community college district, city, township, special assessment or drain district or other political
unit or county agency for which delinquent tax payments are due on settlement day with the county, city

WHEREAS it is hereby determined that it is necessary that this County borrow a sum not to
exceed Sixteen Million Dollars (S16,000,000) and issue its notes in anticipation of the collection of
the 1973 delinquent taxes which become delinquent on March 1, 7974, and deposit the proceeds thereof
in the aforesaid Delinquent Tax Revolving Fund; and
WHEREAS such borrowing is authorized by Chapter 4 of Act No. 202 of the Public Acts of 1943,
as amended; and
WHEREAS the total amount of unpaid 1973 delinquent taxes which will be outstanding on March 1,
27
Commissioners Minutes Continued. February 14, 1974

NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED BY THE BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS OF OAKLAND COUNTY, as follows:
I. The County shall borrow Sixteen Million Dollars ($16,000,000) or such part thereof as

district, city, township, special assessment district or any other political unit for which delinquent
tax payments other than for the year 1973 are due on settlement day with the county, city or township
treasurers.

the Treasurer all at one time or in parts at various times, provided that the notes with the earliest
maturities shall be all delivered prior to any notes with later maturities and provided further that

tofore, the County hereby covenants with the purchaser (within the meaning of the Proposed Regulations
prescribed by the Commissioner of Internal Revenue on May 3, 1973), of the Delinquent Tax Revolving
Fund Notes, Series 1974, that the County will make no use of the proceeds of said notes, which, if such

all rules and regulations thereto.
13. The County further covenants that it will not permit at any time or times any of the
proceeds of the Delinquent Tax Revolving Fund Notes, Series 1974, or any other funds of the County to
be used directly or indirectly in a manner which would result in the exclusion of any of said notes
from the treatment afforded by Section 103(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1954, as amended, by
reason of the classification of such notes as "industrial development bonds" within the meaning of
Section 103(c) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1954, as amended, and all rules and regulations relating
thereto.
14. The County shall keep full and complete records of all deposits to and withdrawals from
each of the funds and accounts in the Oakland County Delinquent Tax Revolving Fund Account No. 46191
and of all other transactions relating to such funds and accounts and of all investments and reinvest-

increase in sales tax from the sale of gasoline, copy of which is attached hereto.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the County of Oakland seek the support of the Michigan Association

The Transportation and Aviation Committee, by E. Frank Richardson, Chairman, moves the adoption
of the foregoing resolution.
TRANSPORTATION AND AVIATION COMMITTEE
E. Frank Richardson, Chairman
January 8, 1974
The Honorable William G. Milliken
Executive Office
State Capital Building
Lansing, Michigan
Dear Sir:
The absence of adequate public transportation systems in Michigan leaves the motor vehicle
as the primary and essential mode of personal and commercial transportation for the near-term future.
In spite of the energy crisis and resulting curtailment of travel, I am sure you agree that the need
remains for providing and maintaining adequate road facilities.
Like most other areas of economic activity, the functions of road construction and maintenance
in our state face significant cutbacks as a direct result of the gasoline shortage. This cutback will
reflect and be caused by shortfalls in the anticipated level of the Motor Vehicle Highway Fund which
relies importantly on gasoline tax collections and which is the primary source of road funds for the
state and its component political subdivisions.
Because of curtailed supplies of gasoline, the dollar amount of gasoline tax collections in
1974 promises to be substantially less than had been estimated. It is our understanding that original
projections of gasoline tax collections for 1974 were predicated on assumed sales volume of 4.5-billion
gallons. That projected sales volume has now been adjusted downward to 3.94-billion gallons in the face
of the gasoline shortage.
Accordingly, the Vehicle Highway Fund stands to collect $53,280,000 less in gasoline tax
revenue than had been projected prior to the energy crisis. This dollar loss will be felt across the
board in road building and maintenance -- by the Michigan Department of State Highways and Transportation,
by the cities and villages, and, of course, by the 83 county road commissions. The Oakland County Road
Commission, alone, will lose an estimated $1,864,000 as a direct consequence of the energy crisis. Road
commissions of the smaller counties will lose an even larger percentage of their anticipated revenue.
The purpose of this letter is to propose for your consideration -- and that of the legislature
-- an equitable means of partially offsetting the loss of road funds stemming from the energy crisis.
Let us consider the sales tax on gasoline. Had gasoline pump prices remained at the level
of 35-39c per gallon through 1974, gasoline sales would have generated approximately $39,450,000 in
sales tax receipts. An average 1974 pump price average as high as 65c now seems likely, however, in
light of recent price increases approved by the Federal government and predictions coming from Federal
officials.
At an average price of 65 a gallon, 1974 gasoline sales of 3,94-billion gallons would yield
sales tax collections of $78,900,000. Half of that amount, $39,450,000, could properly be regarded as
a windfall arising solely from scarcity-generated retail price increases. By constitutional provision,
the School Aid Fund would reap benefits of $19,725,000 from this windfall, and an additional $4,931,250
would go to municipalities. The remainder would enrich the State General Fund.
I do not propose that funds constitutionally earmarked for schools and municipalities be
disturbed. I do, however, propose a partial offset of the shortfall in funds for road purposes through
appropriation by the legislature of all sales tax collected on gasoline sales -- excluding the portions
earmarked for schools and municipalities -- to the Motor Vehicle Highway Fund for the duration of the
energy crisis, to be distributed as the Fund is currently distributed.
The effect would be to recapture for road purposes just over half of the anticipated funding
that will be lost because of the energy crisis. In dollars, this proposal would restore approximately
$27,616,000 of the shortfall of $53,280,000 in the Highway Fund.
In the case of Oakland County Road Commission, the proposal would restore only about $963,525
of our anticipated shortfall of $1,864,000. Road commissions in the smaller counties would fare
proportionately better, compared with their 1973 receipts from the Vehicle Highway Fund. Similarly,
cities and villages would also find their road fund losses partially offset.
I respectfully urge your earnest consideration of this proposal.
Additionally, I propose that you consider establishing a representative task force to review

options and alternatives available for adequate road financing for the duration of the energy crisis.

can be realized,
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that a new classification and salary range of "Heating Plant
Supervisor and Laundry Manager" be created at a salary range of:
BASE 1 YEAR 2 YEAR 3 YEAR 4 YEAR
$15,700 $16,300 $16,900 $17,500 $18,100

Commissioner, and Department of Parks and Recreation call for the County to grant fringe benefit im-
provements for 1974 covering either Hospitalization Insurance, Life Insurance or Income Continuation
Insurance beyond Sick Leave, with the choice of improvements to be the County's; and
WHEREAS a comparison of County fringe benefits with those of comparable and competitive
employers indicates improvements are most needed in the areas of Life Insurance and Income Continuation;
and
WHEREAS the County's current negotiations for 1974 contracts with bargaining units
representing employees of the Probate Court, Circuit Court Probation and the Hospital have reached
reasonable agreement on these fringe benefit improvements; and
WHEREAS it continues to be to the County's advantage to apply fringe benefit programs to
all eligible employees, whether they are part of the one-third represented by bargaining units or the
two-thirds not represented; and
WHEREAS the tentative cost of the proposed fringe benefit improvements is within the amount

ed with the following provisions:

of sick leave days the employee had earned in his employment with Oakland County.
VII. Benefits will be paid for a maximum period of 26 weeks from the date coverage begins.
VIII. While receiving benefits under this plan the employee will not earn and accumulate

WHEREAS the Personnel Practices Committee, on March 15, 1974, further studied the matter
and has developed a third list of proposed 1974 salaries for these classifications; and

for purposes of clarification;
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the "Personnel Practices Committee Recommendation -3/15/74"

The sole objective of this budget is to prepare for submission to the County Tax Allocation
Board a realistic total picture of the County's 1975 operational needs, those resources other than the
general property tax which will be available for that purpose, and the amount of the property tax
revenues necessary if those needs are to be implemented. That body, as charged by law, then determines
the respective tax rates for those local units, including the County, who share the 15 Mill general
property tax.
In light of this process, your Committee again advises all agencies and County Department
Heads that the recommendations herein cannot in any degree be regarded as binding until final budget
consideration when the tax rate is known and other revenues and costs can be more fully evaluated and
determined.
PERSONNEL: (Increase, 2.13 million dollars). Of this amount, 1.1 million represents
anticipated cost of 106 recommended new positions (reduced from 202 positions requested by County
departments); 1.1 million to meet 1975 anticipated salary adjustments (approximately 4.96'/).
NON-DEPARTMENTAL: (Increase, 6.0 miTlion dollars). The projected increase in Non-Depart-
mental recommendations is largely accounted for in the following:
1. Employees' costs including Hospitalization, Life, Health and Accident Insurance,
Retirement and Social Security contributions account for approximately 1.8 million dollars.
2. Continued support of the County's Road program accounts for 1.0 million dollars.
3. Anticipated case load increases in the social services General Relief Accounts for
approximately 1.1 million dollars.
4. Continuation of the C.L.E.M.I,S. program and computarization of other departmental
functions accounts for approximately $700,000 increase in our Data Processing Budget.
5. Community Mental Health increased $399,000 in support of it's State Budget.
6. Human Services Agency increased $212,000. This is to pay for it's CORE Administration
Program for one year.
DEPARTMENTAL; (Increase including personnel costs, 3.4 million). For explanation on changes
in respective departmental budgets your attention is directed to those specific explanations therein
set out.
RECEIPTS - NON PROPERTY TAX; (Decrease $759,000)
1. A decrease of approximately $339,000 in the Hospital budgeted receipts is anticipated
due to the fact that the present 160-bed facility will be replaced by a 120-bed medical care Facility .
2, State Institutions and Emergency Care receipts are reduced by approximately $250,000
due to the fact that patients under 21 years of age are now covered by the Federal Government.
3. State Reimbursement - Circuit Court Probation was decreased $100,000 because the State
changed its method of participation in this program.
4. District Court's Revenues decreased approximately $70,000, which reflects current trends
as well as anticipated effects of the energy crisis. (A large vortion of their revenue is derived
from traffic fines).
FEDERAL REVENUE SHARING: In keeping with 1974 budget policy, we are recommending the
allocation of $1,450,000 to County operations, namely: State Institutions, $300,000; Library Board,
$30,000; Hospitalization, $200,000; Law Library, $40,000; Circuit Court (Court appointed attorneys),
$200,000; Medical Examiner, $200,000; Camp Oakland, $200,000; Chapter 20 & 21 Drains, $80,000 and Juvenile
Maintenance, $200,000. The anticipated balance of $1,550,000 is allocated to the County Building Program.
CAPITAL PROGRAM: The proposed 1975 Capital Program allocates $1,550,000 for construction of
the Children's Village; $908,250 for payments to the Building Authority ($671,750 for Law Enforcement
Complex and $236,500 for Courthouse and East Wing) and 2.3 million to provide necessary funds for the
1975 Building program as outlined in the five-year building plan.
CONCLUSION: In the judgement of your Finance Committee, these recommendations, including
the joint recommendations of the Personnel Practices Committee and the Auditors, represent, insofar
as present information is available, the amounts necessary to finance County operations for 1975 on a
level necessary to carry out the essential responsibilities of the County of Oakland.
Mr. Chairman, on behalf of the Finance Committee, I move the adoption of the attached
Allocation Budget in the amount of $58,600,423, necessitating a requested property tax levy of
$42,388,556 for submission to the Count,, Tax Allocation Board.

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

OVERTIME RESERVE
The creation of the Overtime Reserve, within the Salaries Reserve Fund, allows funds to be
budgeted for the payment of overtime without committing the funds to particular departments. Overtime
is used only when the work and the time of doing it are assigned by the department head and only
employees in certain categories are eligible for overtime pay. The County's computer maintains a
running account of the overtime used, detailing it by department and employee. $776,878 was spent for
this purpose in 1973 of which $512,452 was for regular overtime and $264,426 was holiday overtime. Also
charged to this fund is the cost of pay for off-duty Court Appearance by Law Enforcement employees.
SUMMER EMPLOYMENT
Oakland County has traditionally hired college and high school students to perform a variety
of routine jobs during the summer months. Summer employees help to fill an employment gap created by
annual leaves, usually taken during the summer by regular, full-time employees. The summer employment
program lends itself well to seasonal work performed in the maintenance of County grounds, the operation
of County parks and repetitive tasks accumulated throughout the year by the various County departments.
Currently the County pays $1.75 per hour for the first year and $2.00 per hour for the second year for
Summer Clerical help. Summer Grounds help receives $2.25 per hour for the first year and 82.50 per hour
for the second year. Modifications pending in the minimum wage law will increase the minimum wage to
$2.00 tentatively effective May 1, 1974. Placing these funds for Summer Employment in the Salaries
Reserve Fund allows the Personnel Practices Committee to oversee summer employment distribution.

