PUBLIC COMMENT

SHERIFF, PROSECUTING ATTORNEY - FISCAL YEAR 2010 OAKLAND COUNTY NARCOTICS
ENFORCEMENT TEAM (NET) – BYRNE GRANT ACCEPTANCE AND ADDITION OF FORFEITED
VEHICLE AND OPERATING COST
The Sheriff and Prosecuting Attorney have been awarded a grant in the amount of $302,720 by
the Michigan State Police for funding of the Narcotics Enforcement Team (NET). County grant
match is $302,720; the balance of program funding of $112,693 will come from the Sheriff and
Prosecutor Drug Forfeiture Funds, for a total NET Byrne program budget of $718,133. The award
partially funds the continuation of two SR Assistant Prosecutor III positions and one SR Assistant
Prosecutor IV position; plus two SR Sergeant positions, and the creation of one SR Deputy II and
one SR PTNE Office Assistant II position to re-establish previous staffing levels. One forfeited
vehicle will be added to the County fleet and associated operating cost totaling $6,000 will be
funded from the Sheriff’s Drug Forfeiture account. Continuation of this program, including
positions, are contingent upon continued grant funding and Drug Forfeiture Account funding.
Coleman moved the Human Resources Committee Report to the Board with the
recommendation the above referenced resolution be adopted. Supported by Gosselin.
Motion carried unanimously on a roll call vote.
DEFERRED COMPENSATION AND RETIREMENT BOARD MERGER
Oakland County’s retirement programs consist of a Defined Benefit Pension Plan, Defined
Contribution (401a) Plan and Deferred Compensation (457) Plan. An Ad-Hoc Sub-Committee
comprised of the Chairs of the Retirement Board, Deferred Compensation Board and Corporation
Counsel was created to explore the concept of merging the Deferred Compensation and
Retirement Boards. It is proposed to merge the Retirement Board and Deferred Compensation
Board into one new Board. A merger would provide efficiencies and economies for the members
of the current Boards, the Human Resources Department staff and County employees. It is
proposed the new merged Board be comprised of the following individuals:
Board of Commissioners Chairperson or designee
Finance Committee Chairperson or designee
County Treasurer or designee
County Executive or designee
Three elected employee members
One elected retiree member
One citizen member appointed by the new merged Board.
The terms of the elected County officials on the merged Board shall be consistent with their
elected office positions. The elected employee members and the citizen member shall serve four
year terms; the elected retiree member shall serve a two year term. The new Board shall adopt By
Laws to provide a framework for its operation and management. The merger of the Boards will
be effective June 1, 2010 or as soon as administratively feasible thereafter.
Middleton moved approval of the attached suggested resolution. Supported by Coleman.
Motion carried unanimously on a roll call vote.
