FISCAL NOTE (Misc. #96267) BY: FINANCE AND PERSONNEL COMMITTEE, SUE ANN DOUGLAS, CHAIRPERSON IN RE: OAKLAND COUNTY PROSECUTING ATTORNEY - TRANSITION EXPENSES TO THE OAKLAND COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen: Pursuant to Rule XII-F of this Board, the Finance and Personnel Committee has reviewed the above referenced resolution and finds: 1. The Public Services Committee recommends the establishment of a transition team for the Prosecuting Attorney - Elect which includes the creation of one (1) temporary full-time position entitled County PrOSeCUtOrTransition Team Coordinator and two (2) temporary full-time Secretary III positions. The positions will be effective from November 21, 1996 through December 31, 1996. 2. The resolution further authorizes an appropriation not to exceed $30,000 from the Designated Fund Balance for Operational Improvements, to cover the personnel and operating cost of the Prosecuting Attorney's Transition Team. 3. Since the Designated Fund Balance for Operational Improvements requires a six (6) year pay-back, the General Fund contingency is a more appropriate source for the appropriation. Further, in order to properly track expenditures a new unit in the Prosecuting Attorney Department entitled Transition Team (#411-02) needs to be created. 4. The 1996 Budget should be amended, as specified below, to cover the estimated expenses: 4-10100-909-01-00-9900 4-10100-411-02-00-1001 4-10100-411-02-00-2070 4-10100-411-02-00-3xxx 4-10100-411-02-00-6360 4-10100-411-02-00-6640 4-10100-411-02-00-6670 4-10100-411-02-00-6750 Contingency Prosecutor - Salaries Prosecutor - Fringes Transition Expense Info.
