#9; Penny Luebs, District #16; Janet Jackson, District #21; Kristen Nelson, District #5; IN RE: BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS – SUPPORT LEGISLATION TO “RAISE THE AGE” FOR JUVENILE OFFENDERS IN MICHIGAN To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen: WHEREAS Michigan remains one of four states in the U.S. that automatically prosecutes 17-year-olds as
adults, regardless of the severity of the crime, which is unaligned with national best practices, recent U.S. Supreme Court decisions, and Michigan’s other governing laws that define “youth” as any individual under the age of 18; and WHEREAS the majority of 17-year-olds entering the criminal justice system are arrested for nonviolent, misdemeanor offenses, many of whom would be eligible for diversion in the juvenile justice system; and WHEREAS national research on adolescent brain development shows that teens are more inclined to take
risks, act impulsively, and succumb to peer pressure, which may lead to delinquent behavior, yet are very responsive to rehabilitative programs and behavior modification during these formative years; and WHEREAS research from the Justice Policy Institute (2017) on states that raised the age of juvenile jurisdiction to 18 shows that the projected costs were consistently overstated, and those states have instead contained costs, reallocated costs to approaches that keep young people in the community, have reduced confinement, and improved community safety; and
WHEREAS according to the Center for Disease Control, prosecuting youths as adults increases recidivism, and states that have transferred their 17-year-olds to the juvenile justice system have experienced improvements in public safety (Justice Policy Institute, 2017); and WHEREAS when adolescents are tried as adults, their conviction data is public and thus accessible to
employers and other professionals resulting in lifelong consequences, including significant barriers to accessing housing, employment, and higher education, and these obstacles lead to a lifetime of poor
physical and mental health outcomes; and WHEREAS the juvenile justice system prioritizes developmentally appropriate community-based programs and diversion services that are not accessible to 17-year-olds in the adult system, and are designed to rehabilitate, and encourage family involvement in treatment.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners hereby declares its support of Senate Bills 84, 90, 91, 92, 93, 94, 95, 96, 97, 98, 99, 100, 101 and 102 and calls upon the Michigan Legislature to pass the “Raise the Age” package to align Michigan’s procedures with standard national practices and raise the age of juvenile court jurisdiction from 17 to 18.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Board of Commissioners urges the Legislature to monitor and adopt an appropriate funding mechanism through the Department of Health and Human Services to cover the
additional costs associated with increasing the age of the juvenile court jurisdiction from 17 to 18. BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Oakland County Clerk/Register of Deeds is requested to forward copies of this adopted resolution to the Governor of the State of Michigan, the Oakland County members of the Michigan congressional delegation, the Oakland County members of the Michigan House of
Representatives, the Oakland County members of the Michigan Senate and the members of the Michigan Senate Judiciary and Public Safety Committee.
Chairperson, I move the adoption of the foregoing resolution. HELAINE ZACK, MARCIA GERSHENSON,

WHEREAS for more than 40 years, Public Act 169 of 1970, Michigan’s Local Historic District Act, has declared historic preservation a public purpose to safeguard a community’s heritage, strengthen local
economies, stabilize and improve property values, foster civic beauty and promote history; and WHEREAS the Oakland County Historical Commission dedicates its historical preservation efforts to these
shared values enabled through PA 169 of 1970, as amended in 1992; and WHEREAS PA 38, 39, and 40 of 2011 amended the Income Tax Act, the Michigan Business Tax Act, and
the Multistate Tax Compact, respectively, to eliminate a number of credits, deductions, and exemptions; and
WHEREAS the State Historic Preservation Tax Credit was one of the credits that was eliminated when those Public Acts took effect; and
WHEREAS the credit provided a financial incentive for taxpayers to invest in Michigan’s historic resources and sites; and
WHEREAS historic restoration projects, which were assisted by the State Historic Preservation Tax Credit, generate positive economic growth in municipalities across the State and Oakland County; and
WHEREAS the elimination of the credit has discouraged developers from renovating historic buildings or sites that currently have an undesirable impact on the community; and
WHEREAS if not for the credit, other states offer this financial incentive to encourage developers to invest in historic sites located outside of Oakland County; and
WHEREAS Oakland County has a long history of supporting the Oakland County Historical Commission; and
WHEREAS Oakland County has 15 local units of government with Historic District Commissions, which contain over 6000 structures many of which are single family residential; and

for the preservation of our local history; and WHEREAS the Oakland County Board of Commissioners urges our State Legislators to reestablish the
State Historic Preservation Tax Program by giving developers an incentive to once again renovate and rehabilitate historic buildings in Oakland County and across the State.

stating, in part, “From the first settlers who came to our shores, from the first American Indian families who befriended them, men and women have worked together to build this nation. Too often the women were
unsung and sometimes their contributions went unnoticed. But the achievements, leadership, courage, strength and love of the women who built America was as vital as that of the men whose names we know
so well”; and WHEREAS in 1987, Congress passed a resolution and President Ronald Reagan issued a proclamation
designating the entire month of March as Women’s History Month, honoring the achievements of American women; and WHEREAS in 1987, the Michigan Women's Historical Center and Hall of Fame was dedicated and opened to the public, displaying cultural and historical exhibits on the accomplishments of Michigan women; and
