A
A
B
A
I
know:
do
we
have
any
anybody
to
speak
on
this
or
is
commissioner
Lubes
here
is.
H
Her
problem,
sorry,
that
I'm
virtual
today,
but
did
provide
a
number
of
backup
information
on
the
Troy
nature.
Society's
educational
programming
and
the
ten
thousand
dollar
request
helped
measure
that
this
will
help
them
continue
the
educational
programs,
just
as
an
example,
they
have
a
number
of
different
walking
with
naturalists
and
Owl
enhancers
and
a
Little
Acorn
program
that
they
run
out
of
the
Detroit
Nature
Center,
and
so
this
will
allow
them
to
continue
that
program
through
resources
for
around
cleaning
up
special
projects
and
even
programs
change.
H
So
if
there's
any
questions
that
I
can
certainly
answer,
them
has
been
head
core
across.
F
I'm
in
support
of
all
of
this,
you
know
I
think
I'm.
Having
a
cyber
conversation,
you
know,
I
think
the.
What
commissioner
is
trying
to
do
is
is
a
great
it's.
A
great
thing:
I
just
want
to
be
careful
and
I
want
to
go
on
record,
because
I
mentioned
this
before.
Is
that
I
want
to
try
to
make
sure
that
as
a
board,
we
have
some
accountability?
Maybe
that's
the
right
word
to
figure
out
what
is
going
here.
F
The
shorts
have
a
bit
on
the
board.
I
think
this
may
be
the
I'm
just
guessing.
Fourth,
fifth.
Sixth,
you
know
item
from
special
projects
that
has
gone
to
this
District
and
I'd.
Be
remiss
if
I
didn't
comment
and
I
I,
don't
know
that
it's
being
equitably,
divided
and
I
again
would
wear
this
board
to
try
to
figure
out.
We
need
some
way
to
keep
track
of.
What's
going
on.
A
Okay,
so
what
I
might
suggest
based
on
that
comment
and
we've
talked
about
this
before-
is
if
my
keys
and
the
rest
of
the
organization
could
take
a
look
at
what
our
special
project
requirements
are,
which
we
all
agree,
are
kind
of
loose
and
take
another
crack
at
tightening
them
up
and
answer
some
of
the
questions
about
you
know
who
does
this
serve
and
that
sort
of
thing
so
that
you
know
like
commissioner
Lubes?
A
This
is
her
district,
and
this
is
something
in
Troy,
but
we've
also
done
something
for
Clawson
in
her
district
and
so
on,
which
I
don't
object
to
it's.
Just
elevating
it
nobody's
been
denied
this
year,
I,
don't
think
and,
and
I
do
want
to
make
the
points
that
this
is
a
way.
First
of
all,
these
are
supposed
to
be
typically
one-time
deals
and
they're
a
way
for
each
commissioner
to
do
something
special
within
their
district
and
represent
the
county
to
The
District
in
a
way
that
is
positive.
A
D
Is
why
well
it's
good
I
agree
with
that
yeah.
Thank
you,
Roman
that
we
probably
should
have
some
consistency
and
some
policy
and
some
tracking.
A
Welcome,
commissioner,
we
have
some,
but
it's
relatively
loose
in
terms
of
how
we
select
our
projects
and
how
much
money
is
allocated
to
each
one
and
so
on
so
yeah
I
think
tightening
this
process
up
is
a
good
idea,
all
right
with
that.
If
nobody
has
any
other
comments
on
this
particular
one,
can
we
prompt
the
vote.
A
A
F
A
You
want
to
tell
us
about
this.
We.
E
I
Yeah
yeah,
so
first
of
all,
I
was
trying
to
figure
out
which
side
was
a
good
sign
for
me
this
morning,
going
to
think
I'm,
Maya
I
think
I'm
all
right
here,
it's
as
good
as
any.
We
have
a
recently
completed
pathway
in
the
city
of
Wixom.
That
was
an
add-on
to
the
Michigan
Air,
larger
Michigan
Airline
trail
that
runs
through
our
community
and
many
other
communities,
part
of
the
Great
Lake
to
Lake
Trail.
We've
decided
a
while
back
that
we'd
like
to
add
a
loop
around
City
Hall,
the
city
hall
complex.
I
We
did
that
we
had
funding
that
we
we
put
together
with
cdbg
with
funding
from
the
cities
funding
from
the
Downtown
Development
Authority,
because
it's
in
the
Downtown
Development
Authority
area.
We
recently
completed
that
project.
It's
about
.48
miles
long
and
it
loops
around
the
Community
Center
Library
Police
Department
City
Hall,
the
fountain,
that's
in
the
center
between
those
two
sets
of
buildings,
we're
very
proud
of
it.
I
It's
very
popular
amenity,
it's
something
that
gets
a
good
amount
of
use
and
we're
looking
to
make
it
even
more
popular
and
make
more
reasons
for
people
to
come.
Downtown
and
to
get
into
physical
activity
participate
with
economic
development
there
by
bringing
people
to
the
downtown
area,
and
we
also
have
a
holiday
tree
lighting
event
that
we
have
every
year,
that's
been
around
for
a
few
years
and
gets
bigger
every
year.
There's
lots
of
things
involved:
beer
tent
a
band
face,
painting
performances
by
local
high
school
band,
the
actual
tree
lighting.
I
I
want
to
thank
commissioner
Rahman
for
for
coming
to
me
and
informing
me
of
this
funding
opportunity
and
I
thank
the
commission
for
establishing
in
the
first
place,
but
when
he
came
to
me
and
asked
me
about
that,
that
was
one
of
the
first
things
that
I
thought
of
and
discussed
with.
