within limits stated in the appropriations measure. In no case,

#21 of this resolution.
15. A deviation from the original general appropriations measure shall
not be made without first amending the general appropriations
measure through action by the Board of Commissioners, except
within those limits provided for in paragraph #16 of this
resolution.
16. Appropriations accumulated at the following three summary levels
of expenditure within each County Division will be deemed maximum
authorization to incur expenditures: Controllable Personnel
Expenses, Controllable Operating Expenses, and Non-Controllable
Operating Expenses (Internal Service Funds). The County Executive
or the Fiscal Officer shall exercise supervision and control of
all budgeted expenditures within these limits, holding
expenditures below individual line-item appropriations or allowing
overruns in individual line-items providing that at no time shall
the net expenditures exceed the total appropriation for
Controllable Personnel and Operating Expenses, respectively, for
each division as originally authorized or amended by the Board of
Commissioners. The Fiscal Officer shall submit to the Finance
Committee a quarterly listing of new governmental funded
appropriations and internal service fund line items created
administratively which were not properly classifiable. Line-item
detail, division, unit or cost center detail and allotments, which
provide a monthly calendarization of annual appropriations, as
deemed necessary by the Fiscal Officer shall be maintained and
utilized as an administrative tool for management information and
cost control. The Fiscal Officer shall not approve any
expenditure beyond that necessary to accomplish stated program or
work objectives authorized in the general appropriation measure as
originally approved unless amended, in which case the amendment

appropriation ledger accounts in which are to be recorded such
expenditure encumbrances and obligations for the future payment of
appropriated funds as the Fiscal Officer may approve.

