TRANSFER OF ADOLESCENT DAY TREATMENT SERVICES
To the Oakland County hoard of Commissioners
Mr. Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS expansion of Community Mental Health Day Treatment services onally
disturbed adolesceatt was funded by the state and authorized by the Oakland -.ad of
Commissioners in 1987, to serve 40 more citizens beyond the 60 who were the
program; and
WHEREAS the program expansion was implemented through a contract wL 1) ..:h8rAs
Children's Services, although the existing Day Treatment program was operated directly by Community
Mental Health, witn County employees; and
WHEREAS this divided arrangement for provision of services has necessitated duplication in
administration and supervision of the services between Community Mental Health staff and staff of
The Orchards, with some ambiguity in lines of authority and relationships with local school
districts; and
WHEREAS the Community Mental Health Services Board has accordingly recommended that
responsibility for the contractual portion of the Day Treatment program be transferred to the
Board's direct operation; and
WHEREAS the transfer is supported equally by The Orchards Children's Services, for the
same reasons above stated; and
WHEREAS this change would necessitate creation of four new Mental Health Clinician and 1.5
Typist positions in Community Mental Health, but the smell incremental cost associated with transfer
of the responsibility would be entirely offset through increased Medicaid revenue to the program,
with no additional County dollars required;
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED. that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners approves
transfer of responsibility for The Orchards Children's Services portion of Child/Adolescent Day
Treatment Services to direct Community Mental Health operation, as recommended by the Community

Commissioners Minutes Continued. December 1, 1988 420
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the covenants of each other, the
parties hereto agree as follows:
1. All terms in this Amendment shall have the same meanings as provided in the Primary
Contract, unless specifically indicated otherwise.
2. Various exhibits attached to the Primary Contract have required revision, and the
parties hereto agree that such exhibits as are attached to this Amendment shall represent the final
and effective exhibits setting out the parties agreement.
3. Section 4 of the Primary Contract shall be supplemented by the addition of the
following language, immediately following the single paragraph making up that Section and
continuing that paragraph, as follows:
"The parties shall be obligated to participate in the financing of the
Facilities and shall be primarily liable for payments due to retire bonds
for the construction of all segments of the Facilities or cash payments
for such construction until all such segments are financed, constructed
and placed in service, even if federal grant funds are not available.
The parties hereto agree that in the event that federal grants for any
portion of the Facilities are not available for any reason whatsoever,
then all Local Units, Wayne and Oakland must pay to construct the com-
plete Facilities in accordance with the applicable allocations of cost
set forth in the Exhibits attached hereto and in accordance with the
time schedules for construction of the Facilities as contemplated by
this contract."
4. The contracts for construction of the Facilities shall specify completion dates pres-
ently estimated to be as follows:
Segment 1 June, 1992
Segment 2 December, 1992
Segment 3 June, 1993
5. It is contemplated that certain of the anticipated local sewer rehabilitation and
sewer relief work to be performed on the locally owned collector systems may be financed in part by
federal grant funds which Wayne may receive and expend on behalf of the Local Units. The parties
hereto acknowledge that Wayne as grantee is bound to administer such funds in accordance with U. S.
EPA requirements including the requirements of 40 CFR 35.2104 and, therefore, the parties hereto
agree that Wayne shall have the legal, institutional, managerial and financial capability to ensure
adequate building and operation and maintenance of all grant funded improvements and treatment works
throughout the applicant's jurisdiction, and it is the intention of the parties to grant to Wayne
any such needed authority so as to enable Wayne to comply with U.S. EPA rules and regulations.
Further, the Local Units agree that if federal funds are awarded to Wayne to finance the local
improvements described in Exhibit H, the affected Local Units will authorize Wayne through its chief
executive officer or his designee to take certain necessary administrative actions on behalf of the
Local Units. The administrative actions to be taken by Wayne shall include the advertisement for
bids, and subject to local approval, the awarding of construction and engineering contracts.
Further, Wayne shall administer such contracts in accordance with U.S. EPA and MONR requirements.
The Local Units also agree to fully cooperate with Wayne in carrying out the projects and the
improvements described in Exhibit H.
6. In accordance with the agreement of the parties set out in Section 5 hereof, it is
necessary to clarify the provisions of Section 28 of the Primary Contract. It is understood by the
parties that local improvements include not only sewer rehabilitation work but also sewer relief
work and the SSES work required in connection therewith, as described in Exhibit G. All such local
Improvements shall be designed and constructed concurrent with regional facilities in accordance
with time schedules for construction of the Facilities.