I
The
commissioner
is
is
an
add-on
to
that
downtown
Dazzle
or
that
tree
lighting
event,
which
is
going
to
basically
add
additional
lighting
attractions
to
the
event,
giving
people
more
reason
to
come
downtown,
giving
people
more
reason
to
stay
active
during
winter
months
when
there's
something
to
see
along
the
pathway
or
as
part
of
the
display
along
Pontiac
Trail.
I
So
that's
the
Genesis
of
this
and
that's
what
we're
asking
for
funding
on
to
to
add
additional
Whiting
attractions
to
the
downtown
for
those
reasons
to
increase
physical
activity
with
residents
to
increase
our
community
engagement
with
a
with
an
existing
event
as
well,
well,
popular
already,
but
can
be
made
better
and
then
also
Economic
Development,
to
try
to
bring
people
downtown
and
give
them
a
reason
to
continue
to
support
businesses
in
downtown
Wixom.
So
that's
the
the
purpose
of
it.
I
We
would
be
obtaining
lighting
attractions
that
would
would
go
in
that
area.
We
have
a
local
company,
Blue
Water
Technologies,
that's
on
Beck
Road.
That
participates
with
the
Glenmore
Trail
Lighting
Event
we've
had
interactions
with
them
and
talked
about
what
they
could
bring
to
the
table.
Unfortunately,
I
told
them
that
you
can
take
your
time
with
that.
We're
not
going
to
have
anything
come
forward
on
this,
and
then
commissioner
Ramen
and
the
finance
committee
exceeded
my
expectations
and
got
this
put
together.
Sooner
than
I
had
anticipated.
A
J
F
A
Anybody
else
to
commissioner
Hoffman's
Point.
As
long
as
we
have
money
to
do
this
kind
of
thing,
we
will
do
it,
you
know
it's
we
want
to
have.
We
were
just
talking
before
the
meeting.
Nobody
knows
what
a
county,
commissioner
is
right.
We
want
the
County's
presence
to
be
known
in
all
of
our
local
communities,
and
these
are
the
kinds
of
things
that
we
we
really
like
to
be
part
of
and
highlight,
because
it
is
community
building,
I
liked
hearing
you
say
that
blue
water,
you
want
to
do
a
public-private
partnership
with
them.
A
On
all
of
this,
we
look
for
that
too,
and
these
kinds
of
projects
we
don't
want
to
be
the
only
funder.
We
want
to
help
you
do
what
you
want
to
do,
but
we
like,
seeing
that
there
are
other
groups
who
have
come
to
the
table
for
something
like
this.
So
this
is
exactly
what
we're
looking
for
these
kinds
of
projects
to
be
so
I
see
a
lot
of
nodding
heads
among
the
users
so
with
that,
if
nobody
has
any
other
questions,
I
will
go
ahead
and
ask
for
the
vote
to
be
practical.
A
K
Good
morning,
opportunity,
I
guess
introduce
myself
to
some
of
you,
but
so
I'm
about
to
Davenport
about
the
the
new
newish
Chief
Information
officer,
so
run
it
for
the
county.
My
team
told
me
I
need
to
stop
saying
that
I'm
new,
but
I'm
in
week,
five,
they
said
in
week
six.
You
can't
say
that
take
advantage
of
the
fact
that
I
still
can
so
the
pleasure
to
be
here.
I've
got
a
couple
of
couple
of
things.
K
My
team
has
briefed
me
on
this,
but
I
lack
some
of
the
historical
knowledge
so
fill
in
any
blanks.
So
the
first
piece
I
think,
is
the
the
shared
service
agreements
with
the
other
public
bodies.
So
we've
got
25
of
these
agreements.
It's
been
going
through
to
see
which
ones
expire
in
2023
I
think
this
is
a
process
issue
where
they
need
to
be
reviewed,
and
then
they
have
to
be
signed
off
on
a
periodic
basis.
K
So
these
are
things
like
our
government
government
cloud
service
climbus,
which
is
the
law
enforcement
piece
across
the
the
network
connectivity
agreement.
So
we've
got
a
lot
of
different
cities
and
townships
that
we
provide
services
too
I.
Don't
think
there's
anything
new
in
this
list,
it's
mostly
just
an
extension
of
the
things
that
we
have
been
doing.
L
Thank
you
amongst
all
of
the
agreements.
Does
it
ever
speak
about
in
terms
of
of
time,
just
the
base
commitment
that
will
be
up
and
running
I.
K
L
And
then
I'm
very
acutely
concerned
and
sensitive
to
cyber
security,
and
just
you
know,
updates
and
patching
and
all
that
kind
of
stuff
making
sure
that
we
are
doing
the
best.
We
can
to
keep
people's
information
safe
and
secure.
K
We
are
I
mean
so
cyber
security
always
is
risky.
There
are
we're
doing
a
pretty
good
job
as
from
what
I've
seen
with
our
patching
to
get
our
vulnerability
vulnerabilities
reduced.
There
are
such
things
as
these
zero
day
exploits
so
they're
vulnerabilities
and
software.
Sometimes
the
hackers
know
before
we
are
notified
and
it
creates
a
window
of
exposure,
but
you
know
we
do.
We
do
have
some
defensive
depth.
K
I
think
that
we
we
have
an
opportunity
to
kind
of
strengthen
our
cyber
security
posture
here
on
the
county,
so
I've
been
I've,
been
working
with
with
our
chief
information
security
officer
with
some
ideas
about
you
know,
maybe
getting
some
more
tools
and
some
services,
but
in
general
I
think
our
outer
shell
is
pretty
solid.
Okay,.
L
J
A
Strange
assortment
of
communities
and
entities
you
got
a
community
college,
you
got
someplace
way
on
the
other
side
of
the
state.
I
don't
object
to
it,
necessarily
if
there's
a
solid
system
in
place,
which
evidently
there
must
be
I'm
interested
in
how
we
charge
these
folks.
