MR #02120 SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT – 2001/2002 SECONDARY ROAD PATROL GRANT AMENDMENT The Michigan Department of State Police – Office of Highway Safety Planning awarded Oakland County a grant in the amount of $1,047,698, an 8.25% decrease under the 2000/2001 award. Due to reduction of costs for dignitary escort services, it is estimated that sufficient funding is available within the grant to add a Sergeant. Adding this position does not obligate the County to any future commitment. One patrol vehicle (with mobile, prep radio) and MDC will be added to the County Fleet. Coleman moved the Personnel Committee Report to the full Board with the recommendation MR #02120 be adopted. Supported by Gregory. Motion carried on a unanimous roll call vote with Buckley absent. Personnel Committee Page 3 May 8, 2002 LONG TERM CARE INFORMATION Mr. Fayne of Risk Management reported to the Committee on research being conducted on a program to implement a long-term care insurance plan for Oakland County Employees, their families and retirees. This plan holds the potential for easing the financial burden for children in providing care for an aging parent while at the same time facing the costs of raising their own children. The only cost to the county will be administering payroll deductions for current employees. Coverage will be through a group policy, which increases care options and results in savings of as much as 25 -30 percent when compared to an individual policy. A subcommittee of the Fringe Benefit Review Committee is planning to interview consultants who are interested in assisting in the preparation of a request for proposal and who would also assist in the evaluation of the respondents. Upon completion of the selection process a request to hire a specific consultant, along with the proposed consultant costs, will be formally presented to the Personnel and Finance Committees. Amos moved to receive and file. Supported by Coleman. Motion carried on a voice vote. COMMUNICATIONS: Suarez moved to receive and file Items A and B. A. Position Change Summary Report B. Diversity Champion Honor Roll, Birmingham-Bloomfield Task Force Supported by Coleman. Motion carried on a voice vote. ADJOURNMENT: Coleman moved to adjourn at 10:00 a.m. Supported by Amos. Motion carried on a voice vote. ______________________________________________ Nancy Wenzel, Committee Coordinator ______________________________________________ James H.