Commissioners Minutes Continued. April 9, 1974
TRAINING AND TUITION REIMBURSEMENT
Placing these monies in the Salaries Reserve Fund, a method first employed in the 1970
Budget, allows the Board of Auditors to coordinate, and the Personnel Practices Committee to oversee.
training activities, which have become more important as the County seeks to upgrade present employees
instead of fighting in the competitive market for the hard-to-get specialists and technicians. The
major expenditures from this fund are to finance the County's Tuition Reimbursement Program under which
tuition is reimbursed to an employee after he has successfully completed a course which was approved
by both his department head and the Board of Auditors through its Personnel Division.
CLASSIFICATION AND RATE CHANGES DURING BUDGET YEAR
Because the County is a very complex institution which is constantly changing its scope,
the duties of many positions change during each budget year. With over 2,800 positions, it is not
possible to study and report all such changes in time to be reflected in the County's annual Budget,
many changes in classification and some rate adjustments must be made during the Budget year. The
creation of new classifications and new salary rates can only be done by the Board of Commissioners
and these funds can be used only with the approval of the Board.
POSSIBLE SALARY ADJUSTMENTS
At this time, there are many unknowns affecting the 1975 salaries of County employees. Labor
Contracts will be negotiated, comparable competitive salary structures will be analyzed, the auto
industry bargaining will have taken place, the policies of the Federal Government and the condition of
the Nation's economy will all have a considerable effect on the salaries picture. The $I,111,333
recommended for this purpose at this time is 4.87 of the cost of old positions, new positions and the
Overtime Reserve.
FRINGE BENEFIT IMPROVEMENTS
$250,000 is recommended in this budget for fringe benefit improvements due to the fact that
the County will be re-negotiating all labor contracts in 1975.

IN RE: FIXED MILLAGE FOR OAKLAND COUNTY
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS we have been in the habit of adopting an inflated budget each Spring with an
inflated millage request; and
WHEREAS we then later in the year prepare another budget based on the millage we expected
and were allocated; and

It is anticipated that the Uniformed positions will be filled with existing experienced
personnel, therefore, Oakland County will incur an additional cost of approximately $15,460 for uniforms,

(Proposed changes appear on following pages.)
Occasionally departments will hire people to fill grant positions under specialized programs
for the life of the grant only using existing county classifications. Most grants require that screen-
ing for these positions be done under a recognized merit system process which provides grant employees
Merit System protection for the life of the grant.
A department head may employe a person through this process under a grant, in an existing
classification for specialized skills required by the grant while, at the same time he might not employ
that same person in the same classification under his regularly budgeted programs for lack of experience,
knowledge or other required skills.
This request for a rule change is aimed at clarifying the status of grant employees with
emphasis on their protected rights under the Merit System for the life of the grant only.

STATUS OF COMPREHENSIVE EMPLOYMENT AND TRAINING ACT OF 1973 FUNDING (CETA)
As of this date, the exact dollar amounts of Oakland County's Title I and Title 11 CETA

has not released a list of units of Government qualifying for Title II Funds. In order to qualify, a
unit of Government must have an unemployment rate of 6-1/2 , or greater for a 3 month period as determined
by the Secretary of the U.S. Department of Labor. At this point in time, the 3 month period has not yet
been selected.
The U.S. House of Representatives recently approved a Manpower funding package which included
the following appropriation levels for CETA fiscal 1974.
I. CETA Title II in the amount of $250,000,000.
2. Summer 1974 youth program funding in the amount of 5300,000,000.

EMERGENCY MEDICAL SERVICES TASK FORCE
Report to the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
May 20, 1974
The Oakland County Board of Commissioners appointed a fifteen member task force to develop
a comprehensive emergency medical services plan and a council to execute that plan. The EMS Task
Force perceives that certain commitments and actions are necessary to assure that every resident of
Oakland County will receive quality emergency care regardless of his ability to pay for these services:
I. Appointment of an Emergency Medical Services Coordinating Council
A. The composition of the Council as developed by the Task Force is contained in
Appendix I
B. The purposes and objectives of the Oakland County Emergency Medical Services Co-
ordinating Council as developed by the Task Force are listed in Appendix /I.
C. The Coordinating Council shall report directly to the County Board of Commissioners.
II. The following commitments are necessary from the County Commissioners in order to achieve
successful county emergency medical services:
A. To obtain from all communities an agreement to accept standards of level of service
as identified by the Coordinating Council. The Task Force has accepted the standards as outlined in
Appendis III ("Emergency Medical Services in Michigan - A Statement of Public Policy". February 1974).
8. To create a zealous atmosphere for the purpose of obtaining passage of all appropriate
legislation pertaining to emergency medical care.
Commissioners Minutes Continued. June 6, 1974 209
C. To authorize the Coordinating Council to develop a job classification and description
for an executive director in cooperation with the county executive. This will necessitate that an
adequate salary be made available to attract the quality of executive director that is needed to make
this entire plan work. The individual will have to possess exceptional expertise and experience in
order to fulfill the requirements of the Council.
D. To provide funds for the implementation of the Coordinating Council's recommendations.
E. Under certain circumstances it will be necessary for the County Board of Commissioners
to provide emergency medical services to municipalities unable to provide it for themselves. This may
be done on a fee-for-service basis or a contractual basis.
F. Under certain circumstances it will be necessary for the County Board of Commissioners
to aid individual communities in meeting educational and service requirements in order to maintain the
high level of proficiency as outlined by the Coordinating Council.
This Task Force believes that the above steps are necessary if an adequate emergency medical
service system is to evolve. The EMS Task Force requests that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
promptly take appropriate steps to initiate action and to stand ready to support the Coordinating
Council as requested. The active oarticipat ion of the Board of Commissioners in the ongoing EMS develop-
ment is considered vital if implementation is to occur.

IN RE: AFFIRMATIVE ACTION PROGRAM
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen:
The purpose of this Equal Employment Opportunity Affirmative Action Program resolution is to
commit the County of Oakland, as an employer, to the eventual goal of having the number of women and
minorities in its employ in each classification and department, at least equal to their representation
in the available work force in the County.
As spelled out in Section I of the Oakland County Merit System Resolution, approved by the
Voters of Oakland County, November 8, 1966, "The selection, pay, advancement and treatment of County
employees shall be based solely on Merit without reference to their political affiliation, religious
belief, racial origin or sex."
This resolution, in keeping with the guidelines of the Federal Equal Employment Opportunity
Commission and current statutes and Court decisions, directs and binds all County officials, department
heads and employees, and especially those involved in the recruitment, selection, appointment, training,
supervision and advancement of employees, to positively and affirmatively carry out these personnel
related actions in such manner as to bring about the above mentioned goal as quickly and as completely
as possible.
The Affirmative Action Program shall include but not be limited to:
1. A quarterly prepared and publicly available inventory of the utilization of women and
minorities in each classification and each department of County Government.
2. A continuing and publicly available record, categorized by sex and race, of all applicants
recruited and processed through the County's selection and appointment steps including the number
succeeding and failing at each step and showing the reasons for such failure or lack of appointment.
3. A continuing and publicly available record, categorized by sex and race, of all employees
promoted, transferred, demoted, disciplined and terminated.
4• A continuing program of advertising all County recruitment activities and examinations
in news media with a likely audience which will include women and minorities and the distribution of
such information and material to female and minority organizations in the County.
5. A continuing review of minimum qualifications required in class specifications and
examination announcements to insure their necessity, reasonableness and practicality and that they are
job related and not artificial barriers to the employment of women or minorities.
6. A continuing program of reviewing and validating the job relatedness and cultural fairness
of examination content, methodology and administration.
7. A continuing program of training present employees for future upgrading and of job
development to increase employment opportunities for the disadvantaged.
8. A continuing program of evaluating and modifying managerial, supervisory, and employee
attitudes toward the increased utilization of women and minorities in all aspects of County employment.
The Personnel Practices Committee, by Paul E. Kasper, Chairman, moves the adoption of the
foregoing Affirmative Action Program.

IN RE: ALTERNATE SOLID WASTE LANDFILL SITE
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS Independence Township has chosen to file its own Solid Waste Disposal Plan rather
than join in the proposed Oakland County Master Plan. As Independence Citizens, we feel the
responsibility of exerting every effort in suggesting to the Commission an alternate landfill site to
that originally planned for Independence Township in order that the Master Plan will not be adversely
affected by this action; and
WHEREAS the attached presentation covers details of such an alternate site, selected to meet
the criterial established in the Master Plan. This proposed site has the further advantages of place-
ment in an industrial rather than prime residential area, and potentials for saving County taxpayers
in excess of $5,000,000 in acquisition and operating costs because of its closer proximity to areas
to be serviced, and because the land itself is already county owned and presently labeled as surplus
and available,
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that County of Oakland adopt the alternate solid waste landfill
site.
Mr. Chairman, I move the adoption of the foregoing resolution.
Bernard F. Lennon, Commissioner - District #18
Moved by Lennon supported by Dunleavy the resolution be referred to Public Works Committee.

WHEREAS the City of Pontiac and the fourteen communities of the Southeast Oakland County
Incinerator Authority have been recognized in the plan filed by the county with the State of Michigan;
THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County government will work in good faith and in
the same manner with Independence Township Solid Waste Plan as they have worked with these other
communities who elected to solve their own solid waste plans at the local level. All references to
Independence Township as part of the study area, disposal area, and/or financing plan will be deleted
from the county plan.

IN RE: ADMINISTRATION AND FUNDING OF STATE MARINE SAFETY ENFORCEMENT PROGRAMS
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS Act 303 of the Public Acts of 1967, as amended, provided for Marine Safety
Enforcement through joint State-County funding of 2/3 State and 1/3 County; and
WHEREAS said piece of legislation provided approximately $1,000,000 per year in revenue for
such purposes through boat licensing fees: and
WHEREAS in the seven years this legislation has been in effect the State has met its 2/3
funding obligation to Oakland County only twice, including 1974 wherein the State cut its funding to
Oakland County by $41,550; and
WHEREAS the total amount used by the Marine Safety Division of the Department of Natural
Resources for in-house administration has grown from approximately $211,000 in 1971 to an estimate
in excess of $500,000 for 1974, or an 807 increase from 1971-72 to 1973-74; and
WHEREAS the increased administrative costs have come at the expense of actual operations
for Marine Safety enforcement at the local level throughout the State; and
WHEREAS this lack of availability of funds for operational programs apparently led to the
recent passage of S.B. 412 which increases fees for boaters, and includes classes heretofore uncovered,
to provide the funds necessary to carry out their responsibilities in the area of Marine Safety
Enforcement;
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners go on record
officially expressing our displeasure at the dispersal of Marine Safety Enforcement funds under Act
303 of the Public Acts of 1967, as amended, and forward a copy of said resolution to the Governor's
office, appropriate legislative committees, the Department of Natural Resources and all State Represent-
atives and Senators from Oakland County.

ing of marine safety programs.

