MISCELLANEOUS RESOLUTION # 01259 October 1, 2001
BY: General Government Committee, William R. Patterson, Chairperson
IN RE: ABOLISHMENT OF OAKLAND COUNTY HUMAN SERVICES COORDINATING COUNCIL
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS acting pursuant to published recommendations of the State of
Michigan human services department directors, on March 7, 1996, the Oakland
County Board of Commissioners adopted MR 496053 establishing the Oakland County
Human Services Coordinating Council (OCHSCC); and
WHEREAS in order to insure that taxpayer funds provided the OCHSCC were
subject to the same safeguards and protections as general taxpayer dollars under
governmental control, the Board of Commissioners mandated that the County of
Oakland act as fiduciary for any and all funds made available for the use of the
OCHSCC, and mandated that all OCHSCC funds be handled in a manner consistent with
Oakland County rules, regulations and procedures, which, at all times, were to
be in compliance with the Uniform Budget and Accounting Act, 1968 PA 2, MCL
141.421 as amended; and
WHEREAS Oakland County's designation as fiduciary for the County Board of
Commissioners-created OCHSCC was an essential condition precedent to the Board's
establishment of the OCHSCC; and
WHEREAS the State of Michigan has terminated the County's role as fiduciary
for the OCHSCC by refusing to contract with the County for the performance of
fiduciary services; and
WHEREAS the State's termination of County oversight and fiduciary control
over funds coming into the possession of a coordinating council created by
Oakland County Board of Commissioners' action breaches the condition precedent
to the establishment of the OCHSCC and requires that the OCHSCC organization
established by the Board of Commissioners be abolished.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
hereby abolishes the Oakland County Human Services Coordinating Council
established by MR #96053.
Chairperson, on behalf of the General Government Committee, I move
adoption of the forgoing resolution.
