Miscellaneous Resolution 4175
BY: Mr. Heacock
IN RE: TEMPORARY PARTIAL RE-OPENING OF #1 LAFAYETTE STREET
TO THE OAKLAND COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS
Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen:
June 13, 1963
For some time your Committee has been considering the problem of furnishing
adequate housing for the Department of Public Works, the Drain Commission and the
Planning Department. Studies in process indicate that a part of the solution to these
problems will be to move the Planning Department out of the Service Building
(550 S. Telegraph Road) to other quarters.
At its meeting on June 11, 1963, your Committee was informed that the Planning
Department will require additional space not later than June 30, 1963, because of the
arrival of personnel in connection with a $200,000 federal planning grant for work
covering a two-year period. In view of this urgent need, your Committee has concurred
in the recommendation of the Board of Auditors to partially re-open the #1 Lafayette Street
building on a temporary basis to house the Planning Department.
Your Committee is of the opinion that during the period of transition in carrying
out the special studies now being made, it may be necessary, on an emergency basis, to
temporarily house other activities in that building.
MR. CHAIRMAN, on behalf of the Buildings and Grounds Committee, I move that
the foregoing report be received and placed on file.
BUILDINGS AND GROUNDS COMMITTEE
Moved by Heacock supported by Yockey the report be placed on file.
A sufficient majority having voted therefor, the motion carried.
