IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Agreement the day and date first written above. OAKLAND COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS By: Its: COMMUNITY By: It's: 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 IRCOC) 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 Tri- 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 PA. 9, which amended 1913 PA, 380, by adding a new section 2, which in pertinent part provides: "(1)...A county may grant Of 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 SO% 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 re- allocated 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. 2017 DISTRIBUTION FORMULA Attachment "B" City/Village Auburn Hills ' Cert Major Load Road Miles 32.33 MilesPopalatiOn 4.82% 21,412 p % 2.80% Crash Data 236 Crash % 1.34% Miles+ Crash • 2.99% Proposed Allocatioa .• $59,753 Max County ate in& $29,877 Berkley 15.63 233% 14,970 1.96% 55 0.31% 1.53% $30,683 $15,342 Beverly Hills 10.99 1.64% 10,257 1.34% 40 0.23% 1.07% $21,398 $10,699 Bingham Farms 1.02 0.15% 1,111 0.15% 54 0.31% 0.20% $4,025 $2,013 Birmingham 21.87 3.26% 20,103 2.53% 580 3.29% 3.06% $61,196 $30,598 Bloomfield Hills 6.83 132% 3,869 0.51% 235 1.33% 1.05% $21,039 $10,520 Cla rkston 1.48 0.22% 882 0.12% 37 0.21% 0.18% $3,640 $1,820 Clawson 9.62 1.44% 11,825 1.55% 134 0.76% 1.25% $24,960 $12,480 Farmington 7.36 1.10% 10,372 1.36% 183 1.04% 1.16% $23,284 $11,642 Farmington Hills 58.36 8.71% 79,740 10.43% 1955 11.08% 10.07% $201,492 $100,745 Ferndale 20.99 3.13% 19,900 2.60% 219 1.24% 2.33% $46,513 $23,257 Franklin 4.34 0.65% 3,150 0.41% 48 0.27% 0.44% $8,878 $4,439 Hazel Park 17.12 2.55% 16,422 2.15% 188 1.06% 1.92% $38,445 $19,223 Holly 7 1,04% 6,086 0.80% 83 0.47% 0,77% $15,421 $7,711 Huntington Woods 635 1.04% 6,238 0.82% 58 0.33% 0.73% $14,533 $7,267 Keego Harbor 1.93 0.29% 2,970 0.39% 80 0.46% 038% $7,547 $3,774 Lake Angelus 0 0.00% 290 0.04% 22 0.12% 0.05% $1,084 $542 Lake Orion 2.74 0.41% 2,973 039% 123 0.70% 0.50% $9,980 $4,990 Lathrup Village 7.36 1.10% 4,075 0.53% 185 1.05% 0.89% $17,867 $8,934 Leonard 2.34 0.35% 403 0.05% 4 0.02% 0.14% $2,817 $1,409 Madison Heights 21.5 3.21% 29,694 3.89% 745 4.22% 3.77% $75,431 $37,716 Milford 7.3 1.09% 6,175 0.81% 108 0.61% 0.84% $16,716 $8,358 Northville* 0.8 0.12% 5,970 0.78% 109 0.62% 0.51% $10,110 $5,055 Novi 39.52 5.90% 55,224 7.23% 1313 7.44% 6.86% $137,104 $68,551 Oak Park 18.35 2.74% 29,319 3.84% 275 1.56% 2.71% $54,220 $27,110 Orchard Lake 1.8 0.27% 2,375 031% 120 0.68% 0.42% $8,397 $4,199 Ortonville 3.21 0.48% 1,442 0.19% 40 0.23% 0.30% $5,962 $2,981 Oxford 6.01 0.90% 3,436 0.45% 107 0.60% 0.65% $13,006 $6,503 Pleasant Ridge 3.59 0.54% 2,526 033% 145 0.82% 0.56% $11,254 $5,627 Pontiac 70.21 10.47% 59,515 7.79% 1264 7.16% 8.48% $169,507 $84,753 Rochester 8.59 1.28% 12,711 1.66% 245 139% 1.44% $28,879 $14,440 Rochester Hills 38.61 5.76% 70,995 9.29% 1945 11.02% 8.69% $173,830 $86,914 Royal Oak 63.96 9.54% 57,236 7.49% 1083 6.14% 7.72% $154,461 $77,230 South Lyon 4.43 0.66% 11,327 1.48% 144 0.81% 0.99% $19,717 $9,859 Southfield 64.71 9.65% 71,739 9.39% 2452 13.90% 10.98% $219,625 $109,811 Sylvan Lake 2.58 0.38% 1,720 0.23% 66 0.38% 0.33% $6,574 $3,287 Troy 57.34 8.55% 80,980 10.60% 2343 13.28% 10.81% $216,211 $108,105 Walled Lake 5.34 0.80% 6,999 0.92% 153 0.87% 0.86% $17,212 $8,606 Wixom 10.49 1.56% 13,498 1.77% 408 2.31% 1.88% $37,628 $18,814 Wolverine 3.69 0.55% 4,312 0.56% 57 0.33% 0.48% $9,598 $4,799 TOTAL 670.29 100.00% 764,251 100.00% 17,639 100.00% 100.00% $2,000,000 $1,000,000 ATTACHMENT C Pilot Local Road Improvement Matching Fund Program Remove and Replace Elmwood Avenue City of Troy Board Project No. 2017-21 Remove and Replace the deteriorated concrete pavement on Elmwood Avenue between Livernois (Main Street) and Rochester Road.

