IN RE: CHILDREN'S VILLAGE-SUPPORT FOR COURT PLACED STUDENT REVENUE
FUNDING
TO THE OAKLAND COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS
Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS Oakland County operates the Children's Village School,
in cooperation with the Waterford School District; and
WHEREAS all students receiving education in the school are
residents of the Waterford School District pursuant to a Probate
Court order; and
WHEREAS in previous years the State of Michigan School Aid
Formula has included payments to local school districts for the
education of students placed into their district pursuant to a
court order; and
WHEREAS the 1993/1994 School Aid Formula proposed by the
Senate does not include court placed student revenue to local
school districts, the House proposal includes the revenue; and
WHEREAS should funding to local school districts for court
placed students be eliminated, the Waterford School District would
lose approximately $400,000 that was anticipated to operate the
Children's Village School (total state aid revenue for 1993/1994 is
estimated to be $1.2 million); and
WHEREAS the loss of this revenue would result in a detrimental
effect on the Children's Village School operations.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of
Commissioners strongly urges the Oakland County legislative
delegation to retain court placed student revenue at 1.5
memberships, for local school districts as part of the 1993/1994
School Aid Formula.
Chairperson, on behalf of the Public Services Committee, I
move the adoption of the foregoing resolution.
