They
Prevail

Their

Families

Echoes

Your

is
the
thread
that
holds
us
tight,
guiding

through
Darkness
into

So
let
us
gather
Hearts
entwined
with
gratitude
and
love
forever

Let's
make
this
world
a
more
beautiful
place,

that
was
written
by
somebody
guess.
E
D
G
H
A
Thank
you,
commissioner.
Smith
Charles
I'm,
an
excellent
poem
and
recognition
of
this
Mother's
Day.
That's
I
mean
coming
up
and
a
great
way
to
start
off
our
meeting.
Next
up.
We
got
approval
of
the
minute.
So
do
we
have
a
motion
to
approve
the
minutes
moved
by
commissioner
Lube
seconded
by
commissioner
Joliet?
Any
discussion
on
the
minutes
from
the
previous
meeting
on
April
20th
see
none
all
in
favor
of
approving
the
minute
say:
aye
aye
opposed,
say,
nay,
let
the
record
reflect
that
the
minutes
are
adopted
unanimously.
A
A
I
A
Let's
print
out
the
same
thing,
so
we
are
so
incredibly
fortunate
to
have
a
number
of
tremendous
citizens
that
make
this
County
great.
The
old
outstanding,
older,
Awards,
being
a
tradition
started
last
year
by
a
number
of
people
here.
A
The
name
of
the
committee
is
the
older,
healthy,
aging
ad
hoc
committee,
which
I
mean
which
has
I
mean,
has
really
led
to
some
great
ideas,
and
so
I
would
like
to
call
up.
We've
got
four
people
that
we're
going
to
present
rewards
I
know
that
one
couple
is
not
able
to
be
with
us
this
evening,
but
I
will
still
call
up
the
commissioner
I
represent
them.
So
let
me
call
up
Commissioners
Karen
Julia
and
Kristen
Nelson.
J
In
light
of
May
being
recognized
as
National
older,
Americans
funds,
it
is
our
honor
here
this
evening
to
recognize
outstanding,
older
adults
who
go
above
and
beyond,
to
share
their
passions,
their
experiences
and
their
talents
to
enrich
the
lives
of
others.
Older
adults
are
a
valuable
resource
across
our
communities,
and
the
individuals
being
honored
here
tonight
have
demonstrated
that
any
one
of
us
can.
J
So
everyone
Aaron
is
the
most
amazing
woman.
I
have
met
in
my
journey.
So
far
over
the
past
five
and
a
half
years,
Aaron
is
a
lifetime
resident
of
Waterford,
Township
and
coordinator
for
the
Waterford
Senior
Center
and
supervisor
of
The
Encore
Adult
Day
Services,
leading
an
amazing
army
of
volunteers.
Aaron
has
had
enormous
impact
in
expanding
older,
adult
programs
and
services
that
promote
Healthy,
Lifestyles
and
social
engagement.
L
And
Aaron
goes
above
and
beyond,
creating
loving
supportive
fun
and
engaging
opportunities
for
older
adults
to
connect
in
meaningful
ways.
In
addition
to
providing
emotional,
educational
and
social
support
to
caregivers
and
I
can
say,
I
have
personally
had
the
privilege
of
working
with
Aaron
before
a
commission.
I
was
eight
years
trustee
and
spent
time
with
her
and
I
also
had
the
privilege
of
riding
along
for
a
Meals
on
Wheels
day,
and
while
it
really
opened
my
eyes
on
how
much
you
are
truly
invested
and
how
much
the
the
people
depend
on
you
so
well.
K
E
All
right,
thank
you,
Commissioners,
Joliet
and
Nelson
for
this
honor
I'm.
Very
you
know
very
humbled.
I've
been
part
of
the
Waterford
School
District
Senior
Center
programs
for
27
years,
and
you
know
so
I
aged
in
place
and
I.
Guess
that's
something
all
of
you
can
consider
as
you
age.
How
can
you
impact
impact
community?
How
can
you
make
life
better
in
your
circle?
I'm
a
Waterford
person
and
here
I,
am
and
I
suspect
I
will
be
involved
in
Senior
Services.
You
know
till
the
day,
I'm.
E
A
Thank
you.
Thank
you,
Aaron
for
your
leadership
and
all
the
contributions
you
provide
to
our
great
County
next
up,
I'm,
going
to
call
on
commissioner
Hoffman
to
present
the
next
award.
M
Good
evening
everybody,
when
this
programmer
recognition
was
first
announced,
I
called
George
Cullis,
who
was
the
supervisor
of
Holly
Township
and
the
village
manager
Jerry
Walker.
We
all
agreed
that
there's
only
one
person
in
that
area
who
qualifies
for
this
award
and
that's
Marlo
Davidson
I
have
changed
the
name
of
a
little
bit
I'm,
calling
it
the
outstanding
a
little
older
than
me.
M
Adult,
award
and
Marlo
has
been
active
in
the
community
for
over
50
years
from
being
part
of
the
committee
to
form
the
DDA
to
serving
his
the
chamber
for
12
years
and
serving
as
the
second
lady
president
for
two
years,
that
was
back
in
84
and
85.
in
2000.
She
single-handedly
worked
to
save
the
chamber
by
opening
an
office
inside
one
of
our
businesses
where
she
worked
out
a
deal
for
some
desk
space
in
2018,
the
Holly
Area
Chamber
celebrated
our
100th
anniversary,
thanks
in
part
to
Marlo.
M
She
has
also
served
on
a
Village
Council
from
2000
to
2004,
along
with
the
zba
and
the
Planning
Commission
as
part
of
the
Main
Street
Merchants
group.
She
chaired
the
streetscapes
committee.
She
helped
with
the
Cary
Nation
Festival
in
the
Holly
Historical
Society
this
year
is
the
50th
anniversary
of
the
Holly
Dickens
festival
and
Marlo
hasn't
been
involved
for
all
50
years.
M
She
currently
runs
the
Christmas
sing-along,
a
10-year
tradition,
which
she
started.
Had
her
80th
birthday,
Holly
supervisor,
George
Cullis,
planned
on
surprising
her
at
the
council
meeting
with
a
birthday
cake
that
he
had
made
Marlo
showed
up
with
a
larger
sheet
cake
to
share
with
everyone
to
celebrate
her
birthday.
That's
how
giving
this
young
lady
is.
She
is
loved
and
cherries
by
all
those
who
live
in
our
great
town.
Please
welcome
my
good
friend.
N
N
I,
followed
Barb's
footsteps
as
mayor
in
2003
and
prior
to
that
I
watched
Barb
at
Council
meetings.
