MISCELLANEOUS RESOLUTION #98078
BY: Commissioners Gilda Jacobs, Eric Coleman, Donna Huntoon and Frank Millard
IN RE: SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT -POLICY FOR UNIFORMED DEPUTY PRESENCE AT COURTS
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS the Courthouse Security program, under the direction of the Sheriff
was instituted in late 1992 for the 6th Circuit Court; and
WHEREAS since 1992, this program has expanded to include security for the
District Courts in Rochester Hills, Clarkston, Troy, and Bloomfield Township; and
WHEREAS in 1996 the Friend of Court Division requested and received Court
Security; and
WHEREAS with the most recent addition of providing Sheriff's Deputies to
the 48th District Court in Bloomfield Township, it is apparent that a policy on
the provision of such service will provide an equitable situation for all
judicial agencies within the County, and will provide a standard of trained,
experienced law enforcement professionals to protect the courts and our citizens.
WHEREAS to facilitate equity between the Courts, all requests for Sheriff's
deputy services to Oakland County Courts will be uniformly filled with full-time
deputies.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
does hereby establish a policy for the contracting of uniformed deputies to
provide security services for the Courts within Oakland County; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that upon the Board of Commissioners' receipt of a
written request from courts within Oakland County for the provision of deputies
to those courts, the Board of Commissioners shall approve a contract for such
security service; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that such contracts shall provide for full-time
deputy position(s) and shall require the contracting courts to reimburse Oakland
County the personnel costs, capital costs and operating costs incurred for
providing this service; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the operating expenses of providing such
deputies, shall include the leased cost of portable radios (and vehicles, if
requested), uniforms, supplies and liability insurance; and