ECONOMIC IMPACT OF PROJECT The Local Road Improvement Pilot Program has been established under MCI 123.872, the Gifts of Property Act, which provides that "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." DESCRIBE HOW THE PROJECT MEETS THE STATUTORY REQUIREMENT OF ENCOURAGING AND ASSISTING BUSINESS TO LOCATE AND EXPAND IN THE COUNTY Elmwood Avenue is an Industrial Road in the City of Troy. It is bordered by Livernois Road (Main Street) to the west; Rochester Road to the east; Maple Road to the north; and 14 Mile to the south. This southern area of the city is an industrial/commercial area of approximately 30 parcels of land in Troy on the north side of the road. The south side, in Clawson, is home to a mix of commercial, multi-family and single family residential homes. Appoximately 40 businesses on the Troy side make their home on Elmwood Avenue as several of the buildings are multi-tenant buildings. The uses are mainly Light Industrial and many are small job shops, These types of uses generate larger volumes of traffic compared to larger sites with single user occupants. Since the density of the area creates more traffic, maintenance of the area is critical to keep the area in demand. Businesses looking to locate in Troy or Oakland County or those that want to maintain their business need to know that the roads will be kept in good repair to provide safe and efficient passage of employees, customers and deliveries, Many of these types of business continue to grow and expand. When they do outgrow their current facility, the desire is for them to stay within the city and within Oakland County. Providing a road network in good condition and one that allows for safe and efficient movement of goods and people is critical as we compete with other cities, counties and states. Transportation has a significant impact on economic conditions, environmental quality, energy consumption, land development and the overall quality of life in a community. It is critical that transportation needs be anticipated and that a community be prepared to address those needs. Communities with poorly defined transportation networks or poor condition roads experience needless congestion and delay and have difficulty in attracting and maintaining commercial and industrial tax bases. On the other hand, communities with well developed transportation systems in good repair posses the natural ability to attract clean, high-tech industrial and commercial endeavors. OPTIONAL MULT1-YEAR PROJECT PLAN 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 Local Road Improvement Program 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 distribution formula. Consideration of multi-year project plans does not obligate Oakland County in any way to fund 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 to authorize a limited carryover of a community's allocation year to year. DESCRIPTION OF MULTI-YEAR PLAN INCLUDING ESTIMATED PROJECT BUDGET AND CARRYOVER PERIOD OF COMMUNITY'S ALLOCATION Not applicable Signature of Authorized Party Brian Kischnick, City Manager Printed Name and Title ADDITIONAL INFORMATION The Local Road Improvement Program Subcommittee of the Finance Committee of the Oakland County Board of Commissioners has been tasked with managing this program and making recommendations for project approval.

OPTIONAL ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Troy has aggressively pursued road funding from all levels of government and appreciates and welcomes the Oakland County Board of Commissioners foresight in continuing the Local Road Improvement Pilot Program to invest in one of our most critical infrastructure assets. While we all continue to look to our legislators for a permanent solution to road funding and ways to stretch our tax dollars to maintain our aging infrastructure, we commend the Oakland County Board of Commissioners for stepping up to provide additional funding to help us fix our roads now.
