IN RE: BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS - CONTRACT WITH HAVEN FOR RAPE INTERVENTION TEAM
“S.T.A.R.T.” PROGRAM
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS according to the 2003 Michigan Uniform Crime Report 409 rapes were reported in Oakland
County; and
WHEREAS sexual assault is a violent, life-changing crime that affects the psychological, physical,
emotional, and spiritual well-being of the individual; and
WHEREAS according to the U.S. Department of Justice, 61% of rapes and sexual assaults are not
reported to police; and
WHEREAS in order to counteract the low reporting rates for sexual assaults, victims must be empowered
by having a realistic hope that the law enforcement and judicial systems will work; and
WHEREAS rape kits collected by specially trained sexual assault nurse examiners (SANEs) provide more
effective evidence collection compared with non-SANE-trained nurses and physicians; and
WHEREAS SANE programs are those programs that use SANEs to offer victims of sexual assault
prompt, compassionate care and comprehensive forensic evidence collection; and
WHEREAS in 1999 a task force was convened in Oakland County, including members from HAVEN,
Oakland County's Prosecutors Office, Oakland County's Sheriff's Department, Michigan State Police-
forensic laboratory, St. Joseph Mercy Hospital-Pontiac, Providence Medical Center, William Beaumont
Hospital - Royal Oak, the Pontiac Police Department, and other interested members of the communities;
and
WHEREAS this Oakland County Sexual Assault Task Force investigated possible solutions to the quality
of care received by sexual assault victims in Oakland County. The Task Force recommended developing
a collaborative program in Oakland County that will provide comprehensive victim care services and
establish protocols for sufficient and consistent evidence collection; and
WHEREAS the task force recommended that a Safe Therapeutic Assault Response Team (“START”)
program be implemented for Oakland County residents under the auspices of HAVEN; and
WHEREAS HAVEN’S START program is the only SANE program in Oakland County; and
WHEREAS the START Program initiated in June, 2001 by HAVEN has already successfully coordinating
a program for immediate response to the legal, medical, and emotional needs of over 530 sexual assault
Commissioners Minutes Continued. September 1, 2005
366
survivors, thereby reducing the trauma of sexual assault, increasing prosecution rates, and decreasing
costs to law enforcement and hospitals; and
WHEREAS the START team is made up of forensic nurses, physician's assistants, and HAVEN
advocates. Sexual assault patients receive both emotional support by the advocate and therapeutic
medical care in a safe environment; and
WHEREAS the unique benefit is that the START program provides Forensic Examiners (FE'S) who are
specially trained registered nurses and physicians assistants who perform medical forensic examinations
of adolescent and adult victims of acute sexual assault. They also collect evidence from suspects in
police custody, work with victims and will also testify in court; and
WHEREAS HAVEN has demonstrated fiscal responsibility in the exercise of its START Program by
seeking multiple sources of funding, providing centrally-located nursing interventions at 1/3 the cost of
similar services in the emergency room setting, and reducing the total cost of prosecution by providing
expert forensic evidence collection which encourages plea bargaining by defendants; and
WHEREAS Oakland County, with the adoption of Miscellaneous Resolution #01288, previously entered
into a Professional Services Contract in Fiscal Year 2002 with HAVEN, Inc., which has now expired.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners does hereby
authorize an award of a Professional Services Contract to HAVEN, Inc., for the purpose of establishing an
effective law enforcement tool for the arrest and successful prosecution of those committing sexual
attacks, in which HAVEN is to provide an investigatory resource relating to alleged criminal sexual
conduct and to provide Oakland County residents, who are victims of sexual assault or rape with
examinations, counseling services and courtroom support through the Safe Therapeutic Assault
Response Team (START) Program.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that this contract shall be for an amount not to exceed $30,000.00 and that
this contract shall terminate on September 30, 2006, unless otherwise agreed to by the parties.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that HAVEN shall submit quarterly reports to the Oakland County Board of
Commissioner’s General Government Committee and Public Services Committee on or about
January 1, 2006, April 1, 2006, July 1, 2006, and October 1, 2006, for the preceding quarter. These
reports shall include the number of victims treated, the number of trials in which START staff testified, the
percentage of victims requesting counseling and follow-up services, anecdotal or formally-gathered

BY: Commissioners Eric Wilson, Hugh D. Crawford, Eileen T. Kowall, Helaine Zack
IN RE: BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS - CREATION OF CRIMINAL JUSTICE COORDINATING
COUNCIL
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS the Oakland County Jail Population Task Force was created to look into ways to: (a) develop
a jail population Management plan; (b) expedite the processing of criminal cases; and (c) recommend jail
population management policies; and
WHEREAS chronic jail crowding has placed a tremendous burden on Oakland County's criminal justice
