BY: Dan Devine, Jr., Commissioner-District #14
RE: PROHIBITION OF TRANSFER OF COMMUNITY RESIDENTIAL SERVICES
(CRS) FROM MACOMB OAKLAND REGIONAL CENTER, INC. (MORC) TO
OAKLAND COMMUNITY MENTAL HEALTH (CMH)
TO THE OAKLAND COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS
Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS, the Oakland County Community Mental Health Board (CMH) has authorized
the transfer of Community Residential Services (CRS) from Macomb Oakland Regional Center,
Inc. (MORC) to the CMH Quadrants; and
WHEREAS, CRS provides residential services and clinical support to 330 Oakland County
adults with serious and persistent mental illnesses; and
WHEREAS, MORC, Inc. has done and is doing an exemplary job of serving the CRS
population; and
WHEREAS, the consumers of CRS and their families are opposed to the transfer because
they are fully satisfied with MORC, Inc.; and
WHEREAS, CMH has not developed an adequate plan to accept the responsibility for CRS
so as to appropriately provide care to the CRS population; and
WHEREAS, the proposed transfer of CRS from MORC, Inc. to CMH is not in the best
interest of the consumers or the taxpayers because the tumult may cause immediate and irreparable
harm to certain members of the CRS population.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that CMH be blocked and prohibited from
transferring CRS from MORC, Inc. to the CMH quadrant system.
Chairperson, I move the adoption of the foregoing resolution.
