A
County
Board
of
commission's
meeting
and
I
will
ask
the
the
the
clerk
to
please
call
the
roll.
C
E
A
The
invocation
this
evening
will
be
led
by
The
Honorable
Janet
Jackson,
and
then
we
will
immediately
follow
the
invocation
with
the
Pledge
of
Allegiance.
So
without
any
further
ado,
commissioner
Jackson.
G
Scripture
I
want
to
just
read
the
23rd
psalm,
but
I
have
a
little
story
about
it.
When
I
was
a
little
girl
coming
up,
my
grandmother
made
us
all
memorized
23rd
psalms.
She
said
it
would
always
Comfort
us
when
we
were
having
issues
and
just
discomfort
in
our
lives,
so
remember
the
23rd,
psalm
and
then
I
would
try
to
get
up
in
her
bed,
which
was
probably
about
this
high
off
the
ground.
So
if
you
remember
those
old
beds
right
so
here
we
go,
the
Lord
is
my
shepherd.
I
shall
not
want.
G
He
maketh
me
lie
down
in
Green
Pastures.
He
leads
me
beside
the
Still
Waters.
He
restoreth
my
soul.
He
leadeth
me
in
the
past
of
righteousness
for
his
name's
sake.
Yea,
though
I
walk
through
the
valley
of
the
shadow
of
death
I
will
fear
no
evil
for
thou
art
with
me
thy
rod
and
thy
staff.
They
comfort
me
thou,
prepares
the
table
before
me
in
the
presence
of
mine
enemies.
H
G
A
Thank
you
very
much,
commissioner.
Next
it
we
will
look
for
a
motion
to
approve
the
minutes
from
our
February
16th
meeting
moved
by
commissioner
Joliet
seconded
by
commissioner
mcgilvery.
Any
discussion
on
the
minutes
see
none
all
in
favor
of
approving
the
minute
say:
aye
aye
opposed,
say
let
the
record
reflect
that
the
minutes
have
been
approved
unanimously,
and
this
will
move
us
to
an
approval
of
the
agenda
moved
by
commissioner
mcgilvery
seconded
by
commissioner
long.
A
Any
discussion
on
the
agenda
see
none
the
all
in
favor
of
approval
of
the
agenda
as
presented,
say
aye.
I
A
J
We're
presenting
this
Proclamation
tonight
to
my
new
best
friend,
Jack
Parr
I,
responded
to
a
add
on
Facebook
Marketplace
to
buy
truck
wheels,
aluminum
wheels,
so
I
ended
up
going
to
jack
parr's
house
and
I
saw
a
semi-park
there
and
I
said
Jack
who's
who
semis
that
and
he
says
it's
his
I
said:
do
you
still
drive
it
and
he
said
yeah
I
said
how
old
are
you?
He
said:
89.
he's
driven
over
12
million
miles,
wow.
K
J
Oh
accident
free,
that's
the
most
important
part.
So
before
we
read
the
proclamation,
I
want
to
put
12
million
miles
into
perspective,
so
we
have
a
better
idea.
What
that
really
means
you
could
go
to
the
moon
and
back
25
times,
12
million
miles.
You
could
go
to
Mackin
aisle
in
the
back
24
000
times
you
could
go
to
Chairman
Woodward's
District,
222,
222
times
round
trip.
J
I
L
J
J
J
Which
allowed
him
to
leave
farming
to
become
a
commercial
vehicle
operator?
Mr
pirate
Granite
began
his
career
as
a
limo
driver
in
1972
was
an
active
member
of
the
UAW
Teamsters
working
alongside
Jimmy
Hoffa.
He
later
accepted
a
position
at
Fleet
Carrier
Corporation
in
Pontiac,
where
he
found
his
passion
for
Trucking
in
1982.
He
purchased
his
first
commercial
truck
for
seventy
two
thousand
dollars
and
found
a
Jack
Parr
Trucking
Industries
in
Clarkston
Michigan
from
there
Mr
power
was
able
to
expand
his
business
buildings,
a
fleet
of
10
semi
trucks
and
seven
converted
commercial
pickup
trucks.
D
Whereas
in
his
lifetime,
Mr
Parr
has
traveled
from
coast
to
coast,
logging
estimated
12
my
12
million
miles
in
total,
whereas
he
has
delivered
aircraft
equipment
to
Seattle
refrigerated
fish
from
New
York
car
handles
each
truckload
with
great
care
at
age
89.
He
has
no
plans
to
retire
in
the
near
future.
D
And
on
this
special
occasion,
We
join
with
Mr
parr's
family,
including
his
wife,
Betty,
five
children
and
ten
grandchildren
to
congratulate
Jack
Parr
on
his
hand
and
we're
in
on
his
hand
and
we're
commitment
to
the
trucking
industry.
Therefore,
now,
therefore
let
it
be
resolved.
Dave
Woodward,
chair
of
the
Oakland
County
Board
of
Commissioners,
and
commissioner
Bob
Hoffman
and
myself
Commissioner
Karen
Joliet,
as
you
are
in
my
district.
So
thank
you
for
including
me:
do
you
hereby
honor
Jack
parr's
outstanding
Legacy?
We
wish
him
the
best
and
future
endeavors.
I
I'm
not
much
of
getting
a
speech
unless
I'm
driving
a
truck
on
a
CB
radio
anyway
I
was
graduate
from
high
school
and
I
was
in
the
Rotunda
man
to
in
them
days
it's
rotunda,
but
the
board
of
fishing
done
everything
they
gave
me
a
farm
deferment,
so
I
wouldn't
have
to
be
drafted,
and
then
I
was
in
the
Rotana
one
other
time
and
about
19
62
to
get
a
concealed
weapon
permit
named
everything
had
to
be
done
through
hell,
so
I
started
riding
a
truck.
I
Suppose
I
tried
being
a
farmer,
you
know,
and
but
I
Got
Loaded
not
dead,
and
then
I
locked,
two
fingers
here
and
so
I
decided,
whatever
left
I
might
be
able
to
drive
a
truck,
so
I
didn't
have
no
commercial
license
or
nothing
and
they
had
no
Union
card.
So
I
went
to
Jimmy
office
warehouse
over
there,
where
the
state
building
is
now
over
there
off
of
off
of
24,
and
they
hired
me.
But
I
only
done
that
for
two
weeks.
I
So
then
I
had
my
CDL
then
and
I
had
my.
It
wasn't
CDL
and
it
was
commercial.
