IN RE: BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS – RESOLUTION ACKNOWLEDGING A CLIMATE EMERGENCY
AND CREATING AN ENERGY AND ENVIRONMENT INFRASTRUCTURE PLAN IN OAKLAND COUNTY
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS long-term temperature observations are among the most consistent and widespread evidence
of a warming planet; and
WHEREAS temperature affects agricultural productivity, energy use, human health, water resources,
infrastructure, natural ecosystems, and many other essential aspects of society and the natural
environment; and
WHEREAS according the U.S. Global Change Research Program’s (USGCRP) 2017 Climate Science
Special Report, global annual average temperature has increased by more than 1.2°F during a 30-year
time period (1986–2016), in comparison to 1.8°F during an 85-year time period (1901–1986); and
WHEREAS the last few years have also seen record-breaking, climate-related weather extremes, the three
warmest years on record for the globe, and continued decline in arctic sea ice. These trends are expected
to continue in the future; and
WHEREAS some extreme weather occurrences have already become more frequent, intense, or of longer
duration such as increasing ambient temperature, higher frequency of high heat days, more extreme
flooding and inundation, more intense storms, and greater length of droughts and heat waves; and
WHEREAS without substantial and sustained global mitigation and regional adaptation efforts, climate
change is expected to cause growing losses to American infrastructure, agriculture, ecosystems and
property and impede the rate of economic growth over this century; and
WHEREAS since 1980, the cost of extreme events for the United States has exceeded $1.1 trillion;
therefore, better understanding of the frequency and severity of these events in the context of a changing
climate is warranted; and
WHEREAS impacts from climate change on extreme weather and climate-related events, air quality, and
the transmission of disease through insects and pests, food, and water increasingly threaten the health and
well-being of the American people, particularly populations that are already vulnerable;
WHEREAS the quality and quantity of water available for use by people and ecosystems across the country
are being affected by climate change, increasing risks and costs to agriculture, energy production, industry,
recreation, and the environment; and
WHEREAS whether toxic algal blooms impact a major city's water supply, invasive species threaten
commercial fisheries, or contaminated sediments restrict recreational opportunities, limitations on and
threats to the use of Oakland County lakes remain; and
WHEREAS at risk are at least 54 of Oakland County’s lakes in the river basins of the Clinton, Huron, Rouge,
Shiawassee and Flint Rivers, including Cass Lake, Long Lake, Orchard Lake, Pontiac Lake, White Lake,
and others. These lakes have water levels that are monitored and maintained to provide flood control,
maximize recreation and protect property values; and
WHEREAS Oakland County can act as a global leader by both converting to an ecologically, socially and
economically regenerative economy at emergency speed, and by catalyzing a climate emergency
mobilization effort.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners acknowledges
that a climate emergency threatens our cities, county, region, state, nation, civilization, humanity and the
natural world.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that Oakland County commits to a countywide climate emergency
mobilization effort to reverse global warming, with appropriate financial and regulatory assistance from and

encourage such communities to actively participate in order to advocate directly for their needs.

climate emergency. The plan will:
• contain tangible and measurable goals for the utilization of clean and renewable energy sources,
energy efficiency adoption, and reduction of greenhouse gas emissions in county facilities,
transportation systems, and residential, commercial, and industrial properties.
• utilize county-owned properties and parklands for their intended purposes, while also considering
the addition of low-impact, renewable energy sources such as solar photovoltaic (PV) systems
on open land and building roof tops, particularly when planning any improvements to such.
• support similar county-community endeavors to reduce the environmental impact and improve
resiliency and quality of life by increasing the use of electric vehicles, water/energy conservation
and protection efforts, and storm water management policies.

