IN RE: REPORT ON REQUEST FOR USE OF ADDITIONAL CAPACITY IN DEQUINDRE INTERCEPTOR
To the Oakland County Board of Supervisors
Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen:
On November 4, 1966, Mr. R. J. Alexander, Director, Oakland County Department of Public
Works, made a request to discuss wita the Drain Committee the lease or sale of excess capacity within
the Dequindre Interceptor. As you are aware, the Dequindre facility was constructed by fourteen
Southeastern Oakland County Communities for the transmission of disposable wastes within the sewerage
system of the City of Detroit.
1122
Supervisors Minutes Continued. March 9, 1967
The Dequindre Interceptor was designed to correct sanitary sewerage deficiencies of the
Southeastern Oakland County Sewage Disposal System, a system of interception for combined storm
water and sanitary overflows periodically occurring in the district. It was designed as a pollution
abatement device to protect the Southeastern Municipalities from polluting the waters of the State.
In designing sanitary sewage interception facilities for the district, the Consulting
Engineers computed ultimate district land use development and related such information to cubic feet
per second flows required to adequately service district needs. Ultimate district needs were deter-
mined to require 198 cubic feet per second capacity within the Detroit system. A contract was
negotiated with the Detroit Water Board for the transmission of such ultimate flows with an initial
purchase of 118 cubic feet per second, and provisions for additional purchasea of capacity as internal
district development dictated.
Prior to signing the negotiated contract between the City of Detroit and the County of
Oakland, the Detroit Water Board insisted that the fourteen member Communities construct a larger
interceptor than planned and under such urging the Dequindre Interceptor was expanded to provide 80
additional cubic feet per second capacity or a total facility capacity of 278 cubic feet per second.
The excess capacity of 80 cubic feet per second constructed in the Dequindre Interceptor
was intended by the City of Detroit to be made available for purchase by Communities adjacent to
the Southeastern District. This would include Communities to the North of the City of Troy and
Communities to the East of Troy. In its logic this plan would obviate the necessity for the con-
struction of additional parallel interceptor lines and lead to a more unified inter-county interceptor
system.
The Drain Committee of the Board, cognizant of the development of the Clinton-Oakland
Interceptor system to service Communities to the North of the Southeastern District, and knowledgeable
of an imminent request from the Oakland County Department of Public Works for sale or lease of excess
Dequindre Interceptor capacity, authorized the Drain Commissioner to contract for an engineering
evaluation study of the Southeastern District's sanitary capacity requirements. This study was
contracted for on November 4, 1956 and will be complete on December 31, 1967. Because of the urgency
of the Department of Public Works request for capacity, a preliminary report was requested from the
Engineers, a copy of which has been forwarded to each member of the Board of Supervisors prior to this
meeting. This preliminary report in its Recommendation section cautions the Southeastern District
to retain excess capacities within the system until such time as assurances may be given that sale
or lease of excess capacities will in no way act to the detriment of the District.
At a meeting of the Drain Committee, held on February 21, 1967, it was unanimously resolved
that excess capacity within the Dequindre Interceptor be retained pending submission of the final
engineering evaluation study by the consulting engineers.
The Drain Committee did not lightly come to this decision. It is the result of long months
of deliberation culminated by an independent engineering recommendation. Four members of the Drain
Committee represent Southeastern District Communities while three members are Township Supervisors.
Mr. Lee Valentine, Supervisor of Oxford Township, which Township is sorely pressed at present 'with
sanitary sewage problems in voting with the majority of the Committee, wished to stipulate that in
spite of the merit inherent in the Department of Public Works request to connect the Clinton-Oakland
Sewage Disposal System to the Dequindre Interceptor, the relief would be but temporary in nature.
Further, that a total solution to Northern Oakland County sewage disposal problems might better be
developed by joint cooperation with pending interceptor facilities to be constructed in Macomb County.
Mr. Chairman, on behalf of the Drain committee, I move that the foregoing report be received
and placed on file.

IN RE; S.I.C.C. 1967 LEGISLATIVE PROGRAM AND OTHER LEGISLATIVE ITEMS
To the Oakland County Board of Supervisors
Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen:
At its meeting on February 17, 1967, your Legislative Committee received the 1967 Legislative
Program of the Supervisors Inter-County Committee for consideration and recommendation. Copies of the
legislative program were forwarded to all members of this Board on March 3, 1967.
After considering the tentative S.I.C.C. program as submitted, it is your Committee's
recommendation that the 1957 Legislative Program of the Supervisors Inter-County Committee, including
the basic statement of policy, be approved except for the following items, and like action is
recommended to this Board:
1123 Supervisors Minutes Continued. March 9, 1967
Monroe County
Item 3. To modify the law on the burning and back cover of a sanitary landfill subject
to the approval of the local Health Department.
Wayne County
Item 5. Amendments to Secs. 22 and 154 of Act No. 206, P. A. 1893, as amended (The
General Property Tax Act) in order to secure legal authorization for auditing the taxpayers books
and records to assure complete discovery and valuation of personal property and to permit retro-
active taxation with appropriate penalties and interests for omitted personal property.
Item 6. Repeal of P. A. 410 and 411, 1965 Legislature; these acts provide for a
statement of the latest state equalized value on individual tax bills; the Bureau of Taxation
and the Equalization Committee believe that the information required to be placed on tax bills
and tax statements is not meaningful to the average taxpayer and will result in confusion and
require an unnecessary expenditure of additional public funds.
Macomb County
Item 1. Opposition to the Good Roads Bill, was not acted upon pending further
information.
Item 4. Legislation governing the removal of fishing shanties from Lake St. Clair.
Item 8. Legislation, if introduced, giving Health Departments immunity.

of the foregoing items.
A sufficient majority having voted therefor, the motion carried.
Your Legislative Committee considered other referred items from local units of govern-
ment and departments within the County and recommends support of the following:
Support for amendments to the Election Law which would make it possible to count Absent
Voters Ballots in a more efficient and expeditious manner by advancing the time for opening such
ballots from 7:00 P. M. to 4:00 P. M.
Expressing policy in favor of creating a moratorium of Act 87, Public Acts of 1965,
regarding local refuse dump sites, in those counties that have rubbish disposal programs or
will have future rubbish disposal programs.
Support of the Oakland County Township Supervisors Association resolution, wherein it
is requested that the Governor and the State Legislature combine their efforts in an immediate
study of the Michigan tax structure with a view to developing equity for all taxpayers, including
relief from the present oppressive real and personal taxes.
Support of legislation revising the formula to provide State aid to counties for basic
public health services from 35 per capita to the following:
45% of the first $100,000 expended by local health units
30% of the next $400,000
15% over $500,000
With $10,000 per county minimum
Favor legislation whereby the Board of Supervisors would be given the authority to
increase probate judgeships according to local need up to five (5) probate judges.
Supporting a statement of policy to be forwarded to the proper persons and agencies
regarding support of Foster Care legislation.
Mr. Chairman, on behalf of the Legislative Committee, I move the adoption of the
foregoing legislative report and the recommendations contained therein.

1967 SUPERVISORS INTER-COUNTY COMMITTEE LEGISLATIVE PROGRAM
BASIC STATEMENT OF POLICY OF THE LEGISLATIVE COMMITTEE
1. The Supervisors Inter-County Committee opposes the practice of the State Legislature
passing such legislation that obligates the units of local government to the expending of additional
funds without any provision to supplement such funds for the provision of the newly obligated
expenditures.
II. The Supervisors Inter-County Committee believes that revisions in the revenue system of
government should not occur on a piecemeal basis. As changes are contemplated, the state-local revenue
system must be viewed in its total perspective, and a balance of all relevant factors achieved. Four
broadly-defined criteria are suggested as a framework in which to develop changes in the revenue
structure for local government. These social, fiscal, administrative, and economic criteria being
met will enable local government to properly meet the needs of the people. If any of these criteria
are excluded in fiscal packages, local government will surely suffer in the abilities to properly
perform assigned responsibilities and duties.
MACOMB COUNTY PROGRAM
Macomb County recommends support of the following:
1. Legislation correcting the procedures that must be followed by Road Commissions in the
vacating of land previously purchased.
2. Legislation that will make the State compatible with the Federal Government in regard
to water pollution appropriations.

8. A bill to amend Act 336, Pubic Acts of 1947. in substance this proposed amendment would
be in the public interest in that it will ensnre the public that law enforcement officers shall not be
placed in a position of dividing their loyalties between their oath of office and their labor union
ties, when called upon to preserve the peace during labor disontes. The bill reads in part, as follows:
"Provided further, that employees of any police department or any agency engaged in or having the
responsibility of law enforcement work shall not join or belong to any labor organization or affiliate
that admits non-police employees to membership."
9. Amendatory legislation to Act 181, Public Acts of 1953, which would abolish the office of
Coroner and allow the Boards of Supervisors to establish the office of Medical Examiner through the
Health Board to carry out the Coroner's functions, and which also would define more clearly and
accurately said Medical Examiner's functions, was distributed. Members of the committee objected to
the h•lls provision of allowing morticians to perform the coroner's function in counties of less than
50,000 population. The committee recommended this section be deleted and substitutethe medical
examiner would be a physician or other qualified person appointed by the Board of Supervisors instead
of by election."
Oakland County recommends opposition to the following legislation:

1. H. B. 3203, as written in 1966, proposes a Metropolitan Transportation Authority and, in
the opinion of the Road Commission is premature in view of the current TALUS study.
2. Legislation that would make it mandatory for members of the Road Commission to be elected
rather than appointed.
3. Legislative efforts to finance activities that are remotely connected with road con-
struction and maintenance from the restricted Gas and Weight Tax funds, such activities as State Police,
Driver Education and so forth would deplete the already inadequate funds.
4. Any proposed legislation that would require the State Highway Department to reimburse
utility companies for any costs they might incur when required to remove their facilities from a public
road right-of-way, as this would open the door toward making a road authority pay for relocation costs
that would be an unjust expenditure of Public funds and would seriously curtail road construction.
5. Legislation introduced that would allow the use of metal tire studs in passenger and truck
tires. Studies by the State Highway Department are under way to determine the extent of damage which
these tire studs inflict on various pavements. Oakland County opposes any such legislation until such
time as additional evidence and information is available.
6. Legislation that would limit or eliminate the sale of "throw away" glass containers
commonly used for soft drinks, beer or other liquids not be supported.
WAYNE COUNTY PROGRAM
Wayne County supports the following legislation:
1. House Bill 2988 - Amendment to Act 218, P. A. 1956 (the Insurance Code) to provide that
no insurance company may write restrictions on the liability of the insurer in a policy affecting any
hospital of the State or any of its political subdivisions.
2. House Bill 2768 - Amendment to Section 2, P. A. 1956, Act 229; which contains a condition
for reimbursement to counties for temporary hospitalization of mental patients requiring the judge in
each case to make a finding that the person being committed has "manifested homicidal or other
dangerous tendencies"; language suggested in lieu thereof is that "it is essential and necessary for
the safety of the detainee and/or the safety of the public that he be so detained"; the Probate Court
hesitates to use.thenore severe language and under present appropriations it is estimated that Wayne
County could become eligible for receiving up to $100,000 at the present per diem reimbursement of
$14.00 for not to exceed 21 days.
3. House Bill 2670 - This bill would repeal Act 322, P. A. 1941, which presently authorizes
the Auditor General to cancel all taxes and special assessments on real properties acquired by the
United States Government between the date the tax roll is required to be completed and the date upon
which the lien for such taxes attaches to the property; your Committee again endorsed this legislation
on the basis that Act 322 of 1941 is not only inconsistent with the policy of uniform tax day provided
for in the General Tax Law, but is now being used as a basis for minimizing payments-in-lieu-of-taxes
to Michigan governmental units as compared with payments to units in other states which adhere con-
sistently to the tax day principle.
4. Amendments to Act 254, P. A. 1905, Act 177, P. A. 1925, and Act 115, P. A. 1929, to secure
increase in State reimbursement for treatment of tubercular patients from current $6.00 per patient
day to 100% of cost;-Committee approved introduction of new legislation; increase secured in 1965 from
$4.00 to $6.00 per patient day but T. B. costs approximate $18.00 to $20.00 per patient day and it is
the Committee's opinion that the State should bear at least 50% of this cost.
5. Amendments to Secs. 22 and 154 of Act No. 206, P. A. 1893, as amended (The General Property
Tax Act) in order to secure legal authorization for auditing the taxpayers books and records to assure
complete discovery and valuation of personal property and to permit retroactive taxation with appro-
priate penalties and interests for omitted personal property; this proposal was approved by the Board
of Supervisors April 27, 1965, but due to legislative deadlines could not be introduced at the time.
6. Repeal of P. A. 410 and 411, 1905 Legislature; these acts provide for a statement of the
latest state equalized value on individual tax bills; the Bureau of Taxation and the Equalization
Committee believe that the information required to be placed on tax bills and tax statements is not
meaningful to the average taxpayer and will result in confusion and require an unnecessary expenditure
of additional public funds.
7. A bill requiring the State to assume the full cost of the office rent of the Bureau of
Social Aid and Social Welfare Department.
Wayne County recommends opposition to the following;
941-66, legislation proposed to change the concept of perfecting security interests in
vehicles by eliminating the necessity for filing of automobile liens in the Register of Deeds office
where a statute provides for a notation on the certificate of title of security interests. Notation
is presently required on the title, presently filed with the Secretary of State, under the provisions
of the Motor Vehicle Code, and that the enactment of this proposal would result in an estimated loss
of $225,000 annually to Wayne County.
WASHTENAW COUNTY PROGRAM
A resolution from Washtenaw County proposing legislation to limit the abandonment of motor
vehicles is noted as received.