Then
I
had
a
a
union
card,
so
then
I
went
to
fruit
carrier
I
couldn't
Hack
That
limousine
dragon,
so
they
had
to
do
things
that
normal
people
wouldn't
do
so
I
decided
I
didn't
want
to
do
that
now.
My
first
trip
point:
they
sent
me
the
Metro
Airport
to
pick
up
a
suitcase
put
in
the
trunk,
bring
it
back
to
them.
I
So
I
have
a
real
good
luck
at
quick
carrier.
They
was
good
to
me
and
I
think
they
were
proud
of
me
that
I've
done
things
and
no
other
driver
ever
done
for
him.
I
spent
27
days,
hauling
that
General
George
around
to
make
the
movie
and
in
our
country
my
first
crop
was
in
Arizona.
Second
drop
was
Oklahoma.
City
I
had
seven
different
locations,
it
ended
up
in
Atlanta
Georgia,
so
they
flew
me
home
every
weekend,
told
Canada
family
and
that's
the
only
time
I've
been
away
from
home.
I
That
much
but
I've
done
a
lot
of
things.
In
my
life
driving
the
truck
and
I've
seen
some
things
that
I
didn't
want
to
see.
I
seen
something
that
was
good.
I
I
Not
my
place,
so
I
appreciate
you
getting
the
award
and
I
want
to
thank
my
wife
and
my
kid
through
my
whole
life.
Well,
that's
about
all
I
got
to
say.
J
I
C
I
I
C
A
A
In
my
house,
I
mean
my
I,
mean
wife
very
involved
with
the
work
that
she's
doing
and
all
the
meetings
they
were
doing
to
respond
to
a
need
that
needed
attention
and
if
it
wasn't
for
Dr
Z
winners,
leadership
to
help
pull
together
a
community.
A
The
progress
that's
been
made
wouldn't
be
be
possible.
I
mean
a
little
way
of
background.
The
Royal,
Oak
Multicultural
appearance,
Association
got
founded
out
of
a
need
of
I
mean
students
of
color
biracial
ice
students
and
I
mean
there
were
National
stories
about
things
happening
in
our
school
district
and
no
one
wants
to
be
I
mean
the
the
headline
story
that
brings
discomfort
or
disappointment
to
a
national
phenomenons
that
were
playing
out.
A
Parents
came
together
concerned
for
their
children
as
a
product
of
the
school
district.
I
was
incredibly
proud
of
parents
that
came
together
to
take
at
take
a
strategic
and
focus
approach
to
make
certain
that
the
needs
to
protect
I
mean
children
that
were
I.
Guess
if
you
put
in
a
category
in
the
minority
but
more
importantly,
to
address
systematic
issues,
disproportionate
disciplinary
issues,
words
that
are
being
said
and
not
checked,
and
how
I
mean
and
bringing
attention
to
issues
and
informing
parents.
A
How
do
we
have
these
difficult
conversations
and
work
collaboratively
to
create
a
community
to
create
schools
that
create
an
opportunity
for
all
children
to
learn,
and
so
with
that
I'm
going
to
present
this
Proclamation
and
I'd
be
I,
mean
we'll
call
on
commissioner
Cavell
and
commissioner
Lubes,
who
also
represent
Royal
Oak,
and
commissioner
Smith
Charles
who's?
Not
able
to
be
here
because
Dr
Lisa
Z
Winters
is

of
Oak
Park.
A
All
I
mean
want
to
present
this
proclamation
to
you
and
your
leadership,
whereas
extraordinary
individuals
who
reach
the
highest
levels
of
education
and
use
their
knowledge
and
experience
to
advocate
for
others
and
enrich
that
enrich
Oakland
County
and
whereas
Dr
Lisa
Z
winters
of
Oak
Park
is
one
one
of
these
such
individuals
or
she's.
An

also

Alum

I
am
and
a
PhD

African

A
Sorry

your
deep
knowledge
of
the
University's
undergraduate
program
and
specialized
expertise.
She
was
named
associate

the
English

She

our
shared
Community,
Dr,
Z
Winters
is
co-organizer
of
the
Royal
Oak
Multicultural
parents
Association.
Since
its
foundation
in
2017,
the
parent-led
group
has
been
driven
by
its
mission
of
increasing
diversity,
equity
and
inclusion
practices
in
the
city's
schools.

succeed
and.
I
A
And
the
other
co-founder
of
rompo,
the
Royal
Oak
Multicultural
appearance,
Association
Daniel
Atkinson,
is
a
dear
friend
of
both
of
us
who've
been
working
in
the
space
for
a
very
long
time.
Their
continued
work
in
the
community
strides
I
mean
to
address
diversity,
Equity
inclusion,
those
efforts
led
to
the
hiring
of
the
first
Dei
coordinator
in
Royal
Oak
schools,
adding
inclusive
texts
to
school
libraries,
presenting
professional
development
on
topics
such
as
cultural
proficiency
and
social
justice.
The
Royal
school
districts
are
better
because
of
all
their
work
and
I
couldn't
be
more
proud.
Thank
you.
N
Thank
you
so
much
I'm
kind
of
overwhelmed
and
also
I
I,
don't
know
how
to
address
you
as
chair
woodwork.
So
you
know
I.
My
co-organizer
is
not
here.
This
is
not
me.
We
are
a
parent-led
group
and
we
operate
on
the
principle
of
that.
N
If
you
attend
to
the
needs
of
the
most
marginalized
and
disadvantaged
children
in
the
district,
then
everyone
all
students
in
the
district
benefit-
and
you
know
our
group
started
in
2017
following
the
national
events
or
the
national
viral
video
of
the
children,
chanting
Bill
to
build
the
wall
chant
and
then
a
week
later,
news
was
found
hanging
in
the
boy's
bathroom
at
both
at
the
middle
school
and
our
operating
principal
has
always
been.
You
know.
Children
will
be
children.
N
What
matters
is,
how
do
the
adults
respond
in
the
building
and,
and
so
that
has
been
our
Focus
and
yeah
I.
Don't
have
a
lot
more
to
say,
I
just
want
to.
Thank
you
all
I
really
appreciate
this,
and
I
am
definitely
the
worker
behind
the
scenes.
So
it's
hard
for
me
to
be
up
here
talking
without
my
my
partner,
and
so
it's
really
ironic
that
she
is
not
here
and
she
can't
be
here
so
I
just
want
to
thank
you
so.
N
A
Well,
thank
you
again,
congratulations
to
both
of
our
Proclamation
recipients
this
evening.
Next
up
we
have
a
presentation
from
Oakland,
Community,
College
and
so
I
will
call
on
Chancellor
Pete
provazano
to
come
to
the
podium.