system for many years. Oakland County has added close to 350 medium and minimum security level
beds since December 1996, and still has to consistently utilize out-county housing to maintain inmate
population levels to avoid implementation of a jail overcrowding emergency. In 2004, out-county inmate
population averaged 145 inmates per day; and
WHEREAS the National Institute of Corrections recommends comprehensive systemwide planning
(interagency and cross-jurisdictional) to streamline the entire local system of justice, eliminate duplication,
fill service gaps and generally improve the quality of service while controlling costs; and
WHEREAS the consultants from the National Institute of Corrections (NIC) recommended that Oakland
County "develop a collaborative approach with accompanying organization mechanisms to increase
communication, cooperation and coordination of the entire justice system operating within Oakland
County"; and
WHEREAS the NIC consultants recommended that Oakland County establish "a Criminal Justice
Coordinating Committee (CJCC). This will provide the organizational framework and mechanism to allow
key justice system officials to do three things: 1) develop consensus (relying heavily on data) about what
is wrong with the system; 2) develop a vision of what the new, improved system should look like; and 3)
develop and implement policies, programs and operational action plans”; and
WHEREAS a Criminal Justice Coordinating Committee will provide a forum where key justice system
agency officials and other officials of general government may discuss and address justice system issues;
and
WHEREAS the advantages of a Criminal Justice Coordinating Committee include providing for a better
understanding of crime and criminal justice problems, greater cooperation among agencies and units of
local government, clearer objectives and priorities, more effective resource allocation and better quality
criminal justice programs. Taken together, these results can enhance criminal justice system
performance.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners hereby
authorizes the creation of the Oakland County Criminal Justice Coordinating Council.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED in accordance with the recommendation from the Jail Population
Management Task Force, participation on the Oakland County Criminal Justice Coordinating Council is
voluntary. Membership is intended to include all justice system stakeholders, including representatives of
the public.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED the initial members of the Oakland County Criminal Justice Coordinating
Council shall include:
Oakland County Sheriff
Oakland County Prosecuting Attorney
Oakland County Circuit Court Chief Judge
Oakland County Community Corrections Manager
Oakland County Circuit Court Probation Manager
Oakland County Executive
Oakland County Corporation Counsel
1 Representative of the Oakland County Police Chiefs
3 Members of the Oakland County Board of Commissioners

2 Representatives of the public at large, appointed by the Board of Commissioners
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that each member of the Oakland County Criminal Justice Coordinating
Council shall have voting rights and may designate one alternate who would have voting rights in their
absence.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Oakland County Criminal Justice Coordinating Council is to review
the reports of the Oakland County Jail Population Management Task Force, the National Institute of
Corrections and Oakland County staff; conduct a study of how jail space is currently being used and
make policy recommendations on the future utilization of jail space and other correctional sanctions and
options.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Oakland County Criminal Justice Coordinating Council is charged
with developing recommendations and plans to: (1) enhance the management of Oakland County's
criminal justice population, including, but not limited to, issues related to utilization of jail space; (2) foster
communication, cooperation and coordination toward developing a collaborative approach to the entire
justice system operating within Oakland County; (3) provide more effective resource allocation and (4)
improve the quality of criminal justice programs.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Oakland County Criminal Justice Coordinating Council shall submit
its reports, findings and recommendations to Oakland County's elected officials, policymakers, criminal
justice agencies and stakeholders for consideration.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Oakland County Criminal Justice Coordinating Council develop
and adopt bylaws to govern its operations, formalize processes and delineate specific powers and duties
of the Chairperson, Vice Chairperson and members.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners concurs with the
recommendations of both the Jail Population Management Task Force and National Institute of
Corrections that independent, full time staff support is critical to the success of the Oakland County
Criminal Justice Coordinating Council. It is anticipated that the CJCC will submit a request for skilled
professional staff to collect and analyze data and who has an understanding of justice system agencies
and processes.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Jail Population Management Task Force remain in effect until the
Oakland County Criminal Justice Coordinating Council is established.