7. The discharge of wastewater into the Facilities or into the Rouge Valley System from
any public corporation using the Facilities or that System, whether a party hereto or not, shall not
exceed the purchase capacity of such public corporation in the Facilities or that System,
Responsibility and authority will be vested with Wayne to oversee the discharge of wastewater from
each public corporation and take appropriate actions to protect the rights of all public
corporations in the Facilities and Rouge Valley System to discharge up to but not in excess of their
purchase capacities. It is anticipated that this responsibility will entail flow monitoring and
perhaps flow regulation, if needed to protect these rights.
Wayne agrees that in the event it becomes necessary to install meters to monitor the flow
of wastewater into the Facilities or the Rouge Valley System, the costs for installation and
operation of such meters shall be borne by all parties using the system involved as a general system
cost.
Should it also become necessary to construct or install restrictive devices to limit such
wastewater flow, Wayne shall to the extent permitted by law require that the cost of such
constuction or installation be borne by the public corporation or public corporations whose excess
flow requires such construction or installation.
8. All parties hereto obligated to pay costs of Segment 1 of the Facilities, except the
Cities of Dearborn Heights, Inkster and Northville and the Township of Van Buren (the "Wayne Bond
Participants"), have indicated to Wayne that they will each pay in cash their respective shares of
such costs, as shown on Exhibit E-3 and as provided in the Primary Contract. Wayne is agreeable to
421
Commissioners Minutes Continued. December 1, 1988
such cash payments, upon the understanding and agreement of all parties hereto that such cash
payments will be made available to Wayne in the total amounts shown on Exhibit E-3 as the respective
shares of such parties for the Segment 1 costs, subject to the terms of the Primary Contract and
without the two percent (2%) added for Wayne's bond issuance costs, no later than March 15, 1989.
Such cash payments shall be made to a bank or trust company under an escrow or custodial arrangement
approved by Wayne, whereby Wayne will have the irrevocable right to draw upon such funds to pay
amounts under Segment 1 construction contracts for the Facilities and other Segment 1 costs of the
Facilities as the same become due. Wayne shall only pay such construction payments upon proper
requisitions approved by the engineers for the Facilities, and upon request of any Local Unit, Wayne
will make available to such Local Unit copies of all bills to be paid from such funds. Wayne agrees
that all investment income on such funds shall accrue to the party providing such funds and also
that the escrow or custodial arrangement may permit the party providing the funds to direct the
investment thereof. Wayne will not be responsible for and will not be required to furnish any
reports required by any party hereto in order that such party may comply with federal internal
revenue service code or regulation requirements.
9. Wayne shall issue contract bonds (the "Bonds") under Act 185, Public Acts of Michigan,
1957, as amended, to finance Segment 1 costs of the Facilities for the Wayne Bond Participants. The
debt service on the Bonds shall be the primary obligation of the Wayne Bond Participants only, and
such debt service shall be charged to and paid by the Wayne Bond Participants in the manner, at the
times and in the shares as shown on Exhibit X attached hereto and made a part hereof. Issuance
costs of the Bonds shall not be limited to two percent (2%) of the principal amount thereof, but
shall be as included on Exhibit X. The principal amount of the Bonds to be issued to finance such
costs shall be paid to the Wayne County Department of Public Works in annual principal
installments, plus interest and other expenses as hereinafter provided, on the first day of the
month immediately preceding the date of maturity of the principal amounts of the Bonds, in amounts
equivalent to said annual maturities of Bond principal and in proportions as provided in Exhibit X.
In addition to such principal installments, the Wayne Bond Participants will pay to the Wayne County
Department of Public Works, in the same shares and on the first day of the month immediately
preceding any interest due date on the bonds, as accrued interest on the principal amount of the
Bonds remaining unpaid, amounts sufficient to pay all interest due on such next succeeding interest
payment date. From time to time as Wayne is billed by registrar/transfer/paying agents for their
services or by trustee or escrow agents or for letter of credit charges or any other recurring
financing charges, or as any other costs or expenses accrue to Wayne from the financing of the
Facilities or the handling of debt service payments made, or for any other actions taken in
connection with the Bonds, the Wayne County Department of Public Works shall notify the Wayne Bond
Participants of the amount of such fees, costs and expenses, and the Wayne Bond Participants shall,
within thrity (30) days from such notification remit to said Department sufficient funds to meet
such fees, costs and expenses, in the same shares as debt service payments are proportioned.