We
are
incredibly
fortunate.
Our
established
long-term
partnership
with
OCC
I
mean
my
family
has
benefited
from
that
partnership.
The
so
many
individuals
got
opportunities
because
of
the
largest
Community
College
here
in
Michigan
I
would
argue
the
greatest
Community
College
in
all
of
Michigan
and
hey
Pete
I'll.
Let
you
introduce
the
the
team.
A
That's
here
and
I
mean
particularly
our
chair
of
our
of
your
board.
Pamela
Jackson
from
the
great
Township
of
of
Commerce,
but
I'll
have
in
the
presentation
to
you,
I
think
we
actually
you
have
a
slideshow,
but
I
mean
this
is
an
opportunity
to
give
an
update
about
some
of
the
amazing
things
that
are
are
happening
in
the
OCC
World
in
Oakland
County.
Thank.
O
You
chair:
can
you
hear
me?
Okay,
yeah,
it's
always
a
pleasure.
We
look
forward
to
presenting
to
the
Board
of
Commissioners
every
year
to
really
tell
you
about
the
amazing
things
that
are
happening
at
OCC
and
I
was
thinking
a
little
bit
about
our
presentation
this
year
with
so
much
that
is
changing
over
the
last
several
years.
It
just
feels,
like
things,
are
changing
faster
and
faster
than
they
ever
have.
O
Don't
you
think
I
thought
what
I
would
do
is
share
with
you,
our
plan
for
the
future
that
we
unveiled
this
past
fall
and
answer
any
questions
that
you
may
have
so
before
we
talk
about
the
future.
I
always
like
to
just
spend
a
little
bit
of
time
on
the
past.
O
First
OCC
has
actually
been
in
existence.
Almost
60
years
in
2025
we
will
be
celebrating
our
60th
anniversary
I
like
to
see
our
60th
birthday
and
something
we're
really
proud
of
over
a
million
students
have
taken
classes
since
1965
at
OCC
and
I.
Just
think
that
is
just
an
awesome
statistic
and
we've
come
a
long
way
since
1965.
I,
don't
know
about
you,
but
I.
Actually
remember
registration
at
OCC
used
to
look
like
this.
Before
there
were
computers.
It
was
absolutely
crazy,
I
know.
O
As
a
student,
it
was
challenging
to
pick
your
classes
and
hope
that
they
had
them
by
the
time
you
that
they
were
available
by
the
time
you
got
up
to
the
desk.
But
what
I
can't
imagine
now
that
I
I
work
at
a
college
is
all
of
the
background
things
that
must
have
happened
without
without
computers.
In
fact,
some
of
our
buildings
or
older
buildings
still
have
these
massive
closets,
where
they
would
store
all
of
these
files
and
all
of
the
student
files.
But
now
all
that
is
all
on
computer.
O
Thank
goodness
and
we've
point
is:
we've
evolved
as
technology
evolved,
so
did
we,
and
so,
as
I
mentioned,
the
landscape
for
higher
ed
is
actually
changing
faster
than
ever
before,
and
higher
education
really
needs
to
respond
quickly.
Otherwise
we
will
be
left
behind,
and
so,
as
we
starts
as
we
get
close
to
our
60th
anniversary
I,
we
started
to
really
ask
ourselves
what
what
does
the
next
60
years
look
like?
O
How
do
we
continue
to
deliver
on
our
strategic
objectives
of
access,
inclusion,
Equity,
Innovation
as
well
as
collaboration,
and
so
what
I'm
really
talking
about
is
future
proofing
OCC.
So
what
does
that
mean?
What
do
I
mean
by
Future
proofing?
Well,
the
definition
of
future
proofing
is
to
design
or
change
something,
so
it'll
continue
to
be
useful
or
successful
in
the
future.
O
If
the
situation,
changes
and
I'm
really
proud
of
the
college
and
the
work
that
we've
done
on
this
plan,
I
really
think
that
we're
ahead
of
the
curve,
I
think
you're
going
to
see
other
higher
ed
institutions
looking
at
the
same
types
of
things.
In
fact,
I
have
presidents
of
other
universities
and
community
colleges
that
are
calling
me
saying
so
tell
me
a
little
bit
about
this
plan
that
you've
put
in
place
because
they're
really
feeling
the
same
pressures
as
we
are,
and
so
what
are
those
current
forces
that
higher
ed
is
dealing
with?
O
Well,
enrollment
enrollment
is
declining
I.
Think,
that's
something
that
you
probably
are
well
aware
of.
You
read
about
it
in
the
newspapers,
you
see
it
on
TV
and
it's
a
phenomenon.
It's
a
national
Trend
as
well
as
a
local
Trend.
It
affects
all
of
higher
ed,
including
four-year
universities,
as
well
as
community
colleges,
and
while
OCC
has
fared
pretty
well.
When
you
take
a
look
at
our
our
colleagues
from
around
the
state,
the
reality
is,
we
have
half
the
number
of
students
and
half
the
amount
of
credits.
O
Then
we
that
we
had
in
2011,
which
is
when
we
had
our
Peak
enrollment,
half
the
number
of
students,
and
so
you
know
people
ask
you
know
Pete.
Why
is
that?
Well,
there's
a
lot
of
reasons.
One
populations
are
declining,
there
are
fewer
high
school
graduates
at
K-12
and
you
hear
our
K-12
friends
talking
about
the
same
thing,
but
right
now
we
also
have
a
very
strong
labor
market,
which
is
a
disincentive
in
a
way
it's
good,
but
in
a
way
it's
bad
because
it's
a
disincentive
to
go
to
school.
O
You
know
I,
remember
being
18
19
years
old,
you're
thinking
is
short
term,
and
so
students
are
looking
at
the
value
proposition
of
higher
ed
they're,
looking
at
the
cost,
they're
looking
at
the
work
and
when
they
look
at
and
they
do
the
math,
they
say
well,
why
would
I
spend
that
money?
Why
would
I
spend
that
time
to
earn
25
an
hour
after
I
earn
a
degree
when
I
can
go
to
Starbucks
and
make
twenty
dollars
an
hour
right?
It's
only
five
dollars
an
hour
difference,
but
this
is
short-term
thinking.
O
We
all
know
that
right
when
you
look
at
a
career,
you
are
more
recession-proof,
you
are
more
employable.
You
have
a
greater
earnings
potential
with
a
degree
or
skill,
and
so
we're
trying
to
get
the
word
out
to
those
students.
But
the
reality
is
that's
what
that's?
What
we're
dealing
with?
That's
what
they're
thinking
to
magnify
the
issue.
