LEASE WITH OAKLAND COUNTY COMMUNITY MENTAL HEALTH AUTHORITY FOR PREMISES
LOCATED AT 1200 NORTH TELEGRAPH, BUILDING 38E, PONTIAC, MI 48341
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
Pursuant to Rule XII-C of this Board, the Finance Committee has reviewed the above referenced
Commissioners Minutes Continued. March 28, 2002
129
resolution and finds:
1. Pursuant to Miscellaneous Resolution #01230, the lease agreement between the Community
Mental Health Authority and the County of Oakland was modified to reflect a reduction in the
area of office space occupied by the Authority in Building 38E from 58,161 square feet to
36,385 square feet, effective November 1, 2001.
2. The Oakland County Community Mental Health Authority has requested a second
modification of the lease agreement to further reduce the area occupied by the Authority in
Building 38E from 36,385 square feet to 24,663 square feet.
3. The Department of Facilities Management, with the assistance of Corporation Counsel, has
negotiated terms of this second lease modification with the Community Mental Health
Authority.
4. This second lease modification shall commence on April 1, 2002 and end January 13, 2004.
5. Terms of the second lease modification specify annual rent due to Oakland County in the
amount of $276,472, based on a charge of $11.21 per square foot for 24,663 square feet.
6. As a result of the lease modifications, total lease charges to the Community Mental Health
Authority in FY 2002 are estimated at $350,845, a $238,965 reduction from the original lease
amount of $589,810.
7. The majority of this reduction was anticipated in the FY 2002 Budget, which reallocated
$191,853 in building space charges for Building 38E, for the probable relocation of the
Sheriff’s Administration and Crime Lab to this facility.
8. An analysis of the estimated Facilities Maintenance and Operations Fund revenues by the
Fiscal Services Division, indicates sufficient revenues will be realized in FY 2002 to cover the
$47,112 difference. Revenue loss will be absorbed by Facilities Maintenance and Operations
Fund Balance and therefore, no budget amendments are required.

To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners

MISCELLANEOUS RESOLUTION #02041
BY: Finance Committee, Sue Ann Douglas, Chairperson
IN RE: DEPARTMENT OF MANAGEMENT AND BUDGET / FISCAL SERVICES - CREATION OF
ACCOUNTANT III POSITION FOR GRANTS ACCOUNTING
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS during the past eight years, Oakland County has made a concerted effort to obtain grant
funding from Federal, State, and private sources in order to expand services to its citizens without
expenditure of General Fund dollars; and
WHEREAS during this time period the County has contracted with an outside firm to expand grant
opportunities, has employed a Grant Writer to assist departments in applying for grants, and has created
a Grant Administrator position to assist with grant compliance; and
Commissioners Minutes Continued. March 28, 2002
152
WHEREAS these efforts have been successful in that Oakland County has expanded the dollar value of
grants from the 1994 amount of $11,874,980 to the FY 2001 amount of $21,379,403, an 80% increase,
three times the rate of inflation; and
WHEREAS during the same time period that grant volume increased 80%, the Grants Accounting Unit,
which is responsible for the accounting and financial reporting related to grants, experienced a 33%
reduction in staff, from six (6) full-time employees to four (4) full-time employees; and
WHEREAS of the four current positions in the Grants Accounting Unit, one Accountant III position is
dedicated full-time, and is paid from Community Development grants, and one Accountant II position is
dedicated full-time, and is paid from Workforce Development grants; and
WHEREAS this configuration leaves only one Accountant I and one Supervisor, paid from General Fund
allocations, responsible for the accounting and financial reporting of most of the remaining grants
received by the County; and
WHEREAS the aforementioned increase in workload and the increased complexity of reporting
requirements is making it impossible for the current Grant Accounting staff to maintain their required
functions resulting in untimely or inaccurate grant reporting potentially leading to disallowed cost, which
would require payback from the County General Fund, or potentially the loss of future grant opportunities;
and
WHEREAS the addition of one (1) General Fund / General Purpose funded Accountant III position would
place the County in a better position to meet all grant accounting and financial reporting requirements;
and
WHEREAS the annual cost for an Accountant III position equals $70,277, including $45,634 in salary,
$18,254 in fringe benefits, and $6,389 in operating. Cost for the balance of FY 2002 equals $27,530; and
WHEREAS due to the work of Fiscal Services staff, in conjunction with private firm Maximus, Inc., there
has been an increase in General Fund indirect cost revenue which can be used to cover the cost of an
additional Accountant III position.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Board of Commissioners authorizes the creation of one
(1) General Fund / General Purpose funded Accountant III position in the Fiscal Services Division /
Grants Accounting Unit, to be funded by revenue generated from indirect cost charges to grants.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the FY 2002 and FY 2003 Biennial Budget should be amended, as
specified below, to provide the resources to fund the additional Accountant III position:

