ITEM #9 ROAD GRADING AND CHLORIDE DUST CONTROL FOR ADDISON, GROVELAND, INDEPENDENCE, LYON, ROSE, SPRINGFIELD AND WATERFORD OAKS The Road Commission for Oakland County has been contracted by parks staff to grade and chloride park roadways on an annual basis. The 1997-98 annual cost for chloride spread on park roads for the aforementioned parks is $30,000. The first half billing dated July 31, 1998 of $15,000 has been presented for payment. The Road Commission for Oakland County provided the same chloride and grading services for these parks in 1997 at a total cost of $29,900. This billing will be divided among the seven parks according to a percentage formula based upon the previous year grading and chloriding services. This expense is budgeted in each parks grounds maintenance line account. 9-1 *** INVOICE *** a ROAD COMMISSION FOR OAKLAND COUNTRY 31001 LASHER ROAD BEVERLY HILLS, MI. 48025 lY' OAKLAND COUNTY PARKS AND REC INVOICE NUMBER 07078026 ATT ACCOUNTS PAYABLE DATE 07/31/1998 2800 WATKINS LK.

Parks operations staff at Addison Oaks requests approval for the purchase of three Aire- Oz water aerators to be used in the sewage waste treatment system at the park. One unit will be installed this Fall and the remaining two units when the sewage lagoon system is expanded in the next year or two. The same aerator operating the sewage lagoon for the past six years was purchased at the same unit price of $4,325.00. These aerators are new equipment items and are expected to provide a minimum of 8 to 10 years of service with a regular preventative maintenance program in place. Bids were received as follows: ■ Aeration Industries $15,555.00 Minneapolis, MN ■ Century Rain -Aid Did not meet specs Madison Hts, MI ■ Aeromix $15,933.75 Minneapolis, MN ■ Aquamaster No Response Heil, WS ■ Clean -Flo No Response Algonac, MI ■ Aquatics Unlimited No Response Toledo, OH Staff and Purchasing recommends awarding this bid to Aeration Industries of Minneapolis, MN in the amount of $15,555.00.

The road paving project consists of some 2,671 In. ft. of 22-foot wide asphalt from the contact station west, then south to the swimming area parking, and north to the nature center. The bike/trail system begins at the entrance to the park paralleling the road until it reaches the Trailside shelter, then it goes west to the lake, south to the boathouse, north to Trailside Shelter, west connecting with the existing trail around the lake, and then west to the nature center. There were two alternates included in this bid. Alt. 1 is the construction of a gravel access drive and parking area for the new organizational camping to the west of the contact station, and Alt. 2 is the expansion of the Hidden Beach parking lot.

ITEM #12 BBDO CONTRACT EXTENSION Staff requests the extension of the marketing communications contract with BBDO Advertising for the next three budget years. (The current contract expires Sept. 30, 1998.) A millage public information program will begin in 1999. BBDO is well versed in the focus, direction and audiences for Oakland County Parks. In order to maintain a consistent message, staff requests continuation of the contract through 2000-2001. The agency can assist with campaign information, a re-election voter survey, direct mail pieces, gaining editorial support and other areas. The fee is $2,900 per month for a minimum of 30 hours per month. This cost has remained the same since 1997. All fees for placement of advertising are waived. Funds have been allocated in the 1998-99 Public Communications Budget for the first year of the contract. BBDO has worked successfully with Oakland County Parks since 1993. Each year the agency provides a summary of service which outlines a return on investment for funds allocated to advertising and promotion projects coordinated by the firm.

The most significant change has been in the clubhouse and associated site work such as parking, cart storage, and utilities. The roads have also been modified to include some boulevarding and paving. The consultants Beckett and Raeder Inc. (BRI) agreed to absorb the initial fee for increasing the clubhouse from 5,000 sq. ft. to 10,000 sq. ft. However, continued modifications of this facility (bringing the total square footage of the clubhouse to 16,400, added parking, expanded utilities and required cart storage) they feel they can no longer meet the program for this project based on their present fee of $169,000. The estimated cost for this project has almost tripled from approximately $3,000,000 to almost $8,000,000, which does not include the cost for the golf course, which is estimated at around $4,000,000. Staff has met with Beckett and Raeder Inc. on several occasions to discuss this situation and come to what we perceive to be an equitable fee for this proposed work. They proposed a total design/engineering fee of a not to exceed cost of $392,978.40, which includes site visits and contract administration. This amounts to a 4.95% fee. This also includes the kitchen consultant's fee, which is normally an extra cost to the project. Attached is an explanation of the proposed revised fee. I have also included for your information the consultants fees for some previous projects for comparison. The consultant and staff will be making a presentation to resolve this problem so that we can continue to move forward on this project. 13-1 w w Consuitin Firm Fee Com arison Project Cost Site-- vi-SAS F%,rm 8% limited site visits Proect HEPY Waterford Oaks 8% limited site visits 'Fridge' Giffels Hoyem Basso Waterford Oaks go fo Included Waterpark Renovation JGA Glen Oaks Expansion 7 8% included Clubhouse Powell Glen Oaks Site Work Clubhouse contract Administration minimal minimal Included minimal TEL: Rug 26'98 1?:08 No.009 P.02 Lyon Oaks Day Use Pork Oakland County Park system August 25,1998 Explanation of Proposed Revised Fee Basis of Original Fee (Includes Construction Administration) Construction Budget Percentage Fee .

