proposed resolution for adoption by the Board of Commissioners for the purpose of pledging the full
faith and credit of the County of Oakland as secondary security for the payment of said Drain Bonds.
The said Drain Bonds are issued in anticipation of the payment by the City of Pontiac and
the County of Oakland in the aggregate amount of at least equal to the amount of said Bonds. The
full faith and credit of said public corporation is pledged, by law, to the prompt payment of said
assessments and the interest thereon when due. The law further authorizes and obligates said public
corporation to levy a tax in an amount sufficient to make said payment (unless other funds are on hand
available for said purpose) which tax may be levied without limitation as to rate or amount. The
County is entitled, by law, to recover from said public corporation the amount advanced from County
funds at any time in fulfillment of the County's secondary pledge of its full faith and credit.
It is respectfully requested that the enclosed resolution be adopted for the reasons set
forth in the preamble and because the pledge of the County's full faith and credit will result in a
material savings in bond interest to be paid.

Bonds to be issued $11,900,000.00
You will note in the new tabulation of cost there is no item for Capitalized Interest.
This has been eliminated because the City has indicated to our Financial Consultant they are willing
to spread a full year interest on the bond issue on their December, 1975 Assessment Roll. This will
then make it possible for the bonds to be due on May 1, 1976.
I would point out we have been in touch with both Mr. Smiley and Mr. Neipling in this matter
and they seem to be pleased with the new Estimated Cost.
A request has been made by Mr. Neipling (with your approval) that a revised estimate of cost
be made available to him prior to 5:00 P.M. Tuesday so he may present and discuss it at the City
Commission meeting.

James W. Dunleavy, Chairman
OAKLAND COUNTY EXECUTIVE - DANIEL T. MURPHY
REPORT TO THE PUBLIC SERVICES COMMITTEE - OAKLAND COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS ON THE POSSIBLE NEED
FOft—TA"jr EXPANSION
COUNTY EXECUTIVE REPORT ON PROPOSED JAIL EXPANSION
In response to a report presented by the Oakland County Sheriff's Department to the Public
Services Committee of the Board of Commissioners in July of 1975, the County Executive directed his
staff to investigate the reported over-crowded conditions in the jail and to outline a procedure for
identifying the type of additional prisoner facilities needed. The Executive directed that both short
term and long term needs be considered.
The Sheriff's Department and the State Department of Corrections were consulted during this
I nquiry.
SITUATION - Resident capacity, beds - Men - 426 - Women - 144 Total -470 Trusy Camp - 60
Commissioners Minutes Continued. August 21, 1975 476
(Thc Nove figures do not include the holding tank, infirmary, or booking.)
- In a letter dated May 27, 1975, Mr. Robert J. Russell, SuperVisrr F -ciHf.y
or , hi. Department of Corrections, stated:
ly counts indicate that during 1974 the normal r. a — i v of fr r ' cell
1 , I- 11 i d .1 57 days and the normal capacity of the wome•'. ,/ h • I ..........i 1
6 days. Furthil ti total habitable capacity of the jail has been exceed-, on 6 d'y "
Statiatic, and reports from both the Department of Corrections and the Sheriff', D.. p .-tmant
indicat( Ike present over-crowding has not yet reached crisis proportions. Both believe, 1 .•,
that st i lion is serious enough to require immediate attention. The administratior . concir in
that b ./ .
In addition to the overall jail population problem, the County Executive's staff found the
women's p(„pulation problem to be unique and, in some ways, more serious than the problem regarding
male prisoners,
Women cannot earn their way to the Trusty Camp, as f;,,ilities are not available for them at
that facility. Furthermore, the exercise facilities at the jail are barely adequate for the present
population. Usually, women are allowed out of their cells for orcise only after the exercise periods
for men. Women prisoners interviewed by a member of the County Laecutive's staff feit this situation
to be very unfair, if not discriminatory. Many claimed they had not been let out of their cells for
days. Sheriff's Department personnel verified that, in periods of cvercrowding women prisoners suffer
the consequences more than men.
Any solution to the general population problem at the jail should include remedies for the
special problems of women,
Two other significant factors should be mentioned in defining the problem.
First the jail cc. designed at a time when most prisoners were actually sentenced to the
jail; that is, they had c smitted crimes requiring sentences of one year or less in the county jail,
The number of felt f /ng held for trial or transfer to other facilities was far smaller than the
number of persons r ofac to the jail. The situation has since reversed itself, The majority of
prisoners are now felons being temporarily held in, not sentenced to, the county jail. The typical
stay in the county jail for felons in seven months.
Second, there now exists a much higher incidence of prisoners in jail for drug related
offences than previously. Although state law does not prohibit transfer of these individuals to the
Trusty Camp, the present sheriff's department operation takes only limited advantage of this.
PO' 1BLE ACTIONS TO BE TAKEN - As has been suggested by the County Executive in the past,
and more reccn,ly by the sheriff, two actions can immediately be undertaken to relieve over-crowding
in the short-term.
I. Full use of the Trusy Camp facility.
2. Reduction, as needed, in the number of federal prisoners held.
Transferring an additional 22 prisoners to the Trusty Camp and removing all federal prisoners
from the jail would create an additional 62 to 72 beds. With these actions, present facilities would
be adequate until the beginning of 1977.
During the one and a half years of breathing room the above actions would provide, one or
more of the following alternatives should be implemented.
I. Expansion of the Trusty Camp. A 60 bed wing could be built in six months at the camp
for less than $100,000 and operated for less than $200,000 a year. The camp could be operated for
15 years for approximately $3 million (no inflation factor).
2. Addition of medium risk facilities at the present jail. The present jail is a maximum
security facility, the most expensive type to build and operate. Since come of the prisoners have
not been convicted of a crime, and others are in jail for drug related and other non-violent crimes,
it would appear that a medium security facility would be adequate for a large part of the jail
population.
3. Expansion of maximum security facilities, by 250 beds, at a cost of approximately $3.5
million.
4. Addition of low security (trusty) facilities at the jail instead of the Trusty Camp,
thereby providing a slightly higher level of security and taking advantage of jail rehabilitation
and other programs available at the jail.
Intelligent decisions on these alternatives cannot be made without a great deal more
information regarding present and expected make-up of the jail population. Proper identification
and classification of prisoners is necessary to determine the need for maximum, medium, and low
security space, and the proper mix for that space. It would be an unconscionable waste of taxpayer
money, for instance, to construct an additional maximum security wing at the jail without knowing
what percentage of the present population - let alone the predicated population - can only to held
in such a facility. Similarly, it would be folly to expand the Trusty Camp without assuraw_es that
a sufficient number of prisoners could, and would, be transferred out of the jail to the Trhst/ Camp.
The recent approval by the Board of Commissioners and the State LEAA office of th,: jail
rehabilitation grant represents an important first step in the information gathering process. Using
this grant, the sheriff's department should be able to provide adequate prisoner identification and
classification information within the next several months.
RECOMMENDATIONS - The following actions should be taken immediately:
1. Full use of the Trusty Camp
2. Reduction in number of federal prisoners held, as space needs dictate.
3. Development and implementation of a better exercise program for female prisoners.
Greater use of women as trustys should also be undertaken.