So
she
is
my
mentor
and
I
am
who
I
am
today
by
watching
and
mimicking
and
mirroring
Barb's
behavior
and
her
actions
towards
other
people.
So,
whether
you
know
it
or
not,
you
have
affected
many
people
in
your
life.
It's
a
domino
effect.
You
did
the
right
thing
throughout
your
life
and
contributed
hours
and
hours
of
volunteering
to
different
groups
and
agencies.
I
do
the
same
thing.
So
it's
a
domino
effect.
N
N
Barb
is
very
active
in
our
class
and
Fourth
of
July
activities
for
many
many
many
years
over
40
years.
Our
fourth
of
July
is
our
signature
event
in
Clausen.
So
that's
your
work
made
it
that
popular
event,
she's
also
involved
and
continues
to
work
with
the
Knights
of
Columbus
and
I.
Just
want
to
thank
you
for
sharing
your
time
and
your
family
with
all
of
us
in
Classen.
So
thank
you.
Barb.
E
A
Well
now
we
all
know
how
commissioner
Lubes
learned,
how
to
run
a
Cutthroat
efficient
meeting
next
I
I
know
that
these
awardees
are
not
here,
but
I
want
to
recognize.
Commissioner
Powell
I
think
at
a
future
time
a
future
meeting.
We.
H
H
Oh,
my
honoree
I
mean
my
awardees
for
this.
The
well
I'm,
sorry,
the
individuals
that
I
want
to
honor
tonight,
the
wife
I'm
doing
a
couple:
doctors,
Bruce,
Turpin
and
Carol
Turpin
Dr
Turpin
is
a
former
dentist
in
our
city
of
Pontiac,
and
his
wife
was
a
former
School
Board
member
she's
out
of
town
and
I
wanted
to
be
able
to
honor
both
of
them
so
we'll
just
honor
them
at
our.
A
Thank
you.
We
will
do
it
at
the
next
meeting,
all
right
well,
another
round
of
applause
for
all
of
our
awardees.
A
It's
another
example
of
what
makes
this
County
great
is
the
contribution
of
I
mean
all
these
incredible
leaders
giving
of
their
time
selflessly
to
make
the
world
better
for
all
of
us.
Next
up,
we
have
a
proclamation
and
I
want
to
recognize
commissioner
Ajay
Rahman
to
present
the
the
proclamation
recognizing
aapi
month.
It's
a
bunch
come
up
here
and
I'll
hand
it
off.
C
All
right,
hi,
good
evening,
everybody,
my
name-
is
Ajay
Rahman
I'm,
one
of
the
newest
Oakland
County
Commissioners,
representing
the
14th
District,
consisting
of
Novi
Wixom,
Wall,
Lake
and
Commerce
Township
is
my
distinct,
honor
and
privilege
to
be
here
before
you
this
evening,
presenting
my
very
first
Proclamation
recognizing
the
month
of
May
as
Asian
American
and
Pacific
Islander
aapi
Heritage
Month
as
a
first
generation
Indian
American.
This
tribute
is
very
near
and
dear
to
my
heart
and
culture.
C
To
give
you
some
quick
statistics,
the
aapi
communities
consist
of
approximately
50,
distinct
ethnic
groups,
speaking
over
100
languages,
with
connections
to
Chinese,
Indian
Japanese,
Filipino,
Vietnamese,
Korean,
Hawaiian
and
other
Asian
and
Pacific
Islander
ancestries
Asian
Americans
are
the
fastest
growing
racial
and
ethnic
group
in
the
U.S,
seeing
an
explosive
growth
rate
of
about
75
percent
in
just
the
last
two
decades.
C
Asian
Americans
are
projected
to
become
the
single
largest
immigrant
group,
even
outnumbering
U.S
Hispanics
within
the
next
30
Years
here
in
the
U.S.
So
pretty
significant
statistics,
and
definitely
a
large
group.
So
with
that
I'd
like
to
call
upon
some
friends
of
mine
from
an
organization
called
Rising
voices.
So
if
you'd
please
come
up
and
join
me
here,.
C
C
Thank
you
all
right,
this
wonderful
non-profit
group
Works
towards
a
fairer
and
more
inclusive
Michigan
for
the
Asian
American
population.
These
Advocates
represent
many
in
the
aapi
circle,
who
are
often
overlooked
or
frequently
not
heard
to
ensure
that
all
Asian
Americans
have
a
voice
in
their
communities.
I
am
proud
to
know
them
work
with
them
and
support
their
efforts
wherever
and
whenever
possible,
and
today
I
wanted
to
take
the
opportunity
to
recognize
their
service
to
the
aapi
community.
C
So
with
that
we'll
go
ahead
and
start
the
proclamation,
so
I'm
just
going
to
go
ahead
and
read
this
to
you,
commissioner
Markham.
If
you
join
me,
please
I'll
get
started
here
all
right,
so
this
Proclamation
is
important
to
recognize
the
Asian
American
and
Pacific
Islander
communities
who
have
enriched
America's
history
and
are
instrumental
in
its
future
success.
C
Those
of
aapi
Heritage
from
Asia
and
the
Pacific
Islands
of
melanesia,
Micronesia
and
Polynesia
have
made
significant
contributions
to
the
American
culture
and
economy
for
more
than
a
century
and
celebrated
each
May.
The
first
Japanese
immigrants
arrived
in
the
United
States
on
May
7
1843,
and
the
Transcontinental
Railroad
was
completed
on
May
10
1869
by
a
Workforce
whose
majority
were
Chinese
immigrants
since
1977.
Q
Excuse
me,
where
is
the
aapi
population?
Is
one
of
the
nation's
fastest
growing
ethnic
populations
and
continues
to
add
an
incredible
Legacy
of
Educators
artists
activists
and
more.
It
is
estimated
that
the
API
community
members
make
up
nine
percent
of
Oakland
County's
population
and
the
number
of
eligible
aapi
voters
in
Michigan
has
grown
by
59
since
2010,
demonstrating
their
influence
on
local
politics
and
whereas
Rising
voices,
a
metro,
Detroit
non-profit,
seeks
to
organize
and
develop
the
leadership
of
Asian
American
women
and
youth.
Q
The
organization
Works
to
promote
political
engagement,
increased
resources
like
culturally
appropriate
Health,
Care
Foster
inclusivity
and
bring
recognition
to
the
unique
narratives
and
lived
experiences
of
this
marginalized
group.
Rising
voices
is
committed
to
dismantling
systems
of
Oppression
and
creating
a
space
for
healing
at
the
end
of
visual
communal
and
institutional
levels
and.
