pending review by the Proposal Review Committee; and
WHEREAS the amount allocated for this program is $163,747 on an annual

IN RE: CORPORATION COUNSEL/RISK MANAGEMENT - RECOMMENDATION TO MODIFY
INSURANCE BID POLICY
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS Risk Management has recommended changing to a limited bid
procedure through the use of an agent qualifications procedure, necessitated by
the reduced number of participating agencies, insurance companies using an
unlimited bid basis, and the need for qualified agents; and
WHEREAS Oakland County is interested in selecting qualified agents to
market its insurance program requirements and to broaden our protection and
test the competitiveness of policies; and
WHEREAS the need exists for a controlled approach to insurance markets to
obtain complex and/or technical coverage such as Environmental Impairment
insurance, and the ability to negotiate with insurance companies as to price
and coverage for the best program, and request additional services from agents
without extra costs; and
WHEREAS the need exists to approach direct writer insurance companies
without paying commissions; and
WHEREAS a Review Committee, comprising of a member from the Deputy County
Executive, Corporation Counsel or designee, Chairman of the Board of
Commissioners or designee, Chairman of the Finance Committee or designee, and
the Risk Manager, has been established to evaluate the selection process for
the insurance program; and
WHEREAS the methodology for this selection would include invitations to
insurance agencies on the bid list and other major governmental insurance
agencies for review, followed by the Review Committee making arrangements for
interviews, and eventually selecting three agencies and two alternates.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the approval of the agents selected be made
by the Finance Committee, after receiving the report of the Review Committee.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of
Commissioners adopts the actual revisions to the insurance bid policy.

PROGRAM ENHANCEMENT AND GRANT ACCEPTANCE
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Chairperson, Ladies, and Gentlemen:
Pursuant to Rule XI-G, the Finance Committee has reviewed Miscellaneous
Resolution #94311 and finds:
1) The current staff assigned to recipient rights is one position
classified as a Residential Development Coordinator/Recipient
Rights Officer, salary grade 11. It is estimated by CMH
Administration that this position currently devotes 80% of the time
to recipient rights issues and 20% of the time to residential
coordination.
2) The requested program enhancement includes the reclassification and
upgrade of the Residential Development Coordinator to a Recipient
Rights Supervisor, salary grade 14. Also, two additional full-time
eligible positions are requested: one Recipient Rights Advisor,
salary grade 10, and one Typist I, salary grade 3.
3) The cost of the 20% residential coordination effort is requested to
be reallocated to contractual services, with the remaining 80% of
the position to be applied against the enhancement costs.
4) For fiscal year 1994/95, total additional salaries and fringe
benefits allocation required is $91,999; total additional operating
expense required is $9,638 for a total of $101,637 additional funds
required.
5) The Michigan Department of Mental Health has committed an
additional $12,000 in State funds for enhanced recipient rights
services, which requires an additional $1,333 of County match for
total new funding of $13,333. The balance of $88,304 has been
redirected within the existing Community Mental Health funding,
which will be incorporated in a comprehensive budget amendment upon
receipt of the State Authorization for Fiscal Year 1994/95.