How
do
we
make
sure
that
we're
getting
paid,
what
your
services
really
worth
and
how
does
that
relate
to
our
internal
Services
same
kind
of
the
way
it
charges?
Other
departments
has
always
seemed
complex
to
me
anyway,
me
as
well,
but
then
I'm,
not
crazy.
K
This
business
so
I
think
that
some
of
the
the
you
know
the
widespreadness
of
this
I
think
is
the
law
enforcement,
but
the
sheriff
you
know
doing
things
for
for
communities
that
don't
have
it
I
know
you
know
in
in
it
I
think
there's
a
small
part
of
our
data
center,
that's
hosting
something
for
our
local
Community
College,
you
know
are
the
are
the
rates
where
they
should
be
I
would
say,
probably
not
I.
K
Think
a
lot
of
this
has
been
in
place
for
a
long
time
and
I
think
because
we
tried
to
be
supportive
and
friendly
to
these
other
governments.
You
know
we
haven't
been
ratcheting
up
the
costs.
The
way
that
the
private
sector
has
so
I
would
say
we're,
probably
due
for
a
review
of
that,
but
at
the
same
time
I
think
we
need
to
be
sensitive
because
of
the
budget
cycles
for
these
other
communities.
You
know
if
we,
if
we
start
moving
too
quickly,
then
I
think
we
get
in
a
position
where
we
can.
K
You
know
they
won't
be
able
to
make
the
payments
we
we
won't
be
able
to
support
them,
and
then
the
service
goes.
Undone,
so
this
is
probably
more
of
a
longer
term
thing
and
it
probably
would
rise
to
the
level
of
the
board
to
kind
of
decide
the
pace
of
such
a
such
a
thing.
But
I
I
think
that
we
are
maybe
not
at
Market
rates.
K
K
So,
as
I'm
sure
many
of
you
are
aware,
the
workday
system
within
last
year
was
live.
So
it's
you
know,
HR
finances,
there's
a
learning,
module,
I,
think
we're
kind
of
in
the
stages
of
implementing
the
budgeting
module.
This
is
an
extension
of
the
services
and
support
So
to
make
sure
the
software
is
kept
up
to
date.
Now
this
is
hosted
externally
to
us.
So
it's
in
the
cloud
the
payments
go
toward
the
the
infrastructure,
the
networking
that's
needed
for
us
to
access
it
as
well.
K
As
the
you
know,
the
technical
support,
so
you
know
I
think
it's
it's
important
to
continue
the
maintenance
support
of
it.
Otherwise
we
won't
have
access
to
the
product.
Since
it
is
a
you
know,
an
enterprise
resource
system
like
they
call
it
I
think
we've
got
something
like
69
different
things
that
are
interfacing
to
it.
K
Replacing
it
probably
is
not
something
that
we
should.
You
know
go
into
lightly
and
now
I
do
think
that
you
know,
as
technology
continues
to
evolve,
it's
worth
looking
at
this
again,
you
know
maybe
in
another
five
or
ten
years,
but
we
just
put
the
system
in
and
we
want
to
make
sure
we're
extracting
the
value
from
it.
So
I
think
it
makes
sense
to
at
least
you
know
do
five
year
extension
on
the
support.
J
K
And
so
you
know
in
my
short
time
here,
yes,
but
I,
so
I
think
that
when
you
do
these
large
system
quotations,
there's
always
kind
of
a
mixture
of
we're
trying
to
integrate
existing
things
into
newer
things
and-
and
that
requires
some
transformation
of
kind
of
how
the
information
flows
there's
training
issues.
K
Usually
what
happens
is
that
it's
you
know
each
of
the
Departments.
That's
involved
kind
of
puts
a
few
people
on
this,
but
they
have
to
do
their
day,
jobs.
Sometimes
those
few
people,
you
know,
aren't
necessarily
spreading
the
word
back
to
the
department
about
how
the
new
thing
works,
and
so
you
have
a
mismatch
between
hey
here's,
the
new
software
with
the
best
practices
from
the
vendor,
and
does
it
really
fit
into
how
we
used
to
do
things
so
it's
I've,
never
I've,
never
really
seen
a
big
system.
K
Implementation
like
this
go
super
smooth,
there's
always
going
to
be
some
hiccups.
I
wasn't
I
wasn't
here,
so
I
can't
really
speak
to
the
specifics
of
it,
but
you
know
it's.
It's
working
and
I
think
we're
making
our
way
through
I
think
there's
some
there's
some
more
work
to
be
done,
but
you
know
it's
I've
seen
things
that
have
launched
and
then
had
significant
failures.
So
you
know
from
the
outside
looking
in
I
think
this
actually
is
working.
So
that's
you
know.
That's
that's
a
plus,
but
but
yeah.
K
O
I
would
add,
I
mean
I
I
agree
with
everything
that
Rod
just
said.
I
mean
I,
think
we're.
You
know.
We've
been
live
with
the
financial
side
of
the
system
for
a
year
now,
so
I
think
we're
moving
out
of
the
stabilization
period.
I
mean
you
know,
the
system
worked,
everybody
got
paid.
There
were
certainly
some
muscle.
You
know
some
some
bumps
along
the
road
but
I
think
we're
now
shifting
out
of
that
stabilization
period.
We
just
produced
our
first
financial
report.
O
You
know
out
of
the
system
we're
going
to
bring
you
a
budget.
That's
produced
out
of
the
system,
so
I
think
that'll
be
kind
of
the
end
of
the
stabilization
period
and
then
we're
moving.
You
know
into
the
optimization
and
continuous
Improvement
phase
of
you
know.
How
do
we
use
the
system
more
efficiently?