While
there
are
fewer
students
that
are
choosing
higher
education,
those
that
are
choosing
higher
ed
are
taking
their
classes
online.
Here's
an
interesting
statistic:
just
several
years
ago,
at
OCC,
five
percent
of
our
classes
were
online.
O
O
And
so
our
conundrum
is
this:
with
fewer
students
and
50
percent
of
them
being
online.
We
have
the
largest
footprint
of
any
Community
College
in
the
state
of
Michigan.
We
have
2.2
million
square
feet
of
building
space,
that
acreage
building
space
and
so
think
about
that.
It's
hard
to
wrap
your
head
around.
So
I
always
like
to
use
this
as
an
example.
Think
of
a
2
000
square
foot
home
the
maintenance
on
that
home,
the
cost
of
maintaining
the
home
the
work
of
maintaining
that
2
000
square
foot
home.
O
We
have
a
thousand
of
them
that
we
maintain
across
all
five
of
our
campuses
and
with
50
percent
of
our
students
online.
A
lot
of
those
buildings
are
empty
now
and
they're
Eerie.
It's
not
a
fun
place
to
be
and
they're
expensive
to
run,
and
so
what
we
really
need
to
do
when
you
think
about
the
next
60
years.
We
need
to
shift
the
money
that
we're
spending
on
those
empty
buildings
and
we
need
to
shift
them
to
physical
facilities
that
are
innovated
Innovative.
O
O
We
have
plans
in
place
to
double
our
graduation
rate
within
the
next
few
years.
Here's
the
thing
our
new
student
enrollment
is
actually
up.
Despite
there
being
fewer
high
school
students,
we
are
doing
an
awesome
job,
bringing
new
students
into
the
college,
they're
successful
in
their
classes.
Yet
our
enrollment
is
declining
because
they
are
not
completing
life
is
getting
in
the
way
they're
working
full
time.
O
Other
things
are
getting
in
the
way,
and
so
we
are
focusing
on
ways
that
we
can
help
them
complete
and
succeed,
because
it's
absolutely
critical
to
the
vibrancy
of
the
county
for
us
to
do
so
so
in
the
future
increase
in
the
graduation
rate
in
a
way
that
closes
the
equity
Gap
is
our
enrollment
strategy
of
the
future
and
that's
how
we
get
to
Oakland
80
by
30.,
and
so
I've
talked
a
lot
about
all
of
the
headwinds
that
are
facing
us
and
future-proofing
OCC.
So
how
do
we
do
that?
O
Well,
we've
got
a
plan
and
I
thought.
I
would
just
kind
of
walk
through
not
all
the
details
of
the
plan
with
you
this
evening.
All
of
that
is
on
our
website
with
frequently
asked
questions,
but
I
wanted
to
give
you
a
sense
of
what
we
have
in
mind
over
the
next
several
years.
We
will
be
focusing
on
improving
student.
O
The
student
experience
we're
going
to
work
very
hard
on
increasing
Student
Success,
we're
going
to
continue
to
be
responsive
to
our
community,
as
well
as
improve
our
financial
operations
to
maintain
fiscal
sustainability,
which
is
so
important
and
what
we
are
known
for
at
OCC
and
as
I
said.
I
won't
go
through
all
of
the
details
here,
but
I
want
to
talk
a
little
bit
about
the
student
experience.
To
give
you
an
idea
of
what
we
mean.
O
We
plan
on
improving
the
student
experience
by
making
Services
more
convenient
positive,
have
consistent
high
quality
amongst
all
of
our
campuses.
But
the
thing
is
is
that
we
need
to
very
early
on
help
students
find
their
passion
and
and
find
a
pathway
to
prosperity
and
then
have
our
counselors
and
have
the
entire
College
walk
with
those
students
every
step
of
the
way
to
help
them
through
to
completion.
O
One
of
the
things
that
we
need
to
do
on
our
campuses,
I
mentioned
with
them
being
a
vacant.
We
need
to
increase
the
vibrancy
of
our
campuses
by
reducing
their
footprint,
and
it's
really
all
about
consolidation
right.
Taking
our
our
student
services
finding
ways
to
create
hubs
in
our
libraries,
where
everything
is
centrally
located
and
easy
for
our
students
to
create
more
activity
and,
as
I
mentioned
throughout
all
of
our
facilities,
bring
people
together
in
fewer
spaces
to
create
that
vibrancy,
and
so
one
of
the
ways
that
we're
going
to
do
that.
O
We
made
a
big
announcement
in
the
fall
that
we
are
going
to
be
consolidating
our
Health
Sciences
programs
right
now,
they're
located
at
Southfield
as
well
as
Highland
Lakes,
we're
going
to
be
consolidating
those
to
one
state-of-the-art,
newly
renovated
location
at
our
Orchard
Ridge
Farmington,
Hills
campus.
We
anticipate
that
that
will
be
done
fall
of
2025.,
but
when
we
do
that
we
are
going
to
be
leaving
a
pretty
large
vacancy
at
our
Highland
Lakes
campus.
O
There
really
will
be
very
very
few
students
left,
and
so
we
had
to
make
a
very
difficult
decision
to
close
that
campus.
Once
we
make
that
move
and
sell
our
Highland
Lakes
campus,
we
don't
anticipate
that
that's
going
to
happen
until
2025
once,
although
the
construction
is
done,
but
we
felt
it
necessary
to
come
out
really
early
on.
O
Almost
three
years
in
advance
for
a
few
reasons,
one
we
wanted
to
give
our
employees
enough
notice
to
find
something
within
the
the
Community
College,
our
our
college,
and
to
prepare
and
to
you
know,
accommodate
their
families,
because
we're
messing
with
this
is
changing
people's
lives,
but
we
also
wanted
to
give
Waterford
Township
and
the
community
plenty
of
notice
so
that
we
can
work
with
them.
O
In
fact,
we're
talking
to
Gary
Wall
in
his
office
about
how
can
we
work
together
and
create
a
continue
to
ensure
that
this
property
gives
back
in
the
way
that
it
always
has
over
the
last
60
plus
years?
Actually
before
OCC
had
this
property?
You
may
not
know
this.
It
was
a
tuberculosis
Hospital
there
and
Christine.
You
remember,
and
it
was
a
tuberculosis
Hospital
there
and
eventually,
as
times
changed
that
was
no
longer
needed.
Occ
took
it
over
and
now
is
education
and
the
way
students
are
consuming.
O
We
also
made
the
difficult
decision
and
announcement
that
we're
going
to
be
moving
out
of
our
district
office
in
Bloomfield
Hills
again.