BY: Commissioner William Miller, District #14
IN RE: BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS - SUPPORT FOR THE “DRIVE SAFE” PACKAGE OF BILLS –
MICHIGAN SENATE BILLS 631 AND 632 AND HOUSE BILLS 5192 AND 5193
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS Michigan extended a universal right to hold a driver’s license to all Michigan residents who were
capable and qualified to pass a knowledgeable and practical driving test until 2008 when the rights of some
Michiganders, who were unable to provide proof of legal presence, were revoked; and
WHEREAS current immigration law systematically excludes many members of our immigrant communities
from a path to permanent status or even temporary legal presence and therefore rendered those residents
unable to obtain a Michigan driver’s license since 2008; and
WHEREAS all persons (including immigrants) without a driver’s license experience a diminished quality of
life affecting their ability to take care of themselves and their families, work and attend school, and fully
participate in the community they call home; and
WHEREAS this nation has a strong tradition and heritage in welcoming immigrants, but unfortunately it also
has a history of xenophobic, segregationist, and unequal policies that discriminate against and
disproportionately affect immigrants; and
WHEREAS immigrants who are prevented access to a driver’s license continue to experience daily anxiety,
toxic stress, and perpetual worry that if they drive without a license, they are likely to be targeted and/or
detained by federal immigration officials; and
WHEREAS undocumented immigrants have the same hopes, fears, and dreams as every other member
of our community; and
WHEREAS we acknowledge their humanity and support them in their struggle for permanent protection,
dignity, and respect; and
WHEREAS in recent years, new laws have been passed that now offer drivers’ licenses to immigrants
residing in the following states and territories: California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Hawaii, Illinois,
Maryland, Nevada, New Mexico, New York, Oregon, Puerto Rico, Utah, Vermont, Washington, and
Washington D.C.; and
WHEREAS the “Drive SAFE” (Safety, Access, Freedom, and the Economy) package of bills apply to
Michigan residents who meet the definition of having a residence in Michigan, including those who may not
be able to prove their lawful presence; and
WHEREAS Senate Bill 631 and House Bill 5192 would require the Secretary of State — after developing
rules in cooperation with law enforcement, immigrants’ rights groups and other interested parties — to issue
a driver’s license to applicants who satisfy all other requirements for a license. Senate Bill 632 and House
Bill 5193 would do the same for the issuance of a state identification card.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners calls on the State
of Michigan and its leaders to support the restoration of driving rights of Michiganders by passing The Drive
SAFE package of bills speedily.

amendment(s):
1. Amend the title of the resolution, as follows:
MR #19383 – BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS – SUPPORT FOR ADOPTION OF NEUTRALITY
AGREEMENTS AND CARD CHECK RECOGNITION POLICY FOR AT THE OAKLAND COUNTY.
2. Ament the 1st WHEREAS paragraph, as follows:
WHEREAS collectively bargained language providing for employer neutrality in future union organizing
campaigns began to appear in the late 1970s; and
3. Strike the 4th WHEREAS through the NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED paragraphs and
replace with the following language:
WHEREAS the County seeks a means of efficiently and amicably resolving disputes with Unions
relating to County employees; and
WHEREAS the County recognizes that state labor law guarantees employees the right to form
or select any labor organization to act as their exclusive representative for the purpose of
collective bargaining with the County, or to refrain from such activity; and
WHEREAS this policy does not affect bargaining units that are currently represented by a union
and only addresses County employees not represented by a union; and
WHEREAS the County hereby establishes the following procedure for the purpose of ensuring
an orderly environment for the exercise by the employees of their rights under the Michigan
Public Employee Relations Act (PERA) and to avoid picketing and/or other economic action
directed at the County in the event a union decides to conduct an organizing campaign among
employees.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners herby

