DOHERTY EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR September 15, 1971 Parks & Recreation Commission Oakland County 2800 Watkins Lake Road Pontiac, Michigan Dear Commissioners: AREA CODE 313 332-1101 332-2300 The Board of the Pontiac Urban Coalition wants to thank you for your generous support of the Oakland County All -Star Basketball Clinic. This year's summer recreation and employment programs for the youth of Pontiac are credited by city officials and the Pontiac Police Department with having achieved outstanding success in their efforts at providing meaningful outlets for youthful energies. Of particular significance is the effort put forth by the Russell brothers and their teammates in sponsoring, organizing, and manag- ing the basketball program for hundreds of Pontiac youths. It was your support which enabled these young men to do such an outstanding job. The Pontiac community is appreciative of your help. Sincerely, David Ja Dorerty Executive Director DJD: jv BOARD MEMBERS DANIEL T. MURPHY CHAIRMAN ROBERT E. LILLY VICE CHAIRMAN GEORGE J.

JOACHIM, P.E. DIRECTOR T. D. DZIURMAN, P.E. CHIEF ENGINEER FACILITIES ENGINEERING DIVISION The Facilities Engineering Division of the County Department of Facilities and Operations is available to assist your Commission on your park development program. Our office consists of: (1) Five Civil Engineers, (2) Two Mechanical Engineers, (3) One Architect, (4) Two Engineering Aides, and (5) Two Construction Inspectors. All the engineers, except one, are registered by the State of Michigan and are experienced in all phases of site development and building construction. Two of the engineers were also former employees of the Huron -Clinton Metropolitan Authority and have extensive experience in park development design. Our organization now provides engineering services for all general County building projects, Service Center utility projects, and airport projects. These services include planning, actual design or design coordination with outside consultants, and construction supervision. Besides the general County projects, we also provide engineering assistance to Oakland Schools and the County Road Commission (building renovation projects). The extent of services provided depends on the needs of the particular project or organization, and we believe our working relationship with our clients (other County agencies and departments) has always been excellent. Our relationship with your staff on the Youth Activities Complex can be used as a reference on the type of service we provide. It is my understanding that presently your immediate needs are in the construction supervision area. Our Construction Section is headed by Mr, Frank Doornweerd, a registered civil engineer. Mr. Doornweerd has over 17 years experience in construction and has worked for a large contractor as chief field engineer, S. S. Kresge Company as construction superintendent, Cunningham- Oakland County Parks and -2- December 16, 1971 Recreation Commission Limp Corporation as a project engineer, and Chrysler Realty Corporation as a project engineer. Mr. Doornweerd is assisted by two construction inspectors, Mr. Everett Mero with over ten years construction experience with the County, and Mr. Ray Knight with over three years actual working experience and who is also within ten hours of completing the requirements for a degree in architecture. The other staff members of our Division, of course, are always available to assist Mr. Doornweerd on specific detailed problems relating to architectural, civil, mechanical, structural, or electrical design. Our office has also established a small quality control and testing laboratory, and can check soil com- paction and concrete quality during construction. If desired our Construction Section could start providing the necessary construction supervision on your projects immediately. The extent of services provided and time spent will again depend on your needs and the status of each project. Before starting any work, a coordinator from your Commission or staff should be appointed as our contact person to allow us to establish in detail what services are desired at this time. Also, if desired we can prepare monthly progress reports for each project covering in summary form or in detail the current status of each project. These can be mailed to all Commission members or presented at a monthly meeting of your Commission. Mr. Richardson of your Commission can serve as a reference on the progress reports distributed by our office. (Also, our construction inspectors prepare daily or job visit, hand-written reports which are kept in our files for later reference information.) Photographs of the construction are also taken on a periodical basis to show material or workmanship of the project. The cost of our services can be done on a payroll basis, which would be the employee's salary rate (standard County classification rates) plus a percentage to cover the supporting overhead of the Department and Division. The exact percentage to be used as the factor is being calculated by our Department's Administrative Section at this time, but it would be approximately 1.5 times the employee's rate. Finally it is not our intent to assign any employee full-time to this work, and the number of hours involved again would depend on the needs of the project or your Commission.

GDelfflewlett Ft Luckenbach Inc December 17, 1971 Oakland County Board of Auditors Parks and Recreation Commission 2800 Watkins Lake Road Pontiac, Michigan 48058 Re: Park Shelter Building Job No. 71- 11 Gentlemen: Within, the terms of our Agreement with the Commission field representation at the construction site is provided for and will continue as circumstances dictate. Since this project has advanced beyond 5010 completion, it is our opinion that daily supervision is not necessary. Should, however, conditions arise which necessitate Additional Services, we are prepared to render these services on the basis of our Agreement, i.e. two (2) times Direct Personnel Expense. We trust we have been of service to you in this instance and we are prepared to aid and assist you at your request.