10. In addition to other methods of sale and as an alternative method of sale of the
Bonds, the Bonds may be sold to the Michigan Municipal Bond Authority (the "Authority") pursuant to
Act No. 227 of the Public Act of 1985, Act 202 of the Public Acts of 1943 and other applicable
statutory provisions, and if such alternative sale method is chosen, the Bonds shall bear an
original issue date, be payable in the amounts and on the dates and at such place, bear interest at
the rates, be subject to redemption and otherwise have such terms and provisions as shall be
determined in Wayne's resolution awarding the Bonds to the Authority, and all Wayne and Wayne Bond
Participants officials, agents and employees are hereby directed to take all actions necessary or
desirable to implement such alternative method of sale, and such sale at a discount not to exceed
three percent (3%) is hereby approved. Wayne is hereby authorized to make such changes in Exhibit X
as may be required to properly reflect a sale to the Authority, and Wayne shall promptly forward any
changed Exhibit X to the Wayne Bond participants.
Should such alternative method of sale of the Bonds be decided upon, at the sole option of
Wayne, each Wayne Bond Participant hereby agrees to execute a Revenue Sharing Pledge Agreement
directly with the Authority, in substantially the form attached hereto but subject to such changes
as either Wayne or the Authority may require. Such Agreement may provide for a pledge of State
returned funds superior to and of a priority above such pledge set out in Section 24 of the Primary
Contract or may supersede such Section 24 pledge in total, but only with respect to debt service
payments. Should Wayne in its sole discretion choose such alternative method of sale to the
Authority, Wayne may not pledge its full faith and credit as secondary security for the Bonds, if so
agreed upon between Wayne and the Authority.
11. All parties hereto shall, to the extent permitted by law, take or avoid taking all
actions within the control of each necessary to maintain the exemption of the interest on the Bonds
from general federal income taxation (as opposed to any alternative minimum or other indirect
taxation) under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, including, but not limited to,
actions relating to any required rebate of arbitrage earnings and the expenditure and investment of
Bond proceeds and moneys deemed to be Bond proceeds and actions or avoidances called for in any
relevant non-arbitrage documents. Further, all parties hereto shall, severally and not jointly,
hold Wayne harmless from any loss or liability in any way related to federal arbitrage requirements,
whether relative to the Bonds or to any bonds issued by any party hereto itself.
12. The parties hereto do hereby authorize their respective chief executive officers,
clerks and/or treasurers to execute any documents necessary to implement the Primary Contract and/or
this Amendment, including but not limited to excrow or custodial agreements, Authority documents or
Commissioners Minutes Continued, December 1, 1988 422
other required documents.
13. Notwithstanding any provisions of the Primary Contract or this Amendment to the
contrary, each party hereto pledges irrevocably its full faith and credit for the prompt and timely
payment of only its own individual primary obligations as expressed herein, except that as stated in
Section 20(a) of the Primary Contract of Wayne's pledge of its limited tax full faith and credit as
secondary security for the Bonds, upon appropriate vote of its commission, may be given.
14. It is acknowledged and agreed between the parties hereto that the construction and
financing of the Facilities is a segmented project, with construction to be completed over a period
of years and financing to be accomplished by various bond issues and/or cash payments. The Bonds
and cash payments approved and authorized in this Amendment are estimated to be sufficient to pay
the local share cost of Segment 1 of the Facilities. The total cost and scope of the Facilities is
presently estimated to be as set out in the attached Exhibits. All parties hereto shall
participate, in accordance with the applicable allocations of cost as set forth in such Exhibits, in
the payment for the construction of the Facilities, until the Facilities are completed.
Consequently, it is anticipated that additional amendments to the Primary Contract will be required
of all parties hereto, as construction and financing of the Facilities progresses. In the event
that any party refuses to pay, either in cash or through payments of debt service to retire a bond
issue, its sh9re of the total cost of construction of the Facilities, then Wayne may incorporate
such refusing party's allocated costs into the Rates for such refusing party as a debt service
charge, and no other party hereto shall pay such costs.
16. With respect to its direct participation in the Facilities, Wayne shall have the same
rights and obligations as any Local Unit hereunder, and Wayne hereby so commits to such obligations.
16. Any provisions of the Primary Contract in conflict with the provisions hereof are to
the extent of such conflict hereby rescinded and repealed, but all other provisions of such Primary
Contract are hereby ratified and confirmed, it being the parties intent that their full agreement
as to the financing, constructing and operation of the Facilities shall be embodied in the Primary
Contract and this Amendment, unless and until further supplemented or amended by further written
agreement between the parties.
17. This Amendment shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the respective
parties hereto, their successors and assigns.
18. This Amendment shall become effective upon approval of the legislative body of Wayne,
of Oakland and of each Local Unit a party hereto and when duly executed by the appropriate officer
or officers of each such party. This Amendment may be executed in several counterparts.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this instrument to be executed as of
the date and year first above written.