System (the "Project"); and
Commissioners Minutes Continued. September 1, 2005
375
WHEREAS an estimate of the cost of the Project in the amount of $17,725,000 has been prepared and
has been approved by the Board of Commissioners of the County; and
WHEREAS this Board of Commissioners desires to proceed with the acquisition, construction and
financing of the Project and the issuance of bonds of the County, in one or more series, in an aggregate
principal amount of not to exceed $17,725,000 to defray all or part of the cost of the Project.
THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED by the Board of Commissioners of the County of Oakland, Michigan, as
follows:
1. AUTHORIZATION OF BONDS – PURPOSE. Bonds of the County aggregating the
principal sum of not to exceed Seventeen Million Seven Hundred Twenty-Five Thousand
Dollars ($17,725,000) shall be issued and sold in one or more series pursuant to the
provisions of Act 342, and other applicable statutory provisions, for the purpose of
defraying all or part of the cost of the Project.
2. BOND DETAILS. The bonds shall be designated "Oakland County Oxford Township
Water Supply System Bonds, Series _____," with the year and a letter as determined by
the County Agency to be inserted in the blank in the name of each series of bonds; shall
be issued in one or more series in such aggregate principal amounts as determined by
the County Agency; shall be dated as of the date approved by the County Agency; shall
be numbered from 1 upwards; shall be fully registered; shall be in the denomination of
$5,000 each or any integral multiple thereof not exceeding the aggregate principal
amount for each maturity at the option of the purchaser thereof; shall bear interest at a
rate or rates not exceeding 7% per annum as shall be determined by the County Agency
at the time of sale; shall be payable as to interest on such dates as shall be determined
by the County Agency; and shall be serial bonds and/or term bonds and mature in such
amounts and on such dates and in such years as shall be determined by the County
Agency; provided, however, that the final maturity of a series of bonds shall not be more
than 30 years after the date that such series of bonds is delivered to the initial purchasers
thereof.
3. PAYMENT OF PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST. The principal of and interest on the bonds
shall be payable in lawful money of the United States. Principal shall be payable upon
presentation and surrender of the bonds to the bond registrar and paying agent as they
severally mature. Interest shall be paid to the registered owner of each bond as shown
on the registration books at the close of business on the 15th day of the calendar month
preceding the month in which the interest payment is due. Interest shall be paid when
due by check or draft drawn upon and mailed by the bond registrar and paying agent to
the registered owner at the registered address.