MISCELLANEOUS RESOLUTION #19383
BY: Commissioner William Miller District #14
IN RE: BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS- SUPPORT FOR NEUTRALITY AGREEMENTS AND CARD
CHECK RECOGNITION AT THE OAKLAND COUNTY
To Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS collectively bargained language providing for employer neutrality in future organizing
campaigns began to appear in the late 1970s; and
WHEREAS by the late 1990s, as unions bargained for neutrality protection with greater frequency, these
agreements had become a central component of the labor movement’s organizing strategy; and
WHEREAS neutrality agreements combined with card check recognition provide a distinct mechanism
enabling employees to select representatives for purposes of collective bargaining; and
WHEREAS a card check recognition is a different approach to labor movement organizing, which displaces
the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) supervised elections with negotiated agreements; and
WHEREAS a card check recognition is a contract between a union and an employer under which the
employer agrees to support a union’s attempt to organize its workforce; and
WHEREAS if the Labor Organization has valid authorization cards from a majority (50%+1) of the
unrepresented employees working in a Department or County job family, the County shall recognize the
Labor Organization as the collective bargaining representative of those employees; and
WHEREAS if the Labor Organization represents County employees in any other bargaining unit at the time
of the demand for card check recognition, the County may, at its election, condition card check recognition
upon the addition of the newly represented employees into the existing unit; and
WHEREAS within 14 days of recognition, the parties shall meet to start the good faith Bargaining; and
WHEREAS in order to determine whether the Labor Organization has obtained valid authorization cards
from the majority of the employees working in a Department, the following procedures shall apply:
a) The Labor Organization shall initiate the recognition verification process by delivering to the Director
of Human Resources at Oakland County a written Demand for Recognition.
b) Within 5 business days after receipt of the Demand for Recognition by the Director of Human
Resources the parties will contact the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Services (FMCS) for an
appointment of a Mediator who can most expeditiously check the authorization cards as set forth herein.
c) Within 5 business days of receipt of the Demand for Recognition, Oakland County shall send to the
Labor Organization a list of names of all employees working in the classification as of the date the
Demand of Recognition was delivered to the Director of Human Resources. This list shall serve as the
eligibility list.
d) At a time and date mutually agreed upon by the parties or absent agreement, a time and date
determined by the Mediator, the Mediator and parties shall meet at the County and the Mediator shall
compare the original authorization cards obtained by the Labor Organization against the original
handwritten exemplars of the employees furnished by the County.
e) The Mediator shall examine the authorization cards and determine whether the majority of the
employees employed by the County in the classification(s) on the date the Demand for Recognition
was delivered to the Director of Human Resources have executed and dated valid authorization cards;
and
WHEREAS in order to be counted as a valid authorization card toward majority status for the Labor
Organization the authorization card shall:
a) State that the employee designates the Labor Organization as his/her exclusive bargaining
representative for purposes of collective bargaining.
b) Be signed and dated by the employee.
c) The date that the authorization card was signed shall be within one (1) year of the date that the
Demand for Recognition was delivered to the Director of Human Resources.
d) The employee must be employed by the County on the date the Demand for Recognition was
delivered to the Director of Human Resources.
Commissioners Minutes Continued. December 12, 2019
768
e) The Mediator shall certify the results of the card check on the “Statement of Results of Card Check ”;
and
WHEREAS if any dispute shall arise between the parties over their agreement, the unit, the card check or
the authorization cards, it shall be resolved in arbitration by an arbitrator mutually selected by the parties.
The original authorization cards shall remain confidential, but the arbitrator may review the cards in an on-
camera review.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County shall recognize the neutral agreements
and card check recognition as a valid mechanism for future collective bargaining agreements.

Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS Oakland County recognizes a need to ensure that work performed on public construction and
maintenance contracts is performed by responsible qualified firms with the capacity, experience, personnel
and qualifications to perform public contracts in a timely, reliable and cost-effective manner; and
WHEREAS in the furtherance of these goals, the County must establish reasonable minimum standards to
determine the qualifications of responsive and responsible bidders for construction projects and factors for
evaluating bids to ensure that the County receives the best overall value; and
WHEREAS the requirements of this policy are intended to supplement existing Oakland County Purchasing
Policies and Procedures; and
WHEREAS the intent of this policy is to promote, protect public health, safety and welfare within Oakland
County and ensure taxpayers receive the best overall value in the procurement of construction contracts.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners herby approves
Attachment A, the “Responsible Contractor and Best Value Bid Evaluation Standards for Construction