(c) After the board of supervisors has adopted a bond resolution, the board will take all
necessary procedures to obtain the approvals necessary to the issuance of the bonds described herein
by the Municipal Finance Commission of the State of Michigan, obtain construction bids for the project,
and enter into construction contracts with the lowest responsible bidders, and sell and deliver one
or more series of the bonds in manner authorized by law, and acquire the System.
5. It is understood and agreed by the parties hereto that the System is to serve the munici-
palities and not the individual property owners and users thereof, unless by special agreement between
the board and the municipality in which the property is located, and except for the existing county
sewage disposal systems which are hereby made arms of this System and shall be used and operated in
the same manner as exists at the effective date of this contract. The responsibility of collecting
sewage and delivering same to the sanitary sewage interceptors of the System shall be that of the
several municipalities which shall cause to be constructed and maintained the additional facilities
for such collection and delivery not provided for in this contract. The county shall not be obli-
gated by this contract to serve any area outside the District as described in paragraph 2 hereof, or
to construct any facilities other than those described in paragraphs 2 and 3 hereof as the project.
6. The initial construction stage of the System is designed to accept a maximum rate of
flow from each of the municipalities as specified in the schedule attached hereto and marked Exhibit
"C" and each of such municipalities shall be limited in the use of the System to the specific max-
imum rate of flow limited to each by said schedule.
7. Included in the maximum rate of flow assigned to each of the municipalities in the
System as listed in said schedule attached hereto and marked EXhibit"C", is the flow from the
existing county sewage disposal systems, which now become arms of the System except for that arm
(i.e. Lake Orion Sewage Disposal System) which will not be served by the facilities in the initial
stage of construction of the System.
8. The term "cost" as used herein shall be construed to include the cost of all physical
structures, the acquisition of property for sites and rights-of-way (including consequential and
abuttal damages, if any, and interest on awards), the acquisition of all labor and materials necessary
to acquire and construct the project, flowage rights in other systems, engineering and legal fees,
administration expenses during the period of construction, financing costs, a reasonable amount for
contingencies, interest on the series of bonds to be issued therefor for a period not exceeding the
estimated construction period and six months thereafter, and any other costs incident to the
acquisition and financing of the project. The cost of the project to the municipalities (here-
inafter referred to for brevity as the "municipal cost"), is determined and agreed to be a sum
equal to the amount of bonds issued by the county. Each of said municipalities shall pay its
proportionate share of the principal of and interest on said bonds so issued, which proportionate
share shall be determined by applying to said payments becoming due, as hereinafter provided, a sum
equal to that produced by applying the percentages of cost set forth on Exhibit "Cu attached hereto
which take into consideration the transfer to this System of all of the facilities of the MSU-Oakland
Sewage Disposal System and the payment in full of the outstanding revenue bond indebtedness thereof.
When the System is completed and final costs are determined, and if any series of bonds was issued
to finance a part thereof, a composite percentage shall be calculated based on such final costs and
such composite percentage Shall thereafter be used to determine the payments to be made by the
municipalities involved, and any over-payments or under-payments theretofore made by the munici-
palities shall be calculated and adjusted by credits, transfers or payments as required. It is
further understood that said percentages shall not necessarily apply to subsequent stages of con-
struction of the System and that no change in percentages hereafter agreed to by reason of con-
struction of subsequent stages shall relieve any of the municipalities as to its obligations with
respect to any series of the bonds issued at this time by the county.
9. No change in the jurisdiction over any territory in any municipality which is a party
to this contract shall in any manner impair the obligations of this contract based upon the full
faith and credit of such municipality. In the event all or any part of the territory in the District
and in any municipality which is a party to this contract is incorporated as a new city or is annexed
to or becomes a part of the territory of another municipality, the municipality into which such
territory is incorporated, or to which such territory is annexed, shall assume the proper propor-
tionate share of the contractual obligation and maximum rate of flow (c.f.s.) of the municipality
from which such territory is taken, based upon a division determined by the board, which shall make
such determination after taking into consideration all factors necessary to make the division
equitable, and in addition shall in the case of partial incorporation or annexation, prior to such
determination, receive a written recommendation as to the proper division from a committee composed
of one representative designated by the governing body of the municipality from which the territory
is taken, one designated by the governing body of the new municipality or the municipality annexing
such territory, and one independent registered engineer appointed by the board. Each municipality
shall appoint its representative within fifteen (15) days after being notified to do so by the board
and within a like time the board shall appoint the engineer third member. If any municipality shall
fail to appoint its representative within the time above provided, then the board may proceed without
said recommendation. If the committee shall not make its recommendation within forty-five (45) days
after its appointment or within any extension thereof by the board, then the board may proceed without
such recommendation. In the consideration of the matters herein provided, including the designation
of the third member of the committee, any member of the board who is also an official of either
affected municipality shall be disqualified to act or vote.

herein expressed shall be appiicahle to all bonds issued by the county to pay the municipal cost of the
project, as herein defined, whether issued at one time or at more than one time. If any municipality
shall fail to make any of such payments when due, the amount thereof shall be subject to a penalty
of one-half of one per cent (1/2 of 1) for each month or fraction thereof that the same remains
unpaid after the due date. Any municipality may pay in advance of maturity all or any part of an
annual installment by surrendering to the county bonds issued in anticipation of the payments to be
made under this contract, of a like principal amount maturing in the same calendar year, with all
future due interest coupons attached thereto,
11. In the event that any municipality shall fail for any reason to pay to the hoard at the
times specified, the amounts herein recuired to be paid, the hoard shall immediately notify, in
writing both the County Treasurer of the County of Oakland and the governing body of such municipality
of such default and the amount thereof, and if such default is not corrected within ten (10) days

due obligations of the municipalities to which said moneys are owed. In addition to the foregoing,
the board shall have all other rights and remedies provided by law to enforce the obligation of the
municipalities to make payments in the manner and at the times required by this contract. It is
specifically recognized by each of the municipalities that the payments required to be made by it
pursuant to the terms of this contract are to be pledged for the payment of principal of and interest
on bonds to be issued by the county, and each of the municipalities covenants and agrees that it will
make its required payments to the board promptly and at the times herein specified, without regard
as to whether the project herein contemplated is actually completed or placed in operation.
12. After completion of the project and payment of all costs thereof, any surplus remaining
in the construction fund, whether derived from the proceeds of sale of the bonds issued or any other
source, shall be used to call such bonds to the extent bonds are then callable, or shall be credited
to the respective obligations of the municipalities hereunder with respect to such bonds or shall be
used to purchase bonds of such series on the open market, and in such event the contract obligation
of the respective municipalities shall be reduced by the percentage (as specified in paragraph 8 of
this contract) of such municipality's amount of the said credit or of the bonds so purchased or
redeemed for the year or years of maturity of said bonds. Any bonds so purchased or redeemed shall
be cancelled.
13. If the proceeds of the sale of the original bonds to be issued by the county are for
any reason insufficient to cemplete tae project in accordance with the plans and specifications therefor,
the board shall, if necessary, siAbmit to the Board of Supervisors of Oakland County a resolution pro-
viding for the issuance of additional bonds in an amount necessary to provide funds to pay the municipal
cost of completing the said project, in which event the duties and obligations of the board and the
municipalities as expressed and set forth in paragraph 8 of this contract shall be applicable to such
additional series of bonds as well as the original series, it being at all times fully recognized and
agreed that the payments to be made by the municipalities in the proportions specified in paragraph B
of this contract, in the manner specified in paragraph 10 of this contract, shall be based upon the
municipal cost of the project. In lieu of the issuance of such additional bonds, any other method
may be agreed upon by the county and the municipalities to provide the necessary funds to complete
the said project.
14. Each township which is a party to this contract, pursuant to the authorization of
paragraph (2), Section 12 of Act 1I7.5, Public Acts of Michigan, 1957, as amended, does hereby pledge
its full faith and credit for the prompt and timely payment of its obligations expressed in this
contract, and shall each year, commencing with the year 1968, levy a tax in an amount which, taking
into consideration estimated delinquencies in tax collections, will. be sufficient to pay its obli-
gations under this contract becoming due before the time of the following year's tax collections:
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if at the time of making such annual tax levy there shall be other funds on
hand earmarked and set aside for the payment of said contractual, obligations falling due prior to
the next tax collection period, then the annual tax levy may be reduced by such amount. Each township
further covenants and agrees that it wilt, from time to time, raise sufficient sums to pay its
obligations by use of one or more of the methods authorized by the provisions of paragraph (2),

party hereto and has no contractual rights to use or be served by the System as of the effective date
of this contract, and the county and said township hereby covenant and agree to hold the said village
harmless from any liability, including legal fees and expenses arising out of any litigation in which
the foregoing limitation of ad valorem taxation is challenged or contested.
15. This contract is contingent upon the county issuing its negotiable bonds, as set forth
in subdivision (b) of paragraph a of this eontract, to defray the estimated municipal cost of the
project, which bends shall be issued under the authorization provided in paragraph (1), subparagraph
(b), Section 11 of said Act 185, Public Aets of Michigan 17, as amended.
16. The county, subject to the terms of this contract, shall operate and maintain said
System and, upon completion of the project, shall accept for transportation and disposal the sewage
from the areas to be served by said System. Each of the municipalities snail, however, be limited
in the amount of sewage to be delivered to the System by the maximum rate of flow specified to each
in Exhibit "C" of this contract, and after such maximum rate of flow has been reached, the county
shall permit no new lateral sewers to be connected to the sanitary sewers of the System, or to any
sewer connected directly or indirectly to the sanitary sewers of such System. Each municipality
shall have the right to use the capacity in the System allocated t.o it under the provisions of this
contract within their respective corporate limits as now or hereafter established subject to the
provisions of paragraph 9 hereof. Any municipality which is a party to this contract may by agree-
ment with any other municipality which is a party to this contract assign any part of Its allocated
maximum rate of flow (c.f.s.) to such other municipality upon such terms and conditions as may be
agreed upon, and subject to the approval of the board, provided, however, that such assignment and
agreement shall in no way effect, change or in any way diminish the obligations of such municipalities
as set forth in this contract. The county, the Township of Avon and the Village of Rochester may, by
a separate contract between the throe units of government only, agree as to the continuance of service
of areas in the township through the village sewage disposal system where such service is desirable
and necessary from an engineering standpoint and so long as capacity to do so exists in the said
village system and such separate contract may also provide for exchanges of areas between the county
system and the village system, and for availability to all, such areas of transportation to and treat-
ment of sewage by the City of Detroit. Such separate contracts may be amended as needed by the
respective units of government only which are parties thereto.
17. In addition to the payment of its respective obligations for the municipal cost of the
project heretofore specified in this contract, each of the municipalities shall also pay to the
county such charges for sewage disposal services as shall be established by the board from time to
time, which charges shall be sufficient to provide:
(a) For all costs of operating and maintaining the System, including the cost of
• sewage disposal services through and by connection to the City of Detroit Sewage Disposal
System.
(b) For the establishment and maintenance of a fund in such amount as shall be
determined by the board, for the repair, replacement anc improvements of the physical
assets of the System.
(c) For any other proper costs and expenses relating to said System or the financing
thereof.
18. Service charges by the ceunty for sewage disposal shall be made to each municipality
upon the basis of a schedule of rates and charges promulgated from time to time by the board. Any
rates and charges specified in any such schedule shall be subject to increase by the board at any
time if necessary in order to provide funds to meet the obligations expressed in Section 17 of this
contract.
19. The charges for sewage disposal services shall be payable monthly or quarterly as shall
be determined by the board. If' any municipality does not pay its sewage disposal service charge on
the date when the same becomes due, then there shall be added to such charge a penalty of one per
cent (U) for each month or fraction thereof for which the same remains unpaid_ The payment of such
sewage disposal service charges for each municipality shall be the general obligation of such munici-
pality, and the board shall have the right to utilize any method permitted by law for the collection
of such charges due the county under this contract.
20. Each of the municipalities reserves the right te establish rates to be collected from
its individual users in an amount sufficient to pay Its sewage disposal service charges to the county
when due. Such rates may be fixed and established in such amounts as will produce additional moneys
for such municipality to be used for any lawful. purposes, pertaining to sewage disposal or to sewage
disposal and water supply in event of a joint municipal system.
21. It shall be the obligation of each of the municipalities to provide the necessary sanitary
sowers to transport its sewage from the District to be served to the System or to cause the same to
be provided by agreement with the county. All connections to the sanitary sewer interceptors of the
System made during the construction of the project, or after the completion thereof, shall be made
by the municipality so connecting, at its expense, after first securing a permit therefor from the
board. No municipality party to this contract shall allow to continuo in existence or hereafter
construct or permit the continued existence or construct on hereafter of any public sanitary sewer
in any of the areas to be served by the System, which does not connect directly or indirectly to the
System, or construct or permit the construetion of any new sewage treatment plant or facility or
septic tank or tile field within such areas without the approval of the beard, but this prohibition

shall not apply to any areas in or to be served by the City of Pontiac or in the Village of Rochester
nor to the areas or users covered by any separate contract between the county, the Township of Avon
and the Village of Rochester.
22. The project shall be designed and constructed so that areas being served at the time of
the execution of this contract by combined sewers may continue to be served by such combined sewers.
Consistent with the foregoing provisions, the Board of Public Works shall establish genera] regulations
controlling the discharge of combined sewage into the System. Each of the municipalities expressly
agrees that, except as permitted by such regulations, no storm water sewers shall be connected directly
to the sanitary sewers of the System, or to any sanitary sewers connected, directly or indirectly, to
the sanitary sewers of said System and that prior to using any of the facilities in the System and as
a condition precedent to such use, each municipality shall adopt an ordinance in a form approved by
the board, prohibiting the entry of storm water into the System from any areas served thereby in the
municipality. The board does expressly agree that except for those areas now served by combined sewers
it will take all available steps and actions to prohibit the entry of any storm water into the System
coming from sewers or other systems under the control of any public corporation or agency thereof.
23. The board shall have the right to deny the use of the sanitary sewer interceptors of
the System to any municipality which shall be delinquent for a period of ninety (90) days in the pay-
ment of any of the payments or charges due from it to the county cr which shall be in default with
respect to any other covenant or obligation set forth in this contract while such delinquency or
default continues. The foregoing may he accomplished by blocking off the sewers discharging sewage
directly or indirectly into the System, or by any other lawful means.
24. Each municipality shall he responsible for the character of the sewage originating
therein and shall comply with the board's standards and regulations controlling the discharge of
industrial and/or commercial type wastes into the System. If the character of sewage contributed
from any municipality shall be such that it imposes an unreasonable additional burden upon the System,
then an additional charge shall be made over and above the regular service charge, or it may be required
that such sewage be treated before being emptied into the System, or the right to empty said sewage
into the System may be denied, if necessary, for the protection of the said System or the public health
or safety.
25. The county and the municipalities each recognize that the holders from time to time of
any of the bonds issued by the county under the provisions of said Act 185, Public Acts of Michigan,
1957, as amended, and secured by the full faith and credit pledges of the munitipalities to the
making of their proportionate payments as set forth in this contract, will have contractual rights in
this contract and it is therefore covenanted and agreed by each of them that so long as any of said
bonds shall remain outstanding and unpaid, the provisions of this contract shall not be subject to
any alteration or revision which would in any manner adversely affect either the security of the bonds
or the prompt payment of principal or interest thereon. The municipalities and the board further
covenant and agree that they will each comply with their respective duties and obligations under the
terms of this contract promptly, at the times and in the manner herein set forth, and will not suffer
to be done any act which would in any way impair the said bonds, the security therefor, or the prompt
payment of principal and interest thereon. It is hereby declared that the terms of this contract,
insofar as they pertain to the security of any such bonds, shall be deemed to be for the benefit of
the holders of said bonds.
26. This contract shall become effective upon approval by the legislative bodies of each of
the municipalities, by the Board of Public Works of Oakland County, and by the Board of Supervisors
of Oakland County, and duly executed by the authorized officers of each of the municipalities and of
the Board of Public Works. It shall terminate fifty (50) years from the date of this contract. This
contract may be executed in several counterparts. The provisions of this contract shall be in full
force and effect and binding upon the successors and assigns of the parties hereto.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF the parties hereto have caused this contract to be executed and delivered
by their respective duly authorized officers, all as of the day and year first above written.

