IN RE: SHERIFF DEPARTMENT - EXPANSION OF FUGITIVE APPREHENSION
TE
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS there is a duplication of services in the Prosecutor's
Criminal Investigations Division and Technical Services Division's
Special Teams Unit within the Sheriff's Department as it relates to
the undertaking of criminal investigation activities; and
WHEREAS by virtue of the Prosecutor's Office engaging in both
the police and prosecutorial functions through the conducting of
criminal investigations and serving of warrants respectively, a
conflict-of-interest issue has necessarily been created; and
WHEREAS it is in the best interests of the citizens of Oakland
County that the County's primary police agency perform those
criminal investigative activities within its jurisdiction to
enhance the effectiveness and efficiency of the law enforcement
function.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of
Commissioners approves 1) the deletion of four Prosecutor
Investigator positions and one Secretary I position, including the
corresponding undercover vehicles and radio equipment, in the
Criminal Investigations Division of the Prosecutor's Office, and 2)
creates four Deputy II positions and one Secretary I position, and
adds the necessary undercover vehicles and radio equipment, in the
Special Teams Unit of the Technical Services Division in the
Sheriff's Department.
Chairperson, on behalf of the Public Services Committee, I
move the adoption of the foregoing resolution.