transferred pursuant to the provisions of this resolution to the
appropriate general appropriation account and the expenditure then
charged thereto.
19. No obligation shall be incurred against, and no payment shall be
made from, any appropriation account unless there is a sufficient
unencumbered balance in the appropriation and sufficient funds are
or will be available to meet the obligation. All capital
projects funded from the Capital Improvement Fund shall require
approval of the Board of Commissioners on recommendation of the
appropriate liaison committee (Planning and Building Committee)
prior to initiation of the project. Any obligation incurred or
payment authorized in violation of this resolution shall be void
and any payment so made illegal except those otherwise ordered by
court judgment or decree.
20. The Fiscal Officer, after the end of each quarter, shall transmit
to the Board of Commissioners a report depicting the financial
condition of budgeted operations, including, but not limited to:
(a) A forecast of actual revenues by major source compared with
budgeted revenues accompanied by an explanation of any
significant variances,
(b) A forecast of actual expenditures and encumbrances by
department compared with authorized appropriations
accompanied by an explanation of any significant variances,
and
(c) A forecast of actual expenditures, encumbrances and
transfers from each of the several non-departmental
appropriations accounts compared with authorized
appropriations accompanied by an explanation of any
significant variances.
21. Direct expenditure and/or transfers of any unencumbered balance or
any portion thereof in any appropriation for transfer account to
any other appropriations account may not be made without amendment
of the general appropriation measure as provided for in this
resolution, except that transfers within and between budgeted
funds and departments may be made by the Fiscal Officer in the
following instances:
(a) Transfers may be made from the non-departmental overtime
account and fringe benefit adjustment account to the
appropriate departmental budget as specific overtime
requests are reviewed and approved by the Budget Division.
Additionally, overtime appropriations may be transferred
between divisions within a department at the request of the
Department Head, if authorized by the Fiscal Officer or his
designee.
(b) Transfers may be made from the non-departmental
appropriation accounts for Maintenance Department Charges
and Miscellaneous Capital Outlay to the appropriate
departmental budget as specific requests for these items are
reviewed and approved by the Fiscal Officer.
(c) Transfers may be made from the non-departmental
appropriation accounts Emergency Salaries and Summer Help as
specific requests for these items are reviewed and approved
by the Personnel Department.
(d) Fringe benefit rates shall be established annually in the
budget process to charge all Governmental, Special Revenue
and Proprietary funds for actual employer fringe benefit
costs. Such rates shall be sufficient to meet all fringe
benefit costs including sick leave and annual leave
accumulations, tuition reimbursement, retirees'
hospitalization and retirement administration. All funds
collected for Retirement, Tuition Reimbursement, Social
Security (FICA), Hospitalization for active and retired
employees, Disability, Dental, Optical, and Life and
Accident Insurance shall be transferred to the Employee
Fringe Benefit Fund as established by Miscellaneous
Resolution #81-312. Sufficient funds shall be maintained in
the Employee Fringe Benefit Fund liability account for sick
leave and annual leave to cover the accumulated liability at
an amount equal to 50% of the sick leave accumulation and
100% of the annual leave accumulation, including applicable
Social Security (FICA) taxes thereon. All funds collected
by Workers' Compensation and Unemployment
Compensation shall be transferred to their respective self
insurance funds as established by Miscellaneous
Resolution #81012.
(e) An amount for capital improvements and rental charges for
principal payments on Building Authority bonds shall be
added to the Building Space Cost Allocation charges. Funds
collected as a result of these charges shall be accumulated
in the Facilities Maintenance and Operations Fund for
subsequent transfer to the Capital Improvement Fund and
Building Authority Fund. The transfer of these funds to the
Capital Improvement Fund and Building Authority Fund shall
not be made prior to December 31, without approval from the
Finance Committee of the Board of Commissioners.
(f) Transfers may be made from the non-departmental accounts for
Computer Services or from any other source of funds, for
computer hardware and/or software only with prior approval
by the Finance Committee. Each proposal for the transfer of
funds must be supported in writing with cost justification,
estimates of potential savings and/or cost avoidance, and an
itemization of the requested hardware and software. The
Director of Computer Services shall present such proposals
as required to the Finance Committee as they are developed.
The Fiscal Officer shall report such amendments to the
Finance Committee as a formal part of the County Executive's
Quarterly Financial Forecast.
22. The Board of Commissioners may make supplemental appropriations by
amending this general appropriations measure as provided by this
resolution, provided that revenues in excess of those anticipated
in the original general appropriations measure become available
due to:
(a) An unobligated surplus from prior years becoming available;
(b) Current year revenue exceeding original estimate in amounts
sufficient enough to finance increased appropriations.
The Board of Commissioners may make a supplemental appropriation
by increasing the dollar amount of an appropriation item in the
original general appropriations measure or by adding additional
items. At the same time the estimated amount from the source of
revenue to which the increase in revenue may be attributed shall
be increased, or other source and amount added in a sum sufficient
to equal the supplemental expenditure amount. In no case may such
appropriations cause total estimated expenditures, including an
accrued deficit, to exceed total estimated revenues, including an
unappropriated surplus.
23. Whenever it appears to the County Executive or the Board of
Commissioners that actual and probable revenues in any fund will
be less than the estimated revenues upon which appropriations from
such fund were based, the County Executive shall present to the