corporated or to which such territory is annexed, shall assume the proper proportionate share of the
contractual obligation of the Township to the County, and of the contractual right of the Township
to water supply service hereunder, such proportionate share to be determined by the Board of Public

body of the municipality from which the territory is taken, one designated by the governing body of
the new municipality or the municipality annexing such territory, and one independent registered
engineer appointed by the Board. Each municipality shall appoint its representative within fifteen
(15) days after being notified to do so by the Board and within a like time the Board shall appoint

time above provided, then the Board may proceed without said recommendation. If the commdttee shall .
not make its recommendation within forty-five (45) days after its appointment or with any extension
thereof by the Board, then the Board may proceed without such recommendation. In the consideration
of the matters herein provided, including the designation of the third member of the committee, any
member of the Board who is also an official of either affected municipality shall be disqualified
to act or vote. If territory in the Township not served by this Northeast Section is incorporated
as a city or annexed to another municipality, such territory shall remain subject to the levy of a
tax to support the full faith and credit pledge of the Township to pay its obligations to the County
at the same time and to the same extent as all other territory now or then in the Township.

bonds to be issued by the County under the provisions of said Act No. 185, Michigan Public Acts of
1957, as amended, and secured by the full faith and credit pledge of the Township to the making of

revision which would in any manner affect either the security of the bonds or the prompt payment of
principal or interest thereon. The Township and the County further covenant and agree that they will
each comply promptly with their respective duties and obligations under the terms of this contract at
the times and in the manner herein set forth, and will not suffer to be done any act which would in

Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen:
I offer the following resolution which was approved by the Board of Public Works at their
meeting of March 9, 1967.
BE IT RESOLVED that the Agreement dated as of February 15, 1967, entitled Amendment to
Agreement, Farmington and Evergreen Sewage Disposal Systems, Walnut Lake Arm, dated as of August 15,
1965, is hereby approved as to form and substance and the Chairman and Secretary of the Board of

AMENDMENT TO AGREEMENT - FARMINGTON AND EVERGREEN SEWAGE DISPOSAL SYSTEMS - WALNUT LAKE ARM
THIS AGREEMENT made as of this 15th day of February, 1967, by and between the COUNTY OF
OAKLAND, a Michigan county corporation (hereinafter called the "county"), by and through its Board
of Public Works, party of the first part, and the TOWNSHIP OF WEST BLOOMFIELD, TOWNSHIP OF BLOOMFIELD
and the TOWNSHIP OF FARMINGTON, municipal corporations in the County of Oakland (hereinafter called
the "municipalities"), parties of the second part.
WITNESSETH:
WHEREAS under date of August 15, 1965, the county and the municipalities entered into an
Agreement providing for the construction by the county of an extension to the Farmington and Ever-
green Sewage Disposal System designated Walnut Lake Arm and for the payment of the entire cost thereof
by the said municipalities pursuant to said Agreement and Act No. 185 of the Michigan Public Acts of

Supervisors Minutes Continued. March 9, 1967 1147
thereto and the method of payment being set forth in Exhibit "C" thereto, and
WHEREAS subsequent to the execution of said Agreement the county authorized the issuance of
bonds in the amount of $1,737,000 to finance the acquisition of said Arm and obtained construction
bids therefor and applied for and obtained the approval of the Municipal Finance Commission of the
State of Michigan to the issuance and sale of said bonds, but due to construction bids received,
which are higher than cost estimates, and due to the passage of time it is now necessary to change
the estimate of cost of the project from $1,737,000 to $1,975,000 and to change the Agreement and
bond dates for payment and maturity, and
WHEREAS the Department of Public Works (hereinafter sometimes referred to as the "DPW") has
prepared revisions of the estimate of cost for the said Arm which revised estimate of cost is attached
hereto as Revised Exhibit "B" and by this reference made a part hereof, and has prepared a revised
schedule of the payments to be made by the municipalities which revised schedule is attached hereto as
Revised Exhibit "C" and by this reference made a part hereof, and
WHEREAS in order to carry out the acquisition of said Arm it is necessary that this Amend-
ment to Agreement be entered into by the parties hereto.
THEREFORE IT IS HEREBY AGREED BY AND BETWEEN THE PARTIES HERETO, as follows:
1. The revised estimate of cost of the Walnut Lake Arm as prepared by the DPW is approved
and adopted in the amount of $1,975,000 as set forth on Exhibit "B" hereto attached. The said Arm
shall consist of sewers located approximately as set forth and generally shown on Exhibit "A" attached
to the Agreement of August 15, 1965, and paragraph 1 of said Agreement is hereby amended to this extent.
2. Paragraphs 4 and 5 of said Agreement of August 15, 1965, are hereby amended to read as
follows:
4. Each of said municipalities shall pay to the county, to cover the capital cost of the
Walnut Lake Arm, a sum equal to that produced by applying the following percentages to the capital
cost thereof, to-wit:
Township of West Bloomfield 84.6042%
Township of Bloomfield 15.3054%
Township of Farmington .0904
Total 100.000Z
The term "capital cost" as above used, shall include all items of cost of the type set forth
in the Revised Exhibit "B" attached hereto and any other items of cost of a similar nature as may be
set forth in any further revision of Exhibit "B" agreed to by the parties hereto, incurred by the county
in acquiring and constructing the Arm.
5. The amount to be paid by each municipality shall be divided into annual installments,
numbered in direct order of their maturities. The aggregate amount of each installment, the division
thereof between the municipalities and the date of payment of each installment are set forth in the
Revised Exhibit "C" hereto attached and by this reference made a part hereof. Said installments shall
be due in consecutive numerical order on the first day of April in each year as shown on Revised
Exhibit "C", and all amounts thereof from time to time unpaid, shall bear interest from April 1, 1968,
at the rate of b% per annum until paid, payable on April 1, 1969, and on the first day of April in
each year thereafter. Interest accruing prior to April 1, 1968, has been capitalized as part of the
county bond issue. If the amount of interest due on April 1 of any year on unpaid installments, shall
be collected by the county in excess of the amount of interest which the county shall be required to
pay upon its said bonds prior to the next contract payment installment due date, then any such excess
in the amount so paid after deducting the annual fees and expenses connected with the payment of said
bonds, shall be credited pro rata to the municipalities in accordance with the several amounts of
interest paid by them in such year, which credit shall be applied on the next interest becoming due.
If any municipality shall fail to pay any installment or interest when the same becomes due, then the
amount thereof shall be subject to a penalty, in addition to interest, of 1/2 of 1% for each month
or fraction thereof that the same remains unpaid after the due date. Each municipality may pay in
advance of maturity all or any part of an annual installment by surrendering to the county bonds issued
in anticipation of payments to be made under this contract, of a like principal amount maturing in the
same calendar year, with all future due interest coupons attached thereto. Accrued interest upon the
amount so paid upon any installment, and accrued interest upon the bonds surrendered, shall be adjusted
to the date of surrender and any difference shall be paid in cash. All surrendered bonds and coupons
shall be canceled.
3. This Amendment to Agreement shall become effective upon being approved by the legislative
bodies of the municipalities and by the board of public works and board of supervisors of Oakland
County and properly executed by the officers of the municipalities and of the board of public works.
As amended hereby the said Agreement of August 15, 1965, and the Base Agreements to which said Agree-
ment refers, shall continue and be in full force and effect.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF the parties hereto have caused this Amendment to Agreement to be executed
and delivered by their respective duly authorized officers, all as of the day and year first above written.

services.

By Mr. Lahti
IN RE: REPORT ON MERGER OF COUNTY SOCIAL SERVICES DEPARTMENT WITH STATE BUREAU OF SOCIAL AID
To the Oakland County Board of Supervisors
Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen:
This is a follow-up report on Miscellaneous Resolution No. 4581, adopted by this Board on
September 19, 1966, which requested the integration of the services being performed here at our
Oakland County Service Center by two distinct organizations - the Social Services Department of the
County of Oakland and the Oakland County Bureau of Social Aid of the Michigan State Department of
Social Services.
That resolution provided the green light upon which both the State Department and our
County Department could proceed with the painstaking task of integrating the County's welfare
workers into the State's civil service system in such a manner as to have minimal adverse effects
on the County's personnel and yet be within the statutes and regulations controlling the State
Department.
The personnel transfers were consummated on March 19, 1967, when 62 County employees were
moved onto the State payroll. The transition was accomplished so smoothly as to give no outward
indication of the hours and hours of careful planning and negotiation that had been going on during
the previous year or so, particularly since last September's decision by the Board.
Most of the County's welfare employees emerged from the integration with a modest salary
increase, averaging about three per cent. Not one employee suffered financially, as the Board in
its wisdom had seen it proper to include in its resolution last September a provision that the
County would augment the salaries of those transferees who could not be accommodated at their
existing rates of pay in the State's civil service salary schedules. Indeed it has been necessary
to invoke that provision, but in the eases of only 13 employees and in a gross amount of $1,793.03-
certainly an insignificant sum when contrasted with the magnitude of the total payroll of the
positions transferred to the State.
On Friday, March 17, 1967, your Welfare Committee had as its guest Robert Johnson, Field
Services Supervisor for Bernard Houston, Director of the Michigan Department of Social Services.
Mr. Johnson explained the details of the imminent integration and paid high tribute to the thoroughness
diligence and cooperation of the County's Director, Douglas H. Hoard, whose appointment as Director
of the combined operations was announced that same date by Mr. Houston. Thus, while the County of
Oakland loses an able administrator from its staff, we can take pride in having helped to develop
such talent, and we can rest assured that the citizens of Oakland County will be served well, by an
organization headed by a local product.
The transfer of personnel was not the only item of apprehension to us on the Board last
summer. In fact, these recent personnel transactions do not mean that the final organizational
pattern of the newly integrated department has been fixed. There will continue to be internal
movements of positions and units as the embryonic organization adapts itself to the demands of the
1103
Supervisors Minutes Continued- April Ii., 7967
times. And you and I, as taxpayers into the coffers of the State of Michigan as well as those of the
County of Oakland, certainly would expect such further moves in the interest of efficiency and
effectiveness.
Among the other items of concern to the Board was the continued existence of the welfare
office in the south end of the County. In this regard your Welfare Committee has been assured by both
the state's representative and the new County Director that the concept of providing services to
welfare clients at locations closer to their domiciles was not only approved but, quite interestingly,
may very well be expanded. The south end office will service not only direct assistance clients but
probably the whole gamut of the so-called categorical cases. And further, as future demands might
make advisable, outposts of the new Department might be established in still other locations In the
County-.
Another apprehension of the Hoard was the possibility that an agency directed out of Lansing
would not be flexible enough to meet such emergency demands as, for example, those resulting from a
sudden mass lay-off by our large industries. Again, your Welfare Committee was assured by Mr. Johnson
that the local office would have no difficulty in authorizing emergency overtime for its staff or in
securing permission to add temporary help.
Finally, as to thealiatter of dollar savings accruing to the County, finalized information
is not yet available for the past periods of time involved in the sharing of costs. However, as for
future months, savings to the County, predicated on so-called "County" cases comprising 25 per cent
of the case load and on the March 19 allotments of personnel, are indicated at approximately $69,000
a year. Regardless of whether the figure turns out to be either more or less, those persons who
have been closest to the problems of integration have not claimed that the Ccunty's costs for welfare
would actually be reduced by the integration. Among the variables which make such predictions unreal-
istic are: (1) economic factors affecting the case load for direct assistance, (2) the yardsticks which
may be used in the future in determining the State-County formula for sharing costs, (3) State-determined
salary schedules and fringe benefits of welfare workers, (4) new or expanded welfare programs resulting
from federal or state legislation, or indeed from local County initiative. In any case, even if
integration had not taken place, the likelihood of increased welfare costs would have been a definite
possibility. The comparison of two moving cost figures, one of which will be a matter of fact and the
other for a hypothetical non-existent County welfare department, is at best a hazardous venture. At
the moment we simply do not have the data upon which to base a conclusive answer.
One final note: The Welfare Committee believes it appropriate that the record of the pro-
ceedings of this Board reveal that the County official who so successfully steered an efficiently
operating and forward-looking County department into a more or less inevitable merger with the State
department, where he undoubtedly will continue to administer in a similarly commendable fashion, was
Douglas H. Hoard.
Mr. Chairman, I move that the foregoing report be received and placed on file.
WELFARE COMMITTEE
R. W. Lahti, Chairman
Moved by Lahti supported by Edward the report be received and placed on file.
A sufficient majority having voted therefor, the motion carried.
Nominations in order for one member of the Board of Jury Commissioners.
Mr. O'Donoghue nominated John L. Carey. Mr. Grisdale seconded the nomination.
Moved by Frid supported by Hursfall that nominations be closed, the rules suspended, and
the Clerk be instructed to cast the unanimous vote of the Board for John L. Carey.
A sufficient majority having voted therefor, the motion carried.
John L. Carey declared elected a member of the Board of Jury Commissioners to fill the
vacancy and for a two-year term expiring April 30, 1969.

