WHEREAS, as provided by Public Act 462 of 1996 - Enhanced Access to Public Records
Act, the Board of Commissioners, by approving Misc. Resolution #97165 on August 14, 1997,
adopted the Oakland County Enhanced Access to Public Records Policy; and
WHEREAS Section 3 (FEES) of the aforementioned policy specifies that "It is the policy
of Oakland County to charge a reasonable fee for providing access to ....output from a geographical
information system"; and
WHEREAS the policy defines "reasonable fee" as a charge calculated to enable recovery,
over time, only those operating expenses directly related to the public body's provision of enhanced
access; and
WHEREAS the policy further specifies that proposed fees shall be presented to and approved
by the Board of Commissioners before they shall be effective; and
WHEREAS the County, in conjunction with Ayres Associates (Professional Services
Contract for $98,500 plus internal quality assurance efforts), has developed a Countywide
orthophotography database positioned on a central server for access by interested parties; and
WHEREAS, although local governmental units participating in the County's Geographic
Information System (GIS) have been provided copies of the digital orthophotos at no cost, requests
for this information from the general public have increased dramatically; and
WHEREAS, to honor these requests, the GIS Utility and the One Stop Shop would like to
begin the distribution of digital copies of the orthophotos to the public and have acquired one
Intergraph NT Workstation that will be configured to support hardcopy output and Computer Disc
(CD) production; and
WHEREAS the digital orthophotos will be available by geographic township and/or quarter
township tiles at recommended cost recovery fees of $300 and $75, respectively; and
WHEREAS the County Executive recommends adoption of this resolution.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
authorizes the establishment of an Enhanced Access Fee Structure for Digital Orthophotos as
follows:
Quarter Township $ 75.00
Geographic Township $300.00
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that all revenue generated from this endeavor be credited to
the Department of Information Technology.