C
Now,
therefore,
David
T
Woodward,
chair
of
the
Oakland
County
Board
of
Commissioners
myself,
commissioner
Audrey
Rahman
and
the
entire
Oakland
County
Board
of
Commissioners
do
hereby
Proclaim
May
2023
as
aapi
Heritage
Month
in
Oakland
County.
We
encourage
all
to
join
us
in
celebrating
the
contributions
made
by
Asian,
Americans
and
Pacific
Islanders
to
our
community.
Thank
you.
F
F
So
this
recognition
is
especially
meaningful
as
Oakland
county
is,
has
been
a
key
focus
in
our
Outreach
and
our
canvas
work
being
the
county
with
the
largest
Asian
American
population
in
the
state
at
I
had
eight
percent,
but
they
said
nine
percent,
so
I'm
gonna
go
with
that
nine
percent
of
a
share
and
growing.
In
addition
to
our
electoral
work,
Rising
voices
builds
Community
power
through
cultural,
organizing
and
civic
education.
F
So
really
beautiful
example
of
this
is
actually
our
Asian
American
Market
event
that
just
happened
this
past
weekend
at
frame
in
Hazel
Park,
and
it
was
amazing
and
delicious.
So
if
you
missed
it,
we
hope
you
can
catch
the
next
one,
so
it
was
just
really
powerful
to
be
a
part
of
and
to
witness
the
space.
This
joyous
space
for
community
members
for
family
for
friends
to
gather
in
celebration
of
aapi
Heritage
Month.
F
Our
core
work
also
includes
advocating
for
language
access
and
for
inclusive
education,
so
that
Oakland
County
students
and
young
people
across
the
state
of
Michigan
will
be
able
to
study,
Asian,
latinx,
Arab,
African-American
and
Indigenous
history
as
a
fundamental
part
of
their
curriculum.
So
we
really
hope
the
board
and
all
your
esteemed
colleagues
will
continue
to
ensure
a
home
for
families
where
all
of
this
can
happen
and
where
everyone
feels
safe
and
welcome
to
celebrate
all
of
our
diverse
traditions
and
our
heritage.
F
So
thank
you
again
for
the
recognition
and
for
recognizing
the
need
for
visibility
for
Asian
Americans
in
the
county.
We
hope
to
see
continued
collaboration
and
continue
dialogue
between
local
government
and
our
communities
to
really
ensure
meaningful
representation
for
our
families
and
our
loved
ones.
So
thank
you.
E
A
Thank
you
very
much,
commissioner
Dr
Rahman
for
I
mean
bringing
attention
to
the
increasing
diversity.
That's
making
this
County
such
a
wonderful
place
to
live
next
up
and
I'm,
going
to
call
on
commissioner
Nelson
to

Our
next
item.
We
have
a
presentation
with
one
of
our
closest
working
Partners
here
in
Oakland
County,
that's
Oakland,
Oakland,
Community,
Health
Network.
A
To
give
an
updates
on
Christine
Burke
is
here
to
lead
that
I
mean
update
and
we
got
a
PowerPoint
presentation,
so
I
just
want
to
make
sure
staff
can
turn
on
the
appropriate
devices,
but
I
will
call
on
Christine
welcome.
Thank
you.
No
stranger
to
us.
Our
partnership
has
grown
exponentially
over
the
last
a
little
while
and
and
we're
so
proud.
I
mean
that
to
be
able
to
continue
to
support
and
expand
and
scale
up
the
work
that
ochn
continues
to
do
to
improve
and
provide
critical
services
to
our
community.
N
V
Am
I
on
now
there
you
go:
okay,
I
have
an
outdoor
voice
anyhow,
but
congratulations.
Ladies
I
was
sitting
there
thinking
no
pressure
to
come
up
here
and
present
it
this
time.
As
the
commissioner
Woodward
mentioned,
my
name
is
Christine
Burke
I'm,
chief
of
staff
at
Oakland,
Community,
Health
Network,
our
CEO
Dana
Lazenby,
asked
that
I,
please
express
her
sincere
apologies
for
not
being
with
us
tonight.
She
is
with
her
daughter
and
her
hooding
ceremony
who
is
receiving
her
doctoral
in
DC,
so
we
are
very
excited
for
her
and
she
is
a
proud
mother.
V
At
this
time,
I
am
joined
by
Kyle
Glasgow
Kyle's,
our
director
of
access
for
services
for
the
resource
and
crisis
center.
So
just
in
case
in
case
there
were
any
clinical
or
service
related
questions
which
I
would
not
be
able
to
answer
he's
going
to
help
with
that.
Before
we
move
on
to
the
presentation.
All
there
are
a
few
things
I
wanted
to
mention.
You
do
have
a
copy
of
Dana's
monthly
directors
report,
along
with
the
copy
of
the
presentation.
V
So
there
there
are
a
number
of
sets
of
data
in
the
report
that
identify
the
reasons.
People
call
the
reasons
people
come
to
us
for
help.
A
number
of
people
are
serving
commissioner
Cabello
and
I
were
talking
a
little
bit.
One
of
those
data
sets
includes
information
about
our
co-responder
program,
so
their
program
is
funded,
is
funded
by
the
Commissioners.
V
In
that
a
clinician
will
accompany
law
enforcement
to
a
crisis
situation
where
an
individual
is
experiencing
either
a
substance,
use
challenge
or
a
mental
health
Challenge,
and
the
goal
really
is
to
help
de-escalate
the
situation
and
connect
people
to
the
supports
they
need.
So
since
January
we
have
had
about
400
referrals
and
a
referral
can
have
a
lot
of
different
looks
to
it.
So
a
referral
could
be.
You
need
a
clinician,
it
could
also
mean
you
just
need
someone
to
call
and
talk.
It
could
mean
we
want
to
connect
you
with
follow-up.
It
depends.
V
V
So
all
of
the
fellows
who
are
psychiatric
medical
students
and
residents,
they
have
diverse
backgrounds
and
the
goal
is
to
be
able
to
reach
and
identify
the
unique
needs
in
some
of
our
minority
populations
that
aren't
getting
the
mental
health
care
that
they
they
need,
and
so
we're
very
excited.
This
was
a
big
honor.
V
People
across
the
country
were
applying
and
trying
to
get
the
fellows
brought
to
their
community
and
they
will
be
coming
to
Oakland
County
and
that
press
release
will
be
going
out
tomorrow,
I
believe
and
with
that
I'm
going
to
move
on
to
our
youth
and
Care
Youth
and
Family
Care
Connection
we've
talked
a
little
bit
about
the
program.