How
do
we,
you
know,
make
sure
our
business
processes
are
efficient?
How
how
do
we
make
sure
I
mean
there's
a
lot
more
power
for
the
non-financial
users?
O
You
know
in
the
county
so
for
a
department
director
and
we've
done
some
training
on
this,
but
there's
there's
more
training
to
be
done.
A
department
director
can
go
in
and
drill
down
on
their
budget.
You
know
anytime,
they
want
in
real
time.
You
know,
where's,
my
you
know
where's
my
spending
at
compared
to
a
12-month
Trend
and
can
drill
down
to
the
invoice
level
of
here's.
What
we're
spending
our
money
on.
So
you
know
that's
my
view.
In
terms
of
of
of
where
things
stand
and
where
we're
moving.
A
O
I
think
it's
a
full
five
years
yeah,
so
I
can
start
at
the
beginning.
You
know
it
is
a
five
percent
increase.
Frankly,
there
was
a
bit
of
a
negotiation
here
or
day
presented
us
with
what
the
percentage
increase
annually.
That
I'd
only
been
want
to
repeat
out
loud
and
working
with
10
Tice.
Before
Rob
got
here,
we
were
able
to
to
get
them
negotiated
down
to
the
five
percent,
which
is
you
know,
I
think
I'm,
learning
with
sort
of
Industry
standards.
O
For
you
know,
for
software
of
this
nature,
you
know
the
increase
in
the
first
year
is
larger.
We
have
been
playing
a
a
flat
fee
over
five
years,
so
there
was
like
a
calculation
of
of
an
inflationary
increase,
but
then
they
took
the
the
you
know
the
average
and
in
charge
just
to
fight
a
flat
fee.
We
said
well
going
forward
we'd
like
to
phase
those
increases
over
time.
O
So
it's
not
it's
not
such
a
big
hit
up
front
so
the
first
year
I
think
the
increase
is
about
370
000
and
then
the
five
percent
after
that
is
about
a
hundred
thousand
dollars
a
year
and
that
gets
split
up
between
the
three
budgets
for
for
fiscal
Services
purchasing
in
HR,
as
the
three
main
as
the
three
main
users
I
believe
it
is
a
full
five-year
agreement
which
we
needed
to
do
to
lock
in
the
pricing.
I
mean
as
Rod
alluded
to
you
know,
practically
speaking.
O
Unless
something
really
went
off
the
rails
with
workday,
we
are
kind
of
tied
at
the
hip.
You
know
once
you've
implemented
an
Erp
system,
that's
handling
all
your
HR
and
financial
operations
and
is
integrated
to
you
know
to
to
over
60
other
I.T
systems.
We
also
as
part
of
the
negotiation
were
able
to
obtain
and
they
contract
a
second
five-year
option.
So
this
is
just
an
option
on
our
side.
O
After
this
five
years
is
up,
you
know
we're
not
locked
into
it,
but
they
are,
and
the
pricing
would
be
tied
to
inflation,
Plus
I
think
a
percentage
point,
but
not
to
exceed
five
percent,
so
hopefully
that
would
be
lower
than
five
percent.
So
again
that
that'll
be
a
decision
for
you
know
for
the
county
and
for
all
of
you
or
or
or
or
or
whoever's
here
in
five
years
at
this
table
as
to
whether
or
not
to
exercise
that
option.
O
But
you
know
that
gives
us
a
good
option
that
we're
not
you
know
caught
in
this
position
of
having
it
having
to
negotiate
them
down
from
some
some
high
numbers.
So
I
think
that
addresses
all
your
questions.
Let
me
know
if
I
missed
something.
C
My
heart
about
how
right
I
wanted
to
kind
of
get
in
with
her
like
this.
A
L
L
Are
there
any
areas
of
the
Erp
system
that
need
some
enhancement
and
then
does
this
funding?
This
might
be
a
Kyle
question,
but
does
this?
No?
This
is
a
you
question.
Extend
this
funding
extension
assist
in
helping
to
optimize
the
system
so.
K
I
do
think
they've
baked
some
additional
training
into
the
into
the
new
the
new
budget
proposal,
which
is
always
useful
right.
So
people
need
to
be
able
to
learn
how
to
work
the
system
to
extract
the
maximum
value.
I
think
you
know,
as
a
user
of
workday,
my
interaction
with
it
has
been
fairly
limited,
but
it
is
web-based
it's
a
little
bit
unfair
because
MIT
so
I
I
figure
things
out,
but
it
does
seem
to
be
fairly
easy
to
use.
K
Most
of
my
interaction
so
far
is
but
type
Q3
vacation
approval
that
sort
of
thing
it
seems
to
be
working
well
for
that
I.
Think
overall,
workday
is
rated
highly
in
the
industry,
so
I
think
it's
a
market
leader.
They
have
a
lot
of
market
share,
so
at
least
until
the
you
know,
competitors
start
to
move
into
that
space.
I
think
we
have
a
good
solid
product,
so
I
yeah
I,
don't
I,
don't
have
any
complaints
so.
K
Those
are
not
work
day.
Yeah
so
workday
is
is
work
day
is
one
of
the
tiles
on
the.
K
K
A
Okay,
if
there's
no
other
questions
on
this
work
day
line
item
Let's
prompt
the
vote.
Q
Hi
everybody
I'm
Khadijah,
Walker
Bob's,
your
new
officer
for
Neighborhood,
Housing
and
Development
very
excited
to
be
here.
I
come
with
a
couple
decades
of
various
Human
Services
experienced
in
executive
leadership.
Some
the
range
is
housing
and
Oakland
County
for
youth,
who
are
at
risk.
Human
Services,
a
lot
of
CDC
initiatives,
child
welfare,
so
the
whole
wide
gamut
I'm
excited
to
jump
in
with
two
feet
and
do
some
great
things
here
in
Oakland,
County.
