supervisor, the employee shall have the right to discuss the grievance with his steward, If, in the
steward's opinion, proper cause for the complaint exists, a meeting on the problem shall take place
between the grievant, the steward and the immediate supervisor. In the event that the Union is

shall be strictly adhered to. In the event that a grievance is not appealed within the particular
specified time limit, it shall be deemed to be settled or the basis of the Employer's last answer.
In the event that the Employer shall fail to supply the Union with its answer to the particular step
within the specified time limits, the grievance shall be deemed automatically positioned for appeal at
the next step with the time limit for exercising said appeal commencing with the expiration of the
grace period for answering.
Section 3
All specified time limits herein shall consist only of County Work days Monday through
Friday.
Section 4
Each grievance shall have to be initiated within three (3) days of each occurrence of
the cause for complaint or, if neither the aggrieved nor the Union had knowledge of said occurrence at
the time of its happening, then within three (3) days after the Union or the aggrieved becomes aware
of the cause for complaint.
VI. SENIORITY
New Employees may acquire seniority by working six (6) continuous months (refer to
Rule 7 - Probationary Period, Oakland County Merit System Handbook), in which event the employee's
seniority will date back to the date of hire into the department. The date of employment will be
determined by the first date of eligible employment in the department as described in Rule 22 of the
Oakland County Merit System Handbook. When the employee acquires seniority, his name shall be placed
on the seniority list, in the order of his seniority date.
An up-to-date seniority list shall be furnished to the Union every three (3) months.
An employee shall lose his seniority for the following reasons:
(a) If the employee resigns or retires;
(b) If the employee is discharged, and not reinstated;
(c) If the employee is absent from work for three working days, without properly
notifying the Employer, unless a satisfactory reason is given;
(d) If the employee does not return to work at the end of an aRproved leave;
(e) If the employee does not return to work when recalled from a layoff.
VII. LAYOFF AND RECALL
If and when it becomes necessary for the Employer to reduce the number of employees in
the work force, the employees will be laid off in unit seniority order (maintenance, custodial and
grounds are to be considered separate units), based on capability of performing available jobs and
shall be recalled in the inverse order (refer to Rule 9 - Oakland County Merit System Handbook). All
employees so laid off shall be offered the opportunity of recall prior to the hiring of any new employees.
VIII. PROMOTIONS
All promotions within the bargaining unit shall be made on the basis of competitive
examination as provided for in the Oakland County Merit System. The employer will make his selection
for promotion from the three highest ranking candidates who have passed the promotional examination.
The qualification for admission to the examination will be seniority in a classification within the
bargaining unit and meeting the minimum qualifications for the classification of the vacancy as shown
in the latest dated written specification for that classification. in cases for which all other aspects
of the examination result in equal examination scores, seniority in the immediate lower classification
or classifications shall be the determining factor in arriving at the final ranking of the candidates.
These promotional examinations shall be conducted under the provisions of the Merit
System applying to continuous examinations. The Eligibility Lists shall be superseded by new Eligibility
Lists after a period of not less than two (2) years.
IX. RATES FOR NEW JOBS
When any position not listed on the wage schedule is filled or established, the County
may designate a job classification and rate structure for the position. In the event the Union does
not agree that the classification, rate or structure are proper, the Union shall have the right to
request a meeting of the special conference committee to discuss the matter.
X. TEMPORARY CHANCE OF RATE
In those cases in which the temporary assignment includes taking over the ultimate
responsibility inherent in the higher level job, and in which the employee working in the temporary
assignment has qualified for the higher level classification by taking and passing the promotional
Merit System examination for that classification; and in which the temporary assignment is for at least
one full shift, the base salary rate will be paid to the employee in the temporary assignment for the
time actually worked in the higher classification but the increased earnings will not count toward the
basis on which service increment pay is determined.

IN RE: APPROPRIATION FOR THE IMPROVEMENT OF COUNTY ROADS
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS increased traffic on the major County roads within cities, villages and townships
has created hazardous driving conditions due to the inadequacy of the County roads; and
WHEREAS our 1972 budget fails to provide monies to our County Road Commission to correct
substandard conditions existing within this County; and
WHEREAS there has been a loss on our roads throughout the year of approximately 200 deaths
and 18,000 personal injuries, which amounts to a 9.3% increase in traffic fatalities for 1971 in
Oakland County, compared to a 1.4% decrease for the State of Michigan, which loss and injury in many
instances can be attributed to substandard roads; and
WHEREAS it is the responsibility and duty of the Oakland County Board of Commissioners to
do all in their power to help alleviate the problems of our roads, which are real people problems;
and
WHEREAS State Police statisticians attribute a major role to highway maintenance and design
in lessening loss of life and personal injuries; and
WHEREAS it is a reasonable projection that our State and County economic conditions will
improve to allow the County Board of Commissioners to provide funding for roads;
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners amend the 1 .972
budget by appropriating $500,000 to the Oakland County Road Commission by increasing the State Revenue
Sharing figure by $100,000 to a total of $360,000 and by increasing anticipated State Income Tax
revenue by $300,000 to a total of $4,020,000; also, that the sum of $100,000 be appropriated from any
available funds to the Oakland County Road Commission.
Mr. Chairman, I move the adoption of the foregoing resolution.

PAPER, METAL, AND OTHER MATERIAL BY VOLUNTEER GROUPS IN OAKLAND COUNTY FOR RECYCLING PURPOSES
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS various citizens and groups are concerned with the vast amount of waste materials
being discarded and destroyed, and the pollution and littering resulting therefrom; and
WHEREAS said citizens and groups are also concerned about the depletion and condition of
our natural resources if said consumption and pollution continues; and
WHEREAS said citizens and groups are actively engaged in various parts of the county in the
collection of glass and paper materials on a voluntary basis; and
WHEREAS encouragement and organization are needed in order to guarantee the continuation of
activities being conducted for recycling purposes;
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners accept the
responsibility for coordinating the volunteer groups by designating a person or persons in a county
department for said coordination and encouragement of the volunteer groups.
Mr. Chairman, I move that the foregoing resolution be referred to the Public Works Committee.

IN RE: RESOLUTION TO CONTROL WEEDS IN OAKLAND COUNTY LAKES
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS there are 430 lakes in Oakland County that enhance the beauty and make the County
an extremely desirable place in which to live, work and play; and
WHEREAS nearly all citizens of Oakland County use, have used, or will use these lakes For
recreation and/or enjoyment; and
WHEREAS the citizenry of Oakland County are very concerned about the ecology of the water
and the preservation of the lakes; and
WHEREAS the lake property owners have been treating certain of the lakes with chemicals to
control the weed contamination, the long range effect of which is apparently unknown; and
WHEREAS it may be more desirable to cut and harvest the weeds from the lakes where they are
unsightly and/or hazardous;
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners investigate and
consider the purchase of necessary weed harvesting equipment and machinery to remove undesirable weeds
