BY: Mr, Levinson
IN RE: COUNTY BUDGET — EDUCATIONAL EXPENSES
To the Oakland County Board of Supervisors
Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS, State law requires the Board of Supervisors to include funds in the
County budget each year for certain educational expenses and costs of the County
Board of Education; and
WHEREAS, the Board of Supervisors is also required each year to include in the
County budget the costs of education for children who come within the iuriscliction of
the Juvenile Court, and
WHEREAS, the Ways and Means Committee of the Board each year reviews the
entire County budget prior to its submission to the Board of Supervisors for consideration
and finds that it is becoming increasingly difficult to provide adequate funds to meet
all of the various services which the County is required to provide for under the present
millage allocation; and
WHEREAS, the Committee feels that educational expenses, including the costs
of education of children who come under the jurisdiction of the Juvenile Court as well
as the expenses of the County Board of Education, should be financed from funds allocated
to the schools rather than charged to the insufficient millage allocated each year to the
County;
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the matter of change in the present State
laws to eliminate educational costs from future County budgets be referred to the Legislative
Committee for study and recommendation to the Ways and Means Committee,
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Ways and Means Committee report back to the
Board the joint recommendations at a future meeting.
