ITEM #7
ADDISON OAKS
GRANT AGREEMENT AMENDMENT
Oakland County Parks and Recreation Commission received a grant in
September, 1990 for the acquisition of property adjacent to Addison Oaks.
The original grant application included two parcels of property, an 89.26
acre parcel (the Jeffrey Groehn parcel) and a 44.63 acre parcel (the John
Christopher parcel). During the period that the grant was being processed,
the Christopher parcel was sold and split; thereby negating a potential sale
to Oakland County Parks and Recreation.
The Department of Natural Resources has indicated that we must amend our
present agreement, deleting the Christopher parcel. The purchase of and
reimbursement for the Groehn parcel, acquired in June of 1991, is not
affected by this amendment. A copy of the resolution to amend the grant
agreement is attached.
r
R V (ZOT.TTTTON
WHEREAS, the Oakland County Parks and Recreation Commission accepted
from the Michigan Natural Resources Trust Fund the Addison Oaks Acquisition
Grant, MNRTF 89-002, to acquire 139 acres adjacent to Addison Oaks county
park, which is comprised of two parcels identified as the Jeffrey Groehn
parcel and the John Christopher parcel; and
WHEREAS, the Oakland County Parks and Recreation Commission appro-
priated matching funds and has acquired the 93.4 acre Jeffrey Groehn parcel
identified in the above grant and the grant agreement dated September 1, 1990;
and
WHEREAS, the Oakland County Parks and Recreation Commission has been
notified that the John Christopher parcel is not for sale; and
WHEREAS, the Oakland County Parks and Recreation Commission has been
notified by the Michigan Department of Natural Resources of the need to
amend the above agreement to delete said parcel.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that Oakland County Parks and Recreation
Commission amends the above agreement, deleting the parcel identified
as the John Christopher parcel.

ITEM #8
RADIO COMMUNICATION CHARGES
This is to inform the Commission of the unanticipated increase in
Radio Communication charges for 1992. Specifically, the charges have been
increased from $2,328.38/mo. in 1991 to $9,774.00/mo. for 1992. This is an
annual increase from $27,940 to $117,288 or a total annual increase of
$89,348. It has been explained to staff the increased charges reflect the
costs associated with the 800 MHz County Wide Communication System (e.g.
infrastructure costs and finance costs) which to date is not in operation.
It is the staff's understanding any fee structure associated with the
new communication system was to be recommended by the Radio Communications
Oversight Committee (see attached) chaired by the Director of Program
Evaulation, currently Mr. James Brennan. In discussing this matter with
Mr. Brennan, staff was informed no new fee structure had yet been
established. Mr. Brennan indicated any increase in the fee structure to
date, would have been implemented without the recommendation of this
committee or approval of the Board of Commissioners.
Staff is exploring viable courses of action regarding this matter.
One option is to pursue, with Commission support, rescinding the fee
increase with appropriate refunds forthcoming, until the oversight
committee has made its recommendations and those subsequent recommendations
are approved by the Board of Commissioners. The other option discussed by
staff, if the new fee structure is continued, would be maintain our own
communication system at the old fee structure of $27,940/year and not
participate in the new system.