Finance Committee
Fred D. Houghten, Chairman
VERMONT MUNICIPAL BOND BANK
ADVANTAGES TO LOCAL GOVERNMENTS THROUGH UTILIZATION OF THE BOND BANK CONCEPT
The direct sale of their bonds to a municipal bond bank would result in lower interest cost rates
to many governmental units. This is one of the major attractions of a bond bank. Lower interest cost
rates are possible because of the size of the bond issue offered by the bond bank and the higher credit
rating that a state bond bank issue would receive. Obviousl y , a state sponsored $20,000,000 bond bank
issue would create more investor interest than a $1,000,000 bond issue of a local governmental unit.
Over 30 new bond issues are offered at advertised sale to the municipal bond market every week.
In this arena where bond issuers compete for the investment dollar, the issues that received the most
favorable interest rates are those issues that are large and well publicized by the issuer and its
financial advisor. In fact many major municipal bond dealer firms have a policy of not bidding on
issues under $5,000,000 in principal amount while still others in lesser number will not bid on an
issue if it is not at $10,000,000 in size. The consequence of tnese policies is that the small bond
issues (even those with good credit ratings) suffer most because of (I) the lack of enough bonds in
a maturity to sustain attention in the secondary market and (2) the press of time on municipal bond
dealers to handle the more profitable larger issues.
In addition to the projected savings in interest costs that a bond bank might save there are
several other advantages among which are the following:
I. The overhead costs per bond to the local governmental unit for its local bond issue can be
reduced considerably by selling the local bond issue directly to the bond bank. In this instance the
governmental unit will save the cost of advertising the issue for sale, the cost of printing a repre-
sentative official statement or offering circular much of the cost of an out-of-state delivery to the
purchaser, the cost of printing the bonds (since the transaction can be completed with one typewritten,
fully executed bond for the total amount of the local bond issue.)
2. Major bond buyers such as insurance companies and commercial banks, usually prefer to pur-
chase bond issues that are large in total dollar amounts because larger issues are generally easier to
trade. Thus, bond issues of smaller municipalities are less attractive to investors. Many institutional
investors refuse to even consider blocks of less than 50 to 100 bonds of the same maturity because of
limited marketability.
It should be noted also that the processing costs of municipal bond dealers for reviewing the
merits of a small bond issue are nearly the same as they are for a large bond issue, thus it is in-
evitable that bond dealers will have to work for larger per bond profit spreads on small issues than
on large issues to cover the cost of this financial review.
3. Small local governments usually find it difficult and expensive to employ the experienced
legal and financial advisors necessary to assist them in the issuance of their bonds and their own
staff cannot be expected to be familiar with the intricacies of current marketing practices and the
operation of the national bond markets. These local governmental units could receive such technical
assistance from the staff of a bond hank since they would deal only with the bank.
4. A major advantage that enures to a governmental unit which sells its bond issue directly to
a bond bank is the fact that the bond hank's bonds can be sold with a 10-year call feature.
5. By selling its bond issue directly to a bond bank the local governmental unit does not have
to go to the trouble and expense (sometimes considerable) of submitting its proposed bond issue(s) to
the credit rating agencies. Both Moody's Investors Service and Standard & Poor's Corporation have a $600
minimum charge for assigning a credif rating to a bond issue of any size.

Commissioners Minutes Continued June 20, 1974
6. Interestingly enough it is not only those governmental units that have a lower credit rating on
their bond issues that are interested in participating in the bond bank program. A case in point occurs
with respect to the second issue of the Vermont Municipal Bond Bank which was sold in January of 1972. The
Vermont Municipal Bond Bank was rated "Aa" and "AA" by Moody's Investor Service and Standard & Poor's
Corporation respectively; however, the City of Montpelier, Vermont which has an Aaa rating by Moody's
Investor Service (superior to the Vermont Municipal Bond Bank's credit rating) elected to include its
S400,000 bond issue in the package of those issues sold to the Vermont Municipal Bond Bank in January
of 1972, even though Secretary & Treasurer explained to the Montpelier officials that they might obtain
a lower rate of interest by selling the Montpelier issue on their own. The Montpelier officials reasoned
that even if they should fare slightly better on their own (there is however some doubt of this since the
first bond bank ussue was distributed in about 30 states and enjoyed an excellent after market) they would
save more in issuance costs than they would lose in interest cost. The issuance costs saved would include
among others, the printing of the bonds, advertising for bids, the printing of the official statement and
notice of sale, rating services' fees for assignment of bond credit ratings and travel expenses for their
bond closing.
It is pointed out that the shortcomings in the municipal bond bank concept although they are few
in number compc.red to the advantages of the same are discussed in the paragraphs below:
I. The state is obligated, morally if not legally, to keep the reserve fund at the proper level
and to insure that the principal and interest on the bond bank's bonds are retired as they mature.
It is recognized that some form of additional security is necessary for the successful performance
of any municipal finance agency, such as a bond bank. If none were present, the bonds of the bond bank
would not be much stronger than the weakest participating governmental unit owing money to the bond bank
and the improved saleability and lower interest cost rates to governmental units would not be available.
Bond counsel for the Vermont Municipal Bond Bank has rendered an opinion to the effect that the State,
by its General Assembly, is legally authorized, but not legally obligated, to appropriate annually such
sum as shall have been certified by the Chairman of the bond bank to the Governor or the Governor-elect
as is necessary to restore the Reserve Fund to an amount equal to the amount equal to required debt
service reserve, and upon the making of such appropriations in accordance with the enabling act there
shall be paid to the Vermont Municipal Bond Bank for deposit in the R ,serve Fund the amounts appropriated.
The disadvantages here is that if the General Assembly (in the case of Vermont and the State Legislature
in other states) takes the appropriate action in one year, there is no guarantee that such action would
be taken in succeeding years. The bond bank bonds are not general obligations of the state but the legis-
lature is enpowered, though not required, to make up any deficiency in the debt service reserve fund.
Despite this lack of legal obligation, the general concensus in the investment community is that the
legislative intent to back up the bonds is clear, and that any Legislature would do this to show good
faith and protect its standing in the bond investment community.
2. Some observers felt that local governmental units might be required to deal exclusively with
the bond bank.
No such requirement appears in the Vermont Municipal Bond Bank Act. All local governmental units
are free to sell their bond issues to the bond bank or to sell then on the open market if they so desire.
3. it is presumed that a bond bank would result in increased state fiscal control. Since the use
of the bond bank would be optional with local governmental units, it would seem that a bond bank would
improve financing practices by local governments without destroying existing balances of power.
4. Many bond dealers who offer a full line of investment banking and marketing services have
privately expressed a high opinion of the bond bank concept but there are a certain number of bond dealers
that derive a very large percentage of total firm earnings from providing financial services to govern-
mental units and they are fearful that the establishment of a bond bank will be an encroachment on their
earning capabilities.
While the earnings prospects for certain bond dealers may be dimmed by virtue of having their
clients, the governmental units, sell their issues directly to the bond bank there will still be a
certain amount of financial consulting work for these bond dealers It is an old adage that you cannot
stop progress but you can change your style and bide along very well with it. In this instance I believe
that the concerned bond dealers will find new ways to offer their services and/or they will put more
emphasis in other services or merchandising lines. Certainly the bond bank's time has come and its
efficiency as a viable form of municipal financing will not be denied."

(1) This is a 9 month grant, beginning on September 1, 1974 to June 30, 1975 for approximately
$107,797, with a possibility of renewal from July 1, 1975 to June 30, 1976 for approximately $393,793.
(2) This grant, as proposed, would, in the first nine months, require a County cash contri-
bution of $5,389 and on it's second year, a County cash contribution of $19,689.
(3) Additionally, it contemplates hiring seven people during the initial grant period and
fifteen people during the second year of the grant.
(4) After the second year it is doubtful that Federal and State support for this grant will be
forthcoming. However, if such support is forthcoming, it will probably be on a 50-50 basis.
(5) In view of the uncertainty of continued Federal and State support for the program, and
taking into account Oakland County priorities for it's available resources the Finance Committee recom-
mends against applying for this grant.

Re: PERMANENT ALLOCATION OF M1LLAGE
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS, the Allocation Board has under consideration the permanent allocation of millage; and
WHEREAS, The proposal for millage allocation adopted by the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
has been declared illegal and the Board has not yet presented an acceptable proposal; and
WHEREAS, two proposals have been submitted to the Tax Allocation Board for consideration: one
for 15.25 mills submitted by Mr. Schimmel; one for 16.40 mills submitted by Mr. Reid; and
WHEREAS, a proposal for a permanent mill age must offer a single, uniform millage for townships
and also for schools; and
WHEREAS, a uniform millage would be fair and just (not to mention constitutional) as compared
with the unfair (and no doubt unconstitutional) present practice of variance; and
WHEREAS, the County should move with firmness and decision toward our often stated objective
of obtaining a fixed millage for Oakland County, a matter too many years overdue and still unresolved.
I THEREFORE MOVE that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners support one of the proposals
offered to the Allocation Board or immediately offer its own proposal, one which hopefully will be both
fair and legal.
Mr. Chairman, I would oersorally recommend support for the proposal offered by Mr, Schimmel,
and I move this resolution be referred to the Finance Committee for its immediate consideration and
report back to this Board at its next meeting.
I would also like to serve notice of intent to move to suspend the rules to consider this
resolution at the next meeting it it is not on the Agenda.
Mary M. Dearborn, District :i22
Moved by Dearborn supported by Vogt the resolution be referred to the Finance Committee.
Mr. Perinoff objected to the referral.

AYES: Montante, Richardson, Voct, Walker, Wilcox, Berman, Brotherton, Button, Dearborn, Douglas,
Dunleavy, Gabler, Hobart, Hoot, Kasper, Moffitt. (16)

RE: DEVELOPMENT OF ENERGY CONSERVATION PROGRAM
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen.
WHEREAS, the problem of adequate power supplies in Oakland County for anticipated new growth
presents an immediate and also a long-range problem; and
WHEREAS, both rising costs and diminishing supplies of energy will cause serious harm to the
well-being of the individual and to the planned growth of the County; and
WHEREAS, a comprehensive well-planned, long and short range program of energy conservation
is urgently needed; and
WHEREAS, such a program will need broad support, constant effort and centralization if it is
to succeed.

The Finance Committee, as instructed in the subject resolution, has reviewed various proposals
for the establishment of permanent millage allocation, including those submitted by Mr. Schimmel and

The Committee concurs in the need for the establishment of a permanent fixed millage and will

meets the needs of the County of Oakland.

WHEREAS two proposals have been submitted to the Tax Allocation Board for consideration; one

WHEREAS a proposal for a permanent millage must offer a single, uniform mill age for townships

with the unfair (and no doubt unconstitutional) present practice of variance; and
WHEREAS the County should move with firmness and decision toward our often stated objective of
obtaining a fixed millage for Oakland County, a matter too many years overdue and still unresolved.
1 THEREFORE MOVE that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners support one of the proposals
offered to the Allocation Board or immediately offer its own proposal, one which hopefully will be both
fair and legal.
Mr. Chairman, I would personally recommend support for the proposal offered by Mr. Schimmel,
and I move this resolution be referred to the Finance Committee for its immediate consideration and
report back to this Board at its next meeting.
I would also like to serve notice of intent to move to susoend the rules to consider this

The Finance Committee has reviewed subject grant application and reports the following:
1. This is a 9-month grant, beginning on September 1, 1974 to June 30, 1975 for approximately
$107,797, with a possibility of renewal from July 1, 1975 to June 30, 1976 for approximately $393,793.
2. This grant, as proposed, would, in the first nine months, require a County cash contribution
of S5,389 and on it's second year, a County cash contribution of S19,689.
3. Additionally, it contemplates hiring seven people during the initial grant period and
fifteen people during the second year of the grant.
4. After the second year it is doubtful that Federal and State support for this grant will be
forthcoming. However, if such support is forthcoming, it will probably be on a 50-50 basis.

taking into account Oakland County priorities for it's available resources, the Finance Committee

IN RE: MEMORIAL - THOMAS H. OIDONOGHUE
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen:
Thomas H. O'Donoghue, a former member of this Board, passed away on July II, I974, having
attained the age of 84 years.
He was born on October 28, 1889 in Elk Falls, Elk County, Kansas, the son of Dr, Thomas H.
O'Donoghue and the former Ellen LaVelle
He resided at 605 Albany Avenue in Ferndale since 1920 and launched his public service career
in his beloved home town in 1940, which brought him hundreds of admirers, friends and acquaintances.
Thomas H. O'Donoghue was appointed Clerk of the City of Ferndale in 1933 in which capacity he
served for 23 years, retiring in 1956 at the age of 66 years to begin another political career as an
elected City Commissioner for 12 years, became an appointed member of the Oakland County Board of Super-
visors, was elected the first County Commissioner from his district, served one term and resigned in
December of 1970.
He served on the County's Board of Institutions, Finance Committee, Ways and Means Committee
and was a member of the Public Works and Aviation and Transportation Committees.
In 1968 the Ferndale Exchange Club awarded Tom O'Donoghue its "Book of Golden Deeds", the
community's traditional accolade of respect and affection.
He delighted in jest, was quick in repartee, considerate in conversation and ever mindful of
the human dignity and respect of his fellow man.
Tom devoted a lifetime in service to the community, working in the best interests of all of
the citizens of Oakland County and will long be remembered by all who were privileged to know him. His
beloved wife Jessie, who passed away in October of 1973, also shared his dreams, inspirations and endeavors
that make our community a better place in which to live.
Mr, Chairman, I move that the foregoing resolution be spread upon the minutes of this meeting
of the Oakland County Board of Commissioners.