R
And
I
am
Kyle,
Hines
I
will
be
serving
as
the
housing
trust
fund
manager
very
excited
about.
This
I
know
that
I've
received
a
lot
of
feedback
that
there's
a
lot
of
excitement
on
that
side
of
the
table,
so
I'm
very
excited
to
do
that.
R
I
join
you
from
the
city
of
Dallas,
where
I
served
as
the
assistant
director
in
the
housing
and
neighborhood
revitalization
Department
any
unit
in
the
city
of
Dallas
that
was
funded
by
the
city
or
preserved
or
developed
or
financed
or
any
of
our
home
buyer
assistance
program
that
went
through
my
team
and
I
also
served
as
the
general
manager
of
the
Housing
Finance
Corporation
and
the
public
facility
Corporation
of
the
city
of
Dallas,
so
very
excited
to
jump
in
here
and
start
looking
at
the
Housing
Trust
Fund
and
working
to
provide
affordable
housing
throughout
Oakland
County
I.
R
A
little
background
about
me,
I
was
I,
was
a
resident
of
this
of
state
of
Michigan
born
and
raised
here,
moved
for
about
18
years
from
LA
to
Dallas,
but
now
I'm
back
home
with
a
with
a
six-month-old.
He
told
us
we
needed
to
get
back
near
our
family,
so
this
is
a
great
opportunity
wanted
to
move
back.
So
I'm
excited
to
work
like
I,
said
so
appreciate
your
confidence
and
assistance
and
support
as
we
move
forward.
P
P
So
the
request
in
front
of
you
is
a
request
for
up
to
four
hundred
thousand
dollars.
This
comes
from
a
550
tax
that
we
are
receiving
from
the
state
land
bank,
and
so
it
will
be
awarded
to
us
in
two
chunks
of
funding,
150
000
for
the
tax
year
2023
and
250
for
the
tax
year
2024..
This
is
to
be
used
directly
into
the
Housing
Trust
Fund.
It's
not
to
be
used
for
administrative
funds,
it'll
be
used
to
create
affordable
housing
as
part
of
the
Housing
Trust
Fund.
P
N
Okay,
commissioner
Powell
I
had
a
question
about
the
Housing
Trust.
Would
that
be
like
individual
contractors
and
stuff
to
try
to
apply
for
this,
or
is
this
more
bigger
companies
doing
bigger
commercial
type
setup
housing
projects
that
that
fund
is
to
focus
on.
R
From
what
I,
from
what
I've
gathered
and
what
I
from
the
reading
of
you
know,
the
discussion
and
debate
around
the
creation
of
the
Housing
Trust
Fund
I,
think
it's
focused
on
providing
more
rental
units
throughout
the
county
and
I
would
imagine
that
we
are
going
to
be
working
with
small
non-profits,
some
of
our
chotos
as
well.
R
We
only
get
a
certain
amount
of
funds
each
year
from
home,
choto
dollars
we'll
be
working
from
there,
hopefully
capacity
building
for
for
all
for
a
diverse
array
of
developers,
but
then
I
would
imagine
we'll
also
have
some
larger
for-profit,
affordable
housing,
mixed
income,
Workforce
housing
type
developers
that
we'll
be
partnering
with
all
of
the
projects.
R
R
Well,
definitely,
and
as
far
as
as
far
as
like
housing
commissions,
you
know
their
allocation
of
any
if
they
have
vouchers
or
anything
like
that,
we'll
be
able
to
apply
those
and
layer,
those
into
the
projects
that
we're
developing
and
we'll
be
just
another
source
of
resources
to
provide
that
entire
Capital
stack.
N
R
N
N
To
be
able
to
produce
some
more
housing
right
in
the
Pontiac
Housing
Commission
Fleet
of
housing,
they
have
so
okay.
Thank
you.
Okay,.
A
L
L
P
Actually,
this
is
not
my
level
of
expertise
here,
so
I
am
probably
gonna
have
to
push
this
off
and
talk
to
one
of
our
environmental
health
staff.
I
want
to
make
sure
I
give
you
the
right
information
and
the
most
accurate
information.
So
what
I
will
do
is
connect
back
with
them
this
afternoon
and
provide
some
some
updates
and
we'll
also
look
to
work
with
the
state
and
maybe
push
some
social
media
out
and
get
some
information
out.
So
people
are
more
important
about
it,
so
that'd
be
great.
I
will
take
that
on.
A
Next
up:
item
nine
under
legislative
affairs
and
government
operations
committee
item
9A
is
fiscal
years:
2020
to
23
and
24.
supplemental
collective
bargaining
agreement
for
employees
represented
by
the
UAW
Local
889
representing
Sheriff's
Office
non-supervisory
employees
moved
by
commissioner
Rahman,
supported
by
commissioner
Hoffman
I'd.
D
A
T
Thank
you,
Auburn
I
see
everyone
again.
My
name
is
Dan
platner
I'm,
our
chief
of
all
Labor
Relations
I'm,
for
you
here
today
for
a
motion
to
approve
a
few
UAW
supplements.
T
As
this
board
may
be
aware,
we
had
a
master
agreement
for
the
UAW
that
was
entered
entered
into
some
maybe
18
months
ago,
and
as
new
divisions
departments
choose
to
join
the
union,
they
are
executing
what
are
called
supplemental
agreements
which
are
sort
of
unique
in
idiosyncratic
to
those
particular
divisions
and
departments.
T
This
has
a
very
de
minimis
fiscal
impact
if,
at
all
on
on
our
budget,
the
the
appropriate
documentation,
I
believe
is
at
Pages
772
in
your
agenda
packet,
but
bottom
line.