IN RE: RADIO COMMUNICATIONS - AUTHORIZATION FOR SELECTION OF VENDOR TO DESIGN, CONSTRUCT AND
IMPLEMENT AN 800 MHz COUNTY -WIDE COMMUNICATION SYSTEM
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Mr. Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS the present county radio communications system is plagued with problems including:
inadequate coverage, overcrowded channels forcing the County into three unauthorized usages of
existing frequencies, worn and obsolete equipment, "skip" difficulties and high -risk exposure; and
WHEREAS additional channels in the frequency ranges presently used by the County are not
available in the Detroit area and are unlikely to become available in the foreseeable future; nor is
there any guarantee that the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) would assign such frequencies
to Oakland County if they become available; and
WHEREAS the County, on three separate occasions in the past, has studied these problems
and recommended the complete replacement of the County system with an 800 MHz trunking system,
County Executive/Sheriff's Proposal dated August 31, 1987; County Executive/Sheriff's Proposal dated
January 19, 1988; and Sheriff's Department/Commissioners' Program Evaluation Proposal dated August
4, 1988; and
WHEREAS the County Executive, in anticipation of this situation, acquired a license for
ten 800 MHz channels from the FCC which license has been extended twice and is now overdue for
action by the County of Oakland; and
WHEREAS the County Board of Commissioners, on Miscellaneous Resolution 89135, dated May
25, 1989, and 89349, dated December 14, 1989, created a Radio Communications Oversight Committee and
authorized such committee to hire an independent consultant to conduct a complete needs study, to
recommend the appropriate solution to the radio communications problems, to prepare a "request for
proposal," to solicit proposals from vendors, to analyze such proposals and recommend a contract
award; and
WHEREAS the consultant, RAM Communication Consultants, Inc., after analyzing various
possible options, has concluded that the 800 MHz trunked system is the only feasible solution to the
County's radio communications problems.
WHEREAS the Radio Communications Oversite Committee has reviewed the consultant's report,
obtained input from various user departments and inspected other counties' communication systems,
and concurs in the consultant's conclusion that the 800 MHz trunking system is the appropriate
solution to the County's short and long-term radio communication needs; and
WHEREAS two vendor proposals were received, one from Motorola for an 8-antenna site system
and another from Ericsson -General Electric for a 4-antenna site system; and
WHEREAS after considerable review and analysis of each vendor proposal, the consultant and
the Radio Communications Committee have determined that the Motorola proposal best meets the
County's current and long-range needs and is the "best buy" on a system component basis, and further
recommends an award of contract to Motorola.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners concurs in the
acquisition of the 800 MHz trunking technology for a county -wide radio communications system serving
all county departments and agencies; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the County Executive is authorized to enter into a contract
with Motorola for the construction of an 8-site, 800 MHz system and for the purchase of all related
equipment for a sum not to exceed $5,846,602.50.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners authorizes the Radio
Communications Committee to employ a consultant to assist in the preparation of the contract and
acceptance test procedures and to negotiate with the selected vendor.
Mr. Chairperscn, on behalf of the Public Services Committee, I move the adoption of the
foregoing resolution.

ITEM 19
ELLIS AND ASSOCIATES
WATERFORD OAKS AND RED OAKS WATERPARKS
BACKGROUND
Oakland County Parks and Recreation Commission operates two wave -action pools and
waterslides. Currently, all lifeguards hired by Oakland County must possess a valid American
Red Cross Lifeguarding Certificate. Lifeguards of both wavepools must also have a water test
which utilizes resources of the Oakland County Sheriff's Department Marine Division in
passive and active rescuing of individuals prior to employment.
After meetings with Risk Management and recommendations from Corporation Counsel, legal
counsel and administrative staff, the following changes need to take place:
1. Extensive pre -training for the staff who work at the two wave -action pools and
waterslide.
2. Continued in-service training each week.
The aquatic training is left up to the park supervisor and/or the park manager.
At this time I would like to introduce Ellis and Associates National Pool and Waterpark
Lifeguarding Program and have that program implemented in Oakland County Parks and
Recreation program.
1. E & A National Pool and Waterpark Lifeguard Training Program:
o E & A has a risk management program not just a course
The National Pool and Waterpark Lifeguard Training Program is a comprehensive risk
management program .specifically tailored to your aquatic facility. Unlike community based
non-profit instructional programs that provide a lifeguarding certificate for the mass
population, the NPWLTP program includes a full risk management package:
o Facility design o Insurance verification
o Consultation o Statistical data collection
o Lifeguard training o Assistance with aquatic litigation
o Audits o High risk identification
o E & A train you and continue to support you year around
E & A works with our facility all year providing training for supervisors in the winter,
lifeguard training throughout the spring and summer, audits and consultations through the
summer months, and statistical feedback and analysis in the fall. E & A provide a year-round
risk management program for our facility whether it operates 100 days or 365 days annually.
o E & A write the book every year
The NPWLTP Lifeguard Textbook is rewritten every .single year in response to the
recommendations of supervisors and lifeguards and also in response to the statistical data
gathered during the season. E & A keeps current with information on cervical injuries, legal
precedents, and state of the art lifeguarding techniques.