How
do
we
bring
same
number
of
people
together
in
fewer
spaces,
and
you
may
have
heard
me
talk
about
this
in
the
past.
I
really
felt
we
lose
touch
being
in
a
district
office.
I
I,
really
like
the
idea
of
migrating
to
our
campuses.
You've
heard
me
say
it
earlier:
we
have
plenty
of
space
and
so
we're
going.
O
We
are
in
the
process
right
now,
moving
out
of
our
district
office
and
moving
into
the
our
different
various
campus
locations
and
the
property
is
already
up
for
sale.
The
other
part
of
our
plan
going
forward
is
to
continue
to
invest
in
our
Key
Programs.
You've
heard
me
talk
a
lot
about
how
excited
we
are
about
our
brand
new
Culinary
Institute
that
we're
building
right
on
Main
Street
in
downtown
Royal
Oak
right
at
our
Royal
Oak
campus.
O
There's
a
picture
of
it
right
there
at
the
top
that
white
building
picture
three
floors:
lots
of
glass,
a
restaurant
all
up
at
the
top,
that's
not
a
fourth
floor.
That's
actually
an
Atrium!
You
can
see
the
angle
there
so
think
about
lots
of
light
coming
into
that
building
coming
into
the
the
restaurant.
So
we're
really
very
excited
about
that.
We
anticipate
that
that
will
be
open
fall
of
2025..
We
also
have
big
plans
to
expand
our
skilled
trades
and
Industrial
Technology
Building
at
our
Auburn
Hills
campus.
O
We
were
hoping
to
get
this
started
in
2024,
but
it's
being
delayed
we're
still
waiting
on
some
State
Appropriations,
we're
hoping
that
that
comes
in
this
year,
so
that
we
can
get
started
on
that
construction.
But
we've
also
announced
renovating
our
Crest
facility.
As
you
probably
know,
we
train
the
majority
of
Oakland
County's
First
Responders.
O
You've
heard
me
probably
say
in
the
past
very
proudly
that
if
you
call
9-1-1
chances
are
that
the
dispatcher
or
the
paramedic
or
the
police
officer
firefighter,
maybe
even
the
nurse
that
response
that
emergency
was
trained
right
here
at
OCC
and
maybe
even
at
our
our
Crest
facility.
It
needs
a
facelift,
and
so
what
we
plan
on
doing
is
building
an
indoor
tactical
training
facility.
O
So
we
could
do
active
shooter
training
and
things
like
that
that
we
aren't
able
to
do
right
now
outside
because
right
now
our
training
facility
is
outside
and
it's
really
a
kind
of
like
an
outdoor
Village.
But
we're
also
going
to
build
a
gun
range
expand
our
our
Crest
facility,
and
we
anticipate
that
construction
will
begin
on
that
in
2025..
The
county
is
a
big
partner,
particularly
the
sheriff's
office.
O
The
you
know,
while
the
world
is
changing
the
core
of
what
we
do,
Remains
the
Same,
it's
how
we
do
it
that
is
changing,
and
so
we're
going
to
continue
to
be
focused
on
Student
Success
and
continue
shifting
to
be
a
student-ready
college
and
I'd
like
to
conclude
by
saying,
if
you
liked
the
first
60
years,
what
do
you
see
the
next
60
years
with
this
plan,
and
so
none
of
this
would
be
possible
without
the
support
of
our
amazing
board.
O
In
fact,
as
chair
Woodward
mentioned,
our
board
chair,
Pam
Jackson
is
here
joining
us.
Community
is
very,
they
represent.
The
community
community
is
very
important
to
them
and
she
wanted
to
make
sure
that
she
was
representing
the
board
tonight.
So
Pam,
thank
you
for
being
here.
O
And
I'd
like
to
conclude
by
thanking
all
of
you
for
the
amazing
work
that
you
do
county-wide
as
well
as
all
of
the
work
that
you
are
doing
in
your
communities.
It
really
makes
a
difference
and
sometimes
I
think
it's
it.
It
goes
unappreciated
the
work
that
happens
at
the
local
level.
We
spend
a
lot
of
time
on
work,
that's
happening
at
the
national
level,
but
this
is
really
where
we
really
directly
impact
the
lives
of
so
many,
and
so
thank
you
very
much
for
the
opportunity
to
share
with
you
our
plan.
A
Make
some
exciting
news
on
the
horizon?
Do
you
want
to
recognize
the
rest
of
your
team?
I
mean
and
Eunice
I
know
many
of
us
know
because
of
our
government
Affairs
stuff,
and
maybe
I
mean
it's.
Usually
we
call
Eunice
and
and
and
figure
out,
new
Partnerships,
but
I
mean
for
those
who
might
not
know.
We've
got
some
new
members
on
the
board
here.
Yep
well,.
O
We
have
two
well,
we
have
a
brand
new
Vice
Chancellor
of
external
Affairs
Christina
AR,
and
this
is
actually
her
she's
into
her
second
week
and
I
can
tell
you
that
we've
proudly
stole
her
from
Macomb
Community
College,
so
we've
got
another
excellent
Macomb,
County
person
coming
and
so
we're
really
blessed
to
have
her
as
as
well
as
I
mentioned
Pam
Jackson's.
O
Here
as
our
board
chair
and
Eunice
Jeffries,
who
I
think
you
most
of
you
probably
all
know
who
is
our
director
of
government
community
relations
appreciate
them
spending
their
time
this
evening
in
their
support
of
OCC
right.
A
Anyone
has
some
questions
for
the
chancellor,
okay,
we'll
start
with
commissioner
Powell
and
then.
P
You
and
you
you
I
I,
you
may
have
referenced
this,
but
what
are
some
of
the
plans
for
the
real
estate
for
the
other
buildings?
Do
y'all
have
any
idea
of
what
you're
planning
to
do?
Are
you
just
looking
for
buyers
or
investors
to
try
to
pick
them
up.
O
So
right
now
we
have
made
the
announcement
that
our
district
office
is
up
for
sale
and
and
so
we're
we're.
You
know
we
have
people
coming
through
on
a
weekly
basis,
taking
a
look
at
that
developers,
others
in
2025.
We
anticipate
that
we'll
be
moving
out
of
Highland
Lakes,
and
so
that
will
be
going
up
for
sale.
O
It's
not
up
for
so
yet
because
we
want
to
spend
some
time
talking
to
Waterford
Township
in
the
community
and
and
see
if
we
can
work
together,
as
I
mentioned
earlier
on
on
what
may
go
in
there
and
then
we
do
have
some
vacant
land
I
did
mention
at
our
Southfield
Campus
that
we
are
not
using
and
that's
been
up
for
sale
for
about
a
year
or
so
Auburn
Hills
there's
a
lot.