Board of Commissioners recommendations which, if adopted, will
prevent expenditures from exceeding available revenues for the
current fiscal year. Such recommendations shall include proposals
for reducing appropriations, increasing revenues, or both. After
receiving the recommendations of the County Executive for bringing
appropriations into balance with estimated revenues, the Board of
Commissioners shall amend the general appropriations measure to
reduce appropriations or shall approve such measures necessary to
provide revenues sufficient to equal appropriations, or both.
24. All appropriations are annual and the unexpended portion shall
lapse at year end. Encumbrances and Appropriations Carried
Forward will be recorded as a reservation of fund balance and the
subsequent year's budget amended to provide authority to complete
these transactions. Appropriations shall not be carried forward
for more than six (6) months into the budget year following the
year in which they were originally appropriated. A status report
on Appropriations Carried Forward, as required by Miscellaneous
Resolution #93156, will be incorporated as an integral part of the
ensuing year's Second Quarter Financial Forecast for the purposes
of determining their continuation for the remainder of the year.
The recommended year-end budget amendment shall be supported with
a statement of revenues and expenditures and operating surplus or
deficit which shall contain the following data: (1) budget as
adopted; (2) budget amendments; (3) budget as adjusted; (4)
revenues and expenditures, operating surplus or deficit; (5)
accrued revenue and expenditures; (6) transfers; (7) total
revenues and expenditures and transfers, operating surplus or
deficit, including accruals and transfers; (8) encumbrances; (9)
appropriations carried forward; (10) total revenues and
appropriations utilized, operating surplus or deficit, including
encumbrances and appropriations carried forward; (11) balance of
revenues not collected, unencumbered appropriation balance,
operating surplus or deficit; (12) detail of adjustments to
designated and undesignated fund balance, detail of adjustment to
reserves and/or any other utilization of surplus; (13) final
surplus or deficit or undesignated fund balance carried forward to
the subsequent year's budget.
25. A member of the Board of Commissioners, the County Executive, any
elected officer, the Fiscal Officer, any other administrative
officer or employee of Oakland County shall not: (1) create a
debt, incur a financial obligation on behalf of the County against
an appropriation account in excess of the amount authorized, (2)
apply or divert money of the County for purposes inconsistent with
those specified in this general appropriations measure as approved
and amended by the Board of Commissioners, nor (3) forgive a debt
or write off an account receivable without appropriate
authorization of the Board of Commissioners, as described in
Miscellaneous Resolution #93135. Specifically, application of the
foregoing Bad Debt Write Off Policy shall be invoked for all
amounts in excess of $1,000; transactions of a lesser amount shall
be considered within the administrative authority of the Chief
Fiscal Officer. Furthermore, the Accounting Division must submit
to the Board of Commissioners, as part of the quarterly financial
report, a listing of all bad debt write offs occurring during the
preceding three months. In addition, transactions relating to
Inmate Prisoner Billings which are billed in excess of ability to
pay, as determined by the Reimbursement Division, are hereby
authorized to be adjusted in accordance with Public Act 212 of
1994 with the resultant amount of the write-off subsequently
reported to the Board of Commissioners as part of the Quarterly
Financial Report.
Except as otherwise stated in the General Appropriations Act,
funds shall not be expended without specific appropriation or
other appropriate action by the Board of Commissioners from
reserved, designated or undesignated fund equity; from balance
sheet accounts for the purchase of fixed assets not cited in
paragraph 26 of the General Appropriations Act, nonroutine prepaid
items or nonroutine obligations related to a specific
appropriation; or from funds not budgeted.
26. In connection with the 1994 General Appropriations Act, the
Computer Services Fund operating budget shall be adjusted for
depreciation and anticipated capital outlay such that the
operating budget is converted from the full accrual basis of
accounting to the modified accrual basis of accounting. The
funding for the capital outlay shall be referenced in the
operating budget. In connection with the Fiscal Officer's
Quarterly Financial Forecast Report, capital outlay and related
funding shall be presented to the Finance Committee. It is the
intention of the Board of Commissioners to require a similar
capital reporting structure for other internal service funds in
the 1995 calendar year budget process.
27. The budgetary system shall be maintained on the same basis of
accounting (generally accepted accounting principles) as the
actual financial information is maintained.
28. Any violation of the general appropriations measure by the County
Executive, the Fiscal Officer, any administrative officer,
employee or member of the Board of Commissioners detected through
application of generally accepted accounting procedures utilized
by Oakland County or disclosed in an audit of the financial
records and accounts of the County shall be filed with the State
Treasurer and reported by the State Treasurer to the Attorney
General. Pursuant to Public Act 621 of 1978, the Uniform
Budgeting Act, the Attorney General shall review the report and
initiate appropriate action against the person or persons in
violation. For use and benefit of the County of Oakland, the
Attorney General or Prosecuting Attorney may institute a civil
and/or criminal action in a court of competent jurisdiction for
the recovery of County funds disclosed by an examination to have
been illegally expended or collected as a result of malfeasance,
and for the recovery of public property disclosed to have been
converted or misappropriated.
29. The provisions of this act shall be applied to the General Fund
and all Special Revenue and Proprietary Funds of the County,
including Enterprise Funds and Internal Service Funds.
Chairperson, on behalf of the Finance Committee, I move the adoption of
the foregoing resolution which embodies the 1995 General Appropriations Act as
detailed in the 1995 Budget document, including subsequent amendments.

