THEREFORE, IN CONSIDERATION OF THE PREMISES AND THE COVENANTS
OF EACH OTHER, THE PARTIES HERETO AGREE as follows:
1. The Parties hereto approve and agree to the acquisition, construction and
financing of the Project as part of the Drain, as herein provided, under and pursuant to Chapter
20 of the Drain Code. Each Public Corporation by way of compliance with Section 29, Article
VII, Michigan Constitution of 1963, consents and agrees to the establishment and location of the
Project within its corporate boundaries and to the use by the Drainage District of its streets,
highways, alleys, lands, rights-of-way or other public places for the purpose and facilities of the
Project and any improvements, enlargements or extensions thereof, and each Public Corporation
further agrees that, in order to evidence and effectuate the foregoing agreement and consent, it
will execute and deliver to the Drainage District such grants of easements, rights-of-way,
licenses, permits or consents as may be requested by the Drainage District as reasonably
necessary for the Project.
2. The Project shall consist of the improvements as described and specified on
Exhibit A, which is hereunto attached and is made a part hereof, and as are more particularly set
forth in the preliminary plans that have been prepared and submitted by the consulting engineers,
which plans are on file with the Office of the Oakland County Drain Commissioner and are
approved and adopted by the Drainage Board. The Project shall be acquired and constructed
substantially in accordance with said preliminary plans and in accordance with final plans and
specifications to be prepared and submitted by the consulting engineers, but variations therefrom
that do not materially change the location, capacity or overall design of the Project, and that do
not require an increase in the total estimated cost of the Project, may be permitted on the
authority of the Drainage Board. Other variations or changes may be made if approved by the
Drainage Board and by resolution of the governing body of each Public Corporation and if
provisions required by paragraph 5 hereof are made for payment or financing of any resulting
increase in the total estimated cost. The estimate of the cost of the Project and the estimate of the
period of usefulness thereof as set forth in Exhibit B are approved and adopted.
3. The Drainage Board shall take or cause to be taken all actions required or
necessary, in accordance with the Drain Code, to procure the issuance and sale of the Bonds by
the Drainage District, in one or more series, in whatever aggregate principal amount is necessary
to finance the cost of the Project not otherwise paid from cash payments to be made by the
Public Corporations or from other sources, including grant funds. Such bonds shall be issued in
anticipation of, and be payable primarily from, the payments to be made by the Public
Corporations to the Drainage District as provided in this contract, and shall be secured
secondarily, if so voted by the Board of Commissioners of the County, by a pledge of the full
faith and credit of the County of Oakland and the Bonds shall be payable in annual maturities the
last of which shall be not more than twenty-five (25) years from the date thereof
4. The Drainage Board shall proceed to take construction bids for the Project and,
subject to the sale and delivery of the Bonds and receipt of any cash payments to be made under
this contract by any the Public Corporations assessed for the Project, enter into construction
contracts with the lowest responsible bidder or bidders, procure from the contractors all
necessary and proper bonds, cause the Project to be constructed within a reasonable time, and do
all other things required by this contract. The Drainage Board may, in its sole discretion, retain
the services of a third-party engineering firm to perform contract administration of the Project,
and payment for such services shall be the responsibility of the Public Corporations as part of the
cost of the Project as described in paragraph 6 hereof All certificates for required payments to
contractors shall be approved by the consulting engineers before presentation to the Drainage
Board and the latter shall be entitled to rely on such approval in making payments.
5. Except as otherwise provided herein, in the event that it shall become necessary to
increase the estimated cost of the Project for any reason, or if the actual cost of the Project shall
exceed the estimated cost, whether as the result of variations or changes made in the approved
plans or otherwise, then the Drainage Board shall not be obligated to pay such increased or
excess cost unless the governing body of each Public Corporation shall have adopted a resolution
approving such increase or excess and agreeing that the same (or such part thereof as is not
available from other sources) shall be defrayed by the issuance of increased or additional bonds
in anticipation of increased or additional payments agreed to be made by the Public Corporations
to the Drainage District in the manner hereinafter provided. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
adoption of such resolution by the governing body of each Public Corporation shall not be
required prior to or as a condition precedent to the issuance of additional bonds by the Drainage
District, if the Drainage District previously has issued or contracted to sell Bonds to pay all or
part of the cost of the Project and the issuance of the additional bonds is necessary (as
determined by the Drainage District) to pay such increased, additional or excess costs as are
essential to completion of the Project according to the plans as last approved prior to the time
when the previous bonds were issued or contracted to be sold. Upon a determination that
additional Bonds are necessary, the Drainage District will promptly notify the Public
Corporations.
6. Except as to the portion of the Project described in paragraph 6a, entitled
"Southfield Bridge Replacements", and except as otherwise defrayed by grants and funds
available from other sources, the Public Corporations shall pay to the Drainage District their
respective shares of the entire cost of the Project. The Public Corporations acknowledge that
while the costs of the Project may be defrayed by grants or funds, the Drainage District and