We
have
a
lot
of
programming
in
Auburn
Hills,
no
plans
on
on
making
any
changes
there
from
a
a
land
perspective.
Yeah.
P
O
Yeah
there's,
so
it
really
kind
of
goes
back
to
my
point.
We
still
have
a
lot
of
students,
just
50
of
them
aren't
coming
to
the
campus.
Q
You
thanks
our
Chancellor
I
should
say
I,
guess,
Pete's
good,
appreciate
you
coming
out
and
just
want
to
commend
you
for
the
forward-looking
vision
to
make
sure
that
you
don't
become
obsolete.
A
lot
of
companies
and
organizations.
Don't
do
that
and
ultimately
they
become
dinosaurs.
So
just
commend
you
and
your
team.
It's
it's
very
good.
Your
timing
is
also
very
good
because
we're
anticipating
introducing
a
resolution
tonight
to
try
to
make
progress
relative
to
a
new
training
center
for
the
sheriff
around
active
Shooters
and
all
the
things
that
are
necessary
today.
Q
Our
facilities
are
not
act.
You
know
adequate
for
the
needs
of
today
and
you
know
we
need
to
be
wise
as
well.
Maybe
there's
an
opportunity
to
have
a
public
public
partnership
and
Advance
what
you're
trying
to
do
faster
through
joint
funding.
Q
You
know
why
build
one
through
your
independent
efforts
and
our
independent
efforts.
Perhaps
we
do
it
together,
save
money,
do
it
faster,
get
it
done
and
utilize
it
in
a
way
that
maximizes
capacity?
So,
let's
put
that
one
in
the
put
a
pin
in
it,
but
let's,
let's
not
let
it
sit
too
long
like
let's
make
that
happen.
Yeah.
O
R
Commissioner
Miller
thank
you
chairman.
Thank
you.
Chancellor
I,
just
I
I
was
I'd
never
like
to
see
a
school
close
I
was
on
the
Farmington
Hills
parks
and
recs
commission
when
they'd
make
the
decision
to
close
Harrison,
but
it
turned
into
a
nice,
Community
Center.
So
there's
potential
for
the
the
other
location
that
you're
closing
but
I
do
appreciate
because
I
drive
through
there.
R
Often
it's
right,
like
literally
probably
a
minute
and
five
seconds
from
my
house,
the
farmers
and
Hills
location
and
all
like
the
cars
were
there
and
now
they're
gone
and
I
appreciate
that
back
because
it's
a
nice
location,
I
like
to
see
it
Lively
again,
it
is
actually
growing.
You
see
more
people
there
more
interaction.
So
it's
really
nice.
O
Yeah
and
that's
the
plan,
we
have
beautiful
properties,
beautiful
campuses
and
we
just
want
to
keep
them
vibrant
by.
O
More
people
together
well.
A
Thank
you,
commissioner
wiper.
Oh
I'm,
sorry
any
other
commissioner
Jackson.
G
Thank
you,
Chancellor
I
just
wanted
to
I'm
confused
about
something
because
over
the
past
several
years,
four-year
College
I've
been
hearing
that
four-year
College
registrations
have
gone
down
and
community
colleges
have
gone
up
because
of
the
affordability
of
community
colleges
versus
traditional
four-year
colleges.
G
Can
you
speak
to
that?
Is
that
just
because
you're
losing
students
as
well?
Is
that?
Because
there
are
not
as
many
young
people,
then
you
really
need
to
focus
more
on
the
adult
learner
or
retraining.
Folks,
like
the
old
Dino
use,
the
word
dinosaur
might
use
the
word
dinosaur
or
helping
the
dinosaurs
or
technosaurus
become
computer
literate
and
things
like
that
I.
Just
just
what
do
you
see
as
far
as
trends.
O
So
I
I
would
say
that
actually
higher
ed,
so
both
community
colleges
and
universities
have
seen
declines
in
enrollment
over
the
years
and
I,
but
I
do
I'm
optimistic
I
believe
that
there
is
an
opportunity
for
growth
and
I.
You
know
I
really
hesitate
to
even
say
growth
to
me.
It's
about
Oakland
80
by
30..
How
do
we?
O
How
do
we
train
more
people?
How
do
we
help
the
community
obtain
more
degrees,
credentials,
skills
and
I?
Think
there's
an
opportunity
with
the
adult,
Learners
I
think
we
have
to
reach
deeper
I,
always
say
reach
deeper
into
our
community
reach
those
that
do
not
see
themselves
in
higher
ed.
They
don't
think
it's
possible
for
them,
and
so
we
need
to
do
a
better
job
of
that
and
we
have
plans
right
now
in
place
to
not
only
train
more
workers
and
adult
workers.
O
So
you
have
this
state
program,
such
as
a
mission
could
reconnect
where
workers
right
now,
25
or
older
I-
think
that's
going
to
be
moving
to
21
years
of
age
and
older
have
free
Community,
College
tuition,
so
we're
working
really
hard
our
recruiters
to
get
the
word
out
to
the
adult
community
as
well
as
businesses.
Many
businesses
can
help
us
spread
the
word
to
their
own
employees,
about
this
amazing
opportunity
to
have
free
education,
but
there's
also
opportunities
here
for
Education
when
you
are
younger
than
25
years
old
right.
O
So
there
are
Pell
Grants,
there's
so
many
scholarships
available,
but
but
there's
also
dual
enrollment
I
really
think
that
there's
an
opportunity
to
work
with
our
K-12
Partners
to
have
students
in
high
school,
take
Community,
College
classes
and
I
think
it's
backwards.
The
way
we
do
it
now,
where
you
graduate
from
high
school,
and
then
we
try
to
convince
you
that
you
should
go
to
college
I
think
we
have
you
take
college
classes
while
you're
in
high
school,
so
that
you
see
that
you
can
do
this.
O
You
see
that
you
can
be
successful
and
you're
already
a
student
right.
We're
already
working
with
you,
it's
it.
What
I've
always
said
is
when
you,
when
you
graduate
from
high
school,
you
should
have
to
opt
out
of
going
to
OCC.
It
should
be
automatic
and
people
ask
me
what
does
that
mean?
It
really
should
be
like
when
you
go
from
middle
school
to
high
school
at
a
public,
Public
District
right,
you
can
go
to
a
private
high
school,
but
you
have
to
do
a
little
work
right.
O
The
automatic
thing
is,
you
are
going
to
your
local
high
school.
