MISCELLANEOUS RESOLUTION # 97061 April 10, 1997
BY: General Government Committee, Kay Schmid, Chairperson
IN RE: BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS - SUPPORT PROPOSED LEGISLATION ENABLING COUNTIES
TO BORROW AGAINST FUTURE STATE APPROPRIATIONS TO FUND AN ACCELERATED
REMONUMENTATION PROGRAM
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS Oakland County has initiated a project to develop and implement an integrated Automated
Mapping/Facilities Management Geographic Information System (GIS), and;
WHEREAS, when implemented, the Oakland County GIS is intended to provide an integrated
corporate resource benefitting both the County and local governmental units in the area of facilities
management, facilities maps and records, land records management, tax assessment, zoning and
demographic analysis, emergency services support, and planning, and;
WHEREAS fundamental to the successful implementation of this project is execution of an accelerated
remonumentation program, and;
WHEREAS, although Oakland County remits to the State over $500,000 of annual revenue from
imposition of increased remonumentation fees on County residents, the County only receives $225,000
annually in State funding for the implementation of the remonumentation program, woefully insufficient to meet
the accelerated needs cited above, and;
WHEREAS legislation has been proposed that would enable counties to borrow against future State
appropriations to fund an accelerated remonumentation program.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners supports
the proposed legislation that would enable counties to borrow against future State appropriations to fund an
accelerated remonumentation program so as to ensure the successful implementation of the Automated
Mapping/Facilities Management Geographic Information System (GIS) in Oakland County.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of Gomm i,ss Toners supports the full
reimbursement of all remonumentation costs from the inception of a county program to full completion of that
program.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that copies of this resolution be forwarded to Oakland County's
Legislators, the Governor, the Michigan Association of Counties, and to Oakland County's legislative agents.
Chairperson, on behalf of the General Government Committee, I move adoption of the foregoing
resolution.