IN RE: BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS – HONORING THE 50TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE OAKLAND
COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS on January 1, 1969, the Oakland County Board of Commissioners was established when the
legislative branch and governing body of Oakland County, formerly the Board of Supervisors, was
reorganized in conformance with the U.S. Supreme Court’s ruling in Reynolds v. Sims, which required that
legislative districts must have roughly equal proportions. The ruling established important civil and voters’
rights protections for all individuals on the principle of “one man, one vote” as provided by the Equal
Protection clause of the U.S. Constitution; and
WHEREAS as Chief Justice Warren wrote in his majority opinion: “Legislators represent people, not trees
or acres. Legislators are elected by voters, not farms or cities or economic interests.” A ruling in Avery v.
Midland applied this important principle to counties and a change in Michigan law in 1967 made direct
elections the basis for electing county boards statewide. The Oakland County Board of Commissioners that
met in January 1969 was the first in the county’s 150-year history to be directly elected by voters to
represent equally populated districts; and
WHEREAS the change from a Board that had consisted of representatives of local cities and townships to
one that required the direct election of representatives from equally populated districts reduced the number
of members from 87 to 27 and laid the foundation upon which all Boards would be built moving forward to
the present day. This new governing body formally adopted the name “Board of Commissioners” at the
beginning of the 1970 session; and
WHEREAS historical records indicate that the new Board faced many of the challenges common to a
representative legislative body, primarily bringing a group of people together towards a common goal. They
struggled for more than four hours and through many parliamentary motions to elect their first chairman.
However, records also reflect a Board that worked together to overcome many obstacles to best serve their
districts and county residents; and
WHEREAS in the 50 years since the founding of the modern Board of Commissioners, Oakland County
has benefited from the time, talents and extraordinary public service of more than 180 individuals in the
office of county commissioner. While their careers, backgrounds and points of view have been as diverse
as this county, all have strived to serve their communities and constituents, and to make Oakland County
a wonderful place to live, work and play.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners do hereby honor
the Oakland County Board of Commissioners and all its current and former members for 50 years of public
service to the people of Oakland County.
Chairperson, we move the adoption of the foregoing resolution.

IN RE: BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS – SUPPORT TO REFORM THE ROAD FUNDING FORMULA OF
PUBLIC ACT 51 OF 1951
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS Public Act 51 of 1951 (PA 51), is the funding mechanism that determines the appropriations for
road funding and transportation across the state; and
WHEREAS this antiquated legislation, nearly 70-years-old, is in desperate need of reform to support the
state’s modern auto infrastructure; and
WHEREAS as hybrid, electric vehicles and future innovative modes of transportation emerge, the problems
will exacerbate; and
WHEREAS the current formula of Act 51 disproportionally distributes revenue for road funding throughout
the state without considering Oakland, Macomb and Wayne counties represent nearly 40% of the
passenger and commercial vehicles and motorcycles registered in the state; and
WHEREAS the tri-county area has the largest volume of traffic, day in and day out, causing significant wear
and tear on the region’s roads, bridges and other infrastructure; and
WHEREAS pending legislation, Senate Bill 27 and Senate Bill 28, provide recommendations to reform Act
51 that would require all vehicle registration fees collected by the secretary of state be directed to the county
in which a vehicle is registered and would require all motor fuel taxes collected to remain in the county in
where the fuel was purchased; and
WHEREAS legislation to reform Act 51 offers solutions to ensure the funding allocation is distributed
proportionately for counties to receive a more equitable share of road funds based on population, volume
of vehicles and drivers, fuel sales, and registration fees collected to fix the deteriorated roads and without
increasing fees or raising taxes; and
WHEREAS the legislation to reform Act 51, projected that had the provisions been in place for the last fiscal
year, Oakland County, cities and villages would have seen a net combined road funding increase of
approximately $115 million; and
WHEREAS adoption the legislation to reform Act 51 would aid in rebuilding the deteriorating road
infrastructure across Oakland County and the State of Michigan.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED the Oakland County Board of Commissioners supports the reform
of Public Act 51 of 1951 - road funding formula to ensure that funding allocation is distributed proportionately
for counties to receive a more equitable share of road funds to rebuild, repair, and maintain the road
infrastructure in the State of Michigan.
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, Michigan Association of
Counties, the members of the Oakland County delegation to the Michigan Legislature, the Board of
Commissioner’s Legislative Lobbyist, and Oakland County’s cities, villages and townships.
Chairperson, we move the adoption of the foregoing resolution.