It
should
just
automatically
happen,
and
so
we
actually
received
six
million
dollar
Grant
from
the
Wilson
and
Balmer
Foundation.
To
help
and
part
of
that,
Grant
is
to
work
with
the
K-12
Partners
to
create
that
seamless,
Continuum
that
I'm
talking
about
and
expand
our
dual
enrollment.
So
I'm
hopeful
that
next
year,
I'll
be
able
to
give
you
an
update
on
that
amazing
work
that
we're
doing.
G
A
Thank
you,
commissioner.
Johnson.
S
Thank
you
very
much,
Mr
chair
hi.
It's
a
real
pleasure
to
have
you
here,
I'm
a
new
face
as
well
I'm
a
brand
new
accounting
commissioner
here
so
I
actually
represent
all
of
Auburn
Hills
at
about
two-thirds
of
Rochester
Hills.
S
In
my
day,
job
I
also
spend
an
inordinate
time
focused
on
the
budgets
of
all
of
our
universities
and
our
community
colleges.
So
I,
we'll
we'll
talk
offline
about
more
of
that.
I
only
really
have
one
question
for
right
now
and
it's
about
the
six
year,
graduation
rate
and
I'm
I'm
glad
you
have
the
six
year
rate
rather
than
two
or
four,
but
it
is
just
13
and
I'm
wondering
what
what
is
the
OCC
losing
students
to?
S
Is
it
losing
them
to
to
jobs,
to
universities,
to
other
things,
I'll,
let
you
yeah.
O
So,
where
we're
losing
students
is
I
always
say,
life
happens
to
them.
So
over
80
percent
of
our
students
are
working
full-time,
going
to
school
part-time.
They
may
have
kids,
they
may
be
a
single
mom
with
three
kids
working
full-time
they're,
always
one
reason
away
that
they're,
always
one
excuse
a
way
to
stop
going
to
school
and
going
to
schools
a
lot
you
know
studying
when
you
have
all
of
that,
and
so
many
of
our
students-
and
this
is
where
I
think
it's
a
little
confusing
for
people.
O
Many
of
our
students
are
actually
going
to
OCC
for
free
because
of
all
of
the
different
programs
that
are
available
yet
they're,
not
completing,
because
the
financial
hurdle
is
just
one
hurdle,
it's
a
big
one,
but
it's
all
of
the
other
things
and
that
get
in
the
way,
and
so
the
other
part
of
that
six
million
dollar
grant.
That
I
mentioned
that
we
have
will
allow
us
to
Pilot
some
really
Innovative
programs,
where
we
hire
I,
say
coaches
and
personal
trainers.
O
If
you
will
people
that
have
a
caseload
that
are
going
to
just
stay
with
those
students,
give
them
a
call,
hey
I
noticed
you
haven't
graduated,
yet
hey
I
notice,
your
grades
are
slipping
a
little
bit,
hey
I,
noticed
I
noticed
you
didn't
make
it
to
class.
Oh,
you
have
a
you
you're
having
trouble
finding
food
you're
having
trouble
with
Transportation.
There
are
these
County
programs
that
are
available
to
you.
Sometimes
they
just
don't
know
that
all
of
these
resources
are
out
there,
and
so
they
need
a
coach.
O
They
need
somebody
to
to
encourage
them
along
the
way
and
help
them
with
the
problems
that
they
face.
Many
of
them
do
not
have
the
the
support
structure
at
home
to
help
them.
I
always
think
about
my
own
kids
right.
So
things
happen,
my
both
my
kids
well,
one
graduated
from
college.
One
is
in
college
and
things
happen,
and
it's
me
and
my
wife
getting
on
them
saying
you're
doing
what
you
know.
You
need
to
do
this,
we're
guiding
them.
O
Some
people
don't
have
that
and
they
need
that
personal
coach
and
that's
what
I
think
community
colleges
need
to
do.
We
need
to
meet
people
where
they
are,
and
higher
ed
in
the
past
really
hasn't
thought
that
way.
It
was
about
access
and
not
success
and
things
are
changing.
It's
all
about.
You
know.
O
Access
is
important,
but
there
are
a
lot
of
people
have
access
that
just
aren't
seeing
success,
we've
got
to
change
it,
and
so
essentially,
life
gets
in
the
way
for
them
and
we
need
to
help
them
with
all
those
wraparound
Services
as
we
refer
to
them.
As
thank
you.
Hopefully
that
answers
your
question.
Yeah
thank.
A
You
any
other
questions
from
commissioners.
Well,
thank
you.
Chancellor
I
think
our
partnership
with
Oakland
80
I
mean
yourself
and
your
team
I
mean
OCC.
Is
a
critical
piece
of
I
mean
getting
80
percent
of
our
Workforce
with
post-high
school
education.
It's
not
the
only
Avenue,
but
you
guys
you
play
obviously
a
very
critical
role
in
doing
that
and
our
Navigators
to
work
with
students
and
people
to
get
those
skills.
A
A
B
Mr
chair
dated
February
16
2023,
dear
chairman
Woodward,
pursuant
to
Oakland
County
Board
of
Commissioners
miscellaneous
resolution
number
14231,
which
authorizes
the
treasurer
of
the
equalization
division,
Economic
Development
and
Corporation
Council
to
designate
an
alternate
to
the
tax
increment
financing,
District
review
policy
ad
hack,
Review
Committee
I
am
ready
to
inform
you
that
Terry
Schultz
chief
of
Equalization
will
serve
in
this
alternate
capacity.
I
believe
Mr
Schultz
will
be
an
invaluable
asset
to
the
committee.
I
will
serve
as
the
representative
from
the
equalization
division
on
the
Tiff
committee.
B
A
Excellent,
can
we
get
a
motion
to
receive
the
communication
that
the
presentation
from
OCC,
as
well
as
the
appointment
to
the
tax
increment
Finance
District,
moved
by
commissioner
long
second
by
commissioner
gingel,
any
discussion
seeing
none
all
in
favor
of
receiving
the
communication
say
aye
aye,
aye
opposed,
say,
nay,
let
the
record
reflect
that
the
communications
have
been
received
unanimously.
A
This
will
move
us
now
to
public
comment.
This
is
the
first
public
comment
of
tonight's
meeting.
If
there's
anyone
here
from
the
public
that
would
like
to
address
the
board
on
items
on
the
agenda,
I,
don't
think
anyone
signed
up
and
I
don't
see
any
hands.
So
I
will
declare
the
first
public
comment.
Close
I'll
move
as
the
reports
of
standing
committees
and
first
up
is
the
consent,
agenda
and
I'll
move.
