and certify available remaining disposal capacity for all Act 451 non-hazardous

194
use of the interim siting mechanism contained in the 1994 Amendments for the
siting of additional landfill capacity in the County; and
WHEREAS Act 451 as amended, concludes that failure to adopt a required

Act 451 non-hazardous waste stream generated within the county, the current
volume reduction efforts being achieved by the County's residents and businesses,

incinerators, current inter-county flow arrangements and an analysis of the
available remaining disposal capacity both within the County and within willing
nearby counties; and
WHEREAS the current analysis contained in the County Executive's report
titled "Demonstration of Available Disposal Capacity - May 6, 1996" (which is
on file with the County Clerk) shows clearly that disposal capacity is available
for the County's Act 451 non-hazardous waste stream into the year 2005 as is
summarized on the exhibit attached.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
hereby certifies that sufficient disposal capacity exists so that the interim
siting mechanism for the siting of additional landfill capacity within the County
as contained within the 1994 Amendments to the 1990 Solid Waste Management Plan
Update will not become operational until January 1, 1998 or later, such date to
be identified in a future certification.

MISCELLANEOUS RESOLUTION #96120
BY: Strategic Planning Committee, Dennis Powers, Chairperson
IN RE: DEPARTMENT OF INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY - REVISED OFFICE AUTOMATION PROCESS
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS Miscellaneous Resolution #94009 established a methodology for
approval and implementation of Office Automation Projects; and
WHEREAS the purpose of this process is to provide a vehicle for interested
County agencies to request office automation goods and services and a structure
by which requests can be documented, evaluated and implemented; and
WHEREAS the current process does not make a distinction between large and
small projects, subjecting each request to administrative and policy reviews
resulting in excessive resource consumption and implementation delays; and
Commissioners Minutes Continued. May 23, 1996
198
WHEREAS the Department of Information Technology proposes a revised office
automation procedure that would continue to subject all requests to
administrative review, including assessment of need, proposal preparation, fiscal
analysis, customer review, and prioritization, but streamline policy review by
categorizing projects and processing them in the following fashion:
- Pre-justified Projects, as defined in the attached written
procedure, would be considered as authorized. Funding will be
provided through the Biennial Budget Process, grant funding or
ADA administrative approval process.
- Non-Pre-justified Projects with a total cost less than $25,000
would be submitted as an Installation Service Request and
authorized by the Director of Information Technology. The
aggregate dollar amounts appropriated within this category will
be subject to annual approval by the Board of Commissioners as a
part of the non-departmental appropriation for Office Automation
(Account #10100-909-01-00-9920), and reported regularly as part
of the Finance and Personnel Committee=s Contingency Report.
- Non-Pre-justified Projects with a total cost $25,000 and more
will require both an Installation Service Request and Automation
Enhancement Request, subject to approval by the Director of
Information Technology and the Fiscal Services Division, as well
as the Personnel Department when appropriate. Funding from the
Board of Commissioners will be sought prior to the initiation of
these projects.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
authorizes the establishment of a revised Office Automation Process, as outlined
above and described in detail in the attached Automation Services Process
document.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the approval of this process supersedes any
other process previously in effect.
Chairperson, on behalf of the Strategic Planning Committee, I move adoption
of the foregoing resolution.

BILL) PRESERVATION OF ADMINISTRATIVE FUNDING FOR AREA AGENCIES ON AGING
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
Commissioners Minutes Continued. May 23, 1996
200
WHEREAS under Federal law, Planning and Service Areas (PSA=S) administer
the Federal Older Americans Act and are areas which are defined by a geographic
boundary for the delivery of services to older individuals, and every PSA is
served by an administrative agency, Area Agency on Aging (AAA); and
WHEREAS under the Federal Older American=s Act, Michigan=s 14 PSA=S were
increased to 16, when AAA-Region 3, which included Barry, Calhoun, St. Joseph,
Branch and Kalamazoo Counties, divided into three distinct PSA=s; and;
WHEREAS the increase in administrative costs of managing three PSA=S
instead of one will impact the funding distribution formula for every AAA in
Michigan; and
WHEREAS Sec. 758 of HB5586, states that:
(1) Funding shall not be reduced to any planning and service region due
to the establishment of the three area agencies on aging in the
region 3 area where 1 had previously existed.
(2) The total administrative funds allocated in fiscal year 1996-97 to
the new area agencies on aging, being regions 3a,3b,and 3c, shall
not exceed the total administrative dollars received by the former
region 3 unless paid for by the counties.
(3) If additional funds become available for distribution to area
agencies on aging, the 3 area agencies on aging established in
region 3 together shall not receive additional funding due to the
split, but shall receive the same share as would the former region 3
under the intrastate funding formula established by the office of
services to the aging; and
WHEREAS Oakland County=s Area Agency on Aging, Region 1-B, which serves
over 400,000 senior citizens, should not have its funding reduced by another
region=s decision to reapportion its service area.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
does hereby concur with the Sec. 758 of HB 5586, which protects the Planning and
Service Areas of the Area Agencies on Aging from negative financial impact
engendered by the expansion of the number of PSA=S within Michigan.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that copies of this resolution be forwarded to
Oakland County=s Legislators, the Governor, the Area Agency on Aging, 1-B, the
Michigan Office of Services to the Aging, the Michigan Commission on Aging, the