Drainage Board cannot and do not warrant or guarantee the availability of grants or funds
available from other sources. In the event that such grants or funds are not available, the Public
Corporations shall be responsible to make up any shortfall caused by the unavailability of such
grants or funds. The percentage share of the cost of the Project (except as provided in paragraph
6a), for the CITY of SOUTHFIELD is 69.6579%, the percentage share of cost for the CITY of
LATHRUP VILLAGE is 10.5002%, the percentage share of cost for the VILLAGE of
BEVERLY HILLS is 15.7423%, the percentage share of cost for the TOWNSHIP of
SOUTHFIELD is 1.1119%, and the percentage share of cost for the COUNTY OF OAKLAND
is 2.9877%. That portion of the cost of the Project representing the costs of issuing the Bonds,
including Drainage District administrative costs relating to the Bonds (collectively "Issuance
Costs") shall be paid by all the Public Corporations except the Township of Southfield in
accordance with the Bond Sale Apportionment percentages identified is Exhibit B. The
Township of Southfield shall pay its share of the cost of the Project (less issuance costs) not
defrayed by grants and funds available from other sources to the Drainage District in cash on the
date that the proceeds of the Bonds are received by the Drainage District from the purchaser
thereof. The balance of the cost of the Project (including Issuance Costs) will be defrayed by the
issuance of the Bonds as provided in this contract. Subject to paragraph 6b., the Public
Corporations other than the Township of Southfield agree to pay 100% of the principal of and
interest on the Bonds and all interest payable by the Drainage District on said bonds, all paying
agent fees and other expenses and charges (including the Drainage Board's administrative
expenses) that are payable on account of said bonds (such fees, expenses and charges being
herein called "bond service charges") in accordance with their percentages identified herein.
Such payments shall be made to the Drainage District in semiannual installments, which shall be
due and payable at least fifiteen (15) days prior to each interest payment date specified in the
Bonds. Such semiannual installments shall commence on the date that interest (other than
capitalized interest) or principal first becomes payable on the bonds, and the aggregate amount of
the installments shall be at least sufficient to pay, when due, all principal and interest on the
bonds and all bond service charges payable on account of the bonds. The Drainage District,
within thirty days after delivery of the Drainage District bonds to the purchaser, shall furnish
each of the treasurer of the Public Corporations to be assessed herein, with a complete schedule
of the principal of and interest on the bonds, and the Drainage Board also, at least thirty days
before each payment is due, shall advise the treasurers of each of the Public Corporations of the
amount payable to the Drainage District on such date. If a Public Corporation fails to make any
payment to the Drainage District when due, the same shall be subject to a penalty of 1% thereof
for each month or fraction thereof that such amount remains unpaid after due. Failure of the
Drainage Board to furnish the schedule or give the notice as above required shall not excuse a
Public Corporation from the obligation to make payments when due. The foregoing obligations
shall apply to all bonds issued by the Drainage District to defray the cost of the Project.
Payments shall be made by the Public Corporations when due whether or not the Project has then
been completed or placed in operation. The Public Corporations hereby acknowledge that except
for its apportioned share of the Project as provided herein and identified in Exhibit B, no County
general funds shall be appropriated or pledged pursuant to this contract or for the Project. The
Public Corporations shall be solely responsible for all administration and construction costs
(including attorney fees and all dispute resolution costs), all costs of operation and maintenance
of the Project, all costs and expenses relating to Claims and lawsuits as described in paragraphs
16 and 17 hereof and all items of cost described in paragraph 7 hereof in the same manner and
percentages as herein provided with respect to other costs of the Project.
6a. "Southfield Bridge Replacements". The Parties acknowledge and agree that a
portion of the Project provides for the replacement of three (3) residential street bridges located
within the right of way of the Drain and wholly within the City of Southfield; and, that the
replacement of the bridges is necessary to protect the existing and future integrity of the Drain.
The CITY of SOUTHFIELD agrees to pay the entire cost, as estimated and set forth in Exhibit
B, including future operation and maintenance, of that portion of the Project identified as the
Southfield Bridge Replacements. The CITY of LATHRUP VILLAGE, VILLAGE of BEVERLY
HILLS, TOWNSHIP of SOUTHFIELD, and the COUNTY OF OAKLAND shall not be
obligated to pay any costs, including future operation and maintenance of the bridges,
concerning that portion of the Project known as the Southfield Bridge Replacements. The
Southfield Bridge Replacements shall be included in the entire Project Cost for purposes of
bonding under this contract and the "Bond Sale Apportionments" are reflected in Exhibit B.
6b. Any Public Corporation identified herein, may elect to pay its percentage share of the
Project contained in paragraph 6 less the Issuance Costs and not otherwise defrayed by grants
and funds available from other sources to the Drainage District in cash on the date that the
proceeds of the bonds are received by the Drainage District from the purchaser thereof. The
balance of the cost of the Project (including Issuance Costs) will be defrayed by the issuance of
Bonds as provided in this contract. The Public Corporations that do not elect to pay their
percentage share as identified in paragraph 6 agrees to pay 100% of the principal and interest on
the bonds payable by the Drainage District on the said Bonds, all paying agent fees and other
expenses and charges (including the Drainage District's administrative expenses) that are payable
on account of said Bonds (such fees, expenses and charges herein called "bond service charges").