4. BOOK-ENTRY SYSTEM. Initially, one fully-registered bond for each maturity, in the
aggregate amount of such maturity, shall be issued in the name of Cede and Co., as
nominee of The Depository Trust Company ("DTC") for the benefit of other parties (the
"Participants") in the book-entry-only transfer system of DTC. In the event the County
determines that it is in the best interest of the County not to continue the book-entry
system of transfer or that the interests of the holders of the bonds might be adversely
affected if the book-entry system of transfer is continued, the County may notify DTC and
the bond registrar and paying agent, whereupon DTC will notify the Participants of the
availability through DTC of bond certificates. In such event, the bond registrar and
paying agent shall deliver, transfer and exchange bond certificates as requested by DTC
and any Participant or "beneficial owner" in appropriate amounts in accordance with this
Resolution. DTC may determine to discontinue providing its services with respect to the
bonds at any time by giving notice to the County and the bond registrar and paying agent
and discharging its responsibilities with respect thereto under applicable law or the
County may determine that DTC is incapable of discharging its duties and may so advise
DTC. In either such event, the County shall use reasonable efforts to locate another
securities depository. Under such circumstances (if there is no successor securities
depository), the County and the bond registrar and paying agent shall be obligated to
deliver bond certificates in accordance with the procedures established by this
Resolution. In the event bond certificates are issued, the provisions of this Resolution
shall apply to, among other things, the transfer and exchange of such certificates and the

method of payment of principal of and interest on such certificates. Whenever DTC
requests the County and the bond registrar and paying agent to do so, the County and
the bond registrar and paying agent shall cooperate with DTC in taking appropriate action
after reasonable notice to make available one or more separate certificates evidencing
the bonds to any Participant having bonds certified to its DTC account or to arrange for
another securities depository to maintain custody of certificates evidencing the bonds.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Resolution to the contrary, so long as any
bond is registered in the name of Cede and Co., as nominee of DTC, all payments with
respect to the principal of, interest on and redemption premium, if any, on such bonds
and all notices with respect to the bonds shall be made and given, respectively, to DTC
as provided in the Blanket Issuer Letter of Representations relating to the bonds. The
County Treasurer and the County Agency are each authorized to sign the Blanket Issuer
Letter of Representations on behalf of the County, in such form as the officer deems
necessary or appropriate in order to accomplish the issuance of the bonds in accordance
with law and this Resolution.
5. OPTIONAL PRIOR REDEMPTION. The bonds shall be subject to redemption prior to
maturity upon such terms and conditions as shall be determined by the County Agency.
6. BOND REGISTRAR AND PAYING AGENT. The County Treasurer shall designate, and
may enter into an agreement with, a bond registrar and paying agent for the bonds which
shall be a bank or trust company located in the State of Michigan which is qualified to act
in such capacity under the laws of the United States of America or the State of Michigan.
The County Treasurer from time to time as required may designate a similarly qualified
successor bond registrar and paying agent.
7. EXECUTION, AUTHENTICATION AND DELIVERY OF BONDS. The bonds shall be
executed in the name of the County by the facsimile signatures of the Chairperson of the
Board of Commissioners and the County Clerk and authenticated by the manual
signature of an authorized representative of the bond registrar and paying agent, and the
seal of the County (or a facsimile thereof) shall be impressed or imprinted on the bonds.
After the bonds have been executed and authenticated for delivery to the original
purchaser thereof, they shall be delivered by the County Treasurer to the purchaser upon
receipt of the purchase price. Additional bonds bearing the facsimile signatures of the
Chairperson of the Board of Commissioners and the County Clerk and upon which the
seal of the County (or a facsimile thereof) is impressed or imprinted may be delivered to
the bond registrar and paying agent for authentication and delivery in connection with the
exchange or transfer of bonds. The bond registrar and paying agent shall indicate on
each bond the date of its authentication.
8. EXCHANGE AND TRANSFER OF BONDS. Any bond, upon surrender thereof to the
bond registrar and paying agent with a written instrument of transfer satisfactory to the
bond registrar and paying agent duly executed by the registered owner or his duly
authorized attorney, at the option of the registered owner thereof, may be exchanged for
bonds of any other authorized denominations of the same aggregate principal amount
and maturity date and bearing the same rate of interest as the surrendered bond.
Each bond shall be transferable only upon the books of the County, which shall be kept
for that purpose by the bond registrar and paying agent, upon surrender of such bond