We
wanted
to
give
you
more
detailed
information.
We
are
so
excited
about
this
opportunity.
V
There's
been
a
lot
of
conversation
and
how
do
you
fill
the
gap
of
services
where
we
have
kids
and
their
families
in
emergency
department
rooms
in
a
mental
health
crisis,
and
the
hospitals
do
the
best
they
can
with
the
resources
they
have.
But
the
goal
really
is
to
ensure
that
families
get
the
care
they
need
faster
and
so
we're
partnering
with
our
with
our
hospitals
to
ensure
that
families
get
the
care
they
need
when
they
need
it
a
little
bit
overview
of
our
organization.
So
we
are
the
public
mental
health
system.
V
V
It
was
meant
to
fill
a
gap,
but
it
has
a
broader
reach
as
well
so
right
now
we
have
the
resource
and
crisis
center,
so
all
kiddos
and
adults.
Anyone
in
crisis
would
go
to
the
resource
and
crisis
center
for
support.
The
Youth
and
Family
Care
Connection
actually
has
two
features.
So
there
is
one
part
of
the
program
that
is
long-term.
There
is
one
part
that
is
open
for
anyone
to
come
in
the
community.
It
is
for
kiddo,
17
and
under
and
their
family
members.
V
In
terms
of
who
we
serve
primarily
as
the
public
Mental
Health
Service,
we
support
individuals
who
have
Medicaid
Health
Coverage.
That
being
said,
our
responsibility
on
contract
with
the
state
is
we
are
to
support
anybody
in
any
crisis
at
any
time
once
that
crisis
has
been
stabilized,
if
they
have
private
insurance,
then
we
make
that
transition
to
that
support
with
this
program,
if
it's
a
kiddo
who
has
Medicaid
Insurance
private
insurance
or
they're
uninsured,
everybody
is
welcome
to
access
these
Services
if
they
need
them
foreign.
V
So
the
way
the
program
works
on
the
community
side.
If
you
come
into
the
entrance,
a
new
family
entrance
that
has
been
created,
there
are
a
team
of
clinicians
who
do
what
we
would
call
a
mental
health
triage,
and
that
would
be
to
assess
the
situation.
Is
this
something
where
the
family
needs
immediate
care
and
our
higher
level
of
care?
And
so
then
we
would
coordinate
that.
Is
this
something
where
the
family
just
needs
temporary
support
to
do
it
de-escalate
the
situation
or
on
the
other
side
to
determine?
Do
they
need
connection
to
community-based
resources?
V
So
really
there's
a
professional
assessment
of
what
is
the
level
of
needing
care
for
that
family
at
that
time,
and
it's
it's
not
intended
to
be
physically
related
in
terms
of
if
you've
got
a
broken
arm.
You
take
your
child
to
the
hospital
for
physical
injuries,
it's
also
not
to
intended
to
replace
long-term
inpatient
care,
so
families
shouldn't
come
thinking.
Okay,
I
have
a
kid
in
crisis
and
you
know
what
we
we
need
to
keep
them
here,
because
this
is
where
they're
going
to
be
safe.
Those
assessments
are
done
by
our
professional
clinicians.
V
V
When
we
first
started
to
develop
the
program
and
I
should
say
in
the
Michigan
Department
of
Health
and
Human
Services
about
a
year
ago
started
talking
about
what
they
would
call
crisis
stabilization
units.
This
is
a
look-alike.
We
knew
there
was
a
need
in
Oakland
County,
there's
a
need
across
the
country
as
they
were
developing
the
program
we
applied
for
a
grant
to
samhsa
to
get
ahead
of
the
curb.
We
said
we
didn't
want
to
wait
till
the
program
was
developed.
We
think
we
can
build
this
plane
and
then
have
people
follow
us.
V
So
we
were
awarded
the
grant.
We
have
had
people
from
the
Department
come
in
and
look
at
the
program,
because
it
is
one
of
a
kind
in
the
state.
So
a
lot
of
what
you
will
see
now
being
developed
across
the
state
and
in
some
instances
across
the
country
will
be
modeled.
What
we've
done
here
in
Oakland
County
part
of
that
included,
releasing
an
RFP
for
our
service
provider,
who
would
be
responsible
for
administering
the
supports
to
families?
They
were
closely
with
Kyle.
V
They
were
closely
with
our
non-emergency
access
team
and
then,
of
course,
we
contract
with
common
ground
for
crisis
Services
as
well.
So
there
is
a
very
close-knit
partnership
between
our
three
entities:
new
Oakland
family
centers
was
awarded
the
project
we
already
had
a
relationship
with
them
and
that
they
have
been
providing
our
youth
mobile
crisis
services
in
in
Oakland
County
for
a
few
years
now,
and
then
we've
had
a
contract
with
them
for
about
20
years,
and
so
they
have
other
criteria,
relationships
across
the
state
and
the
number
of
children
that
they
serve.
V
So
the
crisis
care
unit
has
eight
rooms
if
a
child
comes
to
us
through
the
the
Care
Connection
program,
the
general
community-
and
it's
decided
that
this
this
family
needs
elevated
of
care.
Then
they
can
be
transitioned
to
The
Crisis
Care
Unit,
which
has
eight
beds
the
other
way
to
access
that
Service
Unit
is
through
our
Hospital
Partnerships.
So
if
a
family
has
an
ed
cause
or
Partners
call-
and
they
say-
we've
got
a
kid
on
here
with
some
elevated
needs-
there
will
be
coordination.
V
V
Years
and
years
ago
before
we
redeveloped
the
resource
and
crisis
center,
which
is
on
this
Campus
Common
Ground
provided
those
services
at
a
doctor's
hospital
in
Pontiac
I
think
we
have
I'm
looking
at
Penny
I
think
we
maybe
here
for
five
five
beds,
maybe
maybe
six
for
the
entire
County,
and
we
had
none
specifically
for
children
when
we
redesigned
the
resource
and
crisis
center.
We
had
two
for
you.
One
really
was
actually
being
used,
but
we
realized
immediately.
V
You
have
families
in
Crisis
coming
into
the
same
entrance
and
lobby
as
adults
who
may
be
experiencing
adult
level
crisis,
so
this
really
separates
that
it's
a
much
more
family-friendly
environment,
but
with
this
particular
unit
again
not
meant
to
replace
long-term
inpatient
care.
If
a
child
needs
that
level,
there's
they're
allowed
to
stay
for
three
days.