the project or any portion thereof, prior to the issuance of bonds, then the obligations of the munici-
pality shall be adjusted and limited accordingly. If the municipality shall fail to make an/ of such
payments when due, the amount thereof shall be subject to a penalty of one-half of one percent (1/2 of

ing to the county, bonds issued hereunder of a like principal amount maturing in the same calendar year,

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 contractual oblieation of the municipality in respect
to the project shall be reduced by the principal amount of bonds so called or purchased, said reduction

the request of the municipality and upon approval by the Oakland County Board of Commissioners, to
improve, enlarge or extend the System in the municipality.

the project, or any part thereof, 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
Commissioners 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 municipality 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 payments to be made by the municipality, in the manner specified in paragraph 6
of this contract, shall be based upon the aggregate amount of the bonds outstanding. In lieu of the
issuance of such additional bonds, any other method may be agreed upon by the county and the municipality
to provide the necessary funds to complete the project.
9. The municipality, pursuant to the authorization of paragraph (2), Section 12 of Act 185,
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 prior to the year that it will first be required to make payments to the county in accordance
with the provisions of paragraph 6 of this contract, levy a tax in an amount which, taking into con-
sideration 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 Michigan, 1957, or any
amendments thereto. The obligations of the municipality hereunder and its obligations under the Base
Contract and under any other contract heretofore or hereafter entered into with respect to extensions
to the System in the municipality are equal and without rank or priority, one to the other.
This contract is contingent upon the county issuing its negotiable bonds as set forth in
subparagraph (b) of paragraph 4 of this contract, to defray the estimated cost of the project, or a
part of the project, which bonds shall be issued under the authorization provided in paragraph (1),
subparagraph (b), Section 11 of said Aci_ 185, Public Acts of Michigan, 1957, as amended.
10. The municipality consents to the establishment and location of the project entirely
within its corporate limits and consents to the use of its streets, alleys and public places for the

thereunder and shall contain a provision requiring that the county be notified at least ten days prior
to cancellation thereof. One copy of each policy and memorandum of insurance shall be filed with the

RESOLUTION
WHEREAS Bond Counsel has advised this Board that the bonds to be issued by the County to

interest rate of 7% or less as set forth in the Bond Resolution adopted September 20, 1973, Misc, Res.
No. 6432; and
WHEREAS the Township of Pontiac and the Board of Public Works of the County of Oakland have
approved and recommended the adoption of Revised Exhibit "B" and Revised Exhibit "C" to said Agreement
so that the increased project cost can be defrayed and so that such bonds can be issued at a rate of
interest not to exceed 81 per annum.
THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED by the Board of Commissioners of Oakland County, Michigan, that the
Revised Exhibit "B" and Revised Exhibit "C" to the Agreement, dated February 1, 1973 pertaining to the
Pontiac Township Water Supply System Extension No. 2 be approved and adopted and that the Bond Resolu-
tion adopted September 20, 1973, Miscellaneous Resolution No. 6432, authorizing the issuance of $850,000
of Oakland County Water Supply Bonds - Pontiac Township System Extension No. 2 be amended so that such
bonds can be issued at a rate of interest not to exceed 87 per annum.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Official Notice of Sale for 5850,000 Oakland County Water

STATEMENT
RE: Pontiac Township Water Supply System, Extension No, 2
On September 20, 1973 the Oakland County Board of Commissioners by Miscellaneous Resolution
No. 6430 approved the contract between the Township of Pontiac and Oakland County for the above project,
which contract included an estimate of cost prepared by the consulting engineers and dated August 13,
1973. Said estimate indicated a construction cost of $596,300.00 and a total project cost of $850,000.00.
Construction bids were received by the Board of Public Works on July 30, 1974. The total of
such bids, including bids previously received by Pontiac Township for certain "advanced construction"
was $716,416.00, which results in a total project cost of $988,000,00. An analysis of the bids by the
consulting engineers and the Department of Public Works staff reveals that sufficient competitive bids
were received and that the primary reason for the bids exceeding the estimate of cost is due to a
290
Commissioners Minutes Continued. August 22, 1974
substantial increase in labor and particularly material costs during the past 12 months.
Therefore, it is necessary to amend the estimate of cost to reflect a cash contribution by
Pontiac Township in order to provide sufficient funds to finance the project.

Recommended by Board of Public Works
RE: TROY WATER SUPPLY SYSTEM
Mr. Patnales presented the statement, revised estimates and revised schedule of payments
mentioned in the following resolution, a copy of which has been sent to each member of the Board of
Commissioners.
The following resolution was offered by Mr. Patnales:
WHEREAS the Oakland County Board of Public Works has approved and adopted, and has submitted
to this Board of Commissioners for its approval, statements of the reasons for increased costs in the
acquisition by the County of the Troy Water Supply System to serve the City of Troy, together with
revised estimates of the cost (which estimates are to be attached as Revised Exhibit "B" to the Contract
of February 1, 1973), all prepared by Hubbell, Roth and Clark, Inc., consulting engineers; and
WHEREAS the Board of Public Works has also approved and submitted to this Board of Commis-
sioners for its approval, a proposed revised Exhibit "C", schedule of payments, to be attached to the
said Contract between the County of Oakland and the City of Troy dated February 1, 1973, relative to
the acquisition and financing of said Troy Water Supply System; and
WHEREAS the City Commission of said City has approved the said revised exhibits and has asked
that the County finance said increased costs by the issuance of additional bonds as provided in the
Contract.
THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS OF OAKLAND COUNTY, MICHIGAN, as
follows:
I. That said statement and said revised estimates and revised schedule of payments be and
the same are hereby approved, that the County Clerk shall endorse thereon the fact of such approval,
and that the same shall be returned to the Board of Public Works to be attached to the said Contract
between the County of Oakland and the City of Troy, dated February 1, 1973, in as many original copies
as they may deem advisable, the said revised exhibits being as follows:
STATEMENT
Re: Troy Water Supply System
On March 15, 1973 the Oakland County Board of Commissioners by Miscellaneous Resolution
No. 6249 approved the contract between the City of Troy and Oakland County for the above project, which
contract included an estimate of cost prepared by the consulting engineers and dated February 15, 1973.
Said estimate indicated a construction cost of $7,387,600.00 and a total project cost of $9,750,000.00.
Construction bids were received by the Board of Public Works on July 1, 1974. The total of
such bids, including bids previously received by the City of Troy for certain "advanced construction",
was $11,048,116.87, which results in a total project cost of $13,600,000.00. An analysis of the bids
by the consulting engineers and the Department of Public Works staff reveals that sufficient competitive
bids were received and that the primary reason for the bids exceeding the estimate of cost is due to the
302
Commissioners Minutes Continued. September 5, 1974
substantial increase in labor and particularily material costs during the past 16 months.
Therefore, it is necessary that additional county bonds be issued to finance the Troy Water
Supply System.