o Lifeguards are trained for our specific facility
Lifeguards are quickly trained to provide state of the art lifeguard protection for your
facility. This is not a generic course that includes nice to know information about
beaches, lakes, and other facilities. It is designed to train our guards for Oakland County
Parks and Recreation Commission. The course can usually be held on a weekday and
includes:
o Public relations o First responder techniques
o Accident management o Lifeguarding rescue techniques
o Working with difficult patrons o Legal liability
o Personal health & safety concerns o Safety awareness
for the lifeguard o High risk areas
o Victim Identification
o E & A audit your program
One of the great strengths of the E & A program is the unannounced audits during the
summer. E & A is then able to testify to the competency of the program based on the
audits and to vouch for the quality of the program with the insurance carriers.
ADVANTAGES OF THE PROGRAM
1. E & A has a stronger cost benefit to the lifeguards and the total parks and
recreation system. It will give the lifeguards a valid instructional program that is
waterpark related.
2. E & A will not take the place of, but will supplement, the weekly training that
should take place at both Red Oaks and Waterford Oaks Waterparks.
3. Each swimming pool will have the availability of having two trained managers to
teach the instructional program.
4. A unique aspect of the Ellis & Associates' program is a mandatory unannounced
video audit which is conducted three times annually at the pool locations. The
purpose of these audits to to ensure that the lifeguards have CPR and in -water
rescue skills remain acceptable and have not eroded over time. The skills test
documented on video tape can later be used by the agency to evaluate the
effectiveness of their own in-service training program.
S. In recognition of the importance of liability, Ellis & Associates is a leader in
developing aquatic risk management programs for both waterpark and conventional
pools. They have been in existence since 1983 and no Ellis clients to -date have
experienced the patron drownding.
Along with the lifeguard training techniques, the Ellis program stresses the
professional and significant personal responsibility that is required to be a
lifeguard.
6. Oakland County Parks and Recreation Commissions aquatic facilities will be
protected under the Ellis & Associates Aquatic Risk Management umbrella for the
duration of the contract.

Bid Item
Ellis & Associates
Page 3
7. The National Recreation and Park Association officially endorses the Ellis &
Associates National Pool and Waterpark Training Program as a quality education
program that provides personnel with opportunity to enhance overall aquatic safety
skills.
8. With the City of Troy contracting with Ellis, Oakland County Parks and Recreation
Commission will receive a 15% discount this year on the initial client retainer fee.
IMPLEMENTATION OF ELLIS AND ASSOCIATES
1. To implement the Ellis training program, it is recommended that all employees go
through the pre -employment test (American Red Cross Lifeguarding).
2. After hiring, all lifeguards will go through the Ellis program prior to the opening of
the pools. With two waterpark locations and the City of Troy's involvement, there
will be three dates available for lifeguards to participate in the training program.
3. Staff can be certified as Ellis instructors. This would enable staff (managers) to
train new lifeguards.
4. Oakland County Parks and Recreation Commission will continue to have an on-
going training by staff and management.
5. Oakland County Parks and Recreation will pay for American Red Cross Bridge
Over Course which is $20 per candidate. That program will be $25 less than the
training program that Ellis teaches.
6. There will be three unannounced audit visits per year.
COST OF THE PROGRAM
For client - $175.00
This does not discount the 15% which Ellis has mentioned they will give to us this year.
Three audits - $175.00 each = $525.00
American Red Cross Bridge Over - $20.00 per lifeguard X 74 = $1,480.00
*Training books - $14.00 each X 74 = $1,036.00
Total $3,216.00
RECOMMENDATIONS
1. The Oakland County Risk Management has recommended that we sincerely look
into the Ellis & Associate program for our two wave -action pools.
2. Corporation Counsel has indicated through our legal counsel that there is a need
for a stronger training program.
3. It is staff's recommendation to implement a Professional Service Contract with
Ellis and Associates. Ellis and Associates is nationally recognized as an excellent
aquatic training program in all 50 states. They are endorsed by NRPA to facilitate
training of aquatics and to foster professional development to the internal
professional staff. Total cost fot his program will be $4,696.00

