DEPARTMENTAL DIVISIONS
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS the Board of Commissioners Department is currently organized as two separate divisions with
often un-coordinated governing bodies; and
WHEREAS the Chairman of the Board of Commissioners has identified a need to enact significant reforms
within the Library Board Division (5010300) to update the Law Library's operations to comply with the State
Court Administrative Office's recommendations for affordable alternatives for a di Minimis law library; and
WHEREAS the Chairman of the Board has tasked the Board of Commissioners Administrative Director
Program and Operations Analysis to assume fiscal control of the Law Library budget to facilitate compliance
with this directive; and
WHEREAS under the organization chart approved by the Board of Commissioners on March 27, 1986, the
Library Board was granted authority over Law Library staff; and
WHEREAS since that time, the operations of the Law Library have been reduced significantly; and
WHEREAS the current division of fiscal management and staff oversight of the Law Library does not
constitute an effective management structure; and
WHEREAS the administrative staff of the Board of Commissioners is best positioned to oversee the staff
of the Law Library and ensure the directives of the Board of Commissioners are fulfilled.

reorganizes the Board of Commissioners Department, eliminating the Library Board Division (5010300) and
