Resolution #89276) which requires Board approval of repayment terms at an interest rate no less than the prevailing six-month Treasury Bill rate and that such rates shall be computed and

made prior to September 30, without approval from the Finance Committee of the Board of Commissioners.

repaid by the Drain Fund through assessments. Specific requests will be reviewed and approved by the Fiscal Officer or his/her designee.
(h) A transfer of any or all of the appropriation allocated under the Non-Departmental account for Legislative Expense (#10100-9090101-196030-731080) shall not be
made to any departmental budget without adoption of an Oakland County Board of Commissioners resolution.
23. The Board of Commissioners may make supplemental appropriations by amending this general appropriations measure as provided by this resolution, provided that revenues in
excess of those anticipated in the original general appropriations measure become available due to:
(a) An unobligated surplus from prior years becoming available; (b) Current year revenue exceeding original estimate in amounts sufficient enough to
finance increased appropriations. The Board of Commissioners may make a supplemental appropriation by increasing the dollar amount of an appropriation item
in the original general appropriations measure or by adding additional items. At the same time the estimated amount from the source of revenue to which the increase in
revenue may be attributed shall be increased, or other source and amount added in a sum sufficient to equal the supplemental expenditure amount. In no case may such
appropriations cause total estimated expenditures, including an accrued deficit, to exceed total estimated revenues, including an unappropriated surplus.
24. Whenever it appears to the County Executive or the Board of Commissioners that actual and probable revenues in any fund will be less than the estimated revenues upon which
Commissioners Minutes Continued. September 20, 2012
627
appropriations from such fund were based, the County Executive shall present to the Board of Commissioners recommendations which, if adopted, will prevent expenditures from
exceeding available revenues for the current fiscal year. Such recommendations shall include proposals for reducing appropriations, increasing revenues, or both. After receiving
the recommendations of the County Executive for bringing appropriations into balance with estimated revenues, the Board of Commissioners shall amend the general appropriations
measure to reduce appropriations or shall approve such measures necessary to provide revenues sufficient to equal appropriations, or both.
25. All appropriations are annual and the unexpended portion shall lapse at year-end. Encumbrances and appropriations carried forward shall be recorded as an assigned fund
balance, and the subsequent year's budget amended to provide authority to complete these transactions. Appropriations shall not be carried forward for more than six (6) months into the
budget year following the year in which they were originally appropriated. A status report on Appropriations Carried Forward, as required by Miscellaneous Resolution #93-156, will be
incorporated as an integral part of the ensuing year's Second Quarter Financial Forecast for the purposes of determining their continuation for the remainder of the year. The
recommended year-end budget amendment shall be supported with a statement of revenues and expenditures and operating surplus or deficit which shall contain the following data: (1)
budget as adopted; (2) budget amendments; (3) budget as adjusted; (4) revenues and expenditures, operating surplus or deficit; (5) accrued revenue and expenditures; (6)
transfers; (7) total revenues and expenditures and transfers, operating surplus or deficit, including accruals and transfers; (8) encumbrances; (9) appropriations carried forward; (10)

unencumbered appropriation balance, operating surplus or deficit; (12) detail of adjustments to designated and undesignated fund balance, detail of adjustment to reserves and/or any
other utilization of surplus; (13) final surplus or deficit or undesignated fund balance carried forward to the subsequent year's budget.
26. A member of the Board of Commissioners, the County Executive, any elected officer, the Fiscal Officer, any other administrative officer or employee of Oakland County shall not: (1)
create a debt, incur a financial obligation on behalf of the County against an appropriation account in excess of the amount authorized, (2) apply or divert money of the County for
purposes inconsistent with those specified in this general appropriations measure as approved and amended by the Board of Commissioners, nor (3) forgive a debt or write off an
account receivable without appropriate authorization of the Board of Commissioners, as described in Miscellaneous Resolution #93-135 (Bad Debt Write-Off Policy) and
Miscellaneous Resolution #12-048 (Short Sale Policy). Specifically, application of the foregoing Bad Debt Write-Off Policy shall be invoked for all amounts in excess of $1,000;
transactions of a lesser amount shall be considered within the administrative authority of the Fiscal Officer or his/her designee. Application of the foregoing Short Sale policy may be
invoked to allow the County to consider less than the balance owed on an Oakland County home improvement loan in a proposed sale of property, unless prohibited by Federal
Regulations, as determined by the Manager of the Oakland County Community and Home Improvement Division or his/her designee. Furthermore, the Fiscal Services Division must
submit to the Board of Commissioners, as part of the quarterly financial report, a listing of all bad debt write offs (including short sales) occurring during the preceding three months. In
addition, transactions relating to Inmate Prisoner Billings which are billed in excess of ability to pay, as determined by the Fiscal Services Division, are hereby authorized to be adjusted in
accordance with Public Act 212 of 1994 with the resultant amount of the write-off subsequently reported to the Board of Commissioners as part of the Quarterly Financial

