FISCAL NOTE (Misc. #96233)
BY: Finance and Personnel Committee, Sue Ann Douglas, Chairperson
IN RE: COMMUNITY MENTAL HEALTH - APPROVAL OF COMMUNITY MENTAL HEALTH AGENCY NET
COST PURCHASE OF SERVICE CONTRACT WITH MACOMB OAKLAND REGIONAL CENTER, INC.(MORC)
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Chairperson, Ladies, and Gentlemen:
Pursuant to Rule XII-F of this Board, the Finance and Personnel Committee
has reviewed the above-referenced resolution and finds:
1. The resolution approves a contract between Oakland County and MORC,
Inc. The contract is for the period October 1, 1996, through
September 30, 1997, with a not-to-exceed amount of $60,909,124.
2. The contract provides residential, clinical, and day program services
for people with developmental disabilities and for people with mental
illness.
3. The contract includes a full year=s funding for the Community
Residential Services (CRS) Program which serves people with mental
illness. The Recommended 1997/1998 Biennial Budget includes the
anticipation that this program would transition to the existing
Mentally Ill Adult Quadrant Services and that the residential contracts
would be assumed directly under Community Mental Health management by
March 1, 1997. Therefore, funding does not exist within the current
Community Mental Health Budget to provide full year=s funding within
the MORC, Inc., contract. An amendment is required to the Recommended
Biennial Budget which results in a negative adjustment to the Community
Mental Health Contingency account in the amount of ($2,749,992) in
Fiscal Year 1996/1997 as a result of this program remaining with MORC,
Inc. There is no negative impact on Fiscal Year 1997/1998 in
anticipation that the clinical/outpatient component of the CRS program
will then transfer from MORC, Inc. management to the Mentally Ill Adult
Quadrant Services and that the residential contracts will be assumed
directly under Community Mental Health management.
4. Amendments are also required to reflect the revenue targets as agreed
upon by the three Community Mental Health Directors of Oakland, Macomb,
and Wayne Counties and to adjust the mix between 100% State funded
programs and 90% State/10% County funded programs as finalized in the
contract financial attachments. The result on the adjusted mix between
State and County funding results in a reduction of estimated County
match in the amount of ($786,761).
5. The Recommended 1997/1998 Biennial Budget is amended as follows:

To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS since the adoption of Miscellaneous Resolution #93092, the
Community Mental Health AFull Management@ Contract, Oakland County has been
engaged in continuous negotiation with the State of Michigan to insure that the
State met its funding commitments under this contract; and
WHEREAS in the ensuing three years of this contract, the State has imposed
its criteria for programmatic implementation and delivery of services, negating
the concept of full management by the County Community Health Board, but leaving
the County of Oakland with full liability exposure; and
WHEREAS as a precondition of the Full Management contract, the State of
Michigan had assured the County that it could acquire the Clinton Valley Hospital
(CVC) property, adjacent to the County=s campus, at a minimal cost; and
WHEREAS the State of Michigan has reneged on its agreement to nominally
transfer the CVC property to Oakland County; and

WHEREAS in the pursuit of attempting to implement the Full Management
concept, Oakland County has spent hundreds of thousands of dollars for additional
employees; and
WHEREAS by adoption of Miscellaneous Resolution #96199, the Board of
Commissioners has directed the creation of a Task Force to review the creation
of a Community Mental Health Authority as an alternate structure for the delivery
of mental health services to the citizens of Oakland County; and
WHEREAS in order to preserve to itself and its citizens the full range of
options for the provision of mental health services in Oakland County, it is
necessary for the Board of Commissioners to give notice of termination of the
full management contract.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that pursuant to the provisions of the full
management contract, the Oakland County Board of Commissioners hereby gives
notice to the Michigan Department of Community Health, under the provisions of
the Full Management Contract Part I (A) (9), that it wishes to terminate said
contract.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the County Executive be requested to review the
findings of the Task Force on the Creation of a Community Mental Health Authority
and to undertake all necessary actions to study the termination of the full
management contract at the earliest possible date, and recommend to the Board of
Commissioners on the creation of a Mental Health Authority as well as the
advisability of returning the mental health services responsibilities to the
State of Michigan.
Chairperson, we move the adoption of the foregoing resolution.

MISCELLANEOUS RESOLUTION #96236
BY: Commissioners Lawrence A. Obrecht and Thomas A. Law
IN RE: BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS - ELIMINATION OF PER DIEM
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS Oakland County has the highest caliber of public servants and
citizen volunteers of any County in the Nation, and these individuals feel
strongly that public service is a public trust; and
WHEREAS some, but not all, of the Boards, Commissions, Councils, Committees
or Authorities which advise County programs offer its members a stipend for
service; and
WHEREAS appointment to a Board, Commission, Council, Committee or Authority
which arises from a County employee=s or elected official=s position with the
County is to be encouraged, but not additionally recompensed, not because these
members do not bring valuable insight, knowledge and expertise to these other
bodies, but because the County does not wish to perpetuate any perception of
Adouble-dipping@; and
WHEREAS these full-time employees and County-elected officials are proud of
their service and contribution, and do not serve in order to collect these per
diems.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
does hereby adopt a policy which precludes all County-elected officials, County
Executive, Prosecutor, Drain Commissioner, Sheriff, Treasurer, Judges and
Commissioners, and all full-time County employees from receiving any per diem for
service on any board, Commission, Council, Committee or Authority to which they
are appointed by the Oakland County Board of Commissioners or on which they sit
by virtue of their office.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the per diems established by Miscellaneous
Resolution #96115, for the Board members of the Personnel Appeal Board, Sanitary
Code Appeal Board, and the Community Mental Health Services Board be excluded
from this policy.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Drain Commissioner be requested to
eliminate per diem payment for the Drain Board members.
Chairperson, we move the adoption of the foregoing resolution.