located approximately as set forth and generally shown on Exhibit "A" hereto attached which shall
collect sanitary sewage and deliver the same by connection to sewers in the City of Pontiac, for
treatment and disposal in said city pursuant to the contractual arrangements between the said township
and city. The said plans and specifications and estimate of cost shall be submitted to the county board
of supervisors, together with an ordinance or resolution, approved by the Oakland County Board of Public
Works, providing for the issuance of bonds by the county as hereinafter provided, in an aggregate
principal sum not exceeding the amount of the capital cost as hereinafter defined. If such bond

award the construction contracts and to issue the bonds, and shall cause the project to be constructed
within a reasonable time thereafter. The DPW shall take all necessary action in constructing the
laterals to comply and continue compliance with the requirements of the City of Pontiac applicable
thereto.
2. The said Waterford Pontiac Laterals (herein sometimes referred to as the "project") are
designed for, and shall be used for, the collection and transportation of sanitary sewage only.
Said project may be divided into sections by the DPW for purposes of construction and the letting of
construction contracts.
3. The said Laterals are designed so that along with existing sewers in the area, said
Laterals will serve certain parts of the Township of Waterford located in the District and immediately
adjacent to the City of Pontiac which areas are now being and will hereafter continue to be served
by connection to the City of Pontiac. Properties within said township to be served by said Laterals
shall be connected to the Laterals only upon such terms and conditions as are prescribed by the city
or by the township, as may be appropriate, in addition to the terms and conditions prescribed in this
agreement. The county or the city or the township shall not permit the discharge into said Laterals
of any sewage in violation of this agreement or in violation of the aforementioned Agreement with the
City of Pontiac, as amended.
4. The municipality shall pay to the county, to cover the capital cost of the Laterals, the
capital cost thereof, now estimated as set forth on Exhibit "B".
The term "capital cost" as above used, shall include all -items of cost of the type set forth
in Exhibit "B" attached hereto and any other items of cost of a similar nature as may be set forth in
any revision of Exhibit "B" agreed to by the parties hereto, incurred by the county in acquiring and
constructing the Laterals.
5. It is understood and agreed by the parties hereto that the Laterals are to serve the
municipality and not the individual property owners and users thereof', unless by special agreement
between the board and the municipality. The county shall not be obligated by this contract to serve
any area not connected to the facilities of the City of Pontiac pursuant to the aforementioned
Agreement dated July 8, 1958, as amended as of July 12, 1966, or to construct any facilities other
than those described in paragraphs 1 and 2 hereof as the project.
b. The amount to be paid by the municipality shall be divided into not to exceed thirty
(30) annual installments, numbered in direct order of their maturities. The amount of each install-
ment is set forth in Exhibit "C" hereto attached and by this reference made a part hereof. Said
installments shall be due in consecutive numerical order on the first day of April in each year,
beginning with the year 1968, and all amounts thereof from time to time unpaid, shall bear interest
from the date of the bonds to be issued by the county, at the rate per annum of interest borne by
said bonds, payable on April 1, 1968, and on the first day of April and October in each year there-
after. In addition, the municipality shall pay in each year on said dates the amount of paying
agent fees and other bond handling and financing charges payable by the county with respect to the
county bonds and the payment thereof. If the municipality shall fail to pay any installment or
interest when the same becomes due, then the amount thereof shall be subject to a penalty, in addition
to interest, of one-half of one percent (1/2 of 1%) for each month or fraction thereof that the same
remains unpaid after the due date. The municipality may pay in advance of maturity all or any part
of an annual installment by surrendering to the county, bonds issued in anticipation of payments to
be made under this contract, of a like principal amount maturing in the same calendar year,with all
future due interest coupons attached thereto. Accrued interest upon the amount so paid upon any
installment, and accrued interest upon the bonds surrendered, shall be adjusted to the date of
surrender and any difference shall be paid in cash. All surrendered bonds and coupons shall be
cancelled.
7. The payment mentioned in paragraph 4 above shall be computed upon the estimated cost
until the actual cost has been determined. If the actual cost shall be less than the estimated cost,
then any surplus from the sale of bonds therefor shall be used to enlarge, extend or improve the
Laterals, if the Board of Supervisors of the county so direct by resolution, or shall be used to
purchase such bonds on the open market, and in such event the installment from the municipality in
the year or in each of the years in which the bonds so purchased mature, shall be reduced by the
principal amount of such bonds and the municipality shall be credited accordingly. Any bonds so
purchased shall be cancelled. The estimated cost above referred to shall be that set forth in
Exhibit "B" hereto or as revised prior to the issuance of bonds. If the actual cost shall be greater
than the estimated cost, then the additional amount shall be charged to the municipality and the
several then remaining installments for the municipality shall be increased accordingly.
The municipality does hereby pledge its full faith and credit for the prompt payment of
the aforesaid obligations and shall each year levy a tax in an amount which taking into consideration
estimated delinquencies in tax collections, will be sufficient for the prompt payment of any amount
falling due before the time of the following year's tax collection,unless at the time of making such
annual levy there shall be cash on hand (as provided for in paragraph (2), Section 12, of Act No.
185 of the Michigan Public Acts of 1)57, as amended) earmarked for the payment of the current obli-
gations for which the tax levy is to be made, in which case the annual tax levy may be reduced by
that amount. Funds for which credit may be so taken, may be raised in the manner provided in para-
graph (2), Section 12, of said Act No. 145 of the Michigan Public Acts of 1957, as now existing or
hereafter amended, it being understood that the municipality intends to raise such funds by special
assessments and/or sewage disposal connection and service charges.
9. The county shall issue its negotiable bonds to defray the capital cost of said Laterals
which bonds shall be secured primarily by the full faith and credit pledges of the municipality, and

of the members elect of the board of supervisors, as provided for in paragraph (2), Section 11 of said
Act No. 185 of the Michigan Public Acts of 1957, as amended. Said bonds shall be issued pursuant to
the provisions of said act and the applicable general statutes of the state where not in conflict with
said act.
10. No change in the jurisdiction over any territory in the municipality shall in any manner
impair the obligations of this contract based upon the full faith and credit of the municipality. In
the event all or any part of the territory in the District and in the municipality which is a party to
this contract is incorporated as a new city or is annexed to or becomes a part of the territory of
another municipality, the municipality into which such territory is incorporated, or to which such
territory is annexed, shall assume the proper proportionate share of the contractual obligation of the
municipality from which such territory is taken, based upon a division determined by the board, which
shall make such determination after taking into consideration all factors necessary to make the division
equitable, and in addition shall in the case of partial incorporation or annexation, prior to such
determination, receive a written recommendation as to the proper division from a committee composed
of one representative designed by the governing body of the municipality from which the territory is
taken, one designated by the governing body of the new municipality or the municipality annexing such
territory, and one independent registered engineer appointed by the board. Each municipality shall
appoint its representative within fifteen (15) days after being notified to do so by the board and
within a like time the board shall appoint the engineer third member. If any municipality shall fail
to appoint its representative within the time above provided, then the board may proceed without said
recommendation. If the committee shall not make its recommendation within forty-five (45) days after
its appointment or with any extension thereof by the board, then the board may proceed without such
recommendation. In the consideration of the matters herein provided, including the designation of the
third member of the committee, any member of the board who is also an official of either affected
municipality shall be disqualified to act or vote.
11. In the event that the municipality shall fail for any reason to pay to the board at the
times specified, the amounts herein required to be paid, the board Shall immediately notify, in writing,
both the County Treasurer of the County of Oakland and the governing body of the municipality of such
default and the amount thereof, and if such default is not corrected within ten (10) days after such
notification, the County Treasurer or other official charged with disbursement to the municipality of
funds derived from the state sales tax levy under the provisions of At No. 167 of the Michigan Public
Acts of 1933, as amended, and returnable to the municipality pursuant to the Michigan Constitution of

derived from such sales tax levy and returnable to the municipality as may be in default, and to pay
said sums so withheld to the board to apply on the obligation of the defaulting municipality as herein
set forth. Any such moneys so withheld and paid shall be considered to have been returned to the
municipality within the meaning of the Michigan Constitution of 1963, the purpose of this provision
being solely to voluntarily authorize the use of such funds to meet past due obligations of the
municipality to which said.moneys are owed. In addition to the foregoing, the board Shall have all
other rights and remedies provided by law to enforce the obligation of the municipality to make pay-
ments in the manner and at the times required by this contract. It is specifically recognized by the
municipality that the payments required to be made by it pursuant to the terms of this contract are
to be pledged for the payment of principal of and interest on bonds to be issued by the county, and
the municipality covenants and agrees that it will make its required payments to the board promptly
and at the times herein specified, without regard as to whether the project herein contemplated is

such bonds, shall be deemed to be for the benefit of the holders of said bonds.

By Mr. Ingraham
IN RE: REPORT ON REFERRED LEGISLATIVE ITEMS
To the Oakland County Board of Supervisors
Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen:
Pursuant to a recommendation of the Equalization Committee of this Board of Supervisors,
referred to your Legislative Goramitteo, that the County of Oakland support the following amendment
to the General Property Tax Laws:
"Amendment to Sec. 22 of P,.4 of Act 206, P. A. 1893, as amended, (The General Property
Tax Act) in order to secure legal authorization for auditing the taxpayers books and
records to assure complete discovery and valuation of personal property and to permit
retroactive taxation with appropriate penalties and interest for omitted personal property."
Moved by Ingraham supported by Fouts that Resolution #4688, wherein concerns the foregoing
matter, be taken from the table.
A sufficient majority having voted therefor, the motion carried.
Moved by Ingraham supported by Fouts that inasmuch as the Legislative Committee concurs
in the recommendation of the Equalization Committee, that the County of Oakland support the foregoing
amendment to the General Property Tax laws.
Moved by Clarkson supported by Geralds the motion be amended to delete the word "person"
from the Bill and substitute the word "business".
A sufficient majority having veted therefor, the motion carried.
Vote on motion, as amended:
A sufficient majority having voted therefor, the motion carried.
Your Legislative Committee recommends opposition to the following bills concerning amend-
ments to the Election Laws:
S. B. 5 GENERAL PRIMARY ELECTION - Changes the date of the primary election to the SECOND
Tuesday IN SEPTEMBER preceding every general November election. Not adequate
time, if there are reccunts, to print absent voter ballots.
H. B.2001 GENERAL PRIMARY ELECTION - Wherever reference is made in this Act to a primary
election in August, such reference shall mean a primary election on the seccnd
Tuesday in September. (Same as above).
H. B.2093 GENERAL PRIMARY ELECTION - Changes the date of the primary election to the
THURSDAY FOLLOWING THE FIRST MONDAY IN SEPTEMBER. (Same as above).
S. B.197 PRECINCT DELEGATE BALLOTS - Names of Delegates to be printed on regular primary
ballot. This would make it necessary for printer to change type for each precinct
in county (400) on Absent Voter ballot.
H. B.2176 PRECINCT DELEGATE BALLOTS - Names of Delegates to be printed on regular primary
ballot. (Same as above).
S. B. 90 PROOF COPIES OF BALLOTS - To be sent to township or city clerk where candidate
resides who shall forward same to the candidate for correction and return.
Correction report to local clerk, then to county clerk. Too much waste of time.
At present County Clerk sends ballot to candidate and candidate makes correction
within 48 hours. New law would waste several days.
H. B.2711 -COUNTY BOARD OF CANVASSERS - Would abolish all local Boards of Canvassers. County
Board of Canvassers would canvass votes for all local elections. COUNTY BOARD
could not canvass general primary and general elections plus all twenty-four
township elections.
S. B.473 THE BOARD OF STATE CANVASSERS SHALL BE THE STATE ELECTION COMMISSION AND AS SUCH
SHALL BE THE' CHIEF ELECTION AUTHORITY OF THE STATE. All powers and duties of
the Secretary of State with respect to elections, other than such certifications
required by him to be made, would be transferred to the BOARD OF STATE. CANVASSERS.
It is difficult now to get Canvassing Board to meet since they live miles from
Lansing. It would cause too much delay and they receive $50.00 a day when in
session (four members).
S. B.468 SUSPENSION OF VOTER REGISTRATIONS - At present, registrations are cancelled if
elector fails to vote or reinstate within a period of two years. This bill would
change to a four-year period. New law would leave thousands of names in precinct
registration file of deceased persons or those who have moved. Would necessitate
splitting precincts and buying more voting machines. Each precinct must have no
more than 1400 registered voters with one voting machine for every 600.
Moved by Ingraham supported by Slavens that this Board of Supervisors oppose the foregoing
bills concerning amendments to the Election Laws.
A sufficient majority having voted therefor, the motion carried.
Moved by Ingraham suonord
request from Oogebic County.
STavens that this Board recommend non-currence in the foregoing ))

Misc. 4704-A
By Mr. Levinson
IN RE: TENTATIVE BUDGET FOR THE YEAR 1968
To the Oakland County Board of Supervisors
Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen:
The Property Tax Limitation Statute (Act 62, Section Q, Public Acts of 1933, M.S.A. 7.61)
provides the County shall, at the April Session of the Board of Supervisors, submit a budget to the
County Tax Allocation Board fer its use in determining the County's millage for the ensuing year.
Your Ways and Means Committee, Personnel Policies Committee and the County Board of Auditors, whose
joint responsibility it is to prepare for your consideration snch allocation budget, herewith present
their recommendations for the period January 1, 1968 to December 31, 1968.
In the judgment of your Ways and Means Committee and the Auditors, the budget recommendation
herein presented, including the joint recomendations of the Personnel Policies Committee and Auditors
for the Salaries portion of the Budaet, represent the amounts necessary to finance County operations
for 1968 based on present economic connitions and barring unforeseen changes in State and Federal
participation programs.
Anticipated receipts for 1968 are, after adjustment for change of accounting for the Hospital-
ization Program, within S15ii,000 of 1966 actual collections and, inaolar as can he ascertained, represent
all possible sources available for this purpose.
Your Committee directs your attention to the following items included in their recommendations:
1. The inclusion of 1/10 mill non-tax revenue for the various vital construction needs of the
County of a nature not suited to Authority Financing.
2. The inclusion of $250,000 for land acquisition at the Oakland-Pontiac Airport to be used
in conjunction with Federal and State matching monies for time proposed Instrument Landing System and
an additional $100,000 for upgrading the Airport facilit i es to acceptable maintenance standards.
3. In forecasting costs for Welfare Services, every effort has been made to anticipate the
County share of administration costa under the State-County merger; Hospital and Direct Relief costs
based on present levels of participation under Medicare and Medicaid, and relief available under
present State policies in re: the lifting of ceilings on categorical aid cases. Reversal of present
State policy in these areas could present a real financing difficulty in this respect. Additional
estimated savings over 1967 budget estimates are approximately $476,000.
4. Under non-departmental appropriations, provision has been made for the Parcel Numbering
System (2nd of 3 installments), Transportation and Land Use Study (2nd of 3 installments), Water
Resources Study (last of 3 installments), full operation of the County Traffic Safety Committee and
the 1968 installment of the 10-year Utilities Expansion Program.
Due to the necessity for further study of tho facts presented and time restrictions, the
1180
Supervisors Minutes Continued. April 17, 1,967
not been recommended for inclusion in this Budget by your Committee. Subsequent recommendations on
this subject will be presented later.
Likewise, a request of the Oaklane County Road Commission for an annual allocation of 8/10
mill (approximately 2 million dollars for 1)1es) has not been included. Your Committee, while convinced
of the need for additional substantial funds for road construction, are of the opinion that insufficient
funds are available within the 15 mild property tax limitation and have requested immediate study and
recommendations on the part of the Read Commission for other and more practical means of raising these
needed funds.
Mr. Chairman, on behalf of the Ways and Means Committee, the Personnel. Policies Committee
and the County Board of Auditors, I move that this Honorable Board give consideration to the adoption
of the attached budget in the amount of $21,792,229 for allocation purposes.