To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:

WHEREAS according to the U.S. Department of Justice, only 1% of sexual assaults reported to law
enforcement end in conviction; and

establish a Funding Formula Workgroup to recommend a methodology and implementation plan for
distributing Local Public Health Operations (LPHO) funding; and
WHEREAS the LPHO Workgroup was formed with the understanding that no reallocation of funds would
occur unless additional dollars were available to fund all Local Health Departments (LHD) adequately;
and
WHEREAS all public health departments are currently underfunded, the Workgroup report did not
recommend an increase in funding to implement the funding formula; and
WHEREAS the Workgroup instead recommended reallocation of current funding which changes the
LPHO funding formula and negatively impacts the delivery of environmental and public health services;
and
WHEREAS the Workgroup recommends cutting funding from many county public health jurisdictions,
including Oakland County, that are already underfunded and reallocates those funds to other counties the
Workgroup considers “more underfunded”; and
WHEREAS the recommendation from the Workgroup will reduce funding to the selected LHDs, including
Oakland County, for required services, which are food services, water services, on-site sewage services,
hearing services, vision services, communicable disease services, sexually transmitted disease (STD)
services, and immunization services, and this cut in funding will be detrimental to the services currently
being provided; and
WHEREAS the Michigan Association for Local Public Health Board of Directors has voted to reject the
Workgroup’s proposed plan and recommendations; and
WHEREAS Oakland County will lose a minimum of $339,000 in funding; and
WHEREAS the State of Michigan is statutorily required by the Michigan Public Health Code to provide
50/50 cost sharing, it is not currently meeting this obligation; and
WHEREAS a further cut in the funding as recommended by the Workgroup further assures that the state
will not meet this obligation; and
WHEREAS Oakland County encourages additional financial support pursuant to state law for Michigan’s
underfunded public health network, it does not support a redistribution of the funding currently available to
local health jurisdictions.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners does hereby
oppose the funding formula as recommended by the Michigan Department of Community Health’s Local
Public Health Operations Funding Formula Workgroup.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that a copy of this resolution be sent to James Haveman, Director,
Michigan Department of Community Health; Russell J. Harding, Director, Michigan Department of
Environmental Quality; Daniel J. Wyant, Director, Michigan Department of Agriculture; Joseph Yekulis,
President, Michigan Association of Counties; and to Mark Bertler, Executive Director, Michigan
Association for Local Public Health, and all Wayne, Oakland, and Ingham Legislators.

or an odd year"; and
WHEREAS Miscellaneous Resolution #01299 authorized a special election to fill the vacancy created in
Oakland County Commissioner District 4, due to the resignation of the incumbent on October 25, 2001;
and
WHEREAS the costs associated with holding a Special Election held on February 5, 2002 was not
anticipated in the Fiscal Year 2002 budgets of the affected local governments and thereby posed an

Township, Waterford Township and the City of the Village of Clarkston; and
WHEREAS the constituents of County Commissioner District #4 were without representation for four (4)
months; and