Is
this
these
two
UAW
supplements
sort
of
outline
work
schedules
and
holiday
and
overtime,
as
well
as
some
alternative
work
schedule
Jewels
for
each
of
the
employees
working
within
the
Departments,
I
think
for
the
Sheriff's
Office
there's
approximately
14
employees
and
for
the
Department
of
Public
Communications,
it's
a
six
non-supervisory
and
then
two
supervisory
classifications.
T
So
it's
not
a
terrible
impact
on
much,
but
that's
that's
the
gist
of
it
and
I'm.
Happy
to
hear
any
questions
that
you
may
have:
okay,.
L
Charles,
it's
actually
to
the
Commissioners
and
the
senior
for
seasoned
Commissioners
is
I
feel
like
we
get
bargaining
unit
updates
and
resolutions,
and
things
like
that.
But
rarely
do
I
feel
like
conversation,
that's
not
like
in
the
open
meeting
setting
so
like
maybe
one
or
I
don't
know
if
you
and
your
your
Vice
chair
minority
Vice
chair
meets
with
these
folks
to
kind
of
get
more
of
the.
L
You
know
the
details
that
may
not
be
so
suitable
for
the
public
meeting
space,
but
I
do
just
you
know,
I'm,
always
very
cautious,
of
asking
questions
about
bargaining
at
the
open
meeting,
because
I
don't
want
to
I,
don't
want
to
throw
a
wrench
in
things,
and
so
I
just
wanted
to
say
that
to
you
all
my
colleagues
that
it'd
be
nice
to
have
a
little
more
lens
into,
because
it's
either
going
to
be
the
executive's
side's
point
of
view.
The
bargaining
units
point
of
view
and
no
third
person
to
be
able
to
say.
L
Well,
that's
that's
not
accurate,
or
that
is
accurate
in
terms
of
how
they
went
about
getting
to
this
point.
So
nothing
for
today,
but
I
know
we
have
different
agreements
coming
up
down
the
pike
and
things
like
that.
It
would
be
nice
to
know
you're
already
so
busy,
but
perhaps
you're
already
meeting
like
how
Phil
and
I'll
meet
with
some
of
the
department
heads
before
EDI,
just
so
that
we
know
all
of
the
all
of
the
skeletons
where
they're
buried
so
I
just
want
to
share
that.
L
So,
of
course,
I
appreciate
appreciate
your
work,
but
I
do
know.
Sometimes
it's
a
their
word
versus
their
the
other
person's
word
and
without
someone
from
this
body
not
to
talk
literally
to
just
sit
in
there
and
just
listen
and
observe
you're.
Not
actually
talking
at
all
would
be
nice
to
know
that
that's
happening.
M
T
And
so,
just
very
briefly
about
me:
I've
been
a
labored
employment
lawyer
for
for
20
years
before
I
joined
the
county,
so
over
the
years
of
representing
various
communities
throughout
the
state
that
that's
a
very
good
suggestion.
I've
had
members
of
their
respective,
whether
it's
a
county
or
a
city
or
a
Township
that
members
of
their
legislative
bodies
sit
in
whether
I
mean
careful.
What
you
wish
for
right,
I
doubt
that
you
want
to
be
present
for
an
entire
the
entirety
of
a
contract.
T
Negotiation
I
welcome
it
if
you
want
or
if
we
can
set
up,
because
let
me
take
a
step
back,
but
the
majority
of
these
contracts,
the
master
Agreements,
are
going
to
be
up
I
want
to
say
in
like
18
months
to
two
years
right,
so
whether
you
want
to
designate
somebody
to
sit
through
all
of
those
like
cautionary
but
or
just
set
up
a
series
of
meets
with
with
myself
or
an
individuals
from
from
my
department
to
brief
you
on
it,
we're
happy
to
have
it
be
as
transparent
of
a
process
and
we
welcome
Partners
to
it
so
I'm
I'm,
always
in
favor
of
having
someone
who
holds
the
purse
strings
of
the
county
involved
in
the
process
of
hey
is.
T
A
Know
so
well,
my
suggestion
to
you
would
be
find
a
place
in
the
loop
that
you
think
we
might
fish
sure
that's
good
and
then
let
us
know
and
then
we'll
we
can
get
involved
with
that.
N
T
N
Be
no
I,
just
I
just
was
trying
to
put
your
face
now
with
your
name
because
everybody
kept
mentioning
it,
especially
for
me,
because
I
have
a
the
political
background
is
long
so
everybody's
trying
to
convince
me,
like
you
know,
Dan,
you
know
I'm
like.
T
T
U
Good
morning,
good
morning,
once
again
my
name
is
Brian.
Coburn
I
am
one
of
the
managers
for
Water
Resource
commissioner's
office,
I'm
joined
by
Amy
plouffe
who's,
our
chief
engineer
over
water
systems.
The
reason
we're
here
I
want
to
start
with
a
little
bit
background
back
in
2021
the
board
passed
two
resolutions.
One
was
to
create
the
local
government
critical
infrastructure
program
and
the
other
one
was
to
allocate
the
funds
to
the
25.
I
can't
remember
how
many
communities
that
were
involved
in
that
one
Community
was
left
out
of
the
list.
U
At
the
time
the
appropriation
was
made
for
all
the
other
communities
and
that
was
Royal
Oak
Township
Royal
Oak
Township
received
three
million
dollars
in
state
Grant
funds
for
the
replacement
of
lead
service
leads.
These
are
lead
service
lines
that
are
related
to
Water
Service
to
the
home,
and
the
three
million
dollars
covers
the
construction.
Only
the
grant
the
450
000
that
we're
asking
to
be
appropriate
today
would
cover
the
administrative
costs
of
procuring
the
grant.