V
V
Some
of
the
things
that
are
unique
in
terms
of
our
services,
our
parent
involvement,
so
parents
are
our
Guardians-
are
required
to
stay
with
their
youth
until
the
whole
access
process
and
really
are
engaged
in
understanding.
What's
happening.
What
are
next
steps?
They
are
not
allowed
to
stay
overnight
with
their
their
children,
but
they
are
given
frequent
access,
frequent
updates-
and
some
of
that
is
care
related
right.
So
it
depends
on
on
what
the
need
of
that
child
is
and
what
they
think
is
going
to
be
best
for
that
family.
V
E
V
Have
parent
peers?
This
is
very
important.
We
know
in
all
of
our
mental
health,
supports
that
having
individuals
with
live
experiences
firsthand
is
beneficial
in
all
outcomes,
so
the
parents
who
are
involved
in
supporting
those
who
come
to
the
unit
may
have
a
child
themselves
who
has
is
living
with
an
intellectual
or
developmental
disability
or
a
mental
health
challenge.
V
So
again,
the
CCU
is
not
intended
to
replace
inpatient
hospitalization,
and
we
talk
about
that
quite
a
bit
because
in
a
crisis,
appearance-
and
sometimes
families
are
looking
for
immediate
and-
and
you
hear
what
you
hear
on
TV
or
you
know
what
you
know
and
so
that
conversation
to
them
is
this:
if
I
put
he
or
she
here,
this
is
going
to
be
a
long
term.
It's
going
to
help
them
and
we
want
them
to
understand
our
true
goals,
not
to
increase
hospitalizations
of
Youth.
V
Our
goal
is
to
de-escalate
and
support
families,
because
we
know
that
community-based
Services
provide
the
best
outcomes
for
children,
not
separating
them
from
their
family.
So
we
do
all
we
can
to
meet
the
level
of
need
in
the
community
as
frequently
as
possible
to
keep
the
family
together
and
to
keep
the
kids
safe
and
well.
V
This
is
just
a
map
of
where
and
how
people
access
it.
So,
as
I
mentioned
before
it
used
to
be,
everybody
came
in
through
that
front
door
of
the
resource
and
crisis
center.
The
Y
yfcc
entrance
is
on
the
lower
level
on
Hospital
Drive.
It
used
to
be
a
conference
area,
so
that's
the
door
now
that
everyone
can
go
through
it's
Community,
it's
a
beautiful
facility.
We
did
a
soft
launch
in
January
and
I
say
soft
launches.
We
opened
it.
We
didn't
sit
down
there
press
releases
because
we
have
no
model
to
follow.
V
So
we
needed
to
see
what
would
those
transitions
look
like
and
make
sure
that
it
was
seamless
and
smooth
as
possible
for
families
as
possible.
We
had
mdhhs
come
down
a
director,
Elizabeth
Hotel
came
down
and
walked
through
and
say:
did
we
miss
anything?
Is
there
something?
We
should
be
looking
for
to
keep
the
kids
safe
to
keep
the
family
safe
so
that
anybody
can
come
through
that
access
if
they
come
through
the
front
door,
no
one's
going
to
make
them
walk
around
where
there
is
no
wrong
door
in
our
world.
V
So
there
will
be
somebody
there
that
will
escort
the
family
to
the
to
the
yfcc.
It
is
in
that
location
and
again
that
they
will
determine.
Does
this
child
need
a
family,
need
the
higher
level
of
care,
and
should
they
be
transitioned
into
our
crisis
care
unit?
And
then
we
do
have
an
area
similar
to
what
we
have
for
adults
with
is
ambulatory.
V
There
is
an
emergency
that
too
they
have
their
own
door,
so
there's
an
emergency
door
by
ambulance
for
adults
and
there's
a
separate
emergency
door
by
for
families,
and
that
is
only
through
coordination
with
our
Hospital
Partners
we've
done
several
webinars
with
them.
We've
walked
through
the
information
to
make
sure
that
it's
clearer
and
concise
for
their
staff,
so
they
know
how
to
use
it
and
we've
had
webinars
with
law
enforcement
as
well.
So
they
understand
their
coordination
needs
to
be
with
task
list
and
it's
not
a
drop
off.
V
It
really
does
have
to
be
the
clinicians.
Determining
is
this
where
children
need
to
be
I
am
thrilled
I'm,
you
know,
and
when
you
watch
some
things
start
some
conceptualization
and
you,
like
all
of
us,
have
heard
about
families
in
a
hospital,
and
there
looks
like
you
know:
how
do
you?
How
do
you
help
get
people
out
of
the
emergency
room
and
you
build
something
from
scratch,
with
our
amazing
clinicians
and
all
of
a
sudden?
V
It's
there
and
the
doors
are
open
and
it's
beautiful
and
families
are
utilizing
that
that
service,
it
just
breeds
New
Hope
into
the
community.
So
if
you
ever
want
to
see
it
give
us
a
call,
families
are
in
there.
We
don't
bring
anyone
in
there.
We
respect
their
privacy,
but
everyone
who
has
been
through
it
so
far
has
been
really
impressed
and
again
are
looking
at
it
as
the
model
to
okay.
This
is
how
it
works.
We're
going
to
start
building
this
around
the
state.
V
I
expect
the
state
will
be
launching
yeah
two
years
so
we're
about
three
years
ahead
of
the
game,
so
very,
very
proud
of
our
clinical
team
for
their
efforts
in
this
process.
That's
all
I
have.
A
Thank
you
Christine.
If
Commissioners
have
a
couple
questions,
we
can
ask
them,
ask
them
if
Christine
or
your
team
I
just
want
to
say
Christina
I
mean
I,
think
this
I
mean
this
model.
Is
impressive.
I've
had
an
opportunity
to
see,
I
mean
some
of
it.
I
mean
already
it's
I
is
just
another
example.
How
ochs
is
on
The,
Cutting,
Edge
I,
think
when
you
I
mean
when
you
and
the
team
present
the
programs
that
are
available.
A
It's
a
reminder
for
all
of
us
to
communicate
out
to
the
world
what
is
available
and
to
I
mean
really
meet
the
individual
and
unique
needs
of
of
folks,
particularly
in
a
crisis
situation.
So
thank
you.
I,
don't
see
any
hands
from
Commissioners
have.
A
All
right,
I
think
that
will
conclude
our
presentations
for
the
evening.
We
will
move
to
I'll,
be
doing
the
presentation,
we'll
move
to
Communications
and
I
will
call
on
the
clerk
I
believe
we
have
a
couple
Communications.
B

David
T
Woodward.
Chair
Oakland,
County
Board
of
Commissioners.
