CANVASSERS COMPENSATION
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS Michigan Election Law established a three-tiered, population based, per diem for Boards of
County Canvassers compensation that was last amended in 1982 and has become antiquated and created
inequities amongst counties; and
WHEREAS the Governor signed Public Act 614 on December 28, 2018, which repealed the three-tiered,
population based, per diem; and
WHEREAS Public Act 614 requires the County Board of Commissioners to consult with the County Clerk to
determine the compensation for the Board of County Canvassers and any assistants employed by the
Board of County Canvassers; and
WHEREAS the County Clerk is recommending a total compensation package of $15.00 per hour plus
mileage for board members and $13.00 an hour for assistants; and
WHEREAS this hourly rate replaces the per diem and meal allowance previously paid to the board
members; and
WHEREAS funding is currently available within the Elections Division budget for this request.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners authorizes the
total compensation of $15.00 per hour plus mileage for board members and $13.00 an hour for assistants in
compliance with Public Act 614.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that no budget amendment is required at this time.
Chairperson, on behalf of the Legislative Affairs and Government Operations Committee, I move the
adoption of the foregoing resolution.