advance of maturity all or any part of an installment due the Drainage District on the Bonds by
surrendering to the Bonds issued hereunder of a like principal amount maturing in the same
calendar year or by paying to the Drainage District in cash the principal amount of any Bonds
that are subject to redemption prior to maturity, plus all interest thereon to the first date upon
which such bonds may be called for redemption, and plus all applicable call premiums and bond
service charges, and in such event the Drainage Board shall call said bonds for redemption at the
earliest possible date. The installments or parts thereof so prepaid shall be deemed to be the
installments or parts thereof falling due in the same calendar year as the maturity dates of the
Bonds surrendered or called for redemption.

of the cost of the Project allocable to the Public Corporations, and after completion of the Project
and payment of all costs in connection therewith, any surplus remaining from the sale of the
bonds shall be (i) used to purchase the Bonds on the open market or (ii) retained by the Drainage
Board as a reserve for payment of the bond principal and interest maturities next falling due, and

maturities shall be reduced by the principal amount of bonds so purchased or of said reserve, said
reduction in case of the purchase of bonds to be applied as to year in accordance with the year of
the maturity of the bonds so purchased. Any Bonds so purchased shall be cancelled. In the
alternative, such surplus may be used, on request of the Public Corporations and approval by the

Drainage Board at the times herein specified, the amounts herein required to be paid, the state
treasurer or other official charged with the disbursement of unrestricted state funds returnable to
the defaulting Public Corporation pursuant to the Michigan constitution is authorized hereby to
withhold sufficient funds to make up any default or deficiency in funds. In the event the County