A
Thank
you
very
much.
Can
we
get
staff
to
CL
yeah?
Just
we
got
people
gathered
out.
There
knows
the
refreshments.
We
don't
want
to
force
people
to
go,
that's
perfect.
If
we
can
keep
those
doors.
Yes
can
we
get
a
motion
to
approve
the
communication
just
right
by
the
clerk
move
by
commissioner
Whiteford
second
by
commissioner
Johnson,
any
a
discussion
on
those
Communications.
All
these
are
time
sensitive.
The
Grant
application
came
in
in
off
sequence
of
what
our
normal
business
would
be.
A
Seeing
no
discussion
I
will
ask
for
all
in
favor
approving
the
communication
say:
aye
aye
opposed,
say,
nay,
let
the
record
reflect
that
the
communications
are
received
unanimously.
The
next
we'll
move
into
public
comment.
This
first
public
comment
is
to
speak
on
items
as
it
relates
to
on
the
consent,
agenda
or
the
regular
agenda.
We
have
a
second
public
comment
to
speak
on
any
other
topic
if
you're
here
to
speak
in
public
comments.
A
Just
let
me
mention
the
item
that
you're
speaking
to
and
if
you
can
come
to
the
mic,
I
don't
think
anyone's
signed
up
for
it.
So
unless
there's
someone
in
the
audience,
that's
speaking
to
public
account
and
the
items
on
the
agenda,
there
is
a
second
public
comment
to
speak
on
any
other
topic.
That's
after
we
complete
the
new
business.
A
Seeing
none
I
will
close
the
first
public
comment
and
then
we
will
have
the
second
public
comment
shortly.
This
will
move
to
the
reports
of
standing
committees.
Mostly
items
that
we're
taking
up
today
is
on
the
consent
agenda.
So
I
need
a
motion
to
move
the
consent
agenda.
Move
by
commissioner
Powell
seconded
by
commissioner
Hoffman
is
there
any
discussion
reflects
the
work
of
the
Committees
the
last
week.
A
lot
of
Road
programs
and
a
number
of
other
items
see
no
discussion.
A
A
Q
A
By
commissioner
Markham
seconded
by
commissioner
Lubes,
is
there
any
discussion
seen
no
discussion,
Mr
clerk,
please
prompt
the
vote.
A
Q
P
P
There
was
one
of
our
kiters
just
came
from
artavon
Italy
Italy
450
000
people
were
there
last
week.
That's
that's
how
big
these
kind
of
things
could
be.
Now
this
one
is
in
line
Township,
James,
F,
Atchison,
Memorial
Park
might
only
be
10
000
people,
but
it's
a
great
event.
It's
June.
Third
and
fourth,
it's
I
appreciate
his
support
from
everybody.
It's
a
great
event
sounds.
A
Of
everybody
I
think
it's
I'm,
looking
forward
to
the
board's
entrance
into
this,
this
Festival
so
in
contest.
Q
A
I've
been
there
fantastic
any
further
discussion,
Christians.
Q
A
Never
vote
in
the
affirmative.
The
resolution
is
adopted,
commissioner
Markham.
Q
Q
These
are
all
ways
that
the
Commissioners
can
support
what's
going
on
in
their
community
and
they
show
you
the
diversity
across
our
County
of
the
really
fun
activities
that
we
have
and
I
really
appreciate
that
we
have
the
ability
to
participate
locally
in
all
of
the
small
communities,
with
some
help
financially
with
their
special
events
that
that
every
Community
has
so
I
hope.
We
can
continue
this
practice
for
quite
a
long
time.
So
the
next
item
is
the
Board
of
Commissioners
sponsorship
of
the
2023
U.S
national
Bocce
tournament.
A
A
Right,
thank
you
very
much
that
will
bring
us
to
the
legislative
affairs
and
government
operations
committee
chaired
by
commissioner
mcgilvery.
T
A
By
commissioner
mcgilvery
seconded
by
commissioner
Johnson
I
believe
that
there's
also
a
Amendment
to
this
item,
I
believe
all
Commissioners
were
sent
over
because
I'm
going
to
scroll
down
to
the
agenda
here.
U
A
And
the
amendment
is
to
include
the
program
guidelines
that
were
supplied
per
the
request
of
the
committee
of
the
executive
office
and
so
that
amendment's
moved
by
commissioner
Jackson
seconded
by
commissioner
Cavell.
Any
discussion
on
the
amendment
commissioner
Spitz.
W
A
A
A
See
no
discussion
I'll
just
say
that
I
think
I
mean
this
was
a
program
and
I
that
was
proposed
during
executive
Coulter
state
of
the
county
address
just
last
month,
I
guess
technically
March
and
to
be
able
to
bring
this
I
think
it's
an
incredible
opportunity
to
invest
in
our
youth
and
identify
opportunities
to
be
the
things
that
make
the
difference
to
have
things
go
and
so
I'm
very
excited
that
we're
able
to
bring
us
to
fruition
and
it'll
be
a
partnership
with
the
executive
office,
the
board
and
our
partners
at
leadership.
A
A
Sufficient
Ember
vote
in
the
affirmative.
The
resolution
is
adopted,
commissioner
mcgilvery
next.
T
Item
Mr
chairman
is
Parks
and
Recreation

First
Amendment

of
Springfield
for
the
Mill
Pond
Dam
maintenance
and
repair
Mr
chair
on
behalf
of
the
legislative
affairs
and
government
committee.
I
move

recommended.
Adoption
of
the
foregoing
resolution
moved.
A
By
commissioner
mcgilvery
seconded
by
commissioner
Jackson
or
commissioner
Joliet
commissioner
Joliet
to
let
me
second
that
one
any
discussion
seeing
no
discussion,
Mr
clerk,
please
prompt
the
vote
on
the
resolution.
T
W
T
A
Right
all
the
items
for
public
health
and
safety
were
taken
up
under
the
consent
agenda
and
it'll.
Take
us
the
reports
of
special
committees.
There
is
none
special
order
of
business,
none
unfinished
business.
None
and
I'll
move
us
to
new
and
miscellaneous
business
and
I
will
call
on
commissioner
mcgillery.
A
Commissioner,
mcgivery
moves
for
immediate
consideration
of
the
item
seconded
by
commissioner
long,
all
in
favor
of
suspending
the
rules
to
take
up
this
item
immediately,
say
aye
aye
oppose,
say,
nay,
let
the
record
reflect
that
the
it
passed
the
the
motion
to
for
immediate
consideration
passes
unanimously
and
that
will
move
us
to
the
main
motion
moved
by
commissioner
mcgilvery
seconded
by
commissioner
long.