plan for replacing, upgrading or disposing of those assets. 28. The budgetary system shall be maintained on the same basis of accounting (generally
accepted accounting principles) as the actual financial information is maintained. 29. Any violation of the general appropriations measure by the County Executive, the Fiscal
Officer, any administrative officer, employee or member of the Board of Commissioners detected through application of generally accepted accounting procedures utilized by
Oakland County or disclosed in an audit of the financial records and accounts of the County shall be filed with the State Treasurer and reported by the State Treasurer to the Attorney
General. Pursuant to Public Act 621 of 1978, the Uniform Budgeting Act, the Attorney General shall review the report and initiate appropriate action against the person or persons
in violation. For use and benefit of the County of Oakland, the Attorney General or Prosecuting Attorney may institute a civil and/or criminal action in a court of competent
jurisdiction for the recovery of County funds disclosed by an examination to have been illegally expended or collected as a result of malfeasance, and for the recovery of public
property disclosed to have been converted or misappropriated. 30. The provisions of this act shall be applied to the General Fund and all Special Revenue and
Proprietary Funds of the County, including Enterprise Funds and Internal Service Funds. BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that as a condition of appropriation to a Community Mental Health

MISCELLANEOUS RESOLUTION #12238
BY: Michael Gingell, Shelley Taub IN RE: OPPOSITION TO HB 5804 - ESTABLISHMENT OF THE MICHIGAN INDIGENT DEFENSE
COMMISSION To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Commissioners Minutes Continued. September 20, 2012
638
Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen: WHEREAS Oakland County supports the goals of improving criminal defense services to the indigent in
order to ensure fair and consistent legal representation, and WHEREAS the state’s creation of the Michigan Indigent Defense Commission ( MIDC ) and its delineation
of its role, responsibilities, standards and other processes, without funding support, clearly constitute the establishment of an unfunded mandate, and
WHEREAS the state, by creating the MIDC has given powers to create and enforce new criminal defense standards to an unelected board, and
WHEREAS the MIDC will increase the cost of criminal defense to the taxpayer, and WHEREAS the MIDC will reduce the appropriation responsibilities of all elected Boards of Commissioners
in Michigan for criminal indigent defense to a ministerial action, and WHEREAS the appeal process of an aggrieved local unit of government would be required to appeal its
grievance to the MIDC, the very autonomous entity that likely is involved in imposing the grievance, and WHEREAS under the proposed HB 5804, every county shall first set aside $7.25 per capita for indigent
defense even before the MIDC is formed and the underlying rules, standards and responsibilities for criminal indigent defense is developed, and
WHEREAS in Oakland County, indigent defense is budgeted at $4.97 million, and WHEREAS the County would be mandated to set aside another $ 4.27 million, and
WHEREAS the County would then be forced to reduce services to taxpayers not charged with a crime and/or employees who have taken reductions in compensation over several years could also be
impacted. NOW THEREFORE BE IN RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners opposes the
passage of HB 5804 in its current form. BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Oakland County Clerk send a copy of this resolution to the
governor, senate majority leader, speaker of the house, Oakland County legislators, and Michigan Association of Counties.