IN RE: PERSONNEL POLICIES COMMITTEE REPORT - SALARIES
Your Board of Auditors and the Personnel Policies Committee recommend that the following
amounts be placed in the Tentative Budget to cover the cost of salaries:
$8,181,841 For 1154 Positions which have been previously approved
680,373 For 109 New Positions
45,600 For Emergency Salaries
500,000 For possible salary adjustments
150 000 For overtime reserve
$9,557,814 Total Salaries Budget
This total Salaries Budget is an increase of $1,027,431 over the total 1967 Salaries Budget.
An increase of 10.8%. The 109 recommended [IOW positions were reduced from the 132 requested by the
County's departments. The majority of these are repeat requests from the past several years. In
1967, 38 positions were granted out of 145 requests; in 1966, 15 out of 125; in 1965, 60 out of 105;
in 1904, 6 out of 52; in 1963, 4 out of 61. The $500,000 included for possible salary adjustments
is 5.2% of the total Salaries Budget and is not earmarked at this time for any particular job class-
ifications, departments or employees. Detailed recommendations in this area are developed in the
Final Budget after completion of the County's annual salary survey which is conducted in July and
August. In the 1967 Budget, $600,000 was placed in the Tentative Budget for salary adjustments and
$649,220 was spent in the Final Budget.
The Emergency Salaries amount of $45,600 compares with $45,900 spent in 1966; $43,216 in
1965 and $43,244 in 1964. The Overtime Reserve amount is an overall estimate and is not earmarked
for particular departments at this time. A detailed survey of overtime usage is under way and will
have been completed before the final budget Is prepared.
The following page is a summary sheet showing the distribution of the total, salaries amount
to the various departmental budgets. The positions budgeted for each department, their classifications,
present salary ranges and descriptions of the requested and recommended new positions are shown on the
colored pages of the budget document.
Mr. Chairman, I move the acceptance of this recommendation from the Personnel Policies
Committee and the Board of Auditors, for consideration as part of the Tentative 1968 Budget recommend-
ation as submitted by the Ways and Means Committee.

property in the several Townships and Cities so assessed, such an amount as in its judgment will produce
relatively an equal and uniform valuation of the taxable property in the County, according to the
attached two page report, and herewith submit the same with the recommendation that it be adopted by
this Board as the County Equalization for the year 1967.

IN RE: REPORT ON REFERRAL LEGISLATIVE ITEMS
To the Oakland County Board of Supervisors
Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen:
Your Legislative Committee, at its meeting on April 21, 1967, at which time were present
the Board of County Road Commissioners and members of the Roads Committee, discussed at length the
matter of the "Good Roads Federation Revenue Package", a presentation of which was made to this Board
on April 17, 1967.
After due consideration, your Committee recommends: That the Oakland County Board of Super-
visors endorse the "Good Roads Federation Revenue Package" legislation, with direction to the County
Legislative Agent to work toward the elimination of inequities in the best interests of the County and
the municipalities therein.
Moved by Miller supported by Edward the recommendation of the Committee be approved.
A sufficient majority having voted therefor, the motion carried.
Your Committee also recommends support of the following referred legislative items:
1. Federal Bill H. B. 3969. A bill to amend Title V of the Social Security Act to provide
a grant-in-aid program to assist the States in furnishing aid and services with respect to children
under foster care.
The bill would supplement the State and local efforts by providing that each state may
receive a federal grant on a 50 percent matching basis, for each child living under foster care, in
a foster family home or child care institution up to $45 a month.
Supervisors Minutes Continued. April 25, 1967 1192
In essence, this proposal will, in thousands of cases, make the difference in providing
proper and wholesome foster family homes, where such are not now availably, due to the financial
inability of many couples qualified and desiring to care for a foster child. Because of low foster
payments they are now unable to do so.
2. Senate Bill #91. This legislation, if adopted, will have two basic results: First, it
will correct many of the problems created by Act 315 of the Public Acts of 1966. This act revised the
fee schedule of the Probate Court as to decedents estates and in so doing left many "gray" areas which
if not corrected will result in appeals to the Supreme Court. The revisions suggested in Senate Bill
No. 91 in this area were worked out by Probate Court staffs in the Tr-County area. The second effect
of this bill would be the return of all fees collected for certified copies to the county collecting
the fee. Public Act 315 allocated one-half of these fees to the State General Fund. Act 315 also
established a gross estate fee based on the size of the decedents estate and one-half of this fee
also goes to the State. These funds, it is assumed, were in return for payment by the State of a
portion of Probate Judges salaries. In the case of Oakland County this payment over a full year
will be $10,000.00 per judge or $30,000.00 total.
3. Senate Bill #791. This bill is also in concurrence of a referred resolution from Ingham
County which resolves:
1. That the Legislature is hereby strongly urged to promptly and without delay pass the
required legislation to appropriate the required moneys to pay the State of Michigan's share of Probate
Judges salaries and to reimburse local units for taxes lost by granting of Senior Citizens exemptions;
2. That the Legislature take action to adopt any and all legislation for appropriations
involving payments to ecuntiys and local units of government in the State of Michigan.
Mr. Chairman, on behalf of the Legislative Committee, I move that the Oakland County Board
of Supervisors support the foregoing referred legislative items and that a certified copy of this
resolution be forwarded to the Oakland County Legislators and the County Legislative Agent.

IN RE: MEMORIAL FOR VIRGIL C. KNOWLES
To the Oakland County Board of Supervisors
Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen:
Virgil C. Knowles, a member of this Board of Supervisors for the past ten years, passed
away on April 15, 1967 at the age of 56 years. He resided at 25991 Stratford Place, City of Oak Park.
Born in Wellington, Kansas, and a graduate of the University of Kansas, Virgil Knowles was
City Manager of Parsons, Kansas, before coming to Oak Park. He set up the first city manager government
in Parsons and in Holton, Kansas, and Sidney, Nebraska, as well.
Virgil Knowles served as the Manager of the City of oak Park from 1957 to the present and was
among the most respected City Managers in the County.
During his tenure on this Board from 1957 to the present, he served on the By-Laws, Boundaries,
Miscellaneous and Salaries Committees.
In addition to serving as Oak Park's City Manager, Mr. Knowles also was a past vice president
of the International City Managers Association, a nine-year member of the Oakland County incinerator
Authority and past vice president of the Oak Park Rotary Club.
A veteran of World War II, he was a Captain in the U. S. Air Corps Special Services.
Surviving are his wife Norma; two sons, Virgil, Jr., 18, and Steven, 14; his mother, Mrs.
Verda Shipman; a sister, Mrs. Vernon Wells; and his grandmother, Mrs. Hattie Owens. His grandmother,
mother and sister all live in Wichita, Kansas.
Supervisors Minutes Continued. April 25, 1967 1194
Virgil had earned state and nation-wide recognition for his knowledge and skill in the handling
of urban affairs and in his own quiet way got things done.
His civic dedication and untiring efforts in the interests of the citizens of his community
won him a multitude of admirers and friends who will miss him keenly.
Mr. Chairman, on behalf of the Special Committee, I move that the foregoing memorial resolution
be spread upon the minutes of this Board meeting and that a certified copy be forwarded to his surviving
wife, Norma.

IN RE: FINAL REPORT-SPECIAL COMMITTEE TO STUDY LAW ENFORCEMEAT PROBLEMS
To the Oakland County Board of Supervisors
Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen:
After an existence of approximately 19 months, your Special Committee to Study Law Enforce-
ment Problems proudly submits its final report and asks, simultaneously, that it be abolished.
The Special Committee to Study Law Enforcement Problems was created by the Board of Super-
visors on September lb, 1965, following a letter to Mr. Delos Hamlin as Chairman of the Board of
Supervisors dated August 31, 1965. The letter was written by Circuit Judge Arthur E. Moore, long known
for his concern for the problems of persons of All ages in Oakland County.
Judge Moore spelled out the need for more effective law enforcement - more knowledge for
those whose task it is to administrate law enforcement. He requested a special committee to study
law enforcement problems.
The Board responded immediately and Mr. Hamlin appointed a committee of seven, three members
of this Board, John B. Osgood, John S. Slavens and Robert A. Frye, and four law enforcement officials,
Police Chiefs Ralph Moxley of Birmingham, and William Hanger of Pontiac, and County officials, Sheriff
Frank W. irons and Prosecutor S. Jerome Bronson.
The Chairman, John B. Osgood, took the reins and energetically pursued an answer to the
problem: What can the County do about law enforcement?
Chairman Osgood called several meetings and invited authorities on the subject of law enforce-
ment to give their views and recommendations pertaining to Oakland County's most pressing needs in the
law enforcement area. The conclusion of the authorities was identical - that the County's greatest
need was a local facility for training law enforcement officers and administrators, both at a basic
or recruit level and at an advanced and continuing level.
Following this series of meetings (and not because of these meetings), Chairman Osgood
resigned from the Board to accept appointment to the Board of Auditors. However, the groundwork for
action had been established by this time, and the Committee looked forward hopefully.
On December 1, 1965, a meeting, beginning at 7:30 A. M., was held in the Supervisors
Auditorium to which invitations were extended to all Supervisors, Mayors, City Commissioners, Police
Chiefs and City Managers. Approximately 85 persons attended this meeting. Your Committee members
presented a review of the current problems in law enforcement and recommended that a continuing training
program be initiated in Oakland County, the cost of which would be provided by the County but offset
by a tuition charge. The enthusiasm displayed at this meeting encouraged the Committee to submit
questionnaires to each governmental subdivision of the County requesting a reply to its interest in
using such a facility if it were available. Every one of the townships and cities which responded
said that it would use such a facility if one were established.
On January 4, 1966, your Committee met and upon the advice of Robert P. Allen, Corporation
Counsel, decided that legislation was necessary to create a Commission with the authority necessary
to carry out the recommended training program. This recommendation was submitted to the Legislative
Committee which unanimously recommended such legislation.
On February 8, 1966, the Committee reported to the Ways and Means Committee in a status
report that "Legislation will be introduced in the State Legislature immediately which will be promoted
by all of Oakland County's Senators and Representatives." Through Mr. Allen's efforts, enabling
legislation was introduced which, to the Committee's knowledge, was promoted by our elected Legislators.
Through no fault of Mr. Allen's, but to the dismay of the Committee, the legislation died in committee,
apparently a victim of its own simplicity.
In the Spring of 1966, the Committee retrenched and largely through the liaison and encourage-
ment of Robert Frye (who remained an extremely active Committee member, although no longer a member
of the Board of Supervisors) approached Oakland Community College to discuss the possibility of a
police training academy at the college.
The results were miraculous.
A sub-committee operating under the direction of Police Chiefs Mexley and Hanger enlisted
the support of law enforcement officials throughout the County. Your Committee met on numerous
occasions jointly with the sub-committee to offer and receive exchanges of information. In conjunction
with Walter Fightmaster and Eugene M. Freeman of Oakland Community College, an accredited basic course
in basic police training was conceived and produced in six months.
lt is irresistible to provide a little detail in the fantastic progress between conception
and birth. Your Special Committee met in late August with officials of 0.C.C., as recorded so ably in
minutes taken by acting Committee Secretary Frye. Acceptance of the task of providing a law enforcement
academy was undertaken by O.C.C. almost immediately. "Classroom space?" "No problem, it's ordered.
1195
Supervisors Minutes Continued. April. 25, 1967
"A pre-fab facility (or., if you will, an instant classroom) was ordered on 0.C.C.'s Auburn
Heights campus-construction on February 15th." Admittedly it was a couple of days late but ready for
business on March 6, 1967, when the first class reported.
"Curriculum?" "Problems? Yes!" But by February 1967 instructors from the Michigan State
Police, Secretary of State, Liquor Control Commission, F.B.I., Local Police Departments (notably in
firearms), Local Police Administrators (longtime teachers in police academies) were enlisted to assume
the responsibility of teaching this new course at O.C.C.
The first class of the Oakland Police Academy of Oakland Community College began as scheduled
on March 0, 1967, and graduated on April 14, 1967, after a gruelling 240 hour course of instruction-
40 classroom hours for six straight weeks. Many of the political subdivisions of the County which we
represent sponsored graduates of this class-45 graduates in all.
This academy is the first in the State to receive approval under Act 203 of the Public Acts
of 1965, as amended, for accreditation for reimbursement purposes to the sponsoring political subdivision.
What has this Committee accomplished?
1. 1t sought and defined a basic problem in the County - that a local law enforcement academy
was necessary.
2. It has participated in the establishment of this objective by cooperation, with no expend-
iture of County funds.
3. It has become aware of possible programs which may be advantageous to the County-in
obtaining public or private assistance for studies or grants in the field of law enforcement.
4. It has recognized a need for a full time Law Enforcement Committee so that Oakland County
may keep current in this seemingly ever increasing problem.
Your Committee has attached to the original of this report the Commencement Program of the
first graduating class of the Oakland Police Academy. The names of those men whom we wish to recognize
are listed below. These men, in addition to the members of this Committee, have served as members of
the Law Enforcement Advisory Committee. To them we give our most sincere thanks.