costs. T 'i • -r tions should take into account all factors which influence jail population,

agencies,
2. The Bc.ird of Commissioners should act on those recommendations.

Mr. Chairman, L. and Gentlemen:
WHEREA: he Oakland County Board of Commissioners by Miscellaneous Resolution #6456 applied
for and was grantA the designation by the U.S. Department of Labor of Prime Sponsor to administer
the provisions of Title I of the Comprehensive and Training Act of 1973; and
WHEREAS the Oakland County Board of Commissioners by Miscellaneous Resolution 1,6924 approved
a C.E.T.A. Title I contract award to the Michigan Employment Security Commission in the amount of
$77,848; and
WHEREAS expanding counselor caseloads and a concurrent M.E.S.C. reduction in staff will
shortly threaten the successful implementation of this contract; and
WHEREAS it is the recommendation of the Manpower staff and the M.E.S.C. that the contract
be modified to provide for additional staff.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners approve the
modi 'cation of the C.E.T.A. Title I M.E.S.C. contract from the present budget of $77,848 to $100,563,
an increase of $22,715, for the period ending December 31, 1975, consistent with the attached budget.
The Public Services Committee, by James W. Dunleavy, Chairman, moves the adoption of the
foregoing resolution.

James W. Dunleavy, Chairman
OAKLAND COUNTY
Inter -Departmental Memo August 5, 1975
Fr d-: services Department
.Tc: services Committee
Subject: Mci , fication of M.E.S.C. Contract
The present M.E.S.C. contract for Title I Fiscal Year 1975 was approved by the Board of
Commissioners through Miscellaneous Resolution 6924 on December 19, 1974. This contract provides
for two counselors at the Royal Oak and Pontiac Branches of M.E.S.C. The total annual cost of the
contract is $77,848. This includes both salaries and indirect costs to support the counseling function
for classroom training and 0.J .T.
At present there are twelve classroom training projects in operation including more than
600 people. Four additional classes are scheduled in the next two months pending approval by the
Board of Commissioners. This will increase the total enrollees to 775. This equates to an average
case load of 194 enrollees per counselor plus an interviewing schedule normally equal to twice the
size of each training class. This volume of interviewing is necessary to ensure that each class starts
with an enrollment in agreement with the minimum target group objectives set forth in the Manpower Plan.
0.J.T. contracts also indicate an increase in volume with 191 enrollees and $540,638 dollars
committed to 64 firms as of July 29th.
Because of the demand and increased volume for both the O.J.T. and Classroom Training segments
of the Title I additional support for M.E.S. C. Branches is needed. This support will include one
interviewer and one typist for each M.E.S.C. Branch. The cost for these personnel, which includes
both salaries and indirect support costs, equals $68,144 per annum. For the period September I,1:--;77,„
to December 31, 1975 which includes the contract modification the cost equals $22,715. The detailed
costs are designated in Appendix A.

IN RE: PONTIAC STADIUM 50 BLACKOUT RULE
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS it has been established in law that the airways that carry radio and television
broadcast signals are public domain, controlled by the Federal Communications Commission in accord
with acts of the Congress; and
WHEREAS hundreds of thousands of enthusiastic followers of professional football are unable
to attend football games because of demand for tickets and, in many cases, because family income is
not sufficient for such entertainment; and
WHEREAS vast numbers of these same fans may not view many professional football games on
television because of the present National Football League ban on televising of home games within
50 miles unless tickets have been sold out 48 hours in advance; and
WHEREAS due to the tremendous costs involved in establishing competitive teams the existing
NFL football teams enjoy virtual monopolies in the metropolitan areas where they are located; and
WHEREAS the new stadium in Pontiac will hold 25,000 more football spectators, making more
remote the eventuality of a sell-out in time for the blackout to be lifted;
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners requests
Congress to pass legislation to prohibit the blacking-out of telecasts of home football games within
the 50-mile radius.