U
The
engineering
costs
related
to
the
design
of
the
of
the
work
that's
going
to
be
done
in
the
bidding,
and
then
that
would
offs
in
the
construction
obviously
would
be
paid
for
the
three
million
dollar
Grant.
So
with
that
we're
just
asking
for
the
appropriation
that
was
recommended
by
the
committee
back
in
2021.
L
That's
okay,
commissioner
Smith
Charles
yeah.
So
this
is
a
recap.
From
this
morning
the
big
number
was
around
13
million
like
this
is
really
not
even
a
drop
in
the
bucket.
This
is
like
a
bird's
beak
worth
of
liquid
in
the
bucket,
but
could
you
just
say
one
more
time?
It's
funding
to
replace
I
mean
the
funding
to
replace.
Is
the
the
big
number
right.
U
So
it's
really
easy
for
these
under
under
served
communities
to
get
grant
funding
with
zero
principal
Payback
right.
So
it's
a
grant
from
the
state,
but
those
don't
cover
any
of
the
non-construction
costs.
So
what
we're
looking
at
is
every
time
we
get.
One
of
these
grants
we're
looking
for
funding
to
help
pay
for
those
non-grant
costs,
and
that's
we
I
think
we've
been
here
a
couple
times
to
talk
about
Royal
Oak
Township,
and
this
is
one
of
those.
U
A
Philosophically
this
just
shows
us
again
how
did
much
of
a
hole
we've
dug
for
ourselves
by
not
investing
in
infrastructure
over
the
years?
Absolutely
you
know
we
should
have
been
doing
this
a
little
bit
at
a
time
all
along,
and
it
would
not
be
such
a
huge
ask
to
try
and
get
clean
water
into
every
home
in
Oakland
County.
So
but
at
least
we're
doing
it.
We're
moving
along,
so
managerial
6878,
okay
motion
carries
thank
you.
B
S
The
Evergreen
Farmington
sewage
Disposal
system
was
originally
formed
in
1954
under
act.
342
of
1939
in
this
authorized
counties
to
establish
water,
sewer
and
sewage,
Disposal
Systems.
So
in
2020,
several
of
the
customer
communities
of
the
Evergreen
Farmington
sanitary
Disposal
system
petitioned
to
become
a
chapter
20
drain.
A
W
All
right
well
good
morning
again,
some
of
you,
so
this
is
for
the
2023
Capital
Improvement
plan
Paving
projects.
This
resolution's
for
one
million
925
273.
W
And
it
is
to
pave
repave
portions
of
the
Board
of
Commissioners
parking
lot
here,
a
parking
lot
at
the
executive
office
building
and
then
the
road
that
leads
from
County
Center
Drive
past
the
resource
and
Crisis
Center
in
North
Oakland
Health
Center,
so
that
that
road
would
be
replaced
as
well
with
the
parking
lots.
We
are
also
improving
accessibility
routes,
the
walking
paths
and
then
adding
easy
infrastructure
to
them.
L
No
I'll
comment
and
just
say
that
I'm
there
was
so
much
conversation
between
meetings
about
this
parking
lot
too
bad.
You
guys
couldn't
have
heard
that,
but
we
were
just
you
know
identifying
that
you're
going
to
work
be
working
primarily
in
the
middle
and
how
like
the
accessible
parking
and
EV
parking
would
be
a
little
closer
to
the
building,
which
makes
sense
because
of
having
to
get
those
wires
connected
and
all
that,
but
that
would
be
phase
three.
You
know
face
something
else
and
that
you
may
not
pave
the
executives.
L
Pontiac
thing
goes
through,
so
that's
the
crib
notes
of
what
I
retained
from
from
earlier
and
that
if
you
drive
a
gas
guzzler,
you're
you're
going
to
be
parking
further
from
buildings.
Now
from
now
from
now
on
now
like,
if
you
use
petroleum
to
power,
your
vehicle
get
used
to
not
being
close
to
any
buildings
anymore.
Well,.
G
I,
wouldn't
I,
wouldn't
Cindy
once
you
have
to
park
any
further
than
what
you
want
to
do,
we're
not
creating
parking
spots
farther
away,
how
it
feels
we're
just
yeah,
taking
it
taken
advantage
of
putting
in
stations
that
are
closer
to
the
building
because
getting
the
power
there
right
and
subsequently.
F
Commissioner
Rahman,
thank
you,
chair
to
segue
off
what
commissioner
Smith
Charles
was
saying.
Part
of
our
discussion.
Offline
was
also
just
in
terms
of
the
parking,
and
you
know
the
signage
and
things
like
that.
So
if
we
are
redoing
a
lot,
maybe
to
I
know,
we
talked
about
striping
or
you
know
for
some
of
the
so
the.
A
A
They
don't
know
I
mean
we're,
not
here
all
the
time
right,
but
when
we're
here
we
want
a
space
right,
so
one
thought
was
stripe
off
the
19
spaces
for
the
19
Commissioners,
with
a
little
different
color
and
a
sign
that
says
Board
of
Commissioners,
and
then
that
tells
everybody.
Those
are
the
Commissioners
spaces,
because
it
looks
like
people
kind
of
further
down
beyond
the
sign.
If
there's
an
open
space
they're
pulling
in
there
and
then
one
of
us
today.
M
Q
N
Q
L
A
G
Yeah
yeah,
so
purchasing
was
involved
with
the
entire
process,
whether
or
not
the
individual
that
you're
referring
to
was
specifically
involved.
I'm,
not
sure
we,
we
are
assigned
a
buyer
for
our
department
and
we
are
to
work
through
that
person
and
it's
my
understanding
that
the
individual
that
you're
referring
to
is
overseeing
all
of
the
contracts
departments
with
the
buyers,
but
I
can't
I
can't
speak
for
them.