Your Special Committee suggests humbly that it be abolished, but with dignity.

lateral sewers, trunks and treatment facilities located approximately as set forth and generally
shown on Exhibit A hereto attached. The said plans and specifications and estimate of cost shall be
submitted to the county board of supervisors, together with an ordinance or resolution approved by
the Oakland County Board of Public Works, providing for the issuance of bonds by the county as
hereinafter provided, in an aggregate principal sum not exceeding the amount of the capital cost as
hereinafter defined. If such bond ordinance or resolution shall be adopted by said board of super-
visors, then the DPW shall proceed to secure bids for the construction of the project, to secure bids
for the purchase of the bonds, to award the construction consracts and to issue the bonds, and shall
cause the project to be constructed within a reasonable time thereafter.
2. The said Walled Lake Arm (herein sometimes referred to as the "project") is designed for,
and shall be used for, the collection and transportation of sanitary sewage only. Said project may
be divided into sections by the DPW for purposes of construction and the letting of construction con-
tracts.
3. Said Arm being an extension of the Huron-Rouge Sewage Disposal System heretofore estab-
lished and being a part of the ultimate county system to serve the Huron-Rouge Sewage Disposal District
the provisions of paragraphs 5 thru 7 (except for the population, capacity and percentage allocations
therein) and of paragraph 9, as amended by paragraph 5 hereof and of paragraphs 15 thru 23 of the
Base Agreement shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding this agreement. The said Arm
is designed so that by proper extensions said Arm will serve all of the City of Walled Lake and the
northerly parts of the Village of Novi located in the Huron-Rouge Sewage Disposal District but none of
the areas in the Township of Novi, now included in said District will be served by this Arm. Properties
within said city or said village to be served by said Arm shall be connected to the said Arm only upon
such terms and conditions as are prescribed by the city or by said village, as may be appropriate, in
addition to the terms and conditions prescribed in the Base Agreement. No areas not in said city or
village shall be served by or connected to said Arm except by agreement of the parties hereto in
writing. The county or the city or village shall not permit the discharge into said Arm of any sewage
in violation of the Baee Agreement.
4. The municipalities together shall pay to the county the entire or any part of the cost of
the facilities of the Arm financed by the issuance by the county of its bonds as herein provided. The
term "cost" as used herein shall be construed to include all items of cost of the type set forth in
Exhibit B attached hereto and any other items of cost of a similar nature as may be set forth in any
revision of Exhibit B agreed to by the parties hereto. A schedule marked Exhibit C is attached
hereto on which are set forth in the allocations by percentage of the cost to each municipality and
the semi-annual payments to be made by each of the municipalities on the assumption that the county
will issue its bonds in the full amount of the estimated cost at a 5% per annum interest rate.
Immediately upon the actual issuance of any bends by the county to finance the cost of the project,
the Board shall notify the municipalities, by written communication addressed to the treasurer of
each, of the revised schedule of payments of the principal of and interest and bond handling charges
(exclusive of capitalized interest) thereon, and the amount of each semi-annual payment to be made
by each of said municipalities. Said municipalities heviby each covenant and agree, not less than
thirty (30) days prior to the due date of any principal of or interest and bond handling charges
(exclusive of capitalized interest) on any such bonds, to remit to the Board sufficient funds to
meet said payments in full. The obligation herein expressed shall be applicable to all bonds issued
by the county to construct and complete the project, as herein defined, whether issued at one time or
at more than one time. It is assumed that the principal of the bonds represents the cost of the
project. If funds are available from either or both of the municipalities or any other source to pay
the project cost, or any portion thereof, prior to the issuance of bonds, then the obligation of
each shall be adjusted and limited accordingly. If either of the municipalities shall fail to make
any of its payments when due, the amount thereof shall be subject to a penalty of one-half of one
per cent (1/2 of 1%) for each month or fraction thereof that the same remains unpaid after the due
date. Either of the municipalities may pay in advance of maturity all or any part of an annual
installment due the county, (1) by surrendering to the county bonds issued in anticipation of payments
Supervisors Minutes Continued. May 25, 1.967 1209
to be made under this contract, of a like principal amount maturing in the same calendar year with all
future due interest coupons attached thereto, or (2) by payment in cash of a principal amount of bonds
to be called plus all interest to the first date on which such amount of bonds can be called and the
amount of premium required to call such amount of bonds on such date.
5. In the event that either of the municipalities shall fail for any reason to pay to the
Board at the times specified, the amounts herein required to be paid, the Board shall immediately
notify, in writing, both the County Treasurer of the County of Oakland and the governing body of such
one of the municipalities of such default and the amount thereof, and if such default is not corrected
within ten (10) days after such notification, the County Treasurer or other county official charged
with disbursement to such one of the municipalities of funds derived from the state sales tax levy
under the provisions of Act 167, Public Acts of Michigan, 1933, as amended, and returnable to such one
of the municipalities pursuant to the Michigan Constitution, is by these presents specifically authorized
by such one of the municipalities to withhold sufficient funds derived from such sales tax levy and
returnable to such one of the municipalities as may be needed to correct such default, and to pay said
sums so withheld to the Board to apply on the obligation of the defaulting one of the municipalities
as herein set forth. Any such moneys so withheld and paid shall be considered to have been returned to
such one of the municipalities within the meaning of the Michigan Constitution, the purpose of this
provision being solely to voluntarily authorize the use of such funds to meet past due obligations of
such one of the municipalities to which said moneys are owed. In addition to the foregoing, the Board
shall have all other rights and remedies provided by law to enforce the obligations of each of the
municipalities to make payments in the manner and at the times required by this contract. It is
specifically recognized by each of the municipalities that the payments required to be made by it
pursuant to the terms of this contract are to be pledged for the payment of the principal of and
interest on bonds to be issued by the county, and the municipalities covenant and agree that it will
make its required payments to the Board promptly and at the times herein specified, without regard as
to whether the project herein contemplated is actually completed or placed in operation; provided,
only that nothing herein contained shall limit the obligation of the county to perform in accordance
with the promises and covenants contained herein.
6. After completion of the project and payment of all costs thereof, any surplus remaining
from the sale of the bonds therefor shall be used to call such bonds as are callable or to purchase
bonds on the open market and in such event the contract obligation of the municipalities in respect
to the project shall be reduced by the principal amount of bonds so called or purchased, said
reduction to be applied as to year, in accordance with the year of the maturity of the bonds so called
or purchased. Any bonds so called or purchased shall be cancelled. As an alternative, said surplus
may be used, upon approving resolution by the governing body of each of the parties hereto, to improve,
extend and enlarge the Arm.
7. If the proceeds of the sale of the original bonds to be issued by the county for the
project are for any reason insufficient to complete the project in accordance with the plans and
specifications therefor, the Board shall, if necessary, submit to the Board of Supervisors of Oakland
County a resolution providing for the issuance of additional bonds in an amount necessary to provide
funds to complete the project in which event the duties and obligations of the Board and the munici-
palities as expressed and set forth in this contract shall be applicable to such additional issue of
bonds as well as the original issue, it being at all times fully recognized and agreed that the pay-
ments to be made by the municipalities, in the manner specified in paragraph 4 of this contract, shall
be based upon the aggregate amount of the ccunty bonds outstanding. In lieu of the issuance of such
additional bonds, any other method may be agreed upon by the county and the municipalities to provide
the necessary funds to complete the project.
8. The municipalities, pursuant to the authorization of paragraph (2), Section 12 of Act 185
Public Acts of Michigan 1957, as amended, do each hereby pledge its full faith and credit for the
prompt and timely payment of its obligations expressed in this ccntract and shall each year, commencing
with the year 1969 levy a tax in an amount which, taking into consideration estimated delinquencies in
tax collections, will be sufficient to pay its obligations under this contract becoming due before the
time of the following year's tax collections: PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if at the time of making such
annual tax levy there shall be other funds on hand earmarked and set aside for the payment of such
contractual obligations falling due prior to the next tax collection period, then the annual tax levy
may be reduced by such amount. Such other funds may be raised in the manner provided in said paragraph
(2), Section 12 of Act 185, Public Acts of Nichigan, 1957, or any amendments thereto. Each of the
municipalities agrees that it will, at or prior to the time of making each annual levy and in lieu of
all or part of such levy, set aside from other funds all or part of the amount of its contractual
obligations specified in paragraph 4 falling due before the next year's tax collection and that it
will from time to time raise such other funds therefor by the levy and collection of special assessments
on properties in the district specially benefited and/or by the imposition and collection of connection
and sewage disposal service charges. Each of the municipalities, in furtherance of its agreement set
forth above, hereby covenants and agrees that it will take all necessary proceedings, including con-
firmation of the special assessment roll, for the assessment of part of the cost of said project to
the lots and parcels of land in any district created by either of the municipalities as a special
assessment district which special assessments will be made payable in not more than thirty (30) annual
installments, with interest on unpaid installments, as hereinbefore mentioned and/or that it will take
all necessary proceedings to establish, maintain and collect connection charges and/or sewage disposal
service charges for payment of the balance of the cost of said project against all lots and parcels of
land in the district connected, directly or indirectly, to the system which charges will be imposed
and collected for a period of not less than thirty (30) years or until the obligations of such one of
the municipalities under this contract are terminated; that all collections therefrom are hereby
pledged for the fulfillment of the municipalities contractual obligations to the county as in paragraph
1210
Supervisors Minutes Continued. May 25, 1967
4 assumed; that such collections of assessments and/or connection and service charges except amounts
required for approved sewage operating expenditures of the municipalities will be set aside and
deposited in a separate bank or sewage department investments account and will be used for no other
purpose so long as said contractual obligations remain unsatisfied; And that the combined collections
from the said ad valorem taxes, special assessments and/or connection and service charges shall be
adequate to meet in full the contractual obligations of each of the municipalities hereunder.
9. This contract is contingent upon the county issuing its negotiable bonds as set forth in
the provisions of paragraph 4 of this contract, to defray the estimated cost of the project, which
bonds shall be issued under the authorization provided in paragraph (1), subparagraph (b), Section 11
of said Act 185, Public Acts of Michigan 1957, as Amended, and other applicable general laws of this
state. Such bonds shall be secured primarily by the full faith and credit pledges of the municipalities
under this Agreement, and secondarily by the full faith and credit of Oakland County, if authorized by
a three fifths (3/5ths) vote of the members elect of the Board of Supervisors, as provided for in
paragraph (2) of said Section 11.
10. The county, subject to the terms of this Agreement and the Base Agreement, shall operate
and maintain said Arm. The maximum units which the county shall be required to serve within each
municipality shall be as follows:
City of Walled Lake 1466
Village of Novi 800
After the maximum units to be served in either municipality has been reached the county shall permit
no new lateral sewers or buildings in such municipality to be connected to the sanitary sewers of
the Arm, or to any sewer connected directly or indirectly to the sanitary sewers of such Arm except
and until the Arm has been extended or enlarged as provided by law. The term "unit" or "units" shall
be related to the quantity of sanitary sewage ordinarily arising from the occupancy of a residence
building by a single family of ordinary size, and shall be defined or determined from time to time
by the County through its Department of Public Works. Said determination of units shall be based
upon the studies made in the City of Cincinnati, Ohio and in the Counties of Wayne and Oakland in
the State of Michigan and by the U. S. Department of Health, relative to the quantity of sewage
generated by different types of use and occupancy of premises and shall be kept up to date and
revised as needed as new studies are made and through experience gained by the County of Oakland
in actual operation.
11. The provisions of this Agreement shall not be modified or terminated so as to impair the
security of any bonds issued by the county upon the full faith and credit pledges of the municipalities.
It is hereby declared that the terms of this Agreement insofar as they pertain to the security of any
such bonds, shall be deemed to be for the benefit of the holders of said bonds.
12. The City of Walled Lake and the Village of Novi each consent to the use by the county of
the public streets, alleys, lands and rights-of-way in the city or village for the purpose of
constructing, operating and maintaining the Arm and of any improvements, enlargements and extensions
thereto. The city and village reaffirm their covenant and warrant that all sanitary sewage originating
in their respective units shall be delivered only to the Huron-Rouge Sewage Disposal System, including
extensions thereto, for transportation therein and ultimate disposal. Lands (other than highways)
owned by or under the jurisdiction of the city or the village or the county, located within the
Huron-Rouge Sewage Disposal District, shall be liable, if sanitary sewage emanates therefrom, to the
same extent as privately owned lands, to pay the charges for sewage disposal services with respect
thereto.
13. This Agreement shall become effective upon being approved by the legislative bodies of
the municipalities and by the board of public works and board of supervisors of Oakland County and
properly executed by the officers of the municipalities and of the board of public works. This
contract shall terminate when the Base Agreement terminates.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be executed and delivered
by their respective duly authorized officers, all as of the day and year first above written.

IN RE: ANNUAL REPORT OF BUILDINGS AND GROUNDS COMMITTEE
To the Oakland County Board of Supervisors
Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen:
In accordance with Section 4 of Rule XII of the By-Laws, your Buildings and Grounds Committee
has made its annual inspection of County-owned buildings and grounds.
Your Committee is pleased to report it found the buildings and grounds satisfactorily main-
tained, cleaned and repaired; and, in view of the age of some of the older facilities, the conditions
speak well of the program carried out by the Board of Auditors.
All apparent minor deficiencies that may exist today are planned for correction through funds
in the 1967 budget and the t908 tentative budget.
in February this year the Board of Auditors consolidated all building and ground functions
into the new Department of Facilities and Operations to effect better coordination and efficiency in
the management of our growing physical plant.
Some of the major items accomplished as part of our maintenance program this year include the
reconstruction of the freezer at the Central Stores, and the beginning of construction for the new
walk-in cooler and freezer at the Sanatorium. Screens and eavestroughs have been installed at Children's
Village, and a new roof installed on the service building at 550 S. Telegraph Road. Considerable
exterior building repairs are .being made at the Sanatorium to preserve its condition. In addition, the
main boilers at the Service Center have been converted to natural gas for 9 months of the year for an
expected savings of $28,000 annually.
Some of our older buildings lack space and facilities to carry out the modern programs of
our County and will require replacement or modernization during future years.
Construction was started on two major additions to our facilities during the past year.
The new South Oakland Health Center in Southfield will be completed in July this year and, functionally,
is one of the best planned buildings of its type. Construction was started on the new East Wing at the
Court House and completion is scheduled in April 1968. These two buildings add 16% more space to the
County offices.
This past year the Board leased 20 acres to the Oakland County Schools for the construction
of a new administration building at the Service Center. The existing school offices will be used by
the County when they become available in January, 1969. In addition, 110 acres of land adjacent to
West boundary of the Service Center is under option by the County to provide expansion area for the
long range future growth of County services.
Many programs are under study at this time by your Committee and the Board of Auditors. A
complete master plan is in the early stages of development for County properties to provide a guide
for an orderly growth- A written program is being completed for the new County Jail and soon architects
will be retained to prepare drawings. Another program in the early stages of study is the construction
of a new Central Service Building to replace the inadequate facilities used by the Drain Commission,
Department of Public Works, and Department of Facilities and Operations. Recently referred to your
Comnittee is a request for a new Juvenile Village School.
In addition to these major projects, parking lots are being planned for the Sanatorium and
in front of the Court House; plans are being prepared for remodeling necessary to carry out the programs
of the recently merged Social Services Department; and construction will start this year to improve
the electrical distribution system at the Service Center. A study is also being made of the water
supply at the Service Center to insure adequate supply for our growth.
Your Committee reports a busy year and the expectation of an even busier year ahead.
Mr. Chairman, on behalf of the Buildings and Grounds Committee, T move that the foregoing
report be received and placed on file.

