By: FINANCE COMMITTEE, SUE ANN DOUGLAS, CHAIRPERSON
IN RE: DEPARTMENT OF MANAGEMENT & BUDGET AND DRAIN COMMISSIONER - REVERSE
PREVIOUS BUDGET ACTION TRANSFERRING STAFF ASSISTANT POSITION FROM DRAIN
COMMISSIONER TO PURCHASING DIVISION AND CREATION OF BUYER II POSITION
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS the Board of Commissioners, in adopting the FY2001 Budget and
General Appropriations Act (Misc. Resolution #00235 dated September 21,
2000), approved the transfer of the financial and purchasing functions,
including three positions, from the Drain Commissioner to the Department of
Management & Budget, effective January 1, 2001; and
WHEREAS the Board action took place prior to installation of the newly-
elected Drain Commissioner and implementation of his transition effort; and
WHEREAS, as a result of a closer examination of this proposed change
during intensive transition investigation of operating requirements, the
transfer of the Staff Assistant position (#03117) from the Drain Commissioner
to the Purchasing Division is detrimental to the ongoing administrative
coordination needs of the Drain office; and
WHEREAS the Drain Commissioner and the Department of Management &
Budget agree that the previous budget action transferring the Staff Assistant
position (#03117) and reclassification of that position to a Buyer II should
be reversed, while leaving procurement responsibilities assigned to the
Purchasing Division; and
WHEREAS the need still exists for a Buyer II position within the
Purchasing Division for procurement functions related to the Drain
Commissioner and the Purchasing Division is requesting the creation of a
Buyer II position; and
WHEREAS the Indirect Cost Allocation Plan most recently developed
indicates that sufficient additional indirect cost revenue will be generated
which can be used to fund the cost of an additional Buyer II position; and
WHEREAS the County Executive recommends approval of this resolution.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of
Commissioners authorizes that the previous action taken with adoption of the
FY2001 Budget and General Appropriations Act, transferring a Staff Assistant
position (#03117) from the Drain Commissioner to the Department of Management
& Budget and reclassification of that position to a Buyer II, be reversed,
while leaving procurement responsibilities assigned to the Purchasing
Division.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that one (1) GF/GP position of Buyer II be
created in the Purchasing Division (12401).
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the FY2001-2002 Biennial Budget be amended