CONCRETE STORAGE BINS
GLEN OAKS GOLF COURSE
We have received from Purchasing the following bids for the con-
struction of five 12 f t. wide x 24 f t. long by 6 f t. high concrete
storage bins at Glen Oaks Golf Course:
Bush Brothers $16,967.00
Farmington Hills
LDS Contractors 24,390.00
Keego Harbor
Bids were sent out but not received from Wisel & Wisel, Allied,
McCarthy, and Rosati.
Because of the limited area in our maintenance yard at Glen Oaks
and no other suitable site to store material, we are experiencing con-
tamination of our various types of soil and stone. Also with the close
proximity of the neighbors, they are always complaining of the blowing
sand.
These bins should better organize our yard and eliminate some com-
plaints.
Staff recommends you award this contract to the low bidder, Bush
Brothers, for $16,967.00.
Bush Brothers have completed numerous concrete and asphalt projects
for Oakland County Parks, and we are satisfied with their work.
There are funds budgeted in the 1992 Capital Improvement Projects
Budget for this project.

ITEM #16
TILE REPAIR
RED OAKS WAVE POOL
After last winter we started to have a few ceramic tiles break
away from the rounded back wall of the wave pool at Red Oaks. On further
examination of the wall, we discovered that approximately 208 square
feet of tile is loose from the concrete wall. It is now at the point
where large sections of this ceramic tile could fall away from the wall.
Purchasing bid out the repair of this tile twice and received only
one response, from Boston Tile for $12,130.00.
Boston Tile was the original contractor for the installation of
this ceramic wall (approximately 1,600 square feet).
Staff feels that Boston Tile installed the original tile correctly;
however, with the movement of the concrete that we have experienced
at the Red Oaks Pool, this the failure is not their fault.
Included in the repair of this tile is having the contractor cut
in expansion joints every 10 feet along the length of the wall to take
up some of the movement.
This repair will have to be done in a timely manner, and the bid
stated a completion date of May 15.
Staff recommends awarding this repair to the single bidder, Boston
Tile, for $12,130.00.

SWIMSUITS
Staff received samples of ladies' swimsuits from several companies.
These suits are for the female lifeguards at all of our facilities.
After evaluation for presentation and modesty, the suit from the
company, THE FINALS, of Port Jervis, New York, was selected.
Staff has received numerous complaints on the previous suit. Also,
a change in color for a more visible appearance was requested.
Since this is a single source item, only one bid was received from
the parent company. This price is $5,528.40 for the 12 dozen suits
($38.39 per suit). Two suits are issued to each guard every year.
Staff recommends awarding the purchase to THE FINALS.
Funds for this purchase are contained in each facility's uniform
line item account.

ITEM #19
NAME EMBROIDERY MACHINE
Staff is requesting the purchase of a name embroidery machine for the primary
purpose of putting names on all staff uniforms.
For the past several years we have been providing routered plastic name tags.
This system has had several breakdowns, such as employee forgot to put it on,
left it home, broken, lost, the pins prick, clips fall off, wearing it crooked,
and broken during maintenance job. With the name stitched directly onto the shirt
or jacket, most of these problems will be resolved.
This function will be handled in house without any staff increase. The pro-
cess will be as quick, if not quicker, and easier than using the current engraving
machine.
Staff will also be able to put the logo on all of our shirts and jackets
at a considerable savings to the purchase of those uniforms.
In addition to resolving several problems with the plastic name tags, this
process will greatly improve the appearance of our employees' uniforms.
Samples of this process will be available at the Commission meeting.
Bids received for the purchase of this machine are as follows:
Julie Ann Fabrics $7,435.35
Cadillac, MI
Lowery Sewing
Warsaw, IN
7,496.00
Sewing Machine Exchange 7,995.00
Troy, MI
Staff concurs with Purchasing's recommendation to purchase from the low bid-
der, Julie Ann Fabrics, for $7,435.35. Delivery time is stated as three weeks.
Funds for this purchase will come from the 1992 Contingency fund or the Opera-
ting Equipment Surplus, if available.