IN RE: COUNTY ROAD FUNDS
To the Oakland County Board of Supervisors
Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen:
offer the following resolution which was approved by your Roads Comnittee at its meeting
on September 15, 1967.
WHEREAS the Road Commission's determination of August 11, 1967, whereby the said Road Commission
requested that a tax in the amount of 0,8 of one mill should be raised in Oakland County for the year
1968, was not approved by this Board because a majority of the members are of the opinion that it would
be a practical impossibility to include such a tax in the proposed 1968 Budget without curtailing other
essential services and expenditures, and
WHEREAS, while it is not possible to include anticipated income to be received as the County's
share of State Collected Income Tax monies in the 1968 Budget, it can reasonably be anticipated that
substantial sums of general fund monies will be received by the County during the 1968 fiscal year from
that source;
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that this Board of Supervisors recommends the allocation of a
portion of the County's anticipated share of the State Collected Income Tax monies to the Road Commission
for County road construction purposes, and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that this resolution is hereby referred to the Ways and Means Committee
for study to determine what portion of the County's share of the Income Tax monies shall be allocated
to the County Road Commission, and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Ways and Means Committee's recommendations on this referral
be made to this Board prior to the commitment of any Income Tax monies and, in any event prior to the
January Session.
Mr. Chairman, on behalf of your Roads Committee, I move the adoption of the foregoing resolution

IN RE: BUDGET FOR FISCAL YEAR BEGINNING JANUARY 1, 1968 TO DECEMBER 31, 1968
To the Oakland County Board of Supervisors
Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen:
Your Ways and Means Committee herewith presents to the Oakland County Board of Supervisors
the recommended budget for the operation of the County for the fiscal year beginning January 1, 1968
and ending December 31, 1968, in the amount of $21,134,162.00. Included in this amount is the sum of
$9,937,624,00 to cover the recommendations as to Salaries and Fringe Benefits of the Personnel Policies
Committee and the Board of Auditors for 1968.
A combination of several factors-this year have allowed the Committee, together with the
Personnel Policies Committee and the Board of Auditors, to place before the Board for the first time
1249
Supervisors Minutes Continued. October 2, 1967
building construction. These are:
1. An above average increase of in State Equalized Value.
2. The new State Income Tax with an estimated return to the County for 1968 of 1.2 million
dollars.
3. An estimated revenue of $100,000 from the new State Land Transfer Tax.
4. Savings on overall County operations resulting from the operations of Title 18 and 19 of
the Federal Social Security Act in the areas of General Relief and Hospitalization, together with
savings as a result of the merger of the Social Welfare activities with the State of Michigan.
5. Savings through the conversion of an additional floor of the Oakland County Sanatorium
to sub-acute care brought about through a Lessening of the Tuberculosis case load.
In line with the practice established in 1967 a separate resolution is being presented to
this Board to meet the County obligation in re; the East Wing and for the payment of certain Drain
commitments authorized for spread above the 15 mill limitation.
Your Committee has carefully considered the best use of the expected County return from the
State Income Tax and in that connection recomniend that the proceeds from this tax for the year 1968,
or the equivalent of such return in non-tax revenues, be placed in the County Building Fund toward
the construction of the new critically needed County Jail. Plans for this facility are now being
prepared for 1968 implementation. It is further recommended that the Board of Auditors submit
recommendations for the planned financing of a long range capital program in time for inclusion in the
1969 Budget. Preliminary estimates would appear to indicate building needs of approximately $30,000,000
which should be net by 1973.
In establishing the Contingent Fund for 1968, your Committee has taken into consideration not
only the necessity of meeting unpredictable expenditures which experience shows, do arise, but likewise
a proposal under study by the Oakland Ccunty Retirement Commission to bring the County Retirement Plan
into line with other Michigan Retirement Systems. This proposal, the costs of which it appears will
be upward of $100,000, will be submitted to the Ro?rd of Supervisors prior to January 1, 1968.
The matter of the request of the Road Commission and Office of Economic Opportunity for County
financing referred to this Committee, has been treated by separate resolutions to the Board.
To the best of our ability, based on our studies, the recommendation of the Board of Auditors,
the Personnel Policies Committee, and interviews with County Department Heads, your Committee believes
the recommendations herein present a properly balanced Budget and one which provides for the best
operation of the County within the limits of funds available.
Mr. Chairman, I move the adoption of the above report and approval of the 1968 Budget as
submitted, including in full, provision for the recommendations as to Salaries and Fringe Benefits of
the Personnel Policies Committee and the Board of Auditors.

SALARIES PORTION OF 1968 BUDGET
To the Honorable Board of Supervisors
Your Board of Auditors and the Personnel Policies Committee recommend that the following
amounts be placed in the 1968 Budget to cover the cost of salaries:
$8,959,226 For 1161 positions which have been previously approved
726,298 For 10b new positions
52,100 For emergency salaries
200,000 For overtime reserve
$9,937,624 Total Salaries Budget
On the following pages are a Summary Sheet showing the distribution of the total salaries
amount to the various departmental budgets and explanations of the major changes in items covered by
the Salaries Portion of the Budget.
The positions budgeted for each department, their classifications, present and recommended
salary ranges and descriptions of the requested and recommended new positions are shown on the colored
pages of the budget document.
With the exception of the salary rates recommended for elected and appointed officials, which
are solely the responsibility of the Personnel Policies Committee, this report is the joint recommendation
of that Committee and the Board of Auditors. It was arrived at after lengthy hearings with the County's
Department Heads and Officials.
The total salaries budget represents a 16.5% increase over the 1967 Budget. The major reasons
for this increase are the 106 new positions, some of which have been requested for four years or more
and the salaries increases which are based on the County's Annual Salary Survey. These salary adjust-
ments average $600 and account for $779,539 of the total salaries budget. This is an 8.9% increase in
the cost of old and new positions.
Mr. Chairman, I move the acceptance of this report as the official recommendation from the
Personnel Policies Committee and the Board of Auditors, for consideration as part of the total 1968
Budget as submitted by the Ways and Means Committee.

Supervisors Minutes Continued. October 2, 1967
ND' POSITIONS
In recent budgets, the major emphasis has been on keeping salaries and fringe benefits on a
competitive level so that the County could keep its present positions filled. The granting of new
positions was given secondary importance even though it was recognized that most departmental requests
were legitimate attempts to service a growing population and to staff new levels and areas of service
which the County now provides.
Most of the 106 new positions are repeat requests. Some have been requested for the past
four years. The two largest allocations of positions are in the Health Department and the Sheriff's
Department.
The 33 positions recommended for the Health Department, out of the 42 requested are to cover
long standing needs created by a growing population and to properly service some public health activities
which have been passed on to the County level from the State and from local communities. Many of these
essential services are barely provided for with the present staffing.
The 20 positions recommended for the Sheriff are to provide a more adequate coverage in
several areas. Because of the heavy load in such fringe activities as transporting prisoners to prison,
guarding prisoners in Court, testifying in Court and giving road tests to drivers license applicants,
there are occasions when only one Sheriff's patrol car is on the road in the entire County. Six of
the new positions are for additional jail guards. Presently there are occasions on two shifts where
one guard must cover three floors of an often dangerously overcrowded jail.
POSITIONS RECOMMENDED FOR IMEDIATE EFFECT
In their budget hearings some departments stressed the need for granting some new positions as soon as
possible. The Personnel Policies Committee and the Board of Auditors recommend that the following
positions be granted effective with the passing of the 1968 Budget.
For the Auditors-Personnel Division: One Typist I, one Stenographer I and one Personnel
Technician II. These positions are necessary to adequately carry out the provisions of the Merit
System which was approved last November. The total cost of these positions for the remainder of the
year is $3,700.
For the Clerk-Register of Deeds: One Clerk I to act as deliveryman and coordinator of office
supplies and mail for both divisions of the office. The cost for 1967 would be $975.
For the Prosecuting Attorney: One Assistant Prosecutor I. Under recent court decisions and
legal interpretations applying to the legal rights of minors, it is imperative that the County be
represented by an Assistant Prosecutor in all Juvenile Court cases in which the minor is represented
by counsel. The remaining 1967 cost would be $1.875.
All of these positions are included among the 106 new positions recommended for 1968.
SALARY ADJUSTMENTS
The salary adjustments included in this recommendation range from $200 per year up to one
elected official at $4,000. The total cost of these raises to the 1267 old and new budgeted positions
is $779,539 for an average raise of $600. This is 8.9% of the cost of the old and new positions.
The raises were based on the County's turnover and recruiting experience during the first
eight months of the year; the wage patterns established and being established, both locally and nation-
ally; and the results of the County's annual salary survey which this year covered the State of Michigan,
seven Michigan Counties, ten comparable other counties elsewhere in the country, thirteen cities, seven
hospitals, nine school districts and four firms in private industry.
Also considered was the effect the new State Income Tax, the proposed increase in Federal
Income Tax, the possible Pontiac City Income Tax and a possible increase in Social Security deductions
will have on the "take-home pay" of County employees.
The new salary schedule should make the County very competitive in its recruiting and retention
of employees, at least temporarily, but the County is operating in a very competitive market.
EMERGENCY SALARIES
The reasons for granting "emergency salaries" are usually to allow a department to cope with
a fluctuating case load, to cover vacation and sick leave absences or to cover special repetitive
seasonal projects.
The largest amount of the $52,100 total is the $20,000 earmarked for Children's Village.
This amount allows the Village to have a number of "on-call" employees to guarantee adequate coverage
when the scheduled employee is unable to work because of illness or other emergencies. This has proved
much less expensive and less permanently binding than having full-time staffing to cover all possibilities.
OVERTIME RESERVE
In the past, the County has budgeted funds for the payment of overtime only in the Sheriff's
department. Overtime in other County Departments has been paid from funds made available when budgeted
positions became vacant during the budget year, or were filled at a lower rate than they were originally
budgeted.
From experience, since the County began paying overtime at the time and one-half rate, at
the beginning of the current budget year, it appears that funds should be specifically earmarked for
the payment of overtime.
The creation of an overtime reserve within the Salaries Reserve Fund will allow funds to be
set aside for the payment of overtime without committing them to particular departments. Such funds
would be transferred into departmental budgets at the end of each month, based on the actual cost of
the overtime worked during that month. This is the way Emergency Salaries are handled and it has given
a good control over such expenditures.
A twelve month projection of a detailed account overtime payments made during the first seven
months of 1967 indicates that approximately $193.000 will be paid in ov*.rtillic. diis .01W7

1252 Supervisors Minutes Continued. October 2, 1967
FRINGE BENEFITS
As major changes were made in the County's fringe benefit programs last year, only minor
changes are recommended for 1968. Most of the changes are refinements brought about by experience
with the programs.
COMPENSATION FOR COURT APPEARANCE TIME FOR SHERIFF'S DEP I ON NON-SCHEDULED SHIFT TIME
Present Plan
$4.00 for each day appearing in Justice or Municipal Court on non-shift time, regardless
of the number of length of such appearances that day.
$8.00 for each day appearing in Circuit Court on non-shift time, regardless of the number
or length of such appearnees that day.
In each case, the Court must have verified the appearance in writing before the payment
was made.
Recommended Plan
Pay straight time pay for such non-shift Court appearances, for the time actually worked,
as verified by the Court in writing before payment is made.
SERVICE INCREMENT PAY PLAN (Longevity)
Present Plan
The percent of Service Increment pay is applied to the base salary step of the salary range
for the employee's classification, regardless of the salary step the employee is currently receiving.
Recommended Plan
Apply the Service Increment percentage to the actual salary step the employee is receiving.
The increased cost to the budget in 1968 will be approximately $19,000.
The system will become much more equitable in its application as some classes have salary
ranges of $4,000 difference between base and maximum steps. Those on a flat rate receive a definite
advantage under the present plan as they already receive the percentage of the salary actually received.
ANNUAL LEAVE PLAN
In order to more adequately meet competition in recruiting, the following changes in the
County's annual leave plan are recommended.
Present Plan Recommended Plan

Days Earned In County Days Earned In

The proposed plan more closely follows that of the major employers in this area.
OVERNIGHT PAY AT CAMP OAKLAND
This applies to those employees who in addition to working their regular Shift as Children's
Supervisors, are required to stay overnight at the Camp one or two nights per week, overseeing the
children during the night.
Present Plan
$5.00 per night
Recommended Plan
$10.00 per night
NIGHT SHIFT DIFFEREATIAL
Present Plan
Pays a bonus of 25¢ per hour to the employees of the Oakland County Sanatorium, Children's
Village, Camp Oakland and Teletype Service for time actually worked on the afternoon and midnight shifts.
Recommended Plan
Add employees of the following departments to this coverage: Heating Plant, Garage, Airport,
Maintenance and Building Operations.
SICK LEAVE REIMBURSEMENT
Present Plan
Allows for the half pay of all unused sick leave days in excess of 100, once a year or on
separation from the County service. Last year this was amended to allow half pay for all unused sick
leave on retirement.
Recommended Additions
1. Pay half pay for all unused sick leave to the survivor in the event of an employee's death.
2. Define retirement as "retirement with a pension" so that this provision does not apply
to those retiring on deferred pension. In such cases, an employee may work for the County ten years,
leave to work for another employer for many, many years, but leave his County retirement funds on deposit
and get a County pension when he reaches retirement age. This change will save the County from having
to keep track of the sick leave days over that period of time, which could be thirty years or more.

The Chairman of the Board made the following statement:
"At this time, in accordance with the requirements of State law and the By-Laws of this
Board, a Public Hearing is now called on the 1968 proposed annual budget for the County of Oakland.
Legal notice of this Hearing was published in The Pontiac Press and The Daily Tribune, daily papers
of general circulation in the County, on September 23, 1967, and a copy of the budget was placed in
the office of the County Clerk for public inspection. In addition, copies of the budget have been
mailed to all members of the Board of Supervisors in accordance with the By-Laws."
The Chairman asked if any person wished to speak on the budget.
No person requested to speak and the Public Hearing was declared closed at 10: 35 A. M.
Mr. McAvoy presented the following amendment to the Budget:
Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen:
On behalf of the Roads Committee, I move to amend the Ways and Means report as follows:
1. Delete the first sentence on the second page of the report which reads, "Your Committee
has carefully considered the best use of the expected County return from the State Income Tax and in
that connection recommend that the proceeds from this tax for the year 1968, or the equivalent of such
return in non-tax revenues be placed in the County Building Fund toward the construction of the new
critically needed County Jail."
2. Change the wording of the second sentence on the second page of the report which now reads,
"Plans for this facility are now being prepared for 1968 implementation" so that as amended it will
read, "Plans for critically needed County Jail are now being prepared for 1968 implementation."
Mr. Chairman, on behalf of the Roads Committee, I move the adoption of the foregoing amendment
and hereby request permission to read a resolution adopted by your Roads Committee at its meeting of
September 29, 1967.
Moved by McAvoy supported by Brennan the amendment be adopted.
Mr. McAvoy read a resolution adopted by the Roads Committee at their September 29, 1967 meeting.
Discussion followed.
A sufficient majority having voted therefor, the amendment was adopted.
Mr. Mastin recommended that the Personnel Policies Committee reconsider the salaries of the
Clerk-Register of Deeds, Treasurer and Drain Commissioner.
Discussion followed.
Moved by Frid supported by Peterson the salaries of the Clerk-Register of Deeds, Treasurer
and Drain Commissioner remain the same, without an increase.
A sufficient majority net having voted therefor, the motion lost.

