Attachment "A"
PILOT LOCAL ROAD IMPROVEMENT MATCHING FUND PROGRAM
STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
Oakland County Government recognizes that Michigan law places the primary responsibility
for road funding on the State and non-county local units of government. However, the County
also recognizes that the law does permit a limited, discretionary role for the County in
assisting a road commission and local units within a county by supporting some road
maintenance and improvement efforts.
Accordingly, for many years Oakland County has voluntarily provided limited assistance to its
cities, villages and townships (CVT's) and to the Road Commission of Oakland County
(RCOC) by investing in a discretionary Tr-Party Road Program. Authorized under Michigan
law, the County's tri-party funding contributions primarily facilitate safety improvement
projects on CVT roads under the jurisdiction of the RCOC. By law, tri-party funds cannot be
used to fund projects on roads solely under the jurisdiction of CVT's.
Recognizing a continuing need to better maintain local CVT streets and roads, yet being ever
mindful of the County's limited responsibility for and jurisdiction over non-county roads and
streets, Oakland County Government wishes to pilot a discretionary program that is more
flexible than the current Tr-Party Road Program, one that will allow Oakland County to assist
its cities and villages with maintenance and safety projects on non-county roads.
Not being the funding responsibility of County government, local CVT roads generally cannot
be maintained or improved using county funds because doing so would be considered to be
the "gifting" of County resources. However laudable the purpose, Michigan law generally
forbids the gifting of government resources. To avoid application of the constitutionally-based
gifting restriction, the state legislature must, and in this arena has, determine that a public
benefit results from a taxpayer investment, one that provides a quid pro quo sufficient to
avoid application of the gifting prohibition. Here, the legislature has determined that the
economic development benefit presumed to accrue to a county as a result of local street and
road investments can provide a sufficient quid pro quo to county taxpayers justifying a
discretionary county investment in a non-county road, a benefit that constitutes a fair
exchange for value and not a gift.
This legislative determination is set forth in 1985 P.A. 9, which amended 1913 P.A. 380, by
adding a new section 2, which in pertinent part provides:
"(1)...A county may grant or loan funds to a township, village or city located within that
county for the purpose of encouraging and assisting businesses to locate and expand
within the county...
(2) A loan or grant made under subsection (1) may be used for local public
improvements or to encourage and assist businesses in locating or expanding in this
state, to preserve jobs in this state, to encourage investment in the communities in
this state, or for other public purposes."
Communities that wish to attract, retain and grow business, retain jobs and encourage
community investment, needs a safely maintained road infrastructure. This road infrastructure
must include both residential and commercial roads as workers and consumers need to get to
and from work, shopping, schools and recreation. In a fiscally prudent and limited manner,
the County wishes to help its cities and villages accomplish this objective by test-piloting a
new local road improvement matching fund program.
Any such program must be mindful of the limits imposed under Public Act 9. One important
restriction Public Act 9 imposed on grants or loans made pursuant subsection 2 of the Act is
the mandate that, "A grant or loan under this subsection shall not be derived from ad valorem
taxes except for ad valorem taxes approved by a vote of the people for economic
development." This means that funding for an expanded local road assistance program
cannot utilize proceeds from any of Oakland County's ad valorem tax levies since no levy has
been approved by voters specifically for economic development.
Given this limitation, it appears that the state statutory revenue sharing appropriated to the
County can provide a non-ad valorem source of funds that legally can be used to support the
pilot program. Competition for those funds, which are limited in amount, is fierce and their
yearly availability is subject to the state legislative process. In the recent past, the State
stripped all of those funds away from Michigan counties. Understanding that reality, it shall be
the policy of the Oakland County Board of Commissioners that the Board shall not
appropriate any county funds for a local road improvement matching fund program for non-
county roads in any year where the State of Michigan fails to appropriate statutory revenue
sharing funds to Oakland County in an amount sufficient to allow the County to first prudently
address its core functions.
Act 9 imposes additional conditions on grants and loans. These include requirements that the
loan or grant shall be administered within an established application process for proposals;
that any grant or loan shall be made at a public hearing of the county board of commissioners
and that the Board shall require a report to the county board of commissioners regarding the
activities of the recipient and a report as to the degree to which the recipient has met the
stated public purpose of the funding.