CONGRATULATIONS! It is my pleasure to tell you that your grant application
has been fully awarded in the amount of $2,000. The reviewers asked that
I use the grant as an example of one well -written when conducting grants
workshops (deleting names, etc.). Please convey this praise to Jim.
The reviewers also felt that your project, being countywide, would answer
to our desire to reach the most people and the greatest area in Oakland
County. They hoped that you would make extra effort to include senior
centers and homes, and very much liked the idea of family -oriented enter-
tainment.
Within a few days, we will be sending additional materials to you in order
that your grant can be processed.

being presented in February of 1991. Initial pi_ l .c,:.ty was sent to :,a;cia::d ".c tools
via a mailing, in an effort to notify schools in the counl�y of iti,iq
new program opportunity. A fee structure was est4hl:.�;hsd a.;; follo:as:
Off -site Appointments: $100.00 for first program
$40.00 for each additional program
($25.00 discount coupon was offered)

The numbers above reflect a very successful first year for Starlab. If appointments
simply remain at a steady level for 1992 & 93 - Starlab would easily pay for
itself by the end of the third year. Current projections for 192 look extremely
promising with 7 requests for 26 programs scheduled as of 1/17/92. Plans are
in the works to increase publicity this year and hopefully groups that we serviced
in 1991 will invite us back. Overall the future looks bright for this unique
teaching tool. The staff plans to work towards using the unit to its fullest
and to continue developing innovative programs that will bring the wonder of
the night sky to the residents of Oakland County.

It has been brought to my attention through discussions with county adminis-
trators, as well as through the media, that the Parks and Recreation Commission
refused to cooperate with the county in agreeing to place new radio towers on
parks grounds.
In reviewing this matter from the time I was contacted by members of the
Oversight Committee, I am at a loss as to how this determination was arrived at.
Initial discussions did take place in the spring of 1991 on situating two
of the radio towers at Addison Oaks and Independence Oaks County Parks. This
was the first time that I learned the parks were being considered. I indicated
then the original recommendation of the placement of the towers would not be our
first choice and provided additional optional sites at each of the parks. In
addition, given the parks were purchased with state and federal grant monies,
I indicated it would be necessary to determine if there would be any restrictions
precluding the placement of the towers in the parks.
I also mentioned at that time that I would be discussing this matter fully
with the Parks and Recreation Commission for their recommendation and subsequent
direction. The Committee was then informed of the Commission's response that
they would prefer sites outside the park system be explored if at all feasible,
but they would be amenable to further discussion and negotiation on this matter.
Several months passed with no further contact. I assumed alternative sites
had been secured and the park sites no longer needed. Then in the latter part
of 1991 I began receiving feedback the 800 MHz radio communications system was
being delayed and its cost escalating because the parks refused to allow towers
to be placed on park land.

I would like at this time to clear up this misunderstanding and state the
Parks and Recreation Commission at no time officially indicated the radio towers
could not be situated in the parks. I would hope this communication would dispel
the notion the Parks and Recreation Commission would in any way inhibit the estab-
lishment of the radio system through any lack of cooperation. I would be more
than willing to discuss this matter fully at one of your committee meetings.

SUBJECT: County Policy - American -Made Products

PURCHASING DIVISION
Joseph M. Hylla, Manager
The question has been raised regarding policy on American -made products.
The County of Oakland, as well as the Purchasing Division, have established
a policy of no bid preference for any groups or individual. It has long
been the policy of Purchasing to treat all vendors equally and fairly; and
not give special consideration to any group or product as this is contrary
to open & competative bidding practices.
Should you have any further questions, please contact my office.