Any
discussion
on
this
item
I
believe
that
maybe
both
caucuses
talked
about
this.
This
is
a
grant
opportunity.
That's
that's!
Coming
per
our
County
policy.
A
Anything
over
ten
thousand
dollars
needs
board
approval.
We
certainly
like
welcoming
resources
but,
most
importantly,
the
summer's
coming,
and
this
is
going
to
pay
for
swim
lessons
for
those
who
often
are
deprived
of
that
opportunity,
and
so
really
I
mean
a
partnership
between
Metro,
Parks
and
Oakland.
County
Parks
is
a
great
thing.
So,
thanks
for
bringing
this
forward
and
having
us
act
promptly,
any
further
discussion
see
none
Mr
court.
Please
prompt
the
vote.
A
Special
member
vote
in
the
affirmative,
the
resolution
is
adopted.
We
have
a
few
other
items
for
introduction.
I
will
first
call
on
commissioner
Cavell.
U
So
I'd
like
to
referred
to
finance
committee
sponsorship
of
2023
Huntington
Woods
fireworks.
U
Item
d,
like
referred
to
finance
something
co-sponsored
by
commissioner
Smith
Charles
myself
and
commissioner
gershenson
a
contribution
to
the
creation
of
a
web-based
Community
Connection
app
by
the
alliance
for
housing
to
finance
referred.
A
Without
objection,
commissioner,
Powell
holiday
extravaganza
refer
to
finance.
A
A
What
else
do
we
got?
Do
we
have?
Do
we
take
care
of
them?
One
second
is
that
all
of
them
I
believe
that's
all
of
them:
yep,
okay,
good,
all,
right,
okay,
that'll,
move
us
to
announcements.
Is
there
any
announcements
that
the
board
has
for
anybody
all
right,
take
care,
good
care
of,
and
then
think
of
your
your
mother's,
take
good
care
of
them
this
weekend
and
think
them
and
hold
them
in
our
hearts
if
they
are
not
with
us
today.
A
This
will
now
move
us
to
the
second
public
comment.
This
is
the
opportunity
to
speak
on
any
topic.
We
ask
that
I
mean
I
will
start
with
the
folks
that
have
been
signed
up
and
then
anybody
else
who
wants
to
come
forward
and
speak
I
I
mean
first
I
mean
I,
I
I'll.
A
Just
let
me
kind
of
start
off
that
I
just
want
to
say
a
couple
words
I've
spoken
to
a
number
of
parents
of
Notre,
Dame,
Prep
and
I,
just
think
I
think
to
put
in
context
of
where
the
board
is
first
and
foremost,
I
want
to
just
make
certain
that
everyone
watching
at
home
or
here
in
the
audience.
That's
this
board.
And
frankly,
all
the
public
leaders,
Oakland
County,
take
the
safety
of
all
children,
regardless
of
what
school
they
go
to.
A
The
the
the
the
issue
at
hand
is
putting
in
place,
I
mean
a
policy
and
a
contract
for
schools.
Historically,
Oakland
County
does
not
contract
with
schools,
and
that
will
be
a
new
thing.
We
contract
with
cities,
Villages
and
townships,
and
they
are
the
contract
administer
of
law
enforcement
Services,
because
some
cities
have
decided
not
to
want
to
be
a
pass-through
or
set
up
a
separate
Arrangements.
A
We've
got
to
develop
a
policy
so
that
I
mean
in
and
be
and
then
be
the
direct
contractor
with
schools,
school
districts
and,
as
we
would
suspect,
more
going
forward.
We
are
working
with
the
administration
fiscal
services,
our
our
legal
team
risk
management
to
make.
Certainly
all
our
ducks
are
in
a
row
and
I
mean
I
want
to
just
I
mean,
as
I've
told
a
number
of
parents
I've
had
opportunity
to
talk
to
that.
A
We
are
going
to
I,
mean
get
this
in
place
long
before
the
start
of
the
next
school
year
and,
most
importantly,
even
though
a
contract
technically
actually
does
not
exist.
Currently
the
services
that
have
been
in
place
and
have
been
in
place
for
a
while
it
does
not
exist
with
the
city
of
Pontiac
or
the
of
the
county.
A
That's
going
to
stay
in
place
until
this
gets
all
put
in
place,
and
so
I
want
to
make
sure
that
all
parents
know
that
nothing
is
changing
in
that
regard,
and
we
will
have
a
contract
very
soon
with
that,
I
will
first
call
on
Michael.
Is
it
Kaza
hack.
A
I
Three
minutes:
well:
Michael
kazemchak
I'm,
a
resident
of
Lake
Angeles
I'm,
a
parent
of
several
students
at
Notre,
Dame
Prep.
Thank
you
for
your
opening
comments.
I
think
factually
there
may
be
some
questions
in
terms
of
the
affirmations
you
made
and
the
the
position
that
many
that
have
looked
at
the
contract
that
exists
today
that
in
fact
there
is
a
contract
in
place.
I
So
I
guess
we
can
talk
about
that
offline
I'm
here
to
express
I,
guess
our
disappointment
that
you've
been
in
possession
of
a
contract
that
was
prepared
by
a
Sheriff
Richard
since
December,
and
that
this
contract
has
not
been
acted
upon
as
background
the
contract
has
the
school
paying
a
hundred
percent
of
the
costs,
as
defined
by
Sheriff
Bouchard.
So
there's
just
a
big
question
mark
As
to
the
delays.
Eighty
percent
of
our
students
are
Oakland
County
residents,
hopefully
post
the
Channel
7
News.
I
You
realize
that
there
is
a
large
cross-section
of
residents
in
the
county
that
are
troubled,
that
this
matters
become
politicized
and
that
it
really
it
does
threaten
our
children's
safety.
I
appreciate
chairman
Woodward
the
comments
about
fall
and
class,
but
our
campus
operates
year-round.
We
have
law
enforcement
there
year
round
because
the
students
are
there
year
round.
So
it's
important
that
we
resolve
this
rather
quickly
to
ensure
a
continuation
of
those
services
with
the
Sheriff's,
Office
and
I.
I
Think
the
request
this
evening
is
your
definitive
commitment
that
this
will
be
on
the
June
agenda.
Chairman
Woodward
can
I
have
your
commitment
that
the
Notre
Dame
contract
will
be
on
the
June
agenda.
A
I
I
Considerable
time
has
passed,
this
matter
has
become
more
volatile.
It
is
escalating
as
evidence
of
this
I
was
in
contact
earlier
today,
with
attorney
Stephen
dunman
with
bodman
law.