AGREEMENT
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS the United States Department of Agriculture, through the Michigan
Department of Education, distributes surplus food to charitable organizations;
and
WHEREAS the Oakland County Sheriff Department qualifies as a charitable
organization under the guidelines as is eligible to receive surplus food; and
WHEREAS receipt of this surplus food reduces County cost for Sheriff
Department operations by decreasing the use of General Fund dollars to purchase
food supplies; and
WHEREAS the agreement has been reviewed through the County Executive's

AGREEMENT
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
Pursuant to Rule XI-G of this Board, the Finance Committee has reviewed
Miscellaneous Resolution #94328 and finds:
1. The Oakland County Sheriff Department is qualified as a charitable
institution, by the United States Department of Agriculture and the
Michigan Department of Education, to receive surplus food.
2. Value of the food received through this agreement in 1993 was
$84,000. The receipt of this food is a direct offset to the cost
of prisoner care experienced by the County.
3. While the actual food is free of charge, the Sheriff Department
must cover the cost of food transportation. The annual estimated
cost of $18,000 is included in the Sheriff's budget.
4. Since revenues will match expenses for the food received, no
amendments are recommended to the 1994 Budget. Amendments to the
1995 Budget will be recommended once the 1994 amounts have been
calculated.

To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS Community Mental Health has received funds from the Michigan
Department of Mental Health through Medicaid's Home and Community-Based
Services (HACB) Program to provide services to individuals with developmental
disabilities; and
WHEREAS these funds are in the form of waivers which are approved on a
case-by-case basis, and provide funding for individuals in group homes and
those living with natural families who need additional support to maintain
desired living arrangements; and
WHEREAS obtaining approval for these waivers, and providing the level of
services and assessments required through the strict demands of Medicaid
regulation is highly labor-intensive; and
WHEREAS this proposal would provide additional revenues, which can be
used to provide services for other individuals wait-listed for Community Mental
Health Services; and
WHEREAS the staffing for HACB Waiver Programs operated by other Community
Mental Health Boards have been reviewed to determine the personnel needs of
this service enhancement; and
WHEREAS this proposal involves the creation of four (4) new
classifications titled Occupational Therapist, Physical Therapist, Speech
Pathologist and Dietician and a total of sixteen (16) additional SR positions.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of
Commissioners approves the creation of the following four (4) new

IN RE: DEPARTMENT OF HUMAN SERVICES/COMMUNITY MENTAL HEALTH - NEW POSITIONS
FOR HOME AND COMMUNITY-BASED SERVICES WAIVER PROGRAM
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Chairperson, Ladies, and Gentlemen:
Pursuant to Rule XI-G, the Finance Committee has reviewed the above-
referenced resolution and finds:
1) The Department of Mental Health has awarded 104 Home and Community-
Based (HACB) Waiver slots to the Oakland County Community Mental
Health Board, which will provide approximately $1,006,265 in
additional Federal Medicaid revenue for Fiscal Year 1994/1995 and
$1,613,212 on a full-year basis.
2) An additional 14 full-time positions and 2 part-time positions are
requested to support implementation of the waivers and the ongoing
assessment requirements (attached Schedule B). As detailed in
attached Schedule A, for FY 1994/1995, the additional ongoing cost
is estimated to be $590,142 plus start-up cost of $90,665 for a
total of $680,807. The excess of revenues over expenditures of
$325,458 is recommended to be budgeted in a miscellaneous account
for FY 1994/1995 in anticipation of increased contractual service
costs not yet identified for increased services to HACB waiver
clients as well as to provide services to developmentally disabled
clients on the prioritized waiting list. As these costs are
identified, a budget amendment will be brought back to the Finance
Committee to adjust from this miscellaneous account into accounts
specified at that time.
3) The FY 1994/1995 Spending Plan will be amended with one
comprehensive budget amendment upon receipt of the State
Authorization for Fiscal Year 1994/1995.

MISCELLANEOUS RESOLUTION #94305

IN RE: BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS - REINSTATEMENT OF VOLUNTARY PRAYER IN PUBLIC
SCHOOLS
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS the United States of America was founded by men with varied
religious beliefs and ideals; and
WHEREAS the First Amendment to the United States Constitution states that
"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or
prohibiting the free exercise thereof...", which means that the government is
prohibited from establishing a state religion, however, no barriers shall be
erected against the practice of any religion; and
WHEREAS the establishment clause of the First Amendment was not drafted
to protect Americans from religion, rather, its purpose was clearly to protect
Americans from governmental mandates with respect to religion; and
WHEREAS through time, certain court decisions and interest groups have
contributed to the deterioration of our foundational religious beliefs and
ideals to the extent that voluntary prayer of any denomination has been banned
from the public school system in direct contradiction of the free exercise
clause of the First Amendment; and
WHEREAS the Oakland County Board of Commissioners strongly believes that
reinstitution of voluntary prayer in the public schools is one step in the
restoration of religious choice guaranteed by the Constitution, and will assist
in moving this nation toward those religious rights and beliefs upon which the
nation was founded.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of
Commissioners strongly urges that voluntary prayer be returned to the public
school systems of this nation and invites all cities, counties, and the State
of Michigan to join in an effort to effect the reinstatement of voluntary
prayer in public schools by uniting in a grass roots movement for that purpose.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that copies of this resolution be forwarded to all
cities, villages and townships in the County of Oakland; to all counties in the
state; and to all elected officials representing Oakland County in the Congress
and State Legislature.
Chairperson, I move the adoption of the foregoing resolution.
