The County strategy is to invest in longer term Agencies and Treasuries. Before the
unprecedented rise in short term rates this strategy consistently outpreformed the short term
investments (CDs and High Yeild Savings accounts). The quick rise in rates has led to current
Pool yeild lagging behind short term rates. Next Fiscal Year will be a turning point where the
current investment Pool will become competitive again.

Polly Ann Trail Modernization Design Project
2023 Community Park & Trail Capital Grant
Project Scope
Work with a contractor to develop design and engineering plans for improvements to the Polly Ann Trail within
Oakland County.
Status – In Process
An amendment was made to the original agreement to change the scope of the project. The change of scope
was due to the higher than anticipated engineering design estimates received in response to their RFP. The
revised scope aims to focus on specific areas on the Polly Ann Trail deemed most in need of improvements,
reducing the portion of the trail included in the project from the full 16.9 miles to 4.1 miles of trail from Hosner
Road to Elmwood Street. This section was prioritized based on the existing trail surface condition, the need to
make stormwater improvements and proposed safety enhancements at the roadway crossings. A modified RFP
– based on the amended change of scope – was approved by the Polly Ann Trailway Management Council.
The engineering plans are still on target and the PATMC is working with the MDNR and other funding sources to
proceed with RFPs as needed for the successful completion of the project.

Nine Mile Corridor – Multijurisdictional
Nine Mile Corridor Phase 2 Feasibility Study and Branding
2024 Strategic Partnership Grant
Project Scope
In 2023, Oakland County Parks facilitated (and matched) a grant from SEMCOG to develop a feasibility study for
a Nine Mile Pathway corridor in southern Oakland County. The initial project focused on communities between
I-275 and I-75, and included: Farmington, Farmington Hills, Oak Park, Southfield, Ferndale and Hazel Park. The
study, completed by OHM Advisors, provides a framework for the development of an inter-connected pathway
spanning these six communities. OCP would like to continue the momentum of this project by:
Con�nuing the pathway planning to the western border of the county, adding Novi, Novi Township,
South Lyon and Lyon Township to the plan
Working with all the Nine Mile communi�es to develop a brand and logo for the pathway, so that as
projects come online, they can be designed and signed in a way that reflects coordinated branding for
the corridor. The interac�ve project will include naming the pathway, developing a logo (or logos),
determining applica�on (signage, fixtures) for the en�re county-wide length of the pathway, and
developing a brand style guide for the communi�es.
Con�nuing to u�lize OHM Advisors to support the Nine Mile Pathway project through as-needed grant
research and grant applica�on support, map development and project support.
Status – In Process
The Phase 2 feasibility study is underway and should be completed by the end of the year. The brand and logo
development portion of the project is also underway. OCP has contracted with Crimson and has been holding
meetings with the ten Nine Mile Corridor communities. A Memorandum of Understanding is slated to be
approved by the Oakland County Board of Commissioners on Sept. 19, 2024, and the board chair will appoint
two commissioners to serve on the committee for the project.

Rochester Hills
Innovation Hills Restroom
2024 Strategic Partnership Grant
Project Scope
In partnership with the Oakland County Board of Commissioners, OCP will support the development of
restrooms at the Innovation Hills park in Rochester Hills. Since opening in 2021, the playground at Innovation
Hills has become one of the most popular recreational destinations in Oakland County, drawing an estimated
400,000 visitors annually. The regional draw of the park has forced the city to build an additional rustic parking
lot across the street. Grant funding will facilitate the completion of much needed restroom facilities that will
serve the playground area and enhance the visibility of Oakland County parks to a wide audience.
Status – In Process
The Innovation Hills Park Restroom project is moving along smoothly. The plans are currently being reviewed
internally by the City’s permitting departments for final approval. The construction team has started leveling
and fencing off the construction area. They are hoping to get a foundation permit expedited, so the
construction team can start laying the foundation of the building before the weather starts to get too cold.
Anticipated timeline for completion is Spring 2025.

Royal Oak
Enhancing Public Access to Royal Oak Arboretum
2022 Community Park & Trail Capital Grant
Project Scope
Upgrade 1,300’ of trails within the Arboretum to hard-surface trails (current trail system is not accessible to
people with limited mobility) and install two ADA-compliant benches and an ADA picnic table to encourage
relaxing in the park. The City has also committed to adding two ADA-compliant parking spaces at the trailhead.
Status – In Process
Final design is completed with some new components added since the August 2023 update, including a
maintenance shed and an additional trail connection. The project is being implemented simultaneously with
another grant project to plant 100 trees in the Arboretum, courtesy of the Erb Family Foundation. The
coordination of planning, install elements, resources, etc. has culminated with major groundbreaking the last
week of August (photo above). The initial bid process that took place earlier this year resulted in quotes that
were well above projections. After discussing with several vendors, it came to light that the high costs were
partially due to trying to get the projects on the very busy spring calendar. The projects were rebid with a fall
construction date and they came back within budget so the project is on track to be completed December 2024.
24
Royal Oak (Continued)
Hamer Finch Wilkins Park
2023 Community Park & Trail Capital Grant
Project Scope
Create a garden with picnic tables, pathways, benches, new landscaping and educational components.
Status – Complete
In 2023, Hamer Finch Wilkins Park (formerly Beechwood Park) was remade, creating a peaceful, reflective
garden that tells the story of the City’s early black pioneers, Henry and Elizabeth Hamer. New ADA-compliant
pathways, a seating area and a picnic area – with an accessible picnic table – were constructed. Six trees and
more than 300 perennials were planted, creating beautiful, pollinator-friendly gardens. This fall a bronze
sculpture of Elizabeth Hamer was installed and the City held a ribbon cutting for the park on Sept. 23, 2024.

