Mr. Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:

be available to a greater level than that which existed previously because of the earmarking of an
increase in the federal gasoline tax; and

of southeastern Michigan by creating jobs and by creating better access to jobs once the bus and
rail network is in place.
NOW THEREFORE RE IT RESOLVED that the elected governmental leadership expresses their
collective support for the. modifications to the regional improvement plan developed through a series
of discussions between the governmental jurisdictions and SEMTA within the last few weeks. These

Mr. Chairperson, ladies and GenLiemen:
WHEREAS for several years the City of Romulus and the Wayne County Board of Road
Commissioners, which operates Metro Airport, have been unable to resolve a dispute over the amount
of airport concession revenue that should go to the City of Romulus; and
WHEREAS due to tne inability to resolve this local dispute, Representative Mahalak of
Romulus, at the urging of city officials, introduced House Bill 4211 which would remove the airport
concession exemption from taxes that lessees now have; and
WHEREAS House Rill 4211 in effect would force lessees or users of real i property for con-
cessions in all Michigan airports to be subject to taxation as though these lessees or users were
the actual owners of this real property; and
WHEREAS Representative Mahalak has introduced this same legislation in the past without
success because legislators generally are not receptive to changing a state law to resolve a single
local dispute.; and
WHEREAS the General Government Committee has concurred with the recommendation of the
County Airport Committee to oppose House. Bill 4211.
NOW THEREFORE BEAT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of •Commissioners take a position