Understanding all of the above, the Oakland County Board of Commissioners hereby
establishes the following Pilot Local Road Improvement Matching Fund Program:
PROGRAM SUMMARY
The Board of Commissioners establishes a Pilot Local Road Improvement Matching Fund
Program for the purposes of improving economic development in Oakland County cities and
villages. The County intends this Program to assist its municipalities by offering limited
matching funds for specific, targeted road maintenance and/or improvement projects on
roadways under the jurisdiction of cities and villages.
A city or village participating in the Local Road Improvement Matching Fund Program shall
match any fund authorized by the Board of Commissioners in an amount equal to a minimum
of 50% of the cost of the total project award. County participation shall be limited to a
maximum of 50% of the cost of the total project budget. Funding shall be utilized to
supplement and enhance local road maintenance and improvement programs. Funding is not
intended to replace existing budgeted local road programs or to replace funding already
committed to road improvements.
PROJECT GUIDELINES
Program funding shall be utilized solely for the purposes of road improvements to roads
under the jurisdiction of local cities and villages. Road improvements may include, but not be
limited to, paving, resurfacing, lane additions or lengthening, bridges, or drainage as such
improvements relate to road safety, structure or relieving congestion.
Program funding:
May be utilized to supplement a local government's matched funding for the purposes of
receiving additional federal transportation funding;
May not be utilized to fulfill a local government's responsibility to fund improvements to state
trunklines;
Shall be limited to real capital improvements to roadways and shall not be utilized for other
purposes, such as administrative expenses, personnel, consultants or other similar purposes;
Shall not be utilized for non-motorized improvements, unless these improvements are
included in a project plan for major improvements to a motorized roadway;
Shall be utilized for projects that will result in a measurable improvement in the development
of the local economy and contribute to business growth. Recipients shall be responsible for
providing an outline of the economic benefits of the project prior to approval and for reporting
to the Board of Commissioners after the completion of the project on the benefits achieved as
a result of the projects.
ADMINISTRATION
Local Road Improvement Matching Fund Program projects may be appropriated by the Board
of Commissioners in compliance with the County budget process. The amount of funds to be
dedicated for the Pilot Program shall be determined by the Board of Commissioners on an
annual basis. Program funding may be reduced or eliminated based upon the ability of the
County government to meet primary constitutional and statutory duties. The Board of
Commissioners expressly reserves the right to adjust the County matching funds share at any
time based upon County budget needs.
In accordance with MCL 123.872, funds dedicated to the Local Road Improvement Matching
Fund Program shall not be derived from ad valorem tax revenues. Program funding shall be
limited to funds derived from the County's distribution from the Michigan General Revenue
Sharing Act. Reduction or elimination of the County's distribution of revenue sharing funds
may result in the elimination or suspension of the program.
Funding availability shall be distributed based upon a formula updated annually. The formula
will consist of:
1. A percentage derived from the number of certified local major street miles in each
city and village divided by aggregate total of certified local major street miles of all
cities and villages in the county.
2. A percentage derived from the population of each city and village as determined by
the last decennial census conducted by the U.S. Census Bureau divided by the
aggregate total population of cities and villages in the county.
3. A percentage derived from the three year rolling total of the number of crashes on
city and village major local streets divided by the aggregate three year rolling crash
numbers for all city and village major local streets. The crash data will be supplied
by the Road Commission for Oakland County using data from the Traffic
Improvement Association.
Each city and villages percentage allocation shall be determined by adding each factor
percentage and dividing that total by three. The amount of funds available for match shall be
determined by the total amount of funds allocated by the Board of Commissioners added to
an equal amount representing the match provided by local cities and villages.
The Chairman of the Finance Committee of the Board of Commissioners shall establish a
Subcommittee on the Local Road Improvement Program. This subcommittee shall consist of
three members, with two members representing the majority caucus and one member
representing the minority caucus. It shall be the responsibility of the Subcommittee to direct
the administration of this program, receive applications for program funding and make
recommendation of acceptance to the Finance Committee and Board of Commissioners. The
Subcommittee may consult with county departments, staff and the Road Commission for
Oakland County in the conduct of its business.
