COMMITTEE REPORT TO BOARD
Resolution #2024-4284
Motion to adopt the Interlocal Agreement and Grant Awards for the Main Street Oakland County
Placemaking and Public Spaces Program.
ITEM CATEGORY SPONSORED BY
Interlocal Agreement Yolanda Smith Charles
INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND
In December 2023 the Board of Commissioners appropriated $5 million of American Rescue Plan
Act – Local Fiscal Recovery Funds for the purpose of establishing the Main Street Oakland County
(MSOC) Placemaking and Public Spaces Program. The lack of adequate public gathering spaces
that allowed for ample social distancing, and the cancelation of events and farmers markets and
festivals amplified the decline in revenue to small businesses. The placemaking and public spaces
program will improve and expand public gathering spaces should social distancing be required
again in the future. The program will fund transformative improvements that will add positive
financial value to the community and local businesses.
The Economic Development Department received grant applications from 14 MSOC program
communities. The 14 communities are Berkley, Farmington, Ferndale, Hazel Park, Holly, Lake
Orion, Lathrup Village, Madison Heights, Oak Park, Ortonville, Oxford, Rochester, South Lyon and
Wixom.
Program communities receiving grant funding submitted detailed project information including:
budget, project description, letters of support, committed funding, plans, impact on adjacent
properties, project management experience, proposed programed use of the space, and future
maintenance plans.
The Main Street Oakland County Placemaking and Public Spaces Program will allow for the
implementation of quality placemaking projects that reinforce the county’s strategic priorities of
thriving and inclusive economies, healthy communities, and support of downtown development and
small business.
The total budget for the 14 projects is $14,298,446.97, with Oakland County providing
$4,688,238.49 and the communities contributing $9,610,208.48. Oakland County’s contribution
does not exceed 40 percent of any individual project.
POLICY ANALYSIS
Resolution #2023-3615 _ 23-164 was approved December 7, 2023 and authorized $5 million in
ARPA funds for the Main Street Oakland County Placemaking and Public Spaces Program. This is
a request to approve the template interlocal agreement for execution of the grant awards, and the
distribution of the grant funds to the 14 applicant communities and projects as identified in Schedule
B.

PLACEMAKING AND PUBLIC SPACES PROGRAM AGREEMENT FOR LOCAL FISCAL
RECOVERY FUND DISTRIBUTION BETWEEN
OAKLAND COUNTY AND
[Insert Public Body]
This Agreement (the "Agreement") is made between Oakland County, a Municipal and Constitutional
Corporation, 1200 North Telegraph Road, Pontiac, Michigan 48341 ("County"), and the [Insert Public
Body] ("Public Body") [Insert Public Body Address]. County and Public Body may be referred to
individually as a “Party” and jointly as "Parties". Notwithstanding any language to the contrary in the
Agreement, Public Body is a grantee of the funds it received under the Agreement. Public Body shall
comply with all requirements in the Agreement regardless of its classification as a grantee.
PURPOSE OF AGREEMENT. On March 11, 2021, the President of the United States signed the
American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (“ARPA”) into law. Section 9901 of ARPA amended Title VI of the
Social Security Act to add section 603, which establishes the Coronavirus Local Fiscal Recovery Fund.
Oakland County has been allocated $244,270,949 in Local Fiscal Recovery Fund (“LFRF”) dollars under
ARPA.
The United States Department of Treasury has issued an interim final rule, and other guidance for qualified
uses of LFRF. Those qualified uses include supporting eligible investments in public health expenditures,
addressing negative economic impacts caused by the public health emergency, replacing lost public sector
revenue, providing premium pay for essential workers, and investing in water, sewer and broadband
infrastructure. The County has determined that the distribution of funds in accordance with this
Agreement is a qualified use of LFRF funds pursuant to the interim rule and other applicable Department
of Treasury guidance.
Placemaking creates quality places essential to dynamic and vibrant communities. Assistance with
Placemaking plans will provide economic benefits to the Public Body and the County.
On ________, 202_, in Miscellaneous Resolution # , the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
authorized an appropriation in the amount of Five Million $5,000,000 dollars from the American Rescue
Plan Act , Local Fiscal Recovery Funds, for the Main Street Oakland County Placemaking and Public
Services Program to combat the negative economic impacts still lingering in our communities as a result
of the COVID-19 pandemic. This Agreement is funded through that program.
County and Public Body enter into this Agreement pursuant to the Urban Cooperation Act of 1967, 1967

funding under this Agreement. Public Body shall promptly notify County, in writing, of the
occurrence of any event or any material change in circumstances which would make any Public
Body representation or information untrue or incorrect or otherwise impair Public Body’s
ability to fulfill its obligations under this Agreement.
5.2 Public Body will comply with any federal, state, or local public health orders or mitigation
recommendations regarding the COVID-19 pandemic which are in effect as of the date this

Page 5 of 10
except if authorized by law. Public Body shall promptly notify County if it receives insurance
proceeds or other disaster assistance (public or private) that duplicates the funding received
under this Agreement. Grant funds may not be used to cover expenses that were reimbursed
by insurance.
5.4 Public Body shall not carry out any activities under this Agreement that results in a prohibited
duplication of benefits as defined by Section 312 of the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and

Assistance Act (42 U.S.C. 5155). If the Public Body receives duplicate benefits from another
source for projects related to this disaster, the Public Body must refund the benefits provided
by the County to the County. Duplication of benefits occurs when Federal financial assistance
is provided to a person or entity through a program to address losses resulting from a Federally-
declared emergency or disaster, and the person or entity has received (or would receive, by
acting reasonably to obtain available assistance) financial assistance for the same costs from
any other source (including insurance), and the total amount received exceeds the total need
for those costs.
5.5 Public Body shall use all grant funds it receives under this Agreement by September 30, 2026.
Any grant funds not used by that date must be returned to County.

fails to otherwise comply with the requirements of this Agreement. In the event County later
determines the information Public Body provided in conjunction with this Agreement, or that Public
Body was ineligible for the grant funds, or that Public Body’s use of the grant funds following receipt
was contrary to this Agreement, Public Body agrees to repay the grant funds to County in full.
County further retains all rights and remedies allowed in law or equity, including seeking payment
of its reasonable costs and expenses incurred enforcing its rights and remedies.
7. TAX LIABILITY. County and Public Body agree that to the extent that any part of the
aforementioned funds are deemed to be taxable, that Public Body agrees to be fully responsible for
the payment of any taxes, including withholding payments, social security, or other funds which are
required to be withheld. Public Body agrees to provide County with all information and cooperation
necessary to execute a completed 1099-G form; which County will file with the United States
Internal Revenue Service. Public Body acknowledges that Public Body will consult with a tax
professional regarding the tax implications, if any, of the grant funds, and/or hereby waives the
option to do so. Public Body further agrees to indemnify and hold County harmless for the payment
of any tax or withholding payments, including any penalty assessed it may owe under this
Agreement.