I
understand
you
exchanged
Communications
with
him,
and
you
understand
his
position
on
this
matter
for
the
other
Commissioners.
If
you're
not
privity,
to
the
back
and
forth
that
the
chairman
has
been
having
with
attorney
done,
it
would
be
appropriate
for
you
to
get
copies
of
that
communication.
I
It
will
also
provide
you
with
additional
context
in
terms
of
the
message
from
Attorney
Dunn
Attorney
Dunn
requested
that
I
formally
message
the
board.
If
this
matter
is
not
resolved
immediately,
he
will
take
appropriate
legal
action
on
behalf
of
the
students
and
the
school
against
the
commission,
for
failure
to
act
to
approve
the
new
Arrangement
and
Supply
deputies
to
the
school
on
a
permanent
basis.
I
hope
that
we
can
forego
this
matter
escalating.
I
A
O
Michigan
also
parents
of
Notre,
Dame,
Prep,
children
and
I'm
sure
you
all
know
my
name
if
you
don't
know
my
face
because
I
fledge
your
inbox
all
the
time
but
I
just
had
a
question
about
why
the
existing
contract
that
was
already
drafted
by
the
Oakland
County,
Sheriff's,
Office
and
Michael
Bouchard
can't
move
forward.
I
guess
you
know,
I
mean
considering
this
is
a
contract
with
their
office
in
our
school
and
that's
kind
of
their
wheelhouse.
O
You
know
they
already
had
Corporation
Council.
You
know
draft
the
contract
and
approve
it.
It
doesn't.
You
know,
go
against
any
state
legal
laws
or
you
know
anything
like
that,
so
just
to
clear
it
up.
Why
can't
that
existing
contract
move
forward?
Why
do
we
have
to
kind
of
recreate
the
wheel
on
this.
O
Oh
okay.
Well,
that's
my
public
comment.
Thank
you.
So
if
anyone
wants
to
email
me,
some
answers
to
that
that
would
be
great
because
so
far
I've
said
you
know
a
number
of
emails
and
I've
gotten
no
responses
from
anybody
so
anyway.
Obviously,
if
you,
you
know,
have
any
answers
to
that,
that
would
be
great
I
guess
we
can
move
it
offline.
You
know
we
want
to
respect
your
process,
but
that
is
a
big
question
that
all
the
parents
have
really
is.
There
is
a
contract
drafted?
G
Thank
you.
My
name
is
Kevin
noneen
I
live
in
Troy
I
as
well.
Am
the
father
of
two
Notre
Dame
students
and
I
hope
that
Board
of
Commissioners
I
could
see
this
contract
get
on
the
agenda.
G
My
understanding
is
that
discussions
start
in
December.
Here
we
are
five
minutes
later
three
months.
The
school
year
starts
two
kids.
There
we're
willing
to
fund
it
I
think
school
safety
is
everyone's
best
interest.
There's
not
a
financial
hurdle
to
this,
and
it
doesn't
seem
like
we've
made
any
progress
so
far,
so
I
ask
that
you
please
whatever
fiduciary
legal
review.
G
It
has
it's
the
same
answers
I
heard
before
so
it
sounds
like
it's
being
installed,
with
no
reason
and
I
like
to
encourage
you
guys
to
please
push
this
forward,
and
hopefully
we
won't
have
to
show
up
next
month
and
thus,
of
course,
there's
something
else
of
interest
to
us.
Thank
you
very
much.
W
A
You
welcome
if
you
can
state
your
name
and
residency
and
welcome
good.
K
K
I,
just
I
am
here
to
let
you
know
of
the
depth
of
this
community
I'm
an
alumni
parent
and
I'm
hearing
that
the
students
may
not
have
the
same
safety
that
that
other
students
and
with
sros
do
that
disturbs
me.
There
was
a
situation
that
my
children
were
involved
in
in
2013,
that
involved
the
Oakland
County
sheriff
and
the
school,
and
having
that
SRO
would
have
made
me
feel
much
better
in
what
happened.
K
Thankfully,
it's
been
resolved.
Everything
is
fine,
but
it's
just
that
idea
of
safety.
I
also
want
to
call
the
commissioner's
attention
to.
There
are
two
other
high
school
campuses
within
walking
distance
of
no
day
Preparatory,
including
Pontiac,
high
school
and
Oakland
technical
campus
Northeast
having
sros
together
in
those
three
campuses,
I
could
see
where
there
would
be
some
really
good
continuity.
K
H
Commissioner,
oh
commissioner,
Powell
I've
had
a
very
difficult
day
today,
but
I
want
to
stand
with
my
Commissioners
I
represent
where
Notre
Dame
school
is
and
I
want
to
promise
you,
parents,
our
commissioners,
have
been
on
board
in
support
of
a
SRO
officer,
be
it
at
any
school,
especially
post,
Oxford
situation.
Okay,
there
is
a
process.
I
know
it's
a
lot
of
back
and
forth
between
us
and
the
sheriff's
department.
I
know
that,
and
let
me
say
this
to
you
all:
I
stay
right:
there
I'm.
H
Oh
I'm,
sorry
well,
I
just
wanted
to
really
stress
to
them
as
a
commissioner
representing
that
area.
Thank
you,
I'm,
sorry,
I'm,
sorry
representing
that
area
and
on
behalf
of
our
commissioners
to
let
you
parents
know
we
hear
you
all
and
yes,
there
are
two
other
schools
right
there
that
share
the
same
campus
and
yes,
we
do
have
sros
already
at
the
High
School
and
a
high
school
is
troubled.
H
Notre
Dame
has
been
safe
over
the
years
and,
yes,
we
do
understand
that
you
financially
is
taking
care
of
it
in
everything.
But
there
is
a
process
and
a
lot
of
stuff.
You
all
don't
know,
but
at
the
end
of
the
day
our
chair
has
promised
us
as
Commissioners
and
especially
commissioner
Spears,
that
this
will
be
rectified
as
soon
as
possible,
but
we
know
for
damn
sure
before
them.
Kids
start
school
by
next
summer
and
I
wanted
to
go
on
record
with
that
I.
H
A
You
right,
thank
you
very
much.
Thank
you,
commissioner,
Powell
and
I.
Think
I
guess
like
for
those
who
are
watching
at
home.
Sor
sros
that
have
been
in
place
in
Notre,
Dame
Prep
are
still
in
place
and
that
has
never
changed,
never
been
in
Jeopardy
or
anything,
and
we
will
get
this
resolved
as
soon
as
possible.