DISBURSEMENT
The Subcommittee shall forward recommendations for approval of Local Road Improvement
Matching Fund Program projects to the Chairman of the Board of Commissioners. This
recommendation shall include a cost participation agreement between the County and
participating municipality. Minimally, cost participation agreements shall include: responsibility
for administering the project, the project location, purpose, scope, estimated costs including
supporting detail, provisions ensuring compliance with project guidelines, as well as
disbursement eligibility requirements. The cost participation agreement shall also require the
maintenance of supporting documentation to ensure compliance with the following provisions:
1. Any and all supporting documentation for project expenditures reimbursed with
appropriated funding shall be maintained a minimum of seven years from the date of final
reimbursement for actual expenditures incurred.
2. The Oakland County Auditing Division reserves the right to audit any and all project
expenditures reimbursed through the program.
Upon receipt of recommendation of project approval from the Subcommittee, the County
Commissioner or Commissioners, representing the area included in the proposed project,
may introduce a resolution authorizing approval of the project and the release of funds.
Resolutions shall be forwarded to the Finance Committee of the Board of Commissioners,
who shall review and issue a recommendation to the Board on the adoption of the resolution.
The Chairperson of the Finance Committee shall schedule a public hearing before the Board
of Commissioners prior to consideration of final approval of the resolution.
The deadline for projects to be submitted for consideration shall be established by the
Subcommittee. The Subcommittee may work with participating municipalities to develop a
plan for projects that exceed that municipality's annual allocation amount. This may include a
limited plan to rollover that municipality's allocation for a period of years until enough funding
availability has accrued to complete the project, subject to funding availability.
Upon completion of project plans and execution of the local participation agreement by the
County and governing authority of the local municipality, the participating municipality shall
submit an invoice in accordance with the terms and conditions included in the agreement.
The Oakland County Department of Management and Budget Fiscal Services Division shall
process payments in accordance with policies and procedures as set forth by the Department
of Management and Budget and the Oakland County Treasurer.
In the event an eligible local unit of government chooses not to participate in the Local Road
Improvement Matching Fund Program, any previously undistributed allocated funding may be
reallocated to all participating local units of government in accordance with the formula
included in this policy.
At the completion of each project, the participating local government shall provide a report to
the Board of Commissioners regarding the activities of the recipient and the degree to which
the recipient has met the stated public purpose of the funding as required by MCL 123.872.
LOCAL ROAD IMPROVEMENT SUBCOMMITTEE
FINANCE COMMITTEE, OAKLAND COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS
Provision regarding existing funded local road programs and projects. The standard project
agreement shall require participating municipalities to acknowledge that the Local Road
Improvement Program is meant to supplement and to not replace funding for existing road
programs or projects.
Fulfillment of economic benefit provisions of MCL 123.872. The Pilot Local Road
Improvement Program has been established by the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
under the authority granted by MCL 123.872, which provides that "A county may grant or loan
funds to a township, village or city located within that county for the purposes of encouraging
and assisting businesses to locate and expand within the county". It shall be the responsibility
of the municipality to outline the extent to which the project included in their application will
meet these standards. The Subcommittee shall only consider projects that meet the
standards provided in MCL 123.872. The standard project agreement shall include a
provision requiring the participating municipality to fulfill the statutory requirement included in
MCL 123.872 that, "the grant or loan contract made by county shall require a report to the
county of board of commissioners regarding the activities of the recipient and the degree to
which the recipient has met the stated purpose of the funding."
Multi-year projects. The Local Road Improvement Program has been expressly established
as a pilot program. There is no guarantee the program will be continued from year to year.
The Subcommittee recognizes that the allocation authorized for local governments may not
provide adequate funding in a single year to allow a project to move forward. Local
governments shall be offered the opportunity to submit project plans that would necessitate
the accumulation of multiple years of the community's allocation amount to fulfill the county's
share of a project budget. A multi-year project plan submittal shall not exceed three years in
duration. The allocation amount available to each community is subject to change annually
based upon the factors utilized in the formula. Consideration of multi-year project plans does
not obligate Oakland County in any way to funding any project or program in the future.
These plans are meant to be utilized for planning purposes and for consideration by the
Oakland County Board of Commissioners regarding authorizing a limited carryover of a
community's allocation year to year.
Completion of projects and submittal of post-project report. The standard cost participation
agreement shall include a provision requiring the municipality to complete the project and
submit the required post-project completion report prior to the end of the next calendar year
following the date of project approval. An alternative schedule may be approved for a project
by action of the Board of Commissioners, upon recommendation of the Subcommittee.