Southfield
Lahser Woods Park Improvement Project: Dog Park
2023 Community Park & Trail Capital Grant
Project Scope
Bring Southfield residents their first dog park, providing recreational fitness equipment, creating a solar-lit
walking path and installing a renovated gravel parking lot. Phase 1 of the project focuses on the park entrance,
parking lot and dog park.
Status – In Process
Southfield is completing the design phase of the dog park with Hubbel, Roth and Clark. They have met with
stakeholders, Southfield Schools and the Synagogue regarding the project and to discuss the possibility of
adding a paved, connecting walking path and are working on securing additional funding for the pathway.
Construction is slated to begin around September/October with a projected completion timeline of April 2025.
27
Springfield Township
Rotary Park and Mill Pond Park Connecting Pathway
2024 Strategic Partnership Grant
Project Scope
Construction of a boardwalk and pathway connecting Rotary Park and Mill Pond Park now that the Davisburg
Mill Pond Dam has been removed and the new open bottom culvert has been installed. The proposed design
would allow for a new, safe and convenient pathway connecting the two parks and provide the public with
access to the restored Shiawassee River.
Status – In Process

Oakland County Parks and Recreation Commission Agenda Item Memo
Agenda #: E
Department: Administration
From: Melissa Prowse
Subject: Healthy Communities Projects Update & Phasing
INTRODUCTION AND HISTORY
As staff have been working on the design and development of our Healthy Communities parks,
we have come to the conclusion that additional funding is needed to fully complete a few of the
projects to the scope and scale needed to ensure they are impactful, successful projects that
benefit the communities and all Oakland County residents. Specifically, the development of
Red Oaks (Gary McGillivray Play Garden) and Oak Park Woods have designs that cannot be
fully funded with the ARPA and OCPR match funding currently dedicated to the Healthy
Communities plan.
Staff and the design teams have worked to develop phasing plans for these two parks, so that
the initial phase funded through ARPA completes key elements of the projects and ensures
immediate improvements and new recreation amenities. Currently, subsequent phases will be
needed to fully build-out the vision for these parks.
At the meeting staff will provide cost estimates for fully completing these projects, so that the
Commission can consider the potential of funding the remaining improvements with additional
millage revenue should the millage pass on November 5. This would allow one bid process and
one construction project/process for each park and would remove the need to phase
subsequent development at these parks (creating an overall cost savings). If this is something
the Commission would like to consider, staff would come back for full approval at the November
6th Commission meeting.

Subject: Clinton River Trail Maintenance Support
INTRODUCTION AND HISTORY
In July this year a major storm event caused a flooding and 100-foot-long complete washout of
the Clinton River Trail, rendering a portion of the trail un-usable in Rochester. This portion of
the trail has been closed since July with a posted detour that takes pedestrians and bikers onto
roads around the trail.
The Clinton River Trail is one of the most heavily used trails in Oakland County. The
development of the trail was funded in large part by grants. Unfortunately, there is less funding
available for maintenance and repairs of existing trails – especially emergency repairs. The
repair of this large washout is currently estimated at $1.97M, as it requires major excavation and
reinstallation of earthen embankment and culverts to ensure that the trail is secure and stable
into the future.
Oakland County (Economic Development) is working with the city of Rochester to find funding to
complete this project as quickly as possible so the trail can be reopened. As part of our millage
planning, we have been discussing ways in which OCP can better support our regional trails
and water trails in Oakland County. This project may be a way we can provide support to
ensure that these trails remain safe and open for county residents. There is no specific funding
request at this time.

Project Budget
Project Description
Problem Statement
The Buhl Estate was constructed in 1927 and the cast iron drain lines in the basement are original to the building and are
chronically backed up. Camera evaluation in May 2024 revealed rotting pipes with holes throughout the system. Some
areas were blocked and inaccessible to the camera.
Project Scope
Replace the full underground drain infrastructure. This will require breaking up and repouring areas of the concrete
basement floor. Some of the concrete work can be done in-house for a cost savings.
Alternatives
The contractor provided an alternate proposal to replace only the main and the two branch lines for a $14K cost
savings. However, with the floor demolition that needs to happen in either proposal, staff recommends doing
the full replacement. Additionally, the option of doing the concrete in-house will likely bring the project in under
budget.
Do nothing and continue to accrue deferred maintenance would pose a health and safety hazard for users of the
building.
Divestment and removal of facility is not a consideration.