The implementation of, and change over to, the new computerized Human Resource and Financial Information System (HRFIS) will have been in place for approximately one year. Closing for the 1998 fiscal year will commence in October. The HRFIS is still presenting numerous challenges for staff that are currently being worked on, but will complicate the closing process. Consequently, staff is recommending extension of the contract for Janz & Knight for one year to perform the annual audit for 1998; this will help maintain stability and consistency until the new HRFIS is fully understood and in place. Janz & Knight has agreed to perform the audit for $13,500. (See attached agreement.) 16-1 J A N Z & K N I G H T A PROFESSIONAL LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY FREDERICK C.

CARNEY Oakland County Parks and Recreation Commission 2800 Watkins Lake Road Waterford, Michigan 48328 Dear Members of the Commission: MEMBERS AMERICAN INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS MICHIGAN ASSOCIATION OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS August 11, 1998 We are pleased to confirm our understanding of the engagement with the Oakland County Parks and Recreation Commission, which covers the following: A. Audit of the General Purpose Financial Statements for the year ending September 30, 1998 for purposes of expressing an opinion and preparation of our report thereon; B. Preparation of a letter of Comments and Recommendations ap- plicable to the audits in A above; C. Meeting to review the audit reports (preliminary) and related matters; D. Consultation regarding completion of the above and other related accounting, administrative and reporting matters (including response to periodic phone calls from your office for assistance) . Our audit will be made in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, and will include tests of the accounting records of the Commission and other procedures we consider necessary to enable us to express an unqualified opinion that the financial statements are fairly presented, in all material respects, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles and to report on the Commission's compliance with laws and regulations and its internal controls. If our opinion is other than unqualified, we will fully discuss the reasons with you in advance. Our procedures will include tests of documentary evidence supporting the transactions recorded in the accounts, and may include tests of the physical existence of inventories, and direct confirmation of receivables and certain other assets and liabilities by correspondence with selected individuals, creditors, and financial in- stitutions. We will request written representations from your attorneys as part of the engagement, and they may bill you for responding to this inquiry. At the conclusion of our audit, we will also request certain written representations from you about the financial statements and related matters. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements; therefore, our audit will involve judgment about 1.6-3 Oakland County Parks and Recreation Commission August 11, 1998 Page Two the number of transactions to be examined and the areas to be tested. Also, we will plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. However, because of the concept of reasonable assurance and because we will not perform a detailed examination of all transactions, there is a risk that material errors, irregularities, or illegal acts, including fraud or defalcations, may exist and not be detected by us. We will advise you, however, of any matters of that nature that come to our attention. We understand that you will provide us with the basic information required for our audit and that you are responsible for the accuracy and completeness of that information. We will advise you about appropriate accounting principles and their application and will assist in the preparation of your financial statements, but the responsibility for the financial statements remains with you. This responsibility includes the maintenance of adequate records and related internal control structure policies and procedures, the selection and application of accounting principles, and the safeguarding of assets. We understand that your employees will type all cash or other confirmations we request and will locate any invoices selected by us for testing. Our fees will be determined by the hours necessary to complete the foregoing, such hours to be extended at the hourly rates applicable to our staff assigned to this engagement. Accordingly, in connection with this engagement the fee, on a not to exceed basis, for the year ending September 30, 1998 is $13,500.00. If we encounter situations that were not foreseen in the foregoing, which would increase the time required, we will discuss these matters with you before proceeding. If we are asked to complete accounting records, supporting schedules and/or reconciliations, such non -audit services will be billed separately on an hourly basis. We appreciate the opportunity to be of service to the Commission and believe this letter accurately summarizes the significant terms of our engagement. If you have any questions, please let us know. If you agree with the terms of our engagement as described in this letter, please sign the enclosed copy and return it to us.

I believe that the discussions were fruitful and provided a solid foundation of understanding for both parties. However, after thoughtful consideration, the Nature Center Steering Committee has determined that the Orion Oaks park site would not be feasible due to a number of factors including costly development of the site, the road approach, utility proximity, concerns with the "master plan", and questions of operational control. We have concluded that it is in the best interest of the community to move forward with a Nature Center to be located on the Webber property which will allow for minimal site development costs, increased proximity to our current Nature Center, and primary operational control by the district. Again, a special thank you to you and your staff for your assistance in making our dream become a reality!

He has indicated to me, based upon his conversations with the MDEQ, that this matter has been placed on the back burner. He states that individuals within the MDEQ have informed him that the SOCCRA matter is not a high priority item. Mr. Olson believes this is the case because all of the remediation has been completed at the SOCCRA site, the ball diamond and residential yards which were implicated by this action. He also has been told that the MDEQ is satisfied with the cap currently in existence on the Red Oaks portion of the site, and that the MDEQ would not be requiring any more remediation at Red Oaks. Of course, if this is true, then Oakland County stands in a much better position than previously believed. However, it is still believed that the MDEQ would want some type of operating agreement such as those discussed in the past. Until the MDEQ takes the next step in this matter, we can expect that it will remain somewhat dormant. I will plan on keeping my file open at least into the foreseeable future.