A
If
we
can
move
by
commissioner
Loop
second
to
bike
commissioner
Joliet
to
to
move
the
consent
agenda,
any
discussion
on
any
of
the
items
that
went
through
the
standing
committees
last
week
see
none
Mr
clerk.
Will
you
please
prompt
the
vote
to
vote
on
approving
the
consent
agenda.
A
A
L
H
A
F
Behind
your
Amendment,
thank
you,
Mr
chair,
I'm,
just
looking
to
strike
the
second
sentence
of
3A,
which
was
the
board
Vice
chair,
shall
also
be
ex-officio.
Voting.
Member
of
all
standing
and
ad
hoc
Committees
of
the
board
I
feel
it
is
either
redundant
or
or
overreach
by
having
both
you
and
the
vice
chair
being
able
to
see
it
sit
on
committees
and
vote
at
the
same
time.
Okay,
thank.
Q
I
just
had
a
question
on
the
sentence:
that's
at
hand
it's
under
Section
3A,
which
is
a
section
that's
talking
about
in
the
absence
of
the
board
chair,
and
it
says
in
the
absence
of
the
board
chair,
the
board
Vice
chair
shall
preside
and
be
vested
with
all
powers.
The
board
Vice
chair
shall
also
be
an
ex-official
voting
member
of
all
standing
committees,
I'm,
assuming
that
that
sentence
only
applies
in
the
absence
of
the
chair,
which
is
why
it's
in
subsection
3A.
Q
A
A
If
there's
any
further
discussion,
I'll
just
speak,
I
would
encourage
Commissioners
to
oppose
this.
I
mean
I
think
it's
necessary
to
be
able
to
continue
the
work.
It
has
worked
fine
over
the
last
four
years
and
I
think
it's
necessary
to
ensure
the
the
business
can
get
to
the
board
floor.
Ultimately,
the
the
full
Board
of
commissioner
votes
on
things,
and
so
I
will
be
voting
no
on
this
amendment.
J
A
J
A
Were
in
majority,
I
would
argue
differently,
but
it
this
has
been
the
practice.
That's
actually
been
in
place
the
last
four
years
and
it's
worked.
Fine.
M
K
I
just
wanted
to
tell
some
of
the
newer
Commissioners
here
that
when
it
was
10
Democrats
to
11
Republicans,
we
just
had
the
chairperson
as
well,
not
the
vice
chair,
also
just
for
history,
you
know,
so
that's
why
I
would
support
the
chairperson
only,
but
I
do
not
support
the
vice
chair.
Also.
A
B
A
Q
Thank
you,
Mr,
chair,
I,
just
want
to
make
the
point
that
I
do
not
believe
that
the
wording
that's
contained
in
the
board
rules
as
it
stands,
provides
for
the
vice
chair
to
be
an
ex-official
voting
member.
If
the
chair
is
present
because
it
is
contained
in
the
section
that
is
talking
about
the
absence
of
the
board
chair,
so
it's
my
perspective.
Q
A
Okay,
thank
you.
Mr
chair,
see
no
further
business
I
mean
the
business
of
Lago
is
complete
and
that
will
move
us
to
do
new
and
miscellaneous
business
and
I
believe
that
there
are
a
few
resolutions
for
introduction.
So
I
will
call
on
commissioner
spizz
thank.
F
A
F
Q
Thank
you.
Mr
chair
I'd,
like
to
introduce
a
resolution.
Appropriating
American
Rescue
plan
act,
local
fiscal
recovery,
funds
for
Oakland,
County,
Sheriff's,
Office,
new
training
and
Emergency
Operations
Center,
something
that's
desperately
needed
and
I'll
refer
to
public
health
and
safety
and
finance
referred
without.
A
E
I
just
want
to
staff
for
the
great
job
they
did
yesterday
running
the
youth
and
government
program
and
what
a
terrific
program
that
is,
we
had
about
I,
don't
know,
75
students
would
have
been
my
guests
and
it
was
really
a
fun
event.
Those
of
you
who
didn't
make
it
try
next
year,
commissioner
weipert
commissioner
Woodward
and
I
stood
here
and
took
questions,
and
the
first
question
was:
how
do
we
run
for
office
because
you
all
look
pretty
old?
E
A
Next
time,
I
show
up
to
Youth
in
government
I'm
shaving
yeah,
no
I
mean
again
kudos
to
the
staff.
I
think
it
was.
It
was
incredible.
A
I
also
want
to
make
sure
that
it's
on
people's
radar,
you
should
have
received
an
email
regarding
the
state
of
the
county
address
on
March
14th,
as
as
it's
been
in
practice
in
the
past,
commissioner
spizz
and
myself
will
be
inviting
everyone
to
a
pre-reception,
so
look
out
for
the
email
of
where
that
is
I'd,
be
able
I
believe
a
location
has
been
secured
near
the
where
the
events
happening.
A
So
look
for
that
and
we'll
send
out
more
reminders,
I
hope
to
see
everyone
who
can
be
there
at
the
state
of
the
county
on
March
14th.
Commissioner
Miller.
R
Yes,
since
nobody
brought
it
up,
I
just
want
to
say
today
is
the
second
day
of
women's
History
Month.
P
A
Yes
and
like
we
did
with
the
black
excellence
awards,
we
will
be
having
recognition
of
incredible.
Are
we
women
doing
great
work
around
this
County
at
our
board
meeting
at
the
end
of
this
month,.
A
You
any
further
announcements
see
none.
This
will
bring
us
to
our
second
public
comment.
This
is
the
opportunity
for
any
member
to
speak
on
on
any
matter.
That
was
I
mean
on
any
topic.
Please
keep
comments.
The
three
minutes
and
I
think
we've
got
one
person
who's,
no
stranger
to
us,
Ms
hat.
So
if
you
want
to
come
to
the
the
podium
and
welcome,
as
always,.
T
T
When
I
first
came,
we
were
into
the
Simca
bus
issue,
but
back
before
that,
Penny
Lube
gave
me
kindly
some
information
from
the
June
23rd
meeting.
Were
you,
you
see
I'll,
probably
cry
the.
C
American
Rescue
Planet
money
for
the
children
I
brought
something
for
Penny
tonight
to
share
with
you,
because
it
was
awesome
if
we
could
teach
those
kids
what
to
do
when
somebody
goes
crazy
with
a
gun,
that's
going
to
be
the
best
thing
we
could
do,
and
it
sounds
like
from
an
article
that
we're
doing
it.
Thank
you
all
very
much
for
giving
the
school
some
money.
