FINANCE COMMITTEE MISCELLANEOUS RESOLUTION #94091 BY: Commissioners Shelley Taub, Charles Palmer, Marilynn Gosling, Hubert Price IN RE: COMMUNITY MENTAL HEALTH - AUTHORIZATION TO CARRY FORWARD 93/94 LAPSED FUNDS TO the Oakland County Board of Commissioners Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen: WHEREAS since June 1993 the Oakland County Community Mental Health Services Board (CMH), under authorization of the Oakland County Board of Commissioners, is a full management board under contract with the Michigan Department of Mental Health (MDMH); and WHEREAS full management allows CMH a unique opportunity to thoroughly review and redesign current programs as well as develop new programs to meet the mental health needs of Oakland County residents; and WHEREAS in order to facilitate the planning process, Oakland County Commissioners Minutes Continued. April 28, 1994 240 established a Transition Planning Team process which formed committees made up of CMH and County staff, consumers, family members, private and private providers, and other stakeholders, in the design of programs for specific population groups; and WHEREAS in order to carefully plan for community needs and receive input from all interested parties, the planning process will take until the summer of 1994 to complete; and WHEREAS on March 9, 1994, MDMH sent Oakland CMH the State Fiscal Year (FY) 1993/1994 Authorization which, due to decreased use of state facilities, included a minimum of $2.4 million in funds that could be used for program expansion based on the plans now under development; and WHEREAS the length of the planning process will not allow CMH to spend all of these funds, by the end of the fiscal year, and as a result they will be lapsed back to MDMH at the end of State FY 93/94; and WHEREAS the lapsing of these funds would deprive Oakland County residents of resources to meet the overwhelming demand for mental health services, as witnessed by the extensive waiting lists for residential placements for citizens who are developmentally disabled and other services; and WHEREAS these funds could be used to support start-up efforts for the programs developed through the planning process; and WHEREAS should these unspent FY 93/94 funds be carried forward into FY 94/95, they could be used to fund start-up costs for the community-designed programs while allowing the base FY 94/95 MDMH authorization for Oakland County to cover regular operating costs; and WHEREAS carry-forward of funds is a common practice when establishing new programs, as reflected in the budgeting of federal grants through MDMH; MDMH has in fact proposed Mental Health Code changes that would authorize carry- forward of unspent funds. NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Community Mental Health Services Board be authorized to carry-forward unspent FY 93/94 funds into FY 94/95, to cover start-up cost and community demand needs, with the understanding that all carried forward unspent FY 93/94 funds unencumbered September 30, 1995 be lapsed back to the Department of Mental Health.

Palmer, Chairperson IN RE: FORCED SITINGS OF DISPOSAL CAPACITY To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen: The Planning and Building Committee, having reviewed the above-referenced Commissioners Minutes Continued. April 28, 1994 258 resolution, reports with the recommendation that it be adopted with an amendment deleting the last BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED paragraph and substituting the following new paragraph: "BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners urges Governor John Engler and the Legislature to place an immediate moratorium on implementing the 1981 Administrative Rules until the legislature deals with the issues set forth in this resolution." Chairperson, on behalf of the Planning and Building Committee, I move acceptance of the foregoing Report. PLANNING AND BUILDING COMMITTEE MISCELLANEOUS RESOLUTION #94086 BY: Larry Crake, Commissioner, District 4; Sue Douglas, Commissioner, District 8; Donna Huntoon, Commissioner, District 2; Ruth Johnson, Commissioner, District 1; Jeff Kingzett, Commissioner, District 7; Lawrence Obrecht, Commissioner, District 3; Dennis Powers, Commissioner, District 10 IN RE: FORCED SITINGS OF DISPOSAL CAPACITY To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen: WHEREAS on June 1, 1992, the U.S. Supreme Court rendered a decision that allows out-of-state and out-of-country wastes to flow freely into Southeastern Michigan; and WHEREAS on March 4, 1993, the Oakland County Board of Commissioners adopted a resolution (MR 93001) which: 1. Urged Congress to adopt laws allowing counties to effectively regulate the flows of out-of-state and out-of-country wastes so that they may properly plan for the disposal of their own wastes without that capacity being usurped by uninvited wastes; and 2. Urged the State of Michigan, absent any such timely national legislation, to suspend the forced siting of new landfills beyond that necessary for the local waste stream over the short-term (3 to 5 years); and WHEREAS on October 7, 1993, the Oakland County Board of Commissioners adopted a resolution (MR 93170) which: 3. Urged the State of Michigan to reduce the Act 641 planning period from 20 years to 10 years (in part to reduce the amount of disposal capacity originally required and to reduce the threshold at which capacity must be replenished); and WHEREAS little progress has been made on this entire issue (both from a national and state perspective) and Oakland County is currently faced with the potential mandate of additional disposal capacity (by a state agency which refuses to change its interpretations of 1981 administrative rules in spite of a dramatically altered solid waste scene), which will only add additional capacity which is not required for the short-term needs (3 to 5 years) of the County's solid waste generators and which excess will become an additional competitor for the region's limited waste stream, thereby attracting even more out-of-state and out-of-country wastes as the operators of the numerous landfills seek to maximize their operation levels. NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners reaffirms the problems previously identified, the urgency for corrective actions required at both a national and state level, and the solutions presented, as expressed in Miscellaneous Resolutions 93001 and 93170; and BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that Michigan's legislators be urged to adopt additional changes to Act 641 so that forced sitings of additional disposal capacity do not occur, unless a county cannot demonstrate that it has access to at least 5 years of disposal capacity at in-county sites, at sites in other counties where such is permissive in the approved Act 641 plans, or at out-of- state sites; and BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that such changes should be enacted on an emergency basis, with immediate effect, and which override existing plan language, litigation, or administrative edicts which may force a county to site Commissioners Minutes Continued. April 28, 1994 259 additional disposal capacity when it has access to more than 5 years of disposal needs. BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners places an immediate moratorium on implementing the 1981 Administrative rules until the legislature deals with the issues set forth in this resolution.
