN, I offer the following resolution:
BE IT RESOLVED, that the matter of possible location of an office building at
the County Service Center be referred to the Ways and Means and Buildings and Grounds
Committees for further study and possible negotiations with any person, firm or corporation
who may have on interest to lease County owned land and construct a facility for this
purpose and that the joint Committees report to the Board their findings and recommendations
at a future date.
