To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS, SB 525, Revisions to the Michigan Mental Health Code, has been
introduced and referred to the Senate Committee on Families, Mental Health and
Human Services, and,
WHEREAS, it is the Counties who administer and deliver the mental health
services to the Citizens of this State, and it is the Counties of Michigan,
through their Boards of Commissioners, which have the most intimate knowledge of
those areas of the Mental Health Code which need revision, and
WHEREAS, on behalf of the Counties of Michigan, the Michigan Association
of Counties has worked for several years to insure that changes to the Mental
Health Code would recognize and correct deficiencies in the statute, and has
proposed amendments to SB525 which would improve the Counties' financial ability
to provide mental health services by allowing a 5$ carry forward of State funds,
and would protect counties from assuming additional liability, and would
reinstate the Counties budgetary oversight commensurate with the responsibilities
of full management, and
WHEREAS, this legislation, as drafted by the Department of Mental Health
and as presently before the legislature, does not include the amendments which
were proposed by the Michigan Association of Counties and endorsed by this Board
of Commissioners by the adoption of Resolution *95150.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
does hereby express its opposition to 53525 in its present form, and directs that
