MISCELLANEOUS RESOLUTION # 14227
BY: Commissioner Marcia Gershenson, District #13
IN RE: BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS — TRANSFER OF FUNDS TO PROVIDE
ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES CONTRACT FOR WOMEN'S ADVISORY BOARD
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS the Women's Advisory Board for Oakland County was established with the adoption
of Miscellaneous Resolution #07236 for the purpose of conducting public forums and studying
matters concerning women in Oakland County, the results of which were reported to the
Oakland County Board of Commissioners; and
WHEREAS the Women's Advisory Board for Oakland County has provided educational forums,
participated in community outreach projects and presented two annual reports addressing the
status and needs of women, girls and families in Oakland County; and
WHEREAS "OPERATION: SUCCESS" a one-day Women Veterans Job and Networking Fair
held in May provided valuable information for women veterans seeking access to services for
career and employment opportunities; and
WHEREAS extensive opportunities exist to provide additional programs to enhance access for
women in Oakland County; and
WHEREAS the lack of administrative support is hampering the ability of the Women's Advisory
Board to fulfill their potential and a limited contract for services would remedy this situation; and
WHEREAS generous donations in support of the efforts of the Women's Advisory Board's
efforts have accrued in the Women's Advisory Board Donation Fund; and
WHEREAS this use of the funds in Women's Advisory Board Donation Fund would add no cost
to county taxpayers and
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Board of Commissioners authorizes the use of
$7,100 of funds in the Women's Advisory Board Donation Fund for contractual services to
provide administrative support.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Board of Commissioners authorizes the transfer of funds
from the Women's Advisory Board Donation Fund to Board of Commissioners Special Projects
line item.
