IN RE: OPPOSITION TO SENATE BILL 115
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Mr. Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS Senate Bill 115 would permit local units of government to collect property taxes
in four equal installments which, if done, would require the county to re-program its entire
computerized tax collection procedure at considerable cost; and
WHEREAS Senate Bill 115 also provides for delinquent interest on late payments but makes no
determination on how the interest will be distributed; and
WHEREAS Senate Bill 115 lists counties at the bottom of the priority list for receipt of
their share of collected taxes and makes no provision on how soon or when the local unit tax collectors
shall distribute funds; and
WHEREAS Senate Bill 115 makes no provision for county boards of commissioners to either
concur or not concur with a local units decision to adopt the four equal installment collection plan.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners go on record
as opposing Senate Bill 115 for the following reasons:
(1) Estimates are that even if only one local unit of government opted to collect taxes
quarterly, it would cost the county at least $25,000.00 to re-program the computerized tax collection
procedure.
(2) Senate Bill 115 excludes counties from even an advisory role in the local units decision
to adopt a quarterly tax collection plan.
(3) Counties and charter townships are at the bottom of the priority list for receipt of
their share of collected taxes and Senate Bill 115 makes no provision on when the local tax collectors
shall distribute funds.
(4) Senate Bill 115 provides for delinquent interest on late payments but makes no
determination on how the interest shall be distributed.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that this resolution be forwarded to all state legislators representing
Oakland County and to the county's legislative agent.