IN RE: ACCEPTANCE OF TRANSPORTATION POLICIES FOR OAKLAND COUNTY
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS the Oakland County Planning Commission has presented to the Planning and Zoning
Committee the results of its year long program to gain local response to proposed Oakland County
Transportation Policies; and
WHEREAS over 700 copies of the policies have beer distributed and reviewed by members of
municipal planning commissions and over 150 meetings have been held with local planning bodies and
public officials in deliberating the intent and content of these policies; and
WHEREAS to date, over eighty percent (80%) of our constituent units of government have
initiated or completed their policy responses; and
WHEREAS these responses have led to modification of the original policy proposals so as to
bring the present revised policy set in line with local thinking; and
WHEREAS such policies offer the Planning Department guidelines for the County Plan; and
WHEREAS such policies offer the County of Oakland guidelines for the preparation of the
County inputs and comments to proposals for transportation projects; and
WHEREAS the Oakland County Planning Commission has approved the transportation policies as
presented by the Planning Commission;
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Transportation Policies as presented by the Planning
Commission, and approved by the Planning and Zoning Committee, be adopted by the Oakland County Board
of Commissioners with the clear understanding that these policies can be amended at any point in time
through additions, deletions or revisions by the County Board of Commissioners.
The Planning and Zoning Committee, by James W. Dunleavy, Chairman, moves the adoption of the
foregoing resolution.
PLANNING AND ZONING COMMITTEE
James W. Dunleavy, Chairman
TRANSPORTATION POLICIES
POLICY PLANNING PROCESS During 1972 the communities of Oakland County participated in
developing a framework for the growth of the county by providing comments and recommendations to a
set of general policy considerations proposed by the Oakland County Planning Commission. As additional
specific policies are formulated, further participation will be sought from local communities. The
seven transportation policies preserted in the following paees comprise the next phase of such an on-
going partnership in policy planning.
TRANSPORTATION ISSUES The policies deal with the following general classes of transportation
issues:
1) Public transportation.
2) The road network in the county.
3) Compatibility between route location and the natural environment.
POLICY SUB-SET Policy 4.01a proposes that transportation should be available to citizens of
the county regardless of their age, income and ability to own or operate an automobile. No specific
transportation mode is suggested to provide the proposed service.
Po/icy 4.01b proposes that high capacity transit lines be located to support
major existing central business districts and activity centers in the county.
Policy 4.01b(1) addresses the need for feeder transportation service.
338
Commissioners Minutes Continued. September 19, 1974
Policy 4.01c concerns the service levels of transit systems. Mass transit,
to develop a broad base of public support, must provide a high standard of transportation service.
Policies 4.03a and 4.04 relate to the problem of the level of service on the
road network. Policy 4.03a encourages establishment of priorities for construction of roads in the
county. Policy 4.04 recommends improved traffic management for more effective use of the road network.
Policy 4.031] addresses the issue of adverse impact of route location on the
natural environment.
These policy recommendations are based on available data. It is expected that the policies
will be further refined upon the availability of additional data.
CHAPTER IV. CONSIDERATIONS FOR A TRANSPORTATION POLICY FOR OAKLAND COUNTY
4.01a POLICY CONSIDERATION - SHOULD OAKLAND COUNTY ENCOURAGE TRANSPORTATION THAT CAN PROVIDE
ACCESSIBILITY TO JOBS, SCHOOLS, ACTIVITY CENTERS, AND RECREATION FOR THE CITIZENS OF THE COUNTY REGARD-
LESS OF THEIR AGE, INCOME, AND ABILITY TO OWN OR OPERATE AN AUTOMOBILE?
STAFF POSITION - The aged, youth, disabled, and poor can only participate in economic,
social and cultural life if adequate transportation facilities are available to them. The U.S. Census
of Population and Housing: 1970 indicates that many persons in Oakland County do not have adequate
transportation because they cannot either own or operate an automobile. This position is based on the
following information for Oakland County in 1970.
1) The total population is 907,871, and the total number of households is 228,694.
2) There are 18,682 households (8') or 61,463 residents (70 in the county who do not have
access to an automobile.
3) Approximately 60,827 or 7: of the county's population is 65 years and over in age, and
many in this category do not drive.
4) 126,194 residents or 13.9 of the population of the county are between the ages of 10
and 15 and thus cannot drive.
5) A 1965 study estimated that a lack of adequate transportation facilities in the Detroit
metropolitan area costs the poor over 9,000 jobs.
PROPOSED POLICY OF COUNTY PLANNING COMMISSION - OAKLAND COUNTY ENCOURAGES TRANSPORTATION THAT
CAN PROVIDE ACCESSIBILITY TO JOBS, SCHOOLS, ACTIVITY CENTERS, AND RECREATION FOR THE CITIZENS OF THE
COUNTY REGARDLESS OF THEIR AGE, INCOME AND ABILITY TO OWN OR OPERATE AN AUTOMOBILE.
CHAPTER IV. CONSIDERATIONS FOR A TRANSPORTATION POLICY FOR OAKLAND COUNTY
4.01b POLICY CONSIDERATIONS - SHOULD OAKLAND COUNTY ENCOURAGE DEVELOPMENT OF A RAPID TRANSIT
SYSTEM DESIGNED TO SERVE ADEQUATELY THE MAJOR EXISTING CENTRAL BUSINESS DISTRICTS AND ACTIVITY CENTERS
OF THE COUNTY?
STAFF POSITION - High capacity rapid transit is needed along major traffic corridors
in Oakland County. Large trip generators, major central business districts and activity centers, are
usually concentrated along these corridors. Consequently, Oakland County should encourage development
of a rapid transit system which serves large trip generators and, therefore, attracts optimum patronage.
PROPOSED POLICY OF COUNTY PLANNING COMMISSION - OAKLAND COUNTY ENCOURAGES THE DEVELOP-
MENT OF A RAPID TRANSIT SYSTEM DESIGNED TO SERVE ADEQUATELY THE MAJOR EXISTING CENTRAL BUSINESS DISTRICTS
AND ACTIVITY CENTERS OF THE COUNTY.
CHAPTER IV. CONSIDERATIONS FOR A TRANSPORTATION POLICY FOR OAKLAND COUNTY
4.01b(1) POLICY CONSIDERATION - SHOULD OAKLAND COUNTY ENCOURAGE DEVELOPMENT OF A FLEXIBLE
FEEDER SYSTEM TO LINK FIXED TRANSPORTATION ROUTES TO THOSE AREAS THAT DO NOT WARRANT A FIXED SYSTEM?
STAFF POSITION - Transportation planners generally agree that a single fixed trans-
portation line does not generate sufficient patronage to recoup its development and operating costs.
Some type of feeder system, therefore, is necessary to increase the service area and the patronage to
be served. The feeder system is necessitated by today's development patterns which create large sprawl-
ing areas incapable of supporting or justifying most fixed systems.
The primary function of the feeder system is to gather and transport people to the
fixed route system. The secondary function of the feeder system is to serve commercial, industrial,
employment, and recreation generators of a lesser scale.
PROPOSED POLICY OF COUNTY PLANNING COMMISSION - OAKLAND COUNTY ENCOURAGES DEVELOPMENT
OF A FLEXIBLE FEEDER SYSTEM TO LINK FIXED TRANSPORT LINES TO THOSE AREAS NOT WARRANTING A FIXED SYSTEM
TO ACHIEVE A SUFFICIENT TRANSPORTATION NETWORK.
CHAPTER IV. CONSIDERATIONS FOR A TRANSPORTATION POLICY FOR OAKLAND COUNTY
4.01c POLICY CONSIDERATION - SHOULD OAKLAND COUNTY ENCOURAGE THOSE PUBLIC TRANSIT SYSTEMS
WHICH CAN BE DEVELOPED INCREMENTALLY TO PROVIDE A HIGH STANDARD OF SERVICE?
STAFF POSITION - A major objective of a public transport system is to provide trans-
portation to work, recreation and commercial areas.
Transportation systems must offer a high level of amenities to attract riders and to
develop a broader base of public support. Economic considerations dictate that the development of
transportation systems be incremental to provide ultimately the following:
1) Access to major activity centers within the metropolitan area.
2) Door-to-door travel time better than or comparable to that of the autombile.
This requires a sufficient number of stations and route lines in order to provide short walking distances
and waiting times.
3) Social and environmental acceptability, including cost, comfort and service.
PROPOSED POLICY OF COUNTY PLANNING COMMISSION - OAKLAND COUNTY ENCOURAGES THOSE PUBLIC
TRANSIT SYSTEMS WHICH CAN BE DEVELOPED INCREMENTALLY TO PROVIDE A HIGH STANDARD OF TRANSPORTATION
SERVICE.
Commissioners Minutes Continued. September 19, 1974 339
CHAPTER IV. CONSIDERATIONS FOR A TRANSPORTATION POLICY FOR OAKLAND COUNTY
4.03a POLICY CONSIDERATION - SHOULD OAKLAND COUNTY ENCOURAGE THAT A HIGH PRIORITY BE GIVEN
TO THE CONSTRUCTION OF THOSE SEGMENTS OF ROADS FOR WHICH EXISTING TRAFFIC VOLUME EXCEEDS ROAD CAPACITY?
STAFF POSITION - The rapid increase of population in Oakland County and the reliance
on the automobile for transportation have placed a heavy demand on the road network. Consequently,
many roads carry more traffic than that for which they were designed; and service levels have declined
rapidly.
In order to correct these conditions, considerations for construction programs should
include elimination of congestion, improvement of service and traffic flow. In addition, high accident
rates are an important consideration in determining construction priorities.
The highest practical level of maintenance should also be performed on all roads
throughout Oakland County.
PROPOSED POLICY OF COUNTY PLANNING COMMISSION - OAKLAND COUNTY ENCOURAGES THAT A HIGH
PRIORITY BE GIVEN TO THE CONSTRUCTION OF THOSE SEGMENTS OF ROADS FOR WHICH EXISTING TRAFFIC VOLUME
EXCEEDS ROAD CAPACITY,
CHAPTER IV. CONSIDERATIONS FOR A TRANSPORTATION POLICY FOR OAKLAND COUNTY
4.036 POLICY CONSIDERATION - SHOULD OAKLAND COUNTY ENCOURAGE THE PRESERVATION OF NATURAL
RESOURCES AND ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY IN THE EXPANSION OF EXISTING TRANSPORTATION SYSTEMS AND THE
SELECTION OF NEW ROUTES?
STAFF POSITION - Selection of transportation routes many times is based upon narrow
concepts. Two such concepts are the shortest distance between two points is a straight line and an
over-reliance on the grid system. Routes should be determined only after thorough examination and
consideration of natural features which adherence to narrow concepts may destroy.
PROPOSED POLICY OF COUNTY PLANNING COMMISSION - OAKLAND COUNTY ENCOURAGES THE
PRESERVATION OF NATURAL RESOURCES AND ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY IN THE EXPANSION OF EXISTING TRANSPORTATION
SYSTEMS AND THE SELECTION OF NEW ROUTES.
CHAPTER IV. CONSIDERATIONS FOR A TRANSPORTATION POLICY FOR OAKLAND COUNTY
4.04 POLICY CONSIDERATION - SHOULD OAKLAND COUNTY ENCOURAGE IMPLEMENTATION OF TRADITIONAL
AND NEW MEANS OF TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT AND TRAFFIC CONTROL THAT AIM AT MAXIMIZING VEHICLE FLOW AND REDUCING
ACCIDENT RATES IN THE HIGHWAY NETWORK?
STAFF POSITION - Proposals for relieving congestion or improving traffic flow in the
transportation network usually involve increasing capacity by constructing additional lanes. Con-
struction of additional lanes is usually very expensive and impractical.
Coordinated incremental measures improve the flow of traffic at a cost relatively
modest compared with the cost of constructing additional lanes. Two examples of these measures are
improved traffic management and traffic-responsive signaling.
PROPOSED POLICY OF COUNTY PLANNING COMMISSION - OAKLAND COUNTY ENCOURAGES IMPLEMENTATION
OF TRADITIONAL AND NEW MEANS OF TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT AND TRAFFIC CONTROL THAT AIM AT MAXIMIZING VEHICLE
FLOW AND REDUCING ACCIDENT RATES IN THE HIGHWAY NETWORK.
Moved by Dunleavy supported by Brotherton the resolution be referred to the Transportation
and Aviation Committee. There were no objections.

To the Oakland County Board of CommissToners
Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen:
The Finance Committee has reviewed the subject resolution and reports the following:
I. The total project cost will be 5474,721 with the Soil Conservation District absorbing
$244,695, the Michigan State Agricultural Experiment Station $30,257 and Oakland County $199,769.
2. That Oakland County's financial responsibility would be fulfilled by entering into a
five (5) year contract with the Soil Conservation District and Michigan State University as follows:

Commissioners Minutes Continued. October 3, 1974
3. Your Committee carefully reviewed the letters of support from other interested sources
within Oakland County expressing their support for the program. We also carefully studied a report
prepared by the Administrative Staff.
4. However, while your Finance Committee does not, at this time, dispute the feasibility
of such a program, we must view this request in light of the total needs of the County, and the avail-
able resources to meet those needs.
It is therefore our considered opinion that this is not a high priority item and thus
the Finance Committee does not find the available funds to finance this project.

PRESENT WORDING
• With the exception of covering time off
from work of a pregnant employee, for the
immediate pre-natal, birth and immediate
post-natal period under the provisions of
Rule 21, Maternity Cases, the fact that
a Leave is possible under these regula-
tions does not mean that the requested
Leave must be granted. A Leave of
Absence deprives the employee's department
of the services of an employee, who it is
assumed is needed if the department is to
properly do its job. Leaves of Absence
Without Pay, except in the case of
disciplinary leaves, should be considered
as a privilege and the best interests of
the department and the County Service
mInt be the determining factors in
whather such leaves are granted or not.

• Employees should notify their Department

where the Department Head or his

in Departments where the Department Head

in any case, no later than one-half hour

Departments operating on a 24-hour REASON FOR CHANGE basis are extremely hard pressed
to find replacements in an emergency. This oftentimes necessitates working staff
overtime sometimes for an entire additional shift, due to lack of time allowance for
advance planning. The result is additional unnecessary overtime expenditures and
inadequate coverage of critical work stations.

Code of Ethics for County Employees and elected officials and appointed officials; and
WHEREAS no consensus or recommendations were arrived at in considering said resolution.

CODE OF ETHICS FOR COUNTY EMPLOYEES AND ELECTED AND APPOINTED OFFICIALS
I. DECLARATION OF POLICY
Where government is based on the consent of the governed, every citizen is entitled to
have complete confidence in the integrity of his government. The public judges its government by the
way County employees and appointed and elected officials conduct themselves in the performance of
their respective duties. Devotion to the public trust is an essential part of the obligation of
public service. County employees and appointed and elected officials are the trustees of an important
branch of our system of government in which the people must be able to place their absolute trust;
for the preservation of their welfare; their safety and all in which they believe.
The proper operation of democratic government requires that County employees and
appointed and elected officials be independent, impartial and responsible to the people. County
employees and appointed and elected officials must avoid all situations where prejudice, bias, or
opportunity for personal gain could influence their decisions. Even the appearance of improper conduct
should be avoided.
The purpose of these standards is to provide each County employee and appointed and
elected official with a clear understanding of the behavior expected of them in the performance of
their public responsibilities and to give the citizens in the County of Oakland a standard by which
they may be assured that these responsibilities are being faithfully performed.
2. APPLICATION
The standards of ethical conduct set forth in this Code of Ethics shall be applicable
without exception to all employees, officers, elected and appointed officials, classified or unclassi-
fied, of the executive branch of the County of Oakland.
Nothing in the Code shall be interpreted as denying any employee his rights under the
County Merit System. In every proceeding with regard to these standards, fundamental due process
shall be followed.
3. RESPONSIBILITIES OF COUNTY EMPLOYEES AND APPOINTED AND ELECTED OFFICIALS
County employees and appointed and elected officials are agents of the public and,
while performing duties for the benefit of the public, are bound to uphold, support and defend the
Constitution of the United States and the Constitution of the State of Michigan and to administer its
laws fairly.
Employees and officials must faithfully discharge their duties to the best of their
ability without regard to age, race, creed, sex, national origin, or political belief. The Public
interest must be their primary concern and their conduct in both official and private affairs should
be above reproach.
An employee or appointed or elected official may express their personal views with
respect to public issues, however, they shall not by use of their position, represent their personal
opinions as those of their agency.
Public trust imposes 'Joon the employees and appointed and elected officials in the
necessity to pledge themselves to the proper use of manpower, property and funds under their care and to
continued economy and efficiency in the performance of their duties.
4. CONFLICT OF INTEREST
The vast majority of state employees and appointed and elected officials are dedicated
servants of the public trust and perform their duties with the utmost integrity. In order that they

By Mr. Nowak and Mr. Dunleavy
IN RE: TAXATION OF PROPERTY OWNED BY UNIT OF GOVERNMENT
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS the taxpayers of the whole of Oakland County have been unjustly subsidizing the
City of Dearborn and its taxpayers as a result of the removal of the property known as Camp Dearborn
from the tax rolls of Oakland County: and
WHEREAS the removal of said property results in a loss of an estimated $5 million dollars
of property values lost to the tax rolls of Oakland County; and
WHEREAS said Camp Dearborn is operated primarily for the benefit of Dearborn residents who
pay a nominal fee for entry to said park: and
WHEREAS non-Dearborn residents are required to pay a substantially higher fee and are other-
wise discriminated against in the use of said property; and
WHEREAS Camp Dearborn therefore is not truly a public park,
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners request the
Legislature and the Governor to enact into law statutes that would prohibit the removal from the tax
rolls of one unit of government property owned and operated by a different unit of government primarily
for the use of its citizens.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners request that all
Legislators representing Oakland Counts, be asked to co-sponsor legislation to accomplish this purpose
in both Houses of the Michigan Legislature.
Mr. Chairman, we moss' tic coption of the foregoing resolution.

