2. MR #07249 - DRAIN COMMISSIONER – REQUEST FOR $150,000 LOAN FROM THE
LONG TERM REVOLVING FUND FOR REPAIR OF THE OXFORD MULTI-LAKES LEVEL
CONTROL STRUCTURE
The Circuit Court for the County of Oakland, by court order on May 9, 1973, established the
normal lake levels for the Oxford Multi-Lakes pursuant to the provisions of Part 307, Inland Lake
Levels, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, MCLA 324.30701 et seq.
The Office of the Drain Commissioner inspected the lake level control structure utilized to
maintain the normal levels for the Oxford Multi -Lakes and has determined that the public health,
safety and welfare of the property owners and residents of Oxford Township require the repair of
the structure. The estimated cost of the repair is $163,000. The resolution authorizes an
advance of $150,000 from the County’s Long Term Revolving Fund to the Oxford Multi -Lakes
Special Assessment District with an annual interest rate of 5.06% for the repair of the Oxford
Multi-Lakes lake level control structure. All costs of the Repair Project shall be defrayed by
special assessments against privately-owned parcels of land, political subdivisions of the State
and State-owned lands that would benefit by the project and are under the ju risdiction and
control of the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality. The special assessment may be
applied in five annual installments.
The resolution further authorizes the Office of the Drain Commissioner to compute all costs
relating to the Repair Project, prepare a special assessment roll and proceed with a public
hearing on the repair project.
Jacobsen moved to report to the full Board with the recommendation that the resolution
be adopted. Supported by Gosselin.
