IN RE: ALLOCATION BUDGET FOR THE YEAR 1976
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Mr, Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen:
The Property Tax Limitation Statute (Act 62, Section 9, Public Acts of 1933, M.S.A. 7,61)
provides the County shall, at the April Session of the Board of Commissioners, submit a budget to the
County Tax Allocation Board for its use in determing the County's share of the fifteen Mill general
property tax for the ensuing year. To this end, your Finance Committee, together with your Personnel
Practices Committee and the County Executive, herewith present their recommendations for the period
January 1, 1976 to December 31, 1976.
The sole objective of this budget is to prepare for submission to the County Tax Allocation
Board a total picture of the County's 1976 operational needs, those resources other than the general
property tax which will be available for that purpose, and the amount of the property tax revenues
necessary if those needs are to be implemented. That body, as charged by law, then determines the
respective tax rates for those local units, including the County, who share the 15 Mill general property
tax.
In light of this process, your Committee again advises all agencies and County Department
Heads that the recommendations herein cannot in any degree be regarded as binding 'until final budget
consideration when the tax rate is known and other revenues and costs can be more fully evaluated and
determined.
Personnel.
(Increase, 2.74 million dollars). Of this amount, 887 thousand dollars represents anticipated
cost of 81 recommended new positions reduced from 196 positions requested by County departments); and
1.0 million to meet 1976 anticipated salary adjustments (approximately 4.055).
Non-Departmental
(Increase, 3.89 million dollars). The projected increase in Non-Departmental recommendations
is largely accounted for in the following:
1. Employees' costs including Hospitalization, Life, Health and Accident Insurance, Retire-
ment and Social Security contributions account for approximately 1.54 million dollars.
2. Anticipated case load increases in the Social So -vices General Relief Accounts for
approximately 1.78 million dollars.
3. Continuation of the C,L.E.M.I.S. program and computarization of other departmental
functions accounts for approximately 384 thousand dollars increase in our Data Processing Budget.
4. Continuation of the N.E.T. Program Accounts for 150 thousand dollars.
Departmental
(Increase including personnel costs, '5.4 million), For explanation on changes in respective
departmental budgets your attention is directed to those specific explanations therein set out.
Revenues
It is anticipated that property taxes will finance approximately $43,935,392 of the total
budget of $65,048,482, the remainder will be derived from Miscellaneous Receipts and Federal Revenue
Sharing Funds in the amount of $2,350,000.
Federal Revenue _$haring
In keeping with 1975 Budget policy, we are recommending the allocation of $2,350,000 to
Commissioners Minutes Continued April 17, 1975 187
County operations, namely: State Institutions, Library Board, Hospitalization, LON Library, Circuit
Court (Court Appointed Attorneys), Medical Examiner, Camp Oakland, Chapter 20 & 21 Drains, and Juvenile
Ma inter i n. The anticipated balance of $1,000,000 is allocated to the County Building Program.
Conch.-
In the judgement of your Finance Committee, these recommendations, including the joint recom-
mendation. of the Personnel Practices Committee and the County Execcrtive represent, in5ofar as present
I nformation is available, the amounts net to finance County operati ns for 1976 on a level neces-
sary to carry out the essertial responsibilities of the County of Oaklaril.
. Mr. Chairman, on behalf of the Finance Committee, I move 17,1r • ( ii of the at
Allocation Budget in the aeount of $65,048,482,, necessitating a requested property tax levy of
$43,935,392 for submissior to the County Tax Allocation Board.

