motion

All

signify
by
saying
aye
aye
opposed
agenda's
approved
next
up,
we'll
move
on
to
public
comment?
A
Is
there
anyone
from
the
public
who'd
like
to
address
the
legislative
affairs
and
government
operations
committee
this
evening
sure
please
come
to
the
head
of
the
table
and
state
your
name
and
community
in
which
you
reside
in
as
a
reminder,
this
first
public
comment
is
for
items
that
are
on
the
current
legislative
affairs
and
government
operations
committee
agenda
good
evening.
C

Besides
the
point
that
it
was
added
so
late,
it
wasn't
there
yesterday,
I
don't
believe
at
all
so
obviously
it's
another
inserted
meeting
that
doesn't
have
proper
public
notice
time
requirements
given
to
the
public
to
be
able
to
have
some
idea
what's
going
on
in
the
county.
So
that's
another
transparency
issue
that
continues
and
I
really
wish
I
do
appreciate.
C
C
A
D
A
See
none.
I
will
close
our
first
public
comment.
Next,
stop.
There
are
no
communication
items
so
we'll
move
on
down
to
number
six,
which
is
our
regular
agenda.
We've
got
one
agenda
item,
appointment
of
oakland,
county
parks
and
recreation,
commission,
executive
officer
in
creation
of
new
appointed
non-merit
classification,
titled,
director
parks
and
recreation.
Do
we
have
a
motion
motion
by
commissioner
gershenson
support
by
commissioner
kochendurfer
and
I
believe
we
have
the
chairman
of
the
parks
and
rec
commission
gary
mcgilvery
here
with
us
this
evening,
so
welcome
gary
and
welcome
mr
ward.
E
F
All
right,
thank
you,
mr
chair,
and
thanks
members
of
the
committee
for
this
opportunity,
and
it
really
is
a
quite
an
honor
dan
stensel
served
our
county
incredibly
well
for
42
years
and
he's
irreplaceable,
but
I
will
do
my
very
best
to
to
try
to
fill
those
shoes.
Should
I
be
given
this
opportunity
this
evening
with
your
your
support.
F
As
you
all
know,
oakland
county
parks
and
recreation
are
supported
by
the
taxpayers
and
it's
an
important
part
of
this
responsibility
to
ensure
those
taxpayers.
Funds
are
responsibly
protected
and
spent
only
to
continue
to
improve
and
build
upon
our
wonderful
park
system.
It's
such
a
great
asset
for
all
of
us
and
improves
the
quality
of
life
for
oakley
county
residents.
F
I
think
oakland
and
you
know
all
of
us
in
oklahoma,
county
and
across
the
world,
have
understood
more
so
than
ever
before
during
kova
19,
the
importance
of
parks
in
our
lives,
and
it's
brought
to
light
really
the
role
they
play
critically
in
improving
our
health
and
well-being,
our
mental
health
and
well-being,
and,
more
so
now
than
ever.
Those
disparities
that
exist
in
access
really
need
to
be
addressed.
Those
are
issues
of
justice.
I
hope
to
make
that
really
a
high
priority.
F
G
Well,
I'm
super
excited
about
this
appointment.
Chris
very
few
people
have
the
trust
of
all
21
commissioners,
it's
a
very
unique
honor
or
that
you've
had
and
that
we've
had
working
with
you.
You
work
collaboratively.
I
think
that's
super
important
over
coming
into
a
new
department
like
parks,
and
they
have
such
a
strong
parks
team,
the
staff
over
there
that
I'm
sure
it's
going
to
be
just
a
great
fit
with
your
knowledge
of
administration
and
how
things
work
and
budgeting
I'm
very
excited
about
it.
Congratulations.
F
Thank
you,
commissioner.
It'd
be
kind
of
you
to
say,
had
a
great
opportunity
to
sit
down
with
the
senior
staff
at
parks
yesterday,
just
a
great
professional
team
of
individuals-
and
this
is
a
big
transition
for
them.
So
I'm
sensitive
to
that
and
we're
going
to
work
well
together.
I'm
confident
of
that.
You
know
it
might
be
a
little
misleading
with
the
title
that
it
sounds
like
it's
a
new
position,
it's
just
being
transferred
from
a
merit
job
to
an
appointed
job.
So
you
know
gary.
Can
fire
me
at
any
moment
in
time.
E
You
might
also
add,
madam
chairman,
the
parks
board
voted
yesterday
and
that's
why
it's
kind
of
short
coming
to
you
quickly
here
and
we
wanted
to
try
to
get
it
done,
because
our
operating
manager
that
being
sue
wells
wants
to
leave
as
soon
as
possible.
So
we
wanted
to
try
to
rush
it
as
much
as
we
could.
E
D
I'm
also
very
excited
about
your
appointment.
Your
past
experience
speaks
very
highly
of
you
and
you'll
be
a
great
fiduciary
for
our
residents
of
oakland
county.
So
thank
you
thanks,
commissioner.
H
I
congratulate
you
in
coming
into
this
position.
I
know
we
all
know
your
history
and
how
long
you've
been
with
us
at
the
county
and
knowing
the
needs
of
the
park,
knowing
the
evolution
of
where
the
parks
are
going,
and
so
it's
good
to
have
someone
that
is
familiar
with
the
county
operations
and
familiar
with
the
people
on
the
parks
board.
One
quick
question
is
sue
wells
going
to
be
replaced.
F
B
B
B
Commissioner,
culture,
all
right,
echo
all
the
fantastic
choice.
Congratulations
thanks,
commissioner.
A
Mr
ward,
to
echo
the
fellow
committee
members,
we
are
so
excited
to
have
you
transition
into
this
position
and
we're
in
great
hands.
We
are
in
great
hands,
so
congratulations.
A
Zero
days
that
confirms
the
appointment
of
the
parks
and
rec
director,
congratulations,
mr
wards.
A
Next
up
we'll
move
on
to
our
second
public
comment
of
the
evening.
Is
there
anyone
from
the
public
who
would
like
to
address
the
legislative
affairs
and
government
operations
committee
this
evening
going
once
twice
see
none?
I
will
now
close
public
comment.
Commissioners.

any
further

affairs
government
operations
committee
