BY: General Government Committee, William R. Patterson, Chairperson
IN RE: DEPARTMENT OF HUMAN SERVICES/HUMAN SERVICES COORDINATING
COUNCIL — FY 2000-2001 STRONG FAMILIES/SAFE CHILDREN GRANT
APPLICATION/ACCEPTANCE
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Chairperson, Ladies, and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS Oakland County Government was selected by our community's multipurpose
collaborative body (i.e., the Oakland County Human Services Coordinating Council) in accordance with
Michigan Family Independence Agency (MFIA) policy and Oakland County Board of Commissioners
resolution (#96053) to serve as its alternate fiduciary; and
WHEREAS MFIA has notified Oakland County that funding in the amount of $516,000 for the
period of October 1, 2000, through September 30, 2001, is available to provide ongoing support for the
activities of the Human Services Coordinating Council, including functioning as the contractor and
administrator for any grants received; and
WHEREAS this is the third year of an ongoing grant and no grant application was needed; and
WHEREAS the primary purpose of this program is to assess local needs and resources, gaps in
services, and developing a long-term plan for improving positive results for the development of nurturing
families and the safety of children; and
WHEREAS the funding in question is 100% federal money passed through MFIA; and
WHEREAS the grant funds will continue to cover 100% of the program cost and no additional
County resources, including personnel, are required; and
WHEREAS acceptance of this grant does not obligate the County to any future commitment; and
WHEREAS this grant agreement has been processed through the County Executive Contract
Review Process and the Board of Commissioners Grant Acceptance Procedures; and
WHEREAS during the last and current fiscal years MFIA has delayed providing final contract
language and failed to negotiate in good faith with Oakland County during the contract negotiation process;
and
WHEREAS MFIA has threatened to cease all Strong Families/Safe Children-funded services in
Oakland County unless Oakland County signs its final contract offer; and
WHEREAS MFIA's final contract offer contains contract language that is illegal (violation of
MCL 691.1407) and/or penalizes Oakland County and its prospective human services providers for
MFIA's failure to have proposed MFIA contract language completed and ready for Oakland County review
prior to the start of the 2000-2001 fiscal year; and
WHEREAS this grant acceptance is recommended for approval with modification.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
accepts the FY 2000-2001 Strong Families/Safe Children Grant in the amount of $516,000.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that this acceptance is specifically conditioned upon the MFIA's
agreement to the following contract language changes to its final offer for a fiduciary contract, to wit:
• Deletion of the final sentence of the first paragraph of Section I.L. in the proposed agreement
(page 9), specifically, "In no event, shall the FIA make payment to the contractor for billings
submitted more than 90 days after the end of the billing period."
• Deletion of the final sentence of the only paragraph in Section III.K. in the proposed
agreement (page 14), specifically, "the Contractor shall be respon-sible for the performance of
all assignees or subcontractors."
• Deletion of the language under Article IV. of Amendment #1 to the proposed agreement (page
2 of Amendment #1), specifically, "In the event that the Contractor is audited by FIA and as
part of the audit non-compliance is cited for the HSP, the Contractor is responsible to refund
to FIA all disallowed costs related to the HSP's non-compliance."

• Deletion of the second sentence in the preamble of Section K, under Article VII of
Amendment #1 to the proposed agreement (page 3 of Amendment #1), specifically, "the
Contractor shall be responsible for the performance of all assignees or HSP's."
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners' approval of
the above-referenced contract is specifically conditioned and premised upon the Michigan Family
Independence Agency's concurrence in the terms and conditions contained in the new Section III.W. of the
agreement entitled AGREEMENT EXCEPTIONS AND LIMITATIONS as added by the County.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners authorizes its
Chairperson to execute this agreement subject to the following additional condition: That the County's
approval for entering into this agreement is specifically conditioned and premised upon the acceptance,
approval, and execution of the agreement containing the new Section 111.W. and the deletion of the
language referenced above by the Michigan Family Independence Agency and that the failure of the
Michigan Family Independence Agency to execute the agreement as specified shall, without any further act
of the Oakland County Board of Commissioners, automatically negate and void the County's approval
and/or acceptance of this agreement as provided for in this resolution.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that acceptance of this grant does not obligate the County to any
future commitment and continuation of the special revenue positions in the grant are contingent upon
continued future levels of grant funding.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Board Chairperson is authorized to execute this
agreement, any changes and extensions to the agreement not to exceed fifteen percent (15%) which is
consistent with the agreement as originally approved.
Chairperson, on behalf of the General Government Committee, I move the adoption of the
foregoing resolution.
