COUNTY MICHIGAN
TO SSAGE
I regret I must veto Miscellaneous Resolution 93171.
I agree with the intent of the Resolution: to eliminate
any confusion on the procedure to be followed in the
process of approval, veto or override of any Board
resolution. However in the attempt to clarify that very
procedure, paragraph 3A misstates or possibly confuses
the very point regarding timeliness of the veto.
Paragraph 3A reads:
"In order to be timely and effective, a County
Executive veto must be certified to the County
Commissioners by deliverance of the veto message to
the County Clerk within 10 days after the date of the
adoption of the ordinance or resolution."
I would sign the Resolution if one word of paragraph
3A was amended as follows:
"In order to be timely and effective, a County
Executive veto must be certified to the County
Commissioners by deliverance of the veto message to
the County Clerk within 10 days after the date of the
presentation of the ordinance or resolution."
I respectfully request that the Board make the
amendment proposed in this Veto Message.
