IN RE: OPPOSITION TO PROPOSED FORMATION OF NEW LIBRARY COOPERATIVE
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Mr. Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS all of the communities in Oakland County with the exception of Troy and Royal Oak
Township are members of the Wayne Oakland Library Federation, which is a library cooperative
consisting of over 60 public libraries in Wayne and Oakland County and which cooperative makes
available to over 1.5 million people the services and use of facilities and the right to borrow
books from all member libraries; and
WHEREAS a proposal is being circulated for the formation of a new library cooperative to
be known as Metropolitan Network and which is intended to service some of the members of the Wayne
Oakland Library Federation and will exclude other members; and
WHEREAS this proposed new library cooperative is not in the best interests of public
library users in Oakland County; and
WHEREAS the new library cooperative will close libraries to many of our citizens and will
reduce the effectiveness and officiary of the Wayne Oakland Library Federation.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners opposes the
formation of a new library cooperative and urges the various member libraries of Wayne Oakland
Library Federation to work together to strengthen the present cooperative rather than work to
dissolve it or to break it apart.
Mr. Chairperson, I move adoption of the foregoing resolution.
Dennis M. Aaron, Commissioner District #I9

IN RE: EXECUTIVE OFFICE BUILDING - RENAME DANIEL T. MURPHY EXECUTIVE OFFICE BUILDING
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Mr. Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS Daniel T. Murphy joined the Oakland County government team more than 40 years ago;
and
WHEREAS he served as the County Clerk/Register of Deeds from 1956-63 and the Chairman of
the Board of Auditors from 1964-74; and
WHEREAS Mr. Murphy was elected Oakland County's first executive in November 1974 and has
been re-elected four times; and
WHEREAS Daniel T. Murphy was Michigan's first elected County Executive and has been a role
model for other county executives, both inside the state and nationally; and
WHEREAS as County Executive, Mr, Murphy has always put the needs of the public ahead of
politics; and
WHEREAS his commitment to his "county family" has been so strong that he takes pride
in--but, not credit for--his accomplishments of helping to create a county parks system, initiating
preventative health programs - including a cancer detection program, - instituting a tornado siren
alert system, and developing an Economic Development Department to meet the changing needs of our
community; and
WHEREAS County Executive Murphy, a modest man, with a huge heart and integrity to match,
had the foresight to "reuse" the old County Hospital Building and convert it into the Executive
Office Building in 1978; and
WHEREAS the Executive Office Building is open to the public to view the works of Michigan
artists displayed in the galleria corridor; and
WHEREAS it seems appropriate that Mr. Murphy's long and successful tenure as Oakland
County Executive is concluding in 1992, and he deserves special recognition.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners rename the
Executive Office Building as the Daniel T. Murphy Executive Office Building, and have a suitable
sign erected on the building so that all who pass through its doors will be reminded of the great
man who loves this county, its residents and all its beauty.