IN RE: REPORT ON COUNTY 1967 LEGISLATIVE PROGRAM
To the Oakland County Board of Supervisors
Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen:
The report by the County Legislative Agent to the Chairman of the Board of Supervisors, in
accordance with his contract, has been received.
This Board, by Miscellaneous Resolution #4647, adopted a five-point County 1967 Legislative
Program and your Legislative Committee herewith reports the following results:
1. Senate Bill #479, which would abolish the office of coroner and create the office of
medical examiner in certain counties was introduced in 1966 and revived in 1967 and, after many confer-
ences between Senate and House Conference Committees, the agreement was returned to the House minutes
before final adjournment. The bill was not acted upon with final agreement or amendments and is still
alive for the 1968 Session.
2. House Bill #3254, which would amend the so-called Hutchinson Act, to provide that employees
of any Police Department or any agency engaged in, or having the responsibility for law enforcement
work shall not join or belong to any labor organization or affiliate that admits non-police employees
to membership, was introduced and held in Committee. A substitute Senate Bill #180 was introduced and
passed by the Senate, sent to the House and referred to Committee on Appropriations. The bill is still
alive.
3. H. B. #2183, which would amend Act 98 of the Public Acts of 1964 to provide that any Law
Enforcement Officer also be included in the persons required to file reports of child abuse, was passed
in both Houses and is now Act 219, Public Acts of 1967.
4. H. B. #2192 would amend Act 312 of the Public Acts of 1957 and provide additional funds to
an Intermediate School District for the operation of and educational programs for wards of the Court.
This bill was referred to the Education Committee which refused to put it out, and it also was opposed
by various school people.
5. Senate Bill #132, which would increase the amount of matching funds from the State for
foster children care, was referred to the Senate Appropriations Committee where no money was made
available this year. The bill is alive for 1968.
The foregoing results show that three bills are still alive, one bill died in Committee and
one bill passed and became law, for a total attainment of 20%.
Mr. Chairman, on behalf of the Legislative Committee, I move the adoption of the foregoing report.

IN RE: REPORT ON 7TH DISTRICT SUPERVISORS REQUEST FOR EMPLOYMENT OF LEGISLATIVE AGENT
To the Oakland County Board of Supervisors
Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen:
The Michigan State Association of Supervisors 7th District Legislative Committee, which is
comprised of members from Oakland, Macomb, Genesee, St. Clair, Huron, Sanilac, Lapeer and Tuscola
County Boards of Supervisors, referred a recommendation to your Legislative Committee that the eight
county Boards of Supervisors comprising the 7th District adopt a plan to employ a legislative agent,
with cost to be paid on a per capita basis, based on the most current census information available,
to represent our legislative views in Lansing.
Your Legislative Committee, at its meeting on August 29, 1967, considered this matter at
length and did not concur in the recommendation for the following reasons:
1. That the County of Oakland presently maintains its own paid full-time lobbyist.
2. The County of Oakland's membership in the State Association of Supervisors also includes
the services of the Association's legislative lobbyist.
THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of Supervisors does not concur in the
recommendation of the 7th District Legislative Committee that a full-time legislative agent be employed
to represent the eight counties of the 7th District of the Michigan State Association of Supervisors.
Mr. Chairman, I move the adoption of the foregoing resolution.

IN RE: LEGISLATIVE AGENT
To the Oakland County Board of Supervisors
Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen:
Your Legislative Committee has considered the future direction of assistance to our Oakland
County Legislators in support of our program. It was the consensus of the Committee that the Chairman
of the Committee discuss with the Ways and Means Committee the possibility of adding a staff person
to maintain contacts with the Legislature. This policy was suggested in an effort to meet the changing
complexion of the legislative procedure by wider utilization of department heads, members of the Board
and technical persons in the presentation to the Legislature of the needs of the County and the propriety
of proposed legislation. It was also felt this Board would have closer and more direct contact with a
staff person in the area of maintaining the policies established by this Board than is possible under a
contract with an outside agency.
THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the duties of Legislative Agent be assigned to a County staff
member.
Mr. Chairman, on behalf of the Legislative Committee, I move the adoption of the foregoing
resolution.

IN RE: AUDITOR GENERAL-LOCAL TAXES COMMITTEE REPORT
To the Oakland County Board of Supervisors
Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen:
Your Auditor General-Local Taxes Committee has examined reports from the various townships and
cities having taxes to be spread upon the County tax roll, and has checked these reports with the
pertinent law (Sec. 37 General Property Tax Law), has caused corrections to be made where necessary,
has held a public hearing on September 27, 1967 and now certifies that such reports are correct and
in order.
Your Committee has tabulated the total amount of taxes to be spread on the tax rolls, which
tabulation is attached hereto and made a part hereof.
Your Committee has prepared tax warrants showing the amounts authorized to be spread, which
warrants are submitted herewith, and which are the basis for the tabulation above mentioned, and it is
recommended that your Honorable Body authorize the Clerk to sign these warrants.
Your Committee offers the following resolution:
1. BE IT RESOLVED that this Board adopt this report of the Auditor General-Local Taxes
Committee with the recommendations herein contained as a part of the permanent records of the Board.
2. BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Clerk be authorized and directed to sign the several
tax warrants on which the attached tabulation was based, thereby authorizing and directing the
various assessing officers to levy the amounts set forth therein for 1967.
Mr. Chairman, on behalf of the Committee whose signatures appear below, I move the adoption
of the foregoing resolution.

It is difficult for any such representative to become acquainted with 110 members of the
House and 38 members of the Senate and to give each member information as to the problems of Oakland
County in a complete non-partisan manner. The services of Jack Semann have been invaluable to the
undersigned in securing information to assist us in properly evaluating these problems and submitting
suitable legislation to meet the needs of the people. His contact with the Senators and Representatives
outside of Oakland County has assisted greatly in our legislative brethren being informed of our
problems and in soliciting their support.
Many of us have known Jack long before he became the legislative Agent and we consider that
he has contributed much to the welfare and betterment of Oakland County. We regret that he will no
longer be available to provide the communication between the officialdom of Oakland and the Legislature.
We wish to commend his service to the community and his assistance and understanding and we
trust that our commendation may be spread upon the records of Oakland County.
Respectfully,
L. Harvey Lodge, Senator, 17th District Clifford H. Smart, Representative, 60th District

IN RE: LEGISLATIVE REPRESENTATION—SUPPLEMENTAL HELP FOR CORPORATION COUNSEL'S OFFICE
To the Oakland County Board of Supervisors
Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen:
For some time now, this Board member has been questioning the system of limiting our
legislative representation to a singular individual to cover the problems of the County before the
Legislature.
For this reason, based on my own past experience as a member of the House of Representatives
and a former member of the Legislative Committee of this Board, and now a member of the Ways and
Means Committee, it is my opinion that supplemental help be immediately provided to the Corporation
Counsel's Office to implement the heretofore provided legislative representation provided by this
Board of Supervisors.
This implementation to continue until such time as the Corporation Counsel's Office
designatee has attained experience, in order that we maintain the already existing report by
providing whatever funds are nece-ssary for continuance of this good relationship.
Therefore, I move, Mr. Chairman, that this be referred to the Ways and Means Committee
for study and funding and that thereafter, it be referred to the Legislative Committee of this
Board for implementation by the securing and continuing of proper representation of the Oakland
County Board of Supervisors in the Legislature of the state of Michigan.

A, Pay to the Township of Farmington (and charge to its share of the fund) the moneys

said developers
B. Defray the share of each of the townships of the cost of all or part of any other
extensions to the 13 Mile Road Arm as the parties hereto may hereafter agree but only
to the extent of each township/s share in said fund balance.
C. Reimburse to each of the Townships, but only after all three sections of the 13 Mile
Road Arm and any other agreed extensions thereto are completed, the amount of the balance
credited to the township in said fund.
In addition each township shall establish a "13 Mile Road Arm Connection Charge Fund" in which shall be
placed and segregated all connection charges collected by each of the townships with respect to the
13 Mile Road Arm, and for this purpose each of the townships hereby covenants and agrees to (1) adopt
and enforce the necessary ordinance or ordinances to impose such connection charges; (2) collect all
connection charges when due under the terms of said ordinance or ordinances and deposit the same forth-
with to the credit to its said fund; and (3) refuse and prevent connection, directly or indirectly, to
the 13 Mile Road Arm without payment of the applicable connection charge.
8. The county shall acquire or construct Section 3 of the 13 Mile Road Arm, as shown on
Exhibit "A", at the estimate of the cost of so doing substantially as shown on Exhibit "B" hereto, or
as shown on revised Exhibits "A" and "B" hereto, in all respects as provided in this Agreement and the
county shall use part of the proceeds of its bonds plus the proceeds of any Federal grant hereafter
received applicable thereto, to pay the cost of the same.
9. Each of the townships does hereby pledge its full faith and credit for the prompt payment
of the aforesaid obligations and shall each year levy a tax in an amount which taking into consideration
estimated delinquencies in tax collections, will be sufficient for the prompt payment of any amount
falling due before the time of the following year's tax collecticn, unless at the time of making such
annual levy there shall be cash on hand (as provided for in paragraph (2), Section 12, of Act No. 185,
Public Acts of 1957, as amended) earmarked for the payment of the current obligations for which the
tax levy is to be made, or available in the 13 Mile Road Connection Charge Fund for this purpose as
herein provided, or available out of the bond proceeds as capitalized interest, in which case the tax
levy for that year or those years may be reduced by that amount. Funds for which credit may be so taken,
shall be raised by one or more of the methods set forth in paragraph (2), Section 12 of said Act 185,
Public Acts of 1957, as now existing or hereafter amended, primarily by the exaction of connection
charges or by the levy and collection of special assessments on properties within the district specially
benefited.
10. The county shall issue its negotiable bonds to defray the cost of said Arm which bonds
shall be secured by the full faith and credit pledges of the townships under this Agreement, as provided
for in Section 11 of said Act 185, Public Acts of 1957, as amended, and, if 3/5ths of the members elect
of the Board of Supervisors shall approve, the full faith and credit of the County of Oakland shall be
pledged to the prompt payment of said bonds, principal and interest. Said bonds shall be issued pursuant
to the provisions of said Act and the applicable general statutes of the state, where not in conflict
with said Act.
11. The provisions of this Agreement shall not be modified or terminated so as to impair the
security of any bonds issued by the county upon the full faith and credit pledges of the townships or
the county. It is hereby declared that the terms of this Agreement, insofar as they pertain to the
security of any such bonds, shall be deemed to be for the benefit of the holders of said bonds.
12. The townships consent to the use by the county of the public streets, alleys, lands and
rights-of-way in each of the townships for the purpose of constructing, operating and maintaining the
13 Mile Road Arm and of any improvements, enlargements and extensions thereto. Each of the townships
reaffirms its covenant and warrant that all sanitary sewage originating in its limits within the District
shall be delivered only to the Farmington Sewage Disposal System, including extensions thereto, for
transportation therein and ultimate disposal. Lands (other than highways) owned by or under the juris-
diction of the townships or the county, located within the Farmington Sewage Disposal District, shall
be liable, if sanitary sewage emanates therefrom to the same extent as privately owned lands, to pay the
charges for sewage disposal services with respect thereto.
13. No change in the jurisdiction over any territory in the townships shall in any manner impair
the obligations of this contract. In the event all or any part of the territory of the townships served
by this 13 Mile Road Arm is incorporated as a new city or is annexed to or becomes a part of the territory
of another municipality, the municipality into which such territory is incorporated or to which such
territory is annexed, shall assure the proper proportionate share of the contractual obligation of the
townships to the county, and of the contractual rights of the townships to sewage disposal service
hereunder, such proportionate share to be determined by the Board of Public Works. The determination
by the Board shall be based primarily upon the proportion of the total design capacity of the entire
13 Mile Road Arm located within the area incorporated or annexed: PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that in making
such determination the Board shall take into consideration all factors necessary to make the division
equitable. In addition, the Board shall in the case of partial incorporation or annexation, prior to
such determination, receive a written recommendation as to the proper division from a committee composed
of one representative designated by the governing body of the municipality - from which the territory is
taken, one designated by the governing body of the new municipality or the municipality annexing such
territory, and one independent registered engineer appointed by the Board. Each municipality shall
appoint its representative within fifteen (15) days after being notified to do so by the Board and
within a like time the Board shall appoint the engineer third member. If any municipality shall fail
to appoint its representative within the time above provided, then the Board may proceed without said
recommendation. If the committee shall not make its recommendation within forty-five (45) days after
1297
Supervisors Minutes Continued. December 19, 1967
its appointment or with any extension thereof by the Board, then the Board may proceed without such
recommendation. In the consideration of the matters herein provided, including the designation of
the third member of the committee, any member of the Board who is also an official of either affected
municipality shall be disqualified to act or vote. If territory in the townships not served by this
13 Mile Road Arm is incorporated as a city or annexed to another municipality, such territory shall
remain subject to the levy of a tax to support the full faith and credit pledge of the townships to
pay its obligations to the county at the same time and to the same extent as all other territory now
or then in the townships.
14. This Agreement shall become effective upon being approved by the Township Board of each
of the townships and by the Board of Public Works and Board of Supervisors of Oakland County and
properly executed by the officers of the townships and of the Board of Public Works. This contract
Shall terminate when the Base Agreement terminates.
IN WITNESS WBEREOF the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be executed and delivered
by their respective duly authorized officers, all as of the day and year first above written.

IN RE: DELOS HAMLIN DAY
To the Oakland County Board of Supervisors
Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen:
At this time, I would like permission to present a motion to this Board, and to preface my
motion with a few brief remarks.
A recent edition of The Pontiac Press called the attention of its readers to the fact that
our Chairman of this Board has served as a Supervisor of this County for the past 25 years, and as
Chairman of this Board for upwards of 12 years.
During this period, our County has undergone many changes, shifting from mainly rural to an
urban area. The increase in population has taxed the ingenuity of our officials in keeping pace with
all the problems that this change has presented.
Suffice it to say, that we have been most fortunate in having as Chairman of our Board, a
man who is not only well qualified, but has given unstintingly of his time and resources.
I believe, as the editorial suggested, a day should be set aside to honor our Chairman. If
the members of this Board are in accord with these sentiments, I recommend the adoption of this motion
and its inclusion in the minutes of this meeting, to proclaim January 26, 1968 as a County-wide
"DELOS HAMLIN DAY", and ask for a standing unanimous support of the Board.