G
We
explained
in
edni
that,
typically
we
don't
use
a
construction
management
firm
for
repaving,
but
based
on
the
market,
you
know
we
had
to
bid
this
project
three
times
just
to
get
contractors
interested
in
doing
the
work
because
of
the
infrastructure
dollars
that
are
out
there.
This
is
not
a
very
big
profitable
project
for
them,
so
we
reached
out
to
all
five
of
our
annual
construction
managers
to
see
if
they
could
help
us
use
their
leverage.
G
Because
of
this,
the
the
number
of
and
the
scale
of
the
projects
that
they
do
to
bring
some
bidders
to
the
the
table
which
did
work
but
even
then
of
the
five
construction
managers,
Frank,
rewald
and
son,
is
the
only
one
that
stepped
forward
and
said
that
they
would
help
us
with
this
project.
A
A
F
F
F
All
right,
I
think
we
have
commissioner
Juliet
here
to
to
provide
some
background
information
and
to
help
everybody
understand
what
we're
talking
about
here.
So
welcome.
V
Thank
you.
Thank
you,
this
time
yeah.
So
this
program,
if
you
are
aware,
was
approved
in
the
budget
back
in
November.
V
Sign
line
items,
and
it
is.
F
L
Yeah
I
just
wanted
to
make
sure
my
colleagues
knew
that-
and
this
is
just
for
transparency
sake-
that
commissioner
Julia
and
commissioner
Woodward
did
get
a
chance
to
chat
about
this.
We've
been
kind
of
all
volleying
this
for
the
last
few
weeks
to
figure
out
how
we
can
get
that
this
to
edi's
agenda
so
that
it
could
come
to
finance
and
chairman,
and
commissioner
Joliet
were
both
on
board
with
the
fact
that
the
board
of
commissions
will
appropriate
the
funds
now
to
a
non-departmental
line
item.
L
F
Thank
you
so
much,
commissioner
Juliet,
all
right,
so
I
think
that
covers
most
of
our
agenda
here.
Moving
on,
we've
got
our
final
public
comment.
If
there's
anybody
from
the
public
that
wants
to
address
the
finance
committee
on
anything
at
all,
seeing
none
all
right,
we'll
close
the
second
public
comment
and
move
on
to
any
other
business
at
this
time,
I.
D
Was
just
wondering
since
the
Michigan
Supreme
Court's
already
ruled
the
federal
Supreme
Court's
now
ruled
that
keeping
somebody's
equity
in
their
home
through
property
tax
foreclosures
on
constitutional
is
considered
a
taking
I
would
like
a
report
from
the
finance
committee
or
whoever
I
want
to
know
how
many
people
have
been
paid,
what
percent
they've
been
paid
and
how
many
more
lawsuits,
if
there
are
still
pending
lawsuits
against
Oakland
County,
to
get
their
Equity
back?
That's
right,
I,
like
them
some
kind
of
a
summary
and
a
a
report.
Okay,.
D
The
state
Supreme
Court
ruled
the
U.S
Supreme
Courts
recently
ruled
that
if
you
keep
somebody's
equity
in
the
property
tax,
foreclosure,
it's
a
taking,
it's
unconstitutional
I
would
like
to
report
on
what
Oakland
County
has
done
so
far
to
give
these
people
their
money
back,
how
many
people
have
got
their
money
back
and
what
percent
and
any
more
pending?
If
there's
still
more,
pending
lawsuits
and
I?
Guess
I'd
like
to
have
a
discussion
down
the
road
about?
Why
don't
we
just
locate
these
people
and
give
them
their
money
back?
We
took
their
money.
D
N
N
It
was
so
simple
that,
at
the
end
of
the
day,
if
anybody
missed
the
window
of
time
that
they
had
to
get
the
application
filled
out
and
submitted,
that's
really
not
on
us,
but
I
know
that
our
Treasury
Department
sent
out
prop
several
notifications,
so
at
least
the
individuals
or,
however,
they
could
get
in
contact
with
people
of
whatever
records
we
had
I
know
they
have
just
know
that
there
is
a
law
firm
in
place
and
that
everything
that
you're
asking
for,
though
that
is
a
this-
is
great
time
to
get
an
update
of
what
where
things
are
at,
but
people
weren't
able
to
apply
people
are
in
that
process
to
get
their
money
back.
D
N
Applied
because
I
was
making
sure
so
Isaac
just
so,
you
know
people
in
the
past
had
the
Foreclosure.
They
house
went
through
our
Oakland
County
foreclosure.
Any
of
that
I
guess
the
equity
in
their
home
that
they
received
in
the
foreclosure
process
they
used
to.
We
used
to
keep
it,
we
keep
it
now.
No,
whatever
we
sell
the
home
for
is
to
go
to
the
person
who
lost
the
home.
So
that's
what
he
that's.
What
this
is
all
about
for
the.
A
N
Been
here,
we've
been
a
lead
for
the
state
on
it,
so
a
lot
of
the
other
counties
because
they,
the
state,
ordered
every
County
to
pay
this
money
back
thank
God
over
the
county,
never
tapped
into
it,
so
we
can
pay
it,
but
other
counties
are
in
different
situations
to
where
they
can't
take
care
of
that.
So
we
set.
N
They'll
follow
up
our
staff
will
follow
up
with
them
and
get
them
on
the
agenda
Finance
agenda,
so
they
can
do
a
report.
H
F
Thank
you
all
right.
Any
other
business
I
was
just
gonna
make
one
motion
here
recommend
that
the
special
projects
for
the
city
of
Wixom
be
postponed
until
the
July
General
full
Board
of
commissioner's
meeting
I'm,
actually
going
to
be
absent
at
the
upcoming
one
and
I
wanted
to
be
there
to
vote
on
that
particular
motion.
