IN RE: ROAD COMMISSION - SUPPORT CONTINUATION OF
TRANSPORTATION ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT FUND
(TEDF) WITH ORIGINAL DISTRIBUTION FORMULA
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS, the Transportation Economic Development Fund (TEDF)
has returned over $100 million to Oakland County to address much
needed road improvements related to development; and
WHEREAS, the majority of the monies returned to Oakland County
had been through Category A funding, resulting from applications
submitted by Oakland County's communities; and
WHEREAS, the percentage allocations for Category C were based
on road congestion and were agreed to by all five of the largest
urban counties when TEDF was created in 1987; and
WHEREAS, those congestion problems still exist, thereby
warranting continuation of this category in its current form; and
WHEREAS, Wayne County, which did not apply for Category A
funding as Oakland County did, is now proposing a change in the
Category C funding formula that would reduce Oakland County's share
by almost $2 million per year.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of
Commissioners hereby endorses the continuation of TEDF with the
original distribution fi ormula for Category C.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of
Commissioners calls upri Oakland County Legislators and others to
oppose any changes to the Category C funding formula.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that copies of this resolution be
forwarded to all Oakland County Legislators, the Michigan
Association of Counties, the County's Legislative Agent and State
Government Liaison.
On behalf of the General Government Committee, I move the
adoption of the foregoing resolution.