IN RE: BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS – SUPPORT OF AMENDING THE SOCIAL SECURITY ACT,
SEC. 1905(A)(A), ALSO KNOWN AS THE MEDICAID INMATE EXCLUSION POLICY
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS according to the National Association of Counties, the Medicaid Inmate Exclusion Policy (MIEP)
creates a double standard which puts undue hardships on our county judicial, law enforcement, public
safety and human services systems; and
WHEREAS the Social Security Act, Sec. 1905(a)(A) prohibits the use of federal funds and services, such
as Child Health Insurance Program (CHIP), Medicare and Medicaid, for medical care provided to “inmates
of a public institution”; and
WHEREAS while this language was intended to prevent state governments from shifting the health care
costs of convicted prison inmates to federal health and disability programs, it has an unintended impact on
local jail inmates who are in a pretrial status and pending disposition; and
WHEREAS historically, jails were designed for short-term stays mainly for those pending disposition or
sentencing, as well as for those convicted of lower level crimes such as misdemeanors; and
WHEREAS while many of these individuals would normally be eligible for federal benefits, including health
care coverage under Medicaid, Medicare, and CHIP, a significant misunderstanding of the difference
between local jails primarily serving those pending disposition vs. state prisons housing convicted
individuals has resulted in the loss of federal benefits for millions of Americans; and
WHEREAS the MIEP denies federal benefits to individuals who are pending disposition and still presumed
innocent under the Due Process and Equal Protection clauses outlined under the 5th and 14th Amendments
of the U.S. Constitution, respectively; and
WHEREAS the MIEP also compromises the ability of corrections enforcement authorities to address the
medical needs of inmates; and
WHEREAS the MIEP drives the overincarceration of those suffering from mental health issues and
substance abuse, as county jails are now among the largest behavioral health facilities in the nation; and
WHEREAS county governments operate 2,875 of our nation’s 3,160 local jails, serving as the front door to
our criminal justice system; and
WHEREAS this policy also puts an undue financial burden on local taxpayers to provide the full cost of
health treatment services that would normally be shared among federal, state and local governmental
partners; and
WHEREAS there are currently two bills in the U.S. Senate that would aid pre-trial individuals who have not
yet been convicted of a crime - S. 2626, the Restoring Health Benefits for Justice-Involved Individuals Act,
which would allow for continued access to Medicare, CHIP and veterans' health benefits while an individual
is awaiting trial, and S. 2628, the Equity in Pretrial Medicaid Coverage Act, which supports continued access
to Medicaid benefits while an individual is awaiting trial.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED the Oakland County Board of Commissioners stands in strong
support of amending the Social Security Act, Sec. 1905(a)(A), also known as the Medicaid Inmate Exclusion
Policy.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners acknowledges that access
to health care for those pending disposition and still presumed innocent is a U.S. constitutional right.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners acknowledges that access
to federal health benefits would allow for improved coordination of care while simultaneously decreasing
short-term costs to local taxpayers and long-term costs to the federal government.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners acknowledges that access
to federal health benefits would help counties break the cycle of recidivism caused or exacerbated by
untreated mental illness and/or substance abuse, thereby improving public safety.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Oakland County Clerk/Register of Deeds is requested to forward
copies of the adopted resolution to the United States Secretary of the Health and Human Services, the
President of the United States Senate, the Speaker of the United States House of Representatives,
members of the Michigan congressional delegation, and the Michigan Association of Counties.

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED pursuant to the provisions of MCL 129.12, the Board of Commissioners