Narcotic investigating officers must assume the Identity of a • .
-narcetic or drug dealer. They must comsumate deals,, make
controlled purchases of narcotics and collect evidence that will
establish the suspects as narcotic/drug dealers.• . . .

Page 9•B
The undercover officer makes controlled purchases and lets the
money "ride" in order to make larger purchases from the major
supplier. Undercover officers work Into the suspect's organi-
zation as far as they are able to go; warrants are obtained
and arrests are made. . . . . -
Investigations to arrest the major suppliers of drugs/narcotics
are a time consuming and costly operation. Monies used in
controlled purchases are not usually recovered. _
However, at the conclusion of an investigation, the undercover
officer will set up a large purchase And then make an arrest.
Wtih this procedure, a large amount of narcotics/drugs are
taken out of circulation, also monies used for this purchase
are recovered,. _ _

Of the eight speakers invited, only two could not participate, Frank Herringer, Chief
Administrator of U.M.T.A.; and Governor Norman Erbe (former Governor of Iowa), Chairman of Federal
Regional V. Council. Mr. Herringer designated Dr. Harvey (Chicago) to serve as a substitute speaker.
and Governor Erbe designated Alexander White as his substitute speaker.
The panel presentations were made in the morning from 9:00 a.m. to 12 noon, and during the
afternoon session the panelists responded to written questions from the Symposium participants.
Joe Weaver, Special Projects Director of WJBK-TV 2, served as moderator, and the topic., of
discussion were as follows:
An Overview of the Federal Regional Council
Alexander P. White, Chairman - Intergovernmental Relations Task Force Federal Regional
Council - Chicago
Federal Policies, Funding and Mechanics of Obtaining Federal Funding for Mass Transportation
Development
Dr. Thomas Harvey, Regional Representative - Urban Mass Transportation Administrator
The Role of the Department of State Highways and Transportation in Transit Development
and the Proposed $1.1 Billion State Transportation Bond Issue.
John P. Woodford, Director . Department of State Highways and Transportation State of
Michigan
The State of Michigan Policies and Guidelines for Public Transportation
Rockwell T. Gust, Chairman - Public Transportation Council State of Michigan
Southeast Michigan Transportation Authority's Plan and Proposals for High Level and
Intermediate Level Transit for the Region.
Ross Childs, Acting General Manager Southeast Michigan Transportation Authority
Development of Transit Network within the Framework of Regional Planning
Michael Clusac, Executive Director Southeast Michigan Council of Governments
Some Observations on Public Transit Development in the Region
Richard R. Wilcox, Chairman Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Approximately 387 persons attended the Symposium; 40 local municipalities were represented.
20 service organizations were represented, and 3 companies involved in manufacturing public transit
vehicles were represented.
Many favorable comments were received regarding the timeliness of the subject and the out-
standing manner in which the entire seminar was handled. Joe Weaver, who served as the moderator of
the Symposium, was particularly helpful in contributing to the smoothness of the program, and for the
excellent television coverage.
IMPACT AND BENEFITS:
The symposium provided timely information on mass transportation proposals, plans and
policies to local units of government.
An overview on the complex Funding issue by Federal, State and Regional representatives
provided a needed context for evaluating the regional transit proposals and transit implementation
S trategy.
383
Commissioners Minutes Continued. 3ctober 15, 1974
The symposium enabled County officials in establishing direct communication links with
transit fund allocation decision makers at Federal and State levels. An alternate and cheaper option
of implementing transit service, present by Chairman Wilcox, generated a meaningful debate and has the
potential of enormous benefits for the entire region.
The County's role as a technical advisor and analyst of complex proposals is eminently needed
and welcomed by all local units of government.
It was evident from the symposium that the role local units of government should play in
transit development is not defined or even recognizeu at regional and State levels. It would not be
beneficial to let higher levels of government equate regional agencies with local government. We should
see that a meaningful decision-making role is established for local units of government. This is a
challenge we, as Board of Commissioners, should undertake.

In November of this year two additional judges will be elected to the 52nd District Court
(1st and 3rd Divisions) to take office January I, 1975. At this time it doesn't appear that the State
will assume financial responsibility for the District Courts by January 1, 1975. Since the County is
presently responsible for the 52nd District Court, and due to the 12-week leadtime required for furniture
deliveries, it is proposed that the following allocation be approved for the essential furniture items
for the two new District Court judges:
A. Judges' Office (2 Judges)
2 Desks, 2 Desk Chairs, 2 Credenzas, 8 Side Chairs and 2 Wastebaskets
TOTAL: $3,350

District Court judges to start operations on January 2, 1975. Once the exact locations of these courts
are determined, and then based on the facilities available, the remaining furniture and equipment will
be determined and submitted to the Board of Commissioners for review and approval.

in Miscellaneous Resolutions 46562 and 6722. The County's cash contribution is increased to $3,968.00
from $2,787.00 which represents approximately 5/ of the total program. It is not anticipated that the

these Law Enforcement Planning positions will cease with the expiration of L.E.A.A. programs.

C. Employees should notify their Department
Head that they will be unable to work no
later them one-half hour before their
normal work shift begins in departments
• where the Department Head or his
designated representative is normally
on duty to receive such calls. Employees
in Departments where the Department Head

Departments operating on a 24-hour REASON FOR CHANGE basis are extremely hard pressed
to find replacements in an emergency. This oftentimes necessitates working staff
overtime sometimes for an entire additional shift, due to lack of time allowance for
advance planning. The result is additional unnecessary overtime expenditures and
-inadequate coverage of critical work stations. •

IN RE: NOTES FOR WELFARE RESOLUTION
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen:
On September 10th the Oakland County Social Services Board, with the consent of the Board
of Commissioners, enacted new policy regulations regarding General Assistance Clients. The regulations
require all employable clients to pick up their checks at the Social Service Department every two weeks
with 15 places of employment that the client has applied to for a job.
These regulations have constituted a great hardship to many clients for the following reasons:
1. The unemployment rate in Oakland County is twice the national average. Jobs for unskilled
people, ex-cons, middle-aged men and women, and those in questionable physical condition are very hard
to find. Case histories will be provided if requested.
2. According to studies by S,E.M.C.O.G. there is no reliable transportation in Oakland
County beyond one mile of the Woodward Corridor. That is, service that runs regularly at more than
33 minutes between intervals, The Grand Trunk train and D.A.S.H. bus service run only at peak hours.
3. The average cash allotment to a General Assistance client is $23 every two weeks, from
which they must buy food, clothing, and all personal items. The cost of transportation is as follows:
16iX, per mile to operate a car; Birmingham Cab: 65c to turn on meter plus 100 for 1/7 of a mile;
Checker Cab: 60c to turn on meter plus 10c for 1/5 of a mile; D.A.S.H.: Rochester to Highland Park,
45c for 6 miles plus 5 each additional 2 miles or $1.35 one way; Grand Trunk Train: $1,30 one way.
4. Since the job of M.E.S.C. is to help employable clients find work and it would seem more
logical that clients should spend what little money they have going to places of employment where there
is at least a chance that they might be hired, why isn't M.E.S.C. providing more help in finding em-
ployment for these people?
5. Why are General Assistance clients who are obviously physically unable to work being
denied assistance and/or refused hearing dates?
Example: Woman, 50s, walks with walker, 3 spinal operations, can not sit more than 15
minutes without pain. Worker came to house to inform client that unless she took part-time employment
her check would be cut. Client ask for hearing. After Social Service Director was informed of case,
client was told that check would not be cut if she dropped hearing complaint.
Example: Man, 20, has had ooen heart surgery. Got job at Oakland Mall thinking brother
could provide ride everyday which he could not. Can only do light work. Now being denied assistance
because he did not take the employment. Requested hearing but received no response.
We have documented cases of clients who were told if they drop their hearing requests they
will be given assistance. The whole object of hearings are to point out the fact that a regulation is
not doing what it was designed to do.

George W. Kuhn - Oakland County Drain Commissioner - Public Act No. 347 of 1972
Soil Erosion and Sedimentation Control Enforcing Agent - Oakland County Implementation Procedures
I. EFFECTIVE DATE - These procedures become effective on January 1, 1975.
II. INTENT OF IMPLEMENTATION PROCEDURES - To provide guidelines and information to the
Department of Natural Resources and citizens of Oakland County as to how the provisions of the Soil
Erosion and Sedimentation Control Act No. 347 of the Public Acts of 1972, as amended, hereafter referred
to as the "Sediment Act", will be administered by the Oakland County designated agent, George W. Kuhn,
Commissioners Minutes Continued. November 21, 1974 399
Oakland County Drain Commissioner. The "General Rules", as adopted by the Department of Natural
Resources, Water Resources Commission, apply and are incorporated into these procedures.
III. GOAL OF THE SEDIMENT ACT - Soil erosion and sedimentation is a slow, continuous,
naturally occurring process that has had great influence on the geologic contour, configuration and
structure of this country as it exists today. The tern "erosion" is defined as the detachment of
particles of soil from the earth's and surface through the action of wind, water, ice or gravity.
These detached particles are known as sediment, and the transportation and deposit of this sediment
to a location different from its origin is defined as "sedimentation".
The problem of erosion and sedimentation has increased greatly due to the recent trend
towards greater urbanization. Urbanization exaggerates the problem because the balance nature has
developed between rainfall and runoff is disrupted during construction without providing compensation.
The result is "accelerated soil erosion", which is defined as the increased loss of land surface as a
direct result of man's activities. The sediment generated from accelerated soil erosion ultimately
ends up being deposited in "waters of the state" with much ecological, as well as monetary damage
being incurred in the process.
The prime goal of the "Sediment Act" is to achieve effective and reasonable control of
accelerated soil erosion. This is to be accomplished by using the best practical combination of pro-
cedures, techniques and people to prevent sediment, the product of accelerated soil erosion, from
leaving the construction site and reaching the "waters of the state". This is to be accomplished by
the enforcement of Soil Erosion and Sediment Control Programs by agencies on the county or local level.
In Oakland County, Michigan, Drain Commissioner George W. Kuhn was designated on July 19, 1973, by
resolution of the Oakland County Board of Commissioners, as the County agent to implement and administer
the "Sediment Act". The three objectives of the Oakland County program are as follows:
1. To protect our lakes, streams, rivers, drains and water-courses from unnecessary
degradation due to sedimentation.
2. To preserve high quality water essential to man and the health of our natural environment.
3. To protect vital land resources from erosion.
IV. LANDS TO WHICH OAKLAND COUNTY PROGRAM APPLIES - The "Sediment Act", as administered by
the Oakland County Drain Commissioner, shall apply to earth changes on land solely within Oakland
County that (1) does not fall within the legal boundaries of any city, village or charter township
granted the status of "local enforcing agency" by the Department of Natural Resources, Water Resources
Commission, or (2) that is not part of an earth disruption project undertaken by a state, local or
county agency that has been granted by the Department of Natural Resources, Water Resources Commis-
sion, the status of "authorized public agency" to enact and enforce their own soil erosion and sediment
control programs.
V. OBTAINING AN EROSION CONTROL PERMIT -
A. PERMIT REQUIREMENTS
1. A land owner or developer who contracts for allows or engages in an earth change
in Oakland County, Michigan, except for the exemptions described in Section IV., shall obtain a permit
from the Oakland County Drain Commissioner prior to commencement of an earth change which is connected
with any of the following land use activities that disturbs one or more acres of land or is within 500
feet of a lake or stream.
a. Transportation facilities, including streets, highways, railroads, airports, common carrier
pipelines and mass transit facilities, except normal maintenance procedures such as earth or gravel
road leveling and minor repairs or alterations to rights of way not affecting a lake or stream.
b. Subdivision or lot development as defined by section 102 of Act No. 288 of the Public Acts
of 1967, being section 560.102 of the Michigan Compiled Laws, mobile home parks and multiple housing,
and the preparation of a site for a single family residence and except normal maintenance or landscaping
activities or both.