EMERGENCY SALARIES
"Emergency Salaries" amounts are granted to certain departments to cope with fluctuating
caseloads, to cover vacation and sick leave absences and to cover repetitive seasonal or special
projects. Experience has shown that the hiring of short term temporary employees is usually less
expensive than staffing with a larger number of full-time permanent . employees to meet peak loads. Often
the use of "Emergency Salariesl! allows a department to have a roster of "on call" employees available to
cope with emergencies. Permission must be obtained from the Personnel Division, before such funds can
be used. $97,960 was spent for Emergency Salaries in 1974. The amounts recommended for the various
departments are shown on the summary sheet,

Engineer 'rig Aides, Law Clerks and other jobs requiring substantial academic backgrounds. Placing
these funds for sumr , r emi loynni in the Salaries Reserve Fund allows the Personnel Committee to over -

Budget, allows the -sonn! 1 Divi on tc • ,,,,'Inete, and the Personnel Commiti.• to oversee, training
activities, which hay , become more important as the County seeks to upgrade pr: c.( employees instead
of fighting in the «)mpetitive market for the hard -to -get specialists and techr. The major
expenditures from this fund are to finance the County's Tuition Reimbursement Program under which
tuition is r( imbursed to an employee after bo has successfully completed a course which was approved
by both hk t',1•;,rtment head and the County 1 • cutive through his Personnel Division.
CLA. •Ir CATION AND RATE CHANGES (AB [NG BUDGET YEAR
Becise the County is a very colop .,A institution which is constantly changing its scope, the
duties of many positions change during each budget year. With over 2,800 positions, it is not possible
to study and r ,port all such changes in time to be reflected in the County's annual Budget, many
changes in • ificetion and some rate adjustments must be made during the Budget year. The creation
of new i• one and new si.1 ry rates can only be done by the Board of Commissioners, and these
funds can 1 .1 ,r unly with the ilflroval of the Board.
Al ANY ADJU i TH
A . mc. , there m...iny unknowns affecting the 1976 salaries of County employees.
Labor Contract., ill le negoti.A. . comparable competitive salary structures will be analyzed, the
policies of the F,,deral Gcerna, und the condition of the Nation's economy will all have a con -
siderable effect on the sziari , it tore. The $1,666,071 recommended for this purpose at this time
I ncludes 47, of the cost of old positions, new positions, Overtime Reserve and the remainder of the
County Executive reorganization costs.
CHILDREN'S VILLAGE 'ThDENT EMPLOYMENT PROGRAM
First included in Li • 1975 Budget, these funds allow for the part -time employment of temporary
wards of the Oakland County Juvenile Court currently housed in Children's If facilities, This
program provides a compensated, productive work experience for children, many of whom have never had
work responsibility, and at the same time, provides economical help for the many County departments in
the performance of a number of backlogged routine activities.
MATERNITY LEAVE RESERVE
To provide temporary relief to fill in for employees on Maternity Leave. This allows funds
to be budgeted for the payment of relief help, similar to the use of emergency salaries, without com-
mitting the funds to particular departments to allow for distribution where the funds are needed
specifically for maternity purposes.

the attached budget.
The Public Services Committee, by James W. Dunleavy, Chairman, moves the adoption of the

PUBLIC SERVICES COMMITTEE
James W. Dunleavy, Chairman
EXPLANATORY NOTE
It is the County Executive's recommendation that the sum of $84,734 be distributed to those
units of government whose population, according to the 1970 census, were between 10,000 and 50,000.
These units of government, because of the nature of the Title VI allocation formula established by the
U.S. Department of Labor, received less than a fair share of the available funds.
In order to partially remedy this situation, it is recommended that available forfeited funds
be reallocated based on the number of unemployed (approximately $4.75 per Unemployed person) as estimated
by the M.E,S,C, for December, 1974.
In addition, the sum of $16,181 is recommended for the staffing of the Oakland County Tourist
and Convention Bureau of the North Oakland Chamber of Commerce. This allocation would provide for the
hiring of an executive director at an annual salary of $8,700 and one (1) secretary at an annual salary
of approximately $7,400. The allocation would be for the time period ending February 9, 1976 which
coincides with the termination of the C.E.T.A. Title VI program.
The functions of the Tourist Bureau are outlined in the attached correspondence from the
North Oakland Chamber of Commerce.
