The Public Services Committee, by Hubert Price, Jr., Chairman, moves the adoption of the foregoing resolution. PUBLIC SERVICES COMMITTEE Hubert Price, Jr., Chairman OAKLAND COUNTY - PUBLIC SERVICES DEPARTMENT-MANPOWER DIVISION - SENIOR CITIZENS WORK EXPERIENCE As part of the Oakland County Comprehensive Manpower Plan to enhance the employment opportunities of county residents, a part time subsidized employment program proposal has been developed for senior citizens. 'Many program activities funded under the Comprehensive Employment and Training Act are servicing a cross section of age groups, and some are especially designed to assist youth. This proposal specifically focuses on the older population of Oakland County. NEEDS ANALYSIS - Senior citizens are a significant segment of the total county population. According to the 1570 U.S. Census statistics there are 132,781 people in -Oakland County aged 55 years and over. This number represents 14.6% of the total 507,871 county population. A large per- centage of the population growth has been among the older age groups. This is especially true in Oakland County as is evident in the following chart from the 1975 Annual Manpower Planning Report which shows the percentage of population increase In older age groups of county residents. 1970 - 1975 AGE GROUP PERCENTAGE OF POPULATION INCREASE 6D-64 +22_25 65-69 +18.5*. 70-7/4 +12.75 75 -79 +12.0. 80-84 +55.82 85+ +50.6* The Oakland County population 80 years and over has increased more than 50% in the years between 1570 and 1975. With a greater tendency in recent years toward early retirement, there are increasingly fewer senior citizens in the work force. Many seniors who have opted for early retirement are without pensions or are on fixed incomes without cost of living provisions in their pension plans. Those who can only rely on social security benefits are often unable to be financially independent especially with the current inflationary economy.