Corporation shall impair in any manner the obligations of this contract or affect the obligations
.•
hereunder. In the event that all or any part of the territory of a Public Corporation is
incorporated as a new city or village or is annexed to or becomes a part of the territory of another
Public Corporation, the Public Corporation into which such territory is incorporated or to which
such territory is annexed shall assume the proper proportionate share of the contractual
obligations (including the pledge of full faith and credit), which proper proportionate share shall
be fixed and determined by the Drainage Board and shall be binding upon all parties concerned
unless, within sixty (60) days after such incorporation or annexation becomes effective, the
Public Corporation into which such territory is incorporated or to which such territory is annexed
and such Public Corporation shall by mutual agreement and with the written approval of the
Drainage Board fix and determine such proper proportionate share. The Drainage Board, prior to
making such determination, shall receive a written recommendation as to the proper
proportionate share from a committee composed of one representative designated by the
governing body of the Public Corporation from which the territory is taken, one designated by
the governing body of the new Public Corporation or the Public Corporation annexing such
territory and one independent registered engineer appointed by the Drainage Board. Each
governmental unit shall appoint its representative within fifteen (15) days after being notified to
do so by the Drainage Board and within a like time the Drainage Board shall appoint the
engineer third member. If any such representative (other than the appointee of the Drainage
Board) is not appointed within the time above provided, then the Drainage Board may proceed
without said recommendation. If the committee shall not make the recommendation within
forty-five (45) days after its appointment or within any extension thereof by the Drainage Board,
then the Drainage Board may proceed without such recommendation,
12. If the Bonds are not sold to finance the acquisition and construction of the Project
within three years from the date of this contract or if the Project is abandoned for any reason, the
Public Corporations shall pay, or reimburse the Drainage District for the payment of, their
respective shares of all engineering, legal, Issuance costs, and other Costs and Overhead (as
'
defined in paragraph 7) incurred by the Drainage Board in connection with the Project and the

whether direct, indirect or consequential, whether based upon any alleged violation of the
constitution (federal or state), any permit, any statute, rule, regulation or the common law,
whether in law or contract.
17. The parties hereto agree that the costs and expenses of any lawsuits arising
directly or indirectly out of this contract or the construction or financing of the Project, to the
extent that such costs and expenses are chargeable against the Drainage District or the Drainage
Board, shall be deemed to constitute a part of the cost of the Project and shall be paid by the
Public Corporations in the same manner and percentages as herein provided with respect to other
costs of the Project. In the event of such litigation, the Drainage Board shall consult with the
Public Corporations and shall retain legal counsel agreeable to the Drainage District and the
Public Corporations to represent the Drainage District; provided that if the Drainage District and

shall be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or
•
unenforceability shall not affect any other provisions hereof, but this contract shall be construed
as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein.

FISCAL NOTE ( MISC. 103140)
BY: FINANCE COMMITTEE, CHUCK MOSS, CHAIRPERSON
IN RE: DRAIN COMMISSIONER - RUMMELL RELIEF DRAINAGE DISTRICT DRAIN
BONDS
TO THE OAKLAND COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS
Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
Pursuant to Rule XII-C of this Board, the Finance Committee has
reviewed the above referenced resolution and finds:
1. The Drain Commissioner is requesting authorization from
Oakland County for a Bond Issue pursuant to provisions of
the Drain Code of 1956, as amended.
2. The resolution provides for Oakland County to pledge its
full faith and credit to the Rummell Relief Drainage
District Drain Bonds in an amount not to exceed $3,710,000
for the purpose of constructing the Rummell Relief Drain
Improvements.
3. The project includes bridge replacements with the City of
Southfield responsible for 100% of the bridge replacement
cost of $1,628,000.
4. The drain repair portion of the project cost is estimated
at $2,082,000 and will be apportioned to the benefiting
public corporations (Oakland County, City of Southfield,
City of Lathrup Village, Village of Beverly Hills, and the
Township of Southfield).
5. Oakland County, on account of benefit for road drainage, is
responsible for 2.9877% of the drain repair portion of the
project, or $62,204.
6. It is anticipated that the 2003 series bonds will be sold
in July 2003, with interest rate being determined by the
market.
7. Funding is available in the FY 2003 Non-Departmental
Current Drain Assessment account to cover the County's
drain repair construction apportionment of $62,204;
allowing the County to opt out of the bond sale and avoid
annual bond interest payments.
8. No additional General Fund monies or amendments are
required.
