MISCELLANEOUS RESOLUTION #11021

IN RE: BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS – SUPPORT FOR CREATING A REGIONAL WATER AND
SEWER DISTRICT
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
Commissioners Minutes Continued. January 20, 2011
54
WHEREAS the governance of public institutions should be based on the guiding principles of integrity,
legitimacy, fiduciary responsibility, accountability, as well as fair and equitable representation; and
WHEREAS a Michigan House Select Committee conducted an extensive study of the Detroit Water and
Sewerage Department, including examining 13 municipal water systems across the country and based, in
part, on those findings legislation has been proposed in the State of Michigan to establish a more
representative governance structure for a regional water and sewer district and a regional board that
represents an eight county area; and
WHEREAS currently the Detroit Water Board is composed of seven members, appointed by the Mayor of
the City of Detroit, that includes four Detroit representatives and one member each from Oakland, Wayne
and Macomb Counties; and
WHEREAS the Detroit Water and Sewerage Department serves 126 suburban communities in eight
counties, with more than 75% of its 4.3 million water customers residing outside of Detroit; and
WHEREAS House Bill 4112 has been introduced – the Regional Water Quality Authority Act – that
proposes to keep ownership of the Detroit Water and Sewerage system with the City of Detroit, but would
transfer decision making to an Executive Committee that is elected by the Authority, which is comprised
of 126 community customers, with the City of Detroit being designated as a permanent member; and
WHEREAS HB 4112 provides that the nine (9) member Executive Committee will be composed of
mayors and township supervisors selected from the 126 member Authority, with each serving a two (2)
year term; and
WHEREAS HB 4112 creates an Executive Director position that reports directly to the Executive
Committee. The Executive Director will be in charge of handling the day-to-day operations with oversight
by the Executive Committee; and
WHEREAS HB 4112 provides that the Executive Committee will control the bidding and contracting
process, adopt budgets, establish rates and fees, and determine policies of the Authority; and
WHEREAS HB 4112 provides that the Executive Committee may borrow money and issue bonds to
finance projects for a period of up to fifty (50) years; and
WHEREAS HB 4112 provides that all current labor contracts will be honored by the Authority; and
WHEREAS a Detroit regional water and sewer district, with a regional board that provides fair and
equitable representation for all of the consumers within the regional, would provide a governance
structure that provides appropriate oversight, greater accountability, cost savings, transparency and
efficiencies for all of the rate payers within the region.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED THAT the Oakland County Board of Commissioners support
House Bill 4112 - the Regional Water Quality Authority Act – and the creation a Detroit regional water and
sewer district Authority, with a nine (9) member Executive Committee and Executive Director, and urges
the Michigan Legislature to enact such legislation and the Governor to enact this legislation.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED THAT copies of this adopted resolution be forwarded to the Governor of
the State of Michigan, the Oakland County delegation to the state legislature, Representative Kurt Heise,
Oakland County Water Resource Commissioner John P. McCulloch, the Mayor of the City of Detroit, the
Michigan Association of Counties, the Michigan Municipal League and Oakland County’s legislative
lobbyists.