normal maintenance or landscaping activities or both.
e. Recreational facilities, including but not limited to parks, campgrounds or trails, except
normal maintenance or landscaping activities or both.
f. Utilities, including but not limited to underground pipelines or cables, except pole
installation, service lines and other earth changes of a minor nature, normal maintenance and emergency
repairs.
g. Oil, gas and mineral wells, except the installation of those wells under permit from the
supervisor of wells to be in compliance with the conditions of the sediment act.
h. Water impoundments and waterway construction or improvements.
2. Exemptions provided in Section V., subsection A (1) shall not be construed as
exemptions from enforcement procedures pursuant to the "Sediment Act" or these procedures, if the
activities exempted cause or result in a violation of the "Sediment Act" or produce a significant
erosion hazard or sediment problem.
B. PERMIT EXEMPTIONS (Grandfather Clause) - Unless determined by this office that an
earth change project is creating a severe soil erosion or sedimentation problem; requirements of
Section V., subsection A are not applicable to existing projects on which firm bids have been taken
or awarded prior to March 1, 1975. (which is 60 days after the effective date of these implementation
procedures.)

Commissioners Minutes Continued. November 21, 1974
C. APPLICATION FOR A PERMIT
1. General - An application for a permit shall be submitted to the Oakland County
Drain Commissioner's office by any person proposing to undertake an earth change, as defined in
Section V., subsection A. In the case of land development, the application shall be submitted by
either the land owner, or the land developer, or in their absence, an agent authorized by the owner
or developer.
2. Application Forms - The application shall include two separate written applica-
tion forms, both of which will be furnished to the applicant by this office. They will consist of
the following:
a. The State of Michigan application form
b. The Oakland County application form
3. Time of Application - Application for a permit under these procedures shall be
made prior to the start of any work including construction of access roads, driveways, tree and shrub
removal or grading. Any such unauthorized work will be considered a violation of these procedures
regardless of any later actions taken toward compliance. Soil test borings, vegetative cutting for
land surveys and percolation test efforts will not be considered a start of work under these procedures.
4. Sequential Applications - On those projects so large or so complex that a plan
encompassing all phases of the project cannot reasonably be prepared prior to initial ground-breaking,
application for permit on successive major incremental earth change activities may be submitted.
All permits issued on this basis will be clearly defined as to nature and extent
of work covered. Any earth change beyond, or subsequent to, that described on the permit must be
covered by a separate approved plan before it may be undertaken.
5. Plan - The application shall be accompanied by three (3) complete sets of the
proposed soil erosion and sedimentation control plan, as set forth in Section V., subsection D.
6. Authorized Public Agency - As described in Section IV, an "authorized public
agency" is exempt from obtaining a permit from the Oakland County Drain Commissioner. However, such
agency is still required to notify this office of each proposed earth change to be undertaken.
D. PLAN REQUIREMENTS
1. General
a. Intent - It is the intent of these requirements to provide enough information
upon which to judge the adequacy of the design relative to the goals of the "Sediment Act", as
described in Section 111. In general, the plan shall be designed to effectively reduce, "accelerated
soil erosion" and control any sediment generated, and shall identify factors which may contribute to
soil erosion or sedimentation or both.
b. Additional Information - Should the information specifically required by these
implementation procedures be inadequate to meet the intent because of unusual site or project conditions,
the applicant will be required to submit additional information, as circumstances require.

the Registration Act, well prepared plans not prepared by a Registered Engineer or Architect will be
allowed.
2. Specific Plan Requirements for Land Development - The magnitude and scope of the
earth disrupting project and its potential for causing a soil erosion and/or sedimentation problem
will have a direct bearing upon the scope and requirements of the plans. in general, the plans shall
include, but not be limited to the following:

open drainage courses and swales, retention and sediment basins, and the point of discharge of storm
water. The following should be included:
a) storm drain, retention basin and sediment basin design calculations
b) the amount of acreage contributing to each specific inlet
c) storm drain and road profiles
4) It shall show existing ground elevations surrounding the site on all sides to a
distance of 100 feet.
e. Erosion and Sediment Control Plan
This plan should include the following:
1) A description and location of the limits of all proposed earth changes.
2) The timing and sequence of all proposed earth changes.
3) A description, the location and details of all proposed temporary erosion and
sediment control measures.
4) A description, the location and details of all proposed permanent erosion and
sediment control measures.
5) A program proposal for the maintenance of all erosion and sediment control
facilities both during and after construction. Those which are to remain after project completion
must include a designation of the party responsible to carry out that maintenance.
F. Combination of Plans - Depending upon the magnitude of the project, the Oakland
County Drain Commissioner will permit the consolidation and combination of the plans required in the
proceeding sections, provided clarity and completeness can be retained.
g. Waiver of Plan Requirements - On very small projects, the specific plan require-
ments described in the proceeding sections nay be modified and permits issued on less rigorous
requirements. However, such plan must include sufficient information to assure that accelerated soil
erosion will be controlled and that no sediment will leave the construction site,
3. Specific Plan Requirements for Utility Construction Plans for utility construction
that is not part of a developing site shall include, but not be limited to the following:
a. All features of the erosion and sediment control plan as described in Section
V., subsection D2e.

5. On projects requiring a bond, permit will not be issued until the applicant has
posted with this office a bond in the amount and the form stated hereinafter in Section X.
6. The soil erosion permit, or a copy thereof, along with a complete set of the approved
soil erosion and sedimentation control plans, shall be available at the site of the earth change for
inspection at all times.
Vt. EROSION CONTROL MEASURES AND DESIGN PRINCIPLES
A. GENERAL
The erosion and sedimentation control measures prescribed hereinafter shall in in-
corporated into the soil erosion and sedimentation control plans, as described in Section V., sub-
section D, unless the person preparing the plans demonstrates to the Oakland County Drain Commissioner
that proposed alternatives to these procedures will be superior in the prevention of accelerated soil
erosion and its resulting sedimentation.
B. CONTROL MEASURES
1. All earth change activities shall be designed, constructed and completed in such
a manner so as to limit both the area and time of earth disruption to the practical minimum.
2. Sediment caused by accelerated soil erosion shall be removed from runoff water
before it leaves the site of the earth change activity.
3. All temporary and permanent facilities constructed for the conveyance of storm
runoff around, through or from the earth change area shall be designed to limit the flow to a non-
erosive velocity.
4. Temporary soil erosion and sedimentation control facilities shall be removed only
after permanent soil erosion control measures have been implemented.
5. Permanent soil erosion control measures for all slopes, channels, ditches or any
disturbed land area shall be completed within 15 calendar days after final grading or the final earth
change has been completed.
6. During the non-growing season, when it is not possible to permanently stabilize
a disturbed area after an earth change has been completed, or where significant earth change activity
ceases, temporary soil erosion control measures shall be implemented within a period not exceeding 30
calendar days.
7. All temporary soil erosion control measures shall be maintained until permanent
soil erosion control measures are implemented.
C. DESIGN PRINCIPLES
1. The development should be planned and designed to fit the topography of the site.
2. The smallest practical area of land should be exposed for the shortest possible
period of time.
3. Soil erosion control practices should be applied as first line of defense against
onsite damage, thereby decreasing the amount of sediment that is generated.
4. Sediment control practices should be applied as a second line of defense to prevent
any sediment that is generated during construction from leaving the site.
5. A thorough maintenance and follow-up operation should be implemented, as a site
cannot be effectively controlled without thorough, periodic checks of erosion and sediment control
practices.
VII. SOURCES OF DESIGN CRITERIA

adequacy of soil erosion and sedimentation control plans using design criteria obtained from but not
limited to, the following sources:

of $1,111,561, or 90%, is from Federal sources.
In the third year of this program, the County's contribution will increase to 50% or
approximately $360,167. The Federal funding will supply 47.5/ and the State will fund 2.5A. Acceptance
of the third year commitment carries a mandatory agreement to continue the program for a fourth year

IN RE: SHERIFF'S MARINE SAFETY GRANT
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen:
This is the eighth year of a continuing grant involving the enforcement of laws providing
for the safe use of lakes and rivers in Oakland County.
Total 1975 budget of $151,525, is $13,775, or 104 greater than 1974. 'ncreased overtime
costs, replacement of two boats, increased cost of diving supplies and radio rentals and an officer
training program are the major reasons for the increase. The 1975 County portion amounts to $50,508,
or 1/3 of the total program costs. Although the State's reimbursement has not amounted to the 2/3
figure the past several years, the increased revenues which will be generated by Senate Bill 412
should warrant a 2/3 State reimbursement of approved expenditures during 1975,
The Finance Committee concurs with the recommendation of the Public Protection and Judiciary
Committee for application of renewal of the Marine Safety Grant.

IN RE: ANNUAL REPORT OF THE BUILDINGS AND GROUNDS COMMITTEE
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen:
In accordance with Section X, Rule HAH of the Rules for
sioners, your Buildings and Grounds Committee has made its Annual
and grounds; and, is pleased to report that it found the majority
rily maintained, cleaned and repaired. The conditions speak well
employees of the Department of Facilities and Operations.
During this past year there have been many accomplishments in the Facilities Capital Improve-
ment Program. Construction on Children's Village Phase II, started in June 1973, will be completed
by December 1974, and occupied in January 1975. The cost of this project $4,379,000, is being financed
out of Revenuing Sharing Funds. Administrative Annex II Renovation, which furnishes office space for
the Planning Commission, Equalization and Friend of the Court, was completed and occupied in March
1974. The Court House Complex marble and roof renovation work was completed this year; and, the
county filed suits against the contractors, who built the Court House Complex, to recover the cost
of the renovation.
The Ground Breaking Ceremony for the new 120 bed Medical Care Facility, costing $2,660,000,
was held in November 1974. Your Committee spent many hours analyzing different feasibility studies
in regards to the type, size and location of the facility. The Medical Care Facility project is unique
in that it is the first design-built concept project that the county has ever entered into.
A new 60,000 pound per hour steam boiler is being installed at the Central Heating Building
to increase the capacity of the plant to meet the needs of the expanding facilities on the Service
Center. Bids were approved in February 1974, for a total project cost of $402,125.
Also, major renovations of office space in the Court House Complex were approved and are
scheduled for completion by the first of 1975, at a total cost of $206,000.
With the vacancy of the Children's Village Reception Center and Shelter Care Cottage, as the
Juvenile Division will be moving into their new quarters, an Office Space Needs Study was made and an
architectural firm hired to prepare drawings and specifications for the renovation of the buildings.
With the additional office staff required by the Michigan Department of Social Services, new
quarters had to be found in the Royal Oak area. The Board of Commissioners has approved the Conga
Building and your Committee is presently negotiating a Lease for the space.
Also, this year the Lease for the Community National Bank in the Court House and the Lease
for the 52nd District Court, Third Division at 530 Pine Street, in Rochester, were renewed.
Your Committee is presently investigating office space for the additional Judges in the 52nd
District Court - First and Third Division areas; and a site for a new Police Academy.
Special reports were reviewed - a Winter Tree Program which would provide mature trees for
the Service Center; and a central control system to monitor heating, air condition, security and fire
safety for the Pontiac Service Center facilities.
While it would be impractical to know each of the major repairs and alteration programs of
this past year, your Committee would like to report that it has been necessary to carry out a continuous
program of alterations and repairs to provide adequate functional space for the county departments
and agencies. The largest of the major projects were: The Animal Control Division moved into their
new quarters in the Central Services Building; the old Animal Shelter building was converted to house
the Central Laundry's dry cleaning operation; Alcoholism's central office expansion was completed at
the South Oakland Health Center; the District Court Probation Department was relocated in their new
offices in the Administrative Annex II building; additional air conditioning equipment was installed
in the Data Processing Machine Room at Administrative Annex I and miscellaneous repairs to the Pontiac
Service Center parking lots and roads were completed in the fall.
Also a number of miscellaneous projects were approved for construction, but have not been
completed. They are; Handicap Ramp for the Court House Auditorium; replacement of the Underground
Steam Utility Service for Building 2; Hospital Exterior Restoration, miscellaneous interior repairs
and the replacement of the emergency standby electrical generator and the heating renovation at the
Oakland Social Service Building.
A number of projects were reviewed during the year and rejected for not being financially
feasible. There were: a standby emergency generator for Data Processing, dredging of the pond north

of the Mental Retardation Center, Groveland Office Building renovation and Oakland Social Service
Building site work.
Your Committee continues to see a large task ahead to provide governmental facilities for
our growing county. Surplus space in the existing buildings is being occupied as rapidly as it becomes
available.
This year has been a busy year, but your Committee expects the years ahead to be even busier
in order to provide an adequate physical plant in which to carry out county services.

report be received and placed on file.