Project Budget
Project Description
Problem Statement
The Red Oaks Golf Clubhouse was constructed in 2004 on land leased from the George W. Kuhn Drainage District (CIP
28-2004 CLUB). The existing asphalt shingle roof is original to the building and at 20 years old is coming to the end of its
lifecycle. The roof has been leaking and repairs made in the past 2 years.
Project Scope
Remove existing roof and replace with new asphalt shingle roof – approximately 4,000 SF.
Project Standards
Building Roof Replacements: Replace building roofs with identification of projects based on expected life cycle, repair
record, and ongoing staff inspections of more than 230 building roofs in the park system. For each roofing project,
prepare a standard conceptual budget that includes options for green roofs and metal roofs and minimizes asphalt
shingle/petroleum-based roofing options. Initial budget estimates for most roofs will be based on metal roof unit costs.
Alternatives
Roof alternatives
o Green roof is not feasible for sloped roof
o A solar roof installation is a potential option as the roof is not shaded. However, it was not considered
due to the limited budget. A solar installation could be considered in the future.
o A standing seam metal roof is a more sustainable option and has a longer warranty – generally 35 years
as opposed to 15-20 years for the asphalt shingle roof. Metal roof estimate of $119,880 exceeds
available budget by $19,880.
o Mechanically fastened metal roof is less sustainable because it requires more maintenance and has a
shorter warranty. May be appropriate for smaller cold storage pole barns and lean-to sheds.
Doing nothing and continuing to accrue deferred maintenance is not feasible because it will result in structural
damage and higher project costs in the future.
Divestment and removal of the facility is not under consideration.

Subject: Fuller Oak Management Services Contract – Addison Oaks
INTRODUCTION AND HISTORY
Over the years, food and beverage services for the Oakland County Parks and Recreation
Commission has had many operational changes relating to how we operate our concessions and
banquet centers. We now operate our own food and beverage services at Springfield Oaks, White
Lake Oaks, Lyon Oaks and Red Oaks Water Park. Fuller Oak Management has a contract with
the County, which commenced on January 1, 2016, to provide food and beverage services at
Addison Oaks and Glen Oaks until December 31, 2025.
At the expiration of the existing Fuller Oak Management Contract, staff would like to extend the
contract for the provision of food and beverage services at Addsion Oaks for an additional 2 years.
This would extend their contract through the end of 2027 at Addison Oaks only. The existing
contract would stay the same with Fuller Oak Management paying the utilities and providing
equipment maintenance fees. There would also be additional revenue shared if they exceed over
$1,500,000.01.
In addition, staff would not like to extend the contract for the provision of food and beverage
services at Glen Oaks. Glen Oaks staff would rent the Banquet Center; thus, allowing guests to
hire a caterer of their choice for their event. The food and beverage services for the golf course
would be managed by park staff.

Re: Director’s Report
DNR’s ORV Improvement Fund
Staff was notified the week of September 9th that we were awarded the $255,000 we applied for this year
from the DNR’s ORV Improvement Fund. The grant will fund major electrical improvements to the park
(which currently has very limited electrical service) to make it more attractive for special events and
rentals, as well as improve the overall park user experience by having easy access to electricity for park
patrons and our vendors. The project will include the provision of 1000 amp service, underground service
lines, two step-down transformers, connection o existing electrical panels and site preparation for future
EV chargers. Special events and park rentals make up approximately half of the ORV Park’s budget, and
most renters bring in generators to power their activities which is a deterrent for some. This improved
service will also allow for year-round, climate-controlled restroom facilities. Work is anticipated to begin
this spring.
Google Translate
While researching other CVT online sales portal interfaces for potential updates to ours, it was discovered
that Google Translate could be integrated. After speaking with a few colleagues at other Parks
departments, we were able to get this up and running on our online sales interface as of 9/13/24. The
Google Translate button on our page now allows all of our sales interface to be translated into 243
different languages for patrons to view.
SAE Baja Competition at Holly Oaks
The SAE Baja is a university student competition organized by the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE).
Each team competes with the ORV vehicles/carts they designed in a variety of events including an
endurance race, maneuverability course, sled pull, hill climb, and acceleration event. Teams also compete
in a variety of static events including design judging, sales presentation, cost report and others. There
were 85 universities from all over the world competing in this event and included teams from as far away
RETURN TO AGENDA
as Brazil and South Korea. In addition to the 85 universities, there were over a thousand spectators that
attended during the event.
This competition is held annually in different locations throughout the country and sites are selected 3
years in advance to plan for these events. Holly Oaks was chosen as a location because of the support
from Tom Zielinski, the organizer and promoter for many of the large public and private events held at
Holly Oaks. The SAE event organizers commented that Holly Oaks was one of the best locations to hold
the event and would like to come back again in the future.