Mr. Patrick M. Nowak
Oakland County Commissioner
Commissioners' Auditorium
1200 North Telegraph Road
Pontiac, Michigan 48053
Dear Mr. Nowak:
You have requested my opinion as to whether a public hearing must be held prior to the
County creating new departments pursuant to the provisions of Act 139 of the Public Acts of 1973, as
amended.
I have reviewed the provisions of Act 139 and can find no requirements that prior to creating
new departments a public hearing must be held. In reaching this conclusion, I am not unaware of the
language found in Section 14(a) of said Act 139 which says that the County Board of Commissioners may:
"Consolidate departments completely or in part or may transfer a function from 1 department
to another upon the affirmative recommendation of the county manager or elected county executive and
following a public hearing."
A reading of Section 14(a) indicates that two or more departments are in existence because
Section 14(a) refers to the consolidation of departments in whole or in part or the transferring of a
function from one department to another. Obviously, if a new department is to be created or in the
instance of the County Executive's Organizational Structure (six new departments), Section 14(a) does
not apply. Section 14(b) provides that the Board of Commissioners may create additional departments
and makes no mention of a public hearing. Section 13 of said Act 139, likewise, discusses the creation
of departments and again makes no mention of nor requires a public hearing.
Very truly yours,
Robert P. Allen

To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen:
The purpose of this Equal Employment Opportunity Affirmative Action Program resolution is
to commit the County of Oakland, as an employer, to the eventual goal of having the number of women
and minorities in its employ in each classification and department, at least equal to their representat-
ion in the available work force in the County.
As spelled out in Section I of the Oakland County Merit System Resolution, approved by the
Voters of Oakland County, November 8, 1966, "The selection, pay, advancement and treatment of County
employees shalt be based solely on Merit without reference to their political affiliation, religious
belief, racial origin or sex."
This resolution, in keeping with the guidelines of the Federal Equal Employment Opportunity
Commission and current statutes and Court decisions, directs and binds all County officials, department
heads and employees, and especially those involved in the recruitment, selection, appointment, training,
supervision and advancement of employees, to positively and affirmatively carry out these personnel
related actions in such manner as to bring about the above mentioned goal as quickly and as completely
as possible.
The Affirmative Action Program shall include but not be limited to.
1. A quarterly prepared and publicly available inventory of the utilization of women and
minorities in each classification and each department of County Government.
2. A continuing and publicly available record, categorized by sex and race, of all applicants
recruited and processed through the County's selection and appointment steps including the number
succeeding and failing at each step and showing the reasons for such failure or lack of appointment.
3. A continuing and publicly available record, categorized by sex and race, of all employees
promoted, transferred, demoted, disciplined and terminated.
4. A continuing program of advertising all County recruitment activities and examinations
in news media with a likely audience which will include women and minorities and the distribution of
such information and material to female and minority organizations in the County.
5. A continuing review of minimum qualifications required in class specifications and
examination announcements to insure their necessity, reasonableness and practicality and that they
are job related an& not aritificial barriers to the employment of women or minorities.
6. A continuing program of reviewing and validating the job relatedness and cultural fairness
of examination content, methodology and administration.
7. A continuing program of training present employees for future upgrading and of job
development to increase employment opportunities for the disadvantaged.
8. A continuing program of evaluating and modifying managerial, supervisory, and employee
attitudes toward the increased utilization of women and minorities in all aspects of County employment,

2, Departments and Institutions:

and Allocation of Miscellaneous Non-Tax Revenues $1,397,739. The Building Authority Payments include
present payments on the Law Enforcement Complex, the East Wing of the Administrative Complex and the
projected Building Authority Payments for the new Oakland County Hospital.
It should be noted that the statutory 1/10 mill appropriation has been dropped and that
the total for the 1975 program is decreased $850,000 from the 1974 Budget appropriation, or $116,000
less than projected under the 1974-78 five year Capital Program Plan. Your Committees are presently
working on a revised 5 year Building Program based on this reduction of resources.
ADDITIONAL RECOMMENDATIONS
In light of the prevailing economic conditions facing us for 1975, your Committee recommends
the following budgetary surveillances in connection with the appropriations herein recommended:
I. The Finance Committee review monthly the following functions: Capital Outlay, Sundry
Expenses and Conventions and Conferences.
2. That the Finance Committee, together with the appropriate Larson Committees, review
monthly the following activities: Comprehensive Health, Human Services and Social Services (General
Relief and Hospitalization).
3. That the full Board approve prior to payment, all dues to outside agencies including the
Council of Governments.
Your Finance Committee believes the projections herein are realistic and the expenditures
recommended provide as equitable and efficient distribution of revenues as possible within the limits
of available funds.
Mr. Chairman, on behalf of the Finance Committee, I move the adoption of the above report
and approval of the 1975 Budget as submitted.

(Recommended for approval by the Board of Commissioners, December 19, 1974) is to pay the retirement
contributions, previously paid by non-bargaining unit employees, with County funds.
This is a program now applied to State of Michigan employees and the cost for the above-
mentioned employees is approximately $700,500.
NEW POSITIONS - BUDGETED
The new budgeted positions requested by the County's Departments totaled 199 at a cost of
$2,072,933 based on 1974 salary rates. This recommendation is for eighteen new budgeted positions at
a cost of $205,944 at 1974 rates and $207,618 with 1975 rates applied to the non-bargaining unit
positions. Of the eighteen positions, three are half-time positions and three are full-time Public
Health Nursing positions budgeted for only the last half of 1975 because of the graduation of suit-
able candidates at that time. Also included are positions for two new District Court Judges and one
new Probate Judge. One District Court staff position and two Probate Court staff positions are in-
cluded to staff the new Judgeships. Four budgeted positions are included for the Prosecutor, to cope
with increased judgeships and changes in the Mental Health Act which greatly increases the need for
Assistant Prosecutors in Mental Health cases. The Court Reporter III recommended for Circuit Court
will be a reserve and replacement reoorter to fill in for vacancies of the one reporter assigned to
each Circuit Court Judge and to assist in heavy caseloads. Court Reporting services are now employed
on a fee basis to cope with such problems and it is expected that the extra reporter will reduce such
fees more than the cost of the position and provide additional flexibility not possible with a fee type
relationship. Approximately 80/.. of the salary of the Clerk II position for the Hospital is billed to
non-County sources.
NEW POSITIONS - C.E.T.A.
December 5, 1974, the Board of Commissioners approved 38 new positions to be employed under
Title II of the Comprehensive Employment and Training Act of 1973. Under this program, the first
$10,000 of annual salary plus the cost of fringe benefits on a $10,000 salary are paid by C.E.T.A.
grant funds. The aim of this part of the program is to create employment for the unemployed and
especially certain target groups who are having problems getting employment. The employer has an
obligation to see that at least 50, of those going through his C.E.T.A. positions end up with permanent
employment, although not necessarily with the C.E.T.A. employer. The program is anticipated to be a
three-year program.
Based on the County's experience with the previous Public Employment Act program, the County
has selected thirty-eight positions which combine the attributes of being high priority choices for
permanent positions by the County's departments and being practical for filling by C.E.T.A. eligible
applicants who must be unemployed or "under-employed" for thirty days at the time of application and
at the time of appointment.
Most of the 38 positions in the County's C.E.T.A. program are beginning level positions.
Fourteen are clerical, three are maintenance type, eleven are law enforcement jobs, four are trainee
level professional jobs and six are miscellaneous. Seven of the jobs have salaries exceeding the
$10,000 C.E.T.A. ceiling for a total County budgeted cost at the proposed 1975 rates of $13,579.
EMERGENCY SALARIES
"Emergency Salaries" are amounts granted to certain departments based on previous experience
and/or in anticipation of unusual workloads and staffing problems in the coming budget year. Such
funds are used by departments to cope with fluctuating caseloads to cover vacation and sick leave
absences and to cover repetitive seasonal or special projects. The use of short term temporary em-
ployees paid from "Emergency Salaries" is considerably less expensive than full-time staffing with a
larger number of permanent employees to meet peak loads. "Emergency Salaries" allows departments to
maintain a roster of "on call" employees available to cope with emergencies. Permission must be
obtained from the County Adninistration through Personnel, before such funds can be used.

TOTALS
OVERTIME RESERVE
The creation of the Overtime Reserve, within the Salaries Reserve Fund, allows funds to be
budgeted for the payment of overtime without committing the funds to particular departments. Overtime
is used only when the work and the time of doing it are assigned by the department head and only
employees In certain categories are eligible for overtime pay. The County's computer maintains a
running account of the overtime used, detailing it by department and employee. $540,129 was spent for
this purpose in 1972, $776,878 was spent during 1973 and $903,256 was spend during the first 11 months
of 1974. Also charged to this fund is the cost of Premium Pay for Legal Holidays worked and pay for
off-duty County Appearance by Law Enforcement employees.
SUMMER EMPLOYMENT
Oakland County has traditionally hired college and high school students to perform a variety
of routine jobs during the summer months. Summer employees help to fill an employment gap created by
annual leaves, usually taken during the summer by regular, full-time employees. The summer employment
program lends itself well to seasonal work performed in the maintenance of County grounds, the operation
of County parks and repetitive tasks accumulated throughout the year by the various County departments.
Currently the County pays $2.00 per hour for the first year and S2.25 per hour for the second year for
Summer Clerical help. Summer Grounds help receives $2.25 per hour for the first year and $2.50 per
hour for the second year. Placing these funds for Summer Employment in the Salaries Reserve Fund
allows the Personnel Practices Committee to oversee summer employment distribution.
TRAINING AND TUITION REIMBURSEMENT
Placing this allocation in the Salaries Reserve Fund allows County Administration to co-
ordinate, and the Personnel Practices Committee to oversee, training activities, which have become
more important as the County seeks to upgrade present employees instead of fighting in the competitive
market for the hard-to-get specialists and technicians. The major expenditures from this fund are to
finance the County's Tuition Reimbursement Program under which tuition is reimbursed to an employee
after he has successfully completed a course which was approved by both his department head and
Administration through its Personnel Division. The increase from 540,000 to $60,000 reflects the
effects of inflation of the cost of education,
CLASSIFICATION AND RATE CHANGES DURING BUDGET YEAR
Because the County is a very complex institution which is constantly changing its scope,
the duties of many positions change during each budget year. With over 2,800 positions, it is not
possible to study and report all such changes in time to be reflected in the County's Annual Budget,
many changes in classification and some rate adjustments must be made during the Budget year. The
creation of new classifications and new salary rates can only be done by the Board of Commissioners
and these funds can be used only with the approval of the Board.
CHILDREN'S VILLAGE STUDENT EMPLOYMENT
For several years, the County has employed students from the Children's Village in a number
of County Departments. The numberof students available varies with the Village's caseload and the
departments involved vary with the type of students available and the County's workload. In 1974,
$5,000 was allotted for this purpose but had to be augmented before the year was over. This program
has the double benefits of providing on-the-job training, work experiences and often exposure to a
different lifestyle for the students and assists the County in coping with certain workloads.
