a
reminder,
individuals
will
have
three
minutes,
and
this
first
public
comment
will
be
specific
to
items
on

agenda.
So
at
this
time,
I'd
like
to
open
up
public
comment,
there's
individuals
who
would
like
to
come
to
the
end
of
the
table
state
your
name
community
and
agenda
item
which
you're
speaking
on.
D
D
D
D
B
Good
morning,
good
morning,
commissioners,
my
name
is
catherine
kennedy
from
lake
orion
and
I'm
pleased
to
be
able
to
come
here.
I've
got
so
many
new
friends
as
a
result
of
this
commission.
I
have
to
admit
so.
I
actually
was
one
of
those
seniors
that
maybe
was
a
little
bit
too
much
in
my
home
from
this
whole
situation.
B
So
I'm
glad
to
see
that
the
items
f
g
and
h
are
being
removed.
I'm
really
kind
of
perplexed.
Last
year
we
kept
having
a
lot
of
15
salary
increases,
even
though
25
of
our
businesses
no
longer
existed
as
of
the
middle
of
the
year,
and
I
see
you
want
to
appoint
a
permanent
staffing
for
creating
a
chief,
employee
and
labor
relations
officer
classification
position.
B
Haven't
we
learned,
we
can't
keep
adding
positions.
I
was
offended.
The
diversity
officer
gets
143,
000
brooks
used
to
get
paid
201..
I
don't
even
know
what
a
diversity
officer
does.
It
hasn't
even
been
defined,
so
it's
rather
offensive
because
I
understand
it
takes
a
lot
of
individual
citizens
paying
their
taxes
to
create
one
position
at
a
government
level
doesn't
matter
which
government
okay
and
then
we
want
to
appoint
a
regional
convention
facility
authority.
B
That's
very
concerning,
especially
since
when
I
went
to
auburn
hills
meyer,
the
bus
that
they
want
to
prove
actually
goes
all
the
way
to
the
riverfront,
and
then
yesterday,
when
I
downloaded
the
packet,
so
I
could
thoroughly
review
and
have
an
understanding
of
what
I'm
actually
talking
about
here.
B
B
B
The
other
is
just
comments
how
to
contact
you,
but
you
can't
go
through
all
this
data
reasonably
in
18
hours
and
if
you
work
like
most
citizens
do
this
is
clearly
offensive.
So
I
would
ask
that
you
also
remove
item
m
in
its
entirety
because
it
was
not
given
sufficient
time
for
anybody
to
review.
I
doubt
even
the
commissioners
had
a
chance
to
review
it,
but
maybe
you're
in
a
different
system.
B
So
maybe
you
get
things
earlier
than
we
do,
but
because
it's
public
money,
why
isn't
it
given
to
us
far
enough
in
advance
to
be
making
reasonable
thoughtful
decisions
for
the
benefit
of
the
citizens
of
this
county?
So
I
would
ask
that
you
stop
looking
at
green
solutions
which
create
more
staffing
positions
and
focus
on
land
conservation.
In
fact,
I
actually
know
entirely
how
to
put
it
together.
My
brother
has
done
two
land
conservancies
himself
and
he's
willing
to
help.
So
please
rethink
this
entire
strategy.
Thank
you.
H
Good
morning,
good
morning,
tasha
shergin
from
clarkston.
This
is
in
regards
to
item
9i.
This
is
a
request
to
add
a
new
position
of
chief
employee
and
labor
relations
officer.
Currently,
labor
relations
are
handled
by
two
full-time
employees
leadership's
been
determined
that
there's
need
to
have
a
position
with
the
legal
background
to
interpret
labor
contracts
and
reduce
line
item
legal
service
expenditures.
E
Okay,
is
there
anyone
else
from
the
public
who
would
like
to
address
the
legislative
affairs
and
government
operations
committee
during
this
first
round
of
public
comment
in
regards
to
items
on
our
agenda
this
morning,
alrighty
see
none.
I
will
close
our
first
public
comment.
Next
up,
we'll
move
on
to
communications.
We've
got
one
item
under
communications:
a
communications
appointments,
the
second
quarter
report.
E
E
Five
yeah
zero
nice
communications
has
been
filed
next
up,
we'll
move
on
to
our
regular
or
I'm
sorry,
we'll
move
on
to
our
consent
agenda.
We've
got
three
items
under
the
consent
agenda
item
a
proclamation
proclaiming
april
22nd
2022
is
earth
day
in
oakland
county
item
b
recognizing
april
29th.
2022
is
arbor
day
in
oakland,
county
and
item
c.
Observing
april
2022
is
genocide
awareness
month
in
oakland
county.
Do
we
have
a
motion
motion
by
commissioner
loops
support
by
commissioner
jackson,
chairman.
F
F
This
is
something
that
I'm
very
proud
in
this
county,
regardless
of
the
the
makeup
of
the
governing
body,
the
executive
office
and
elected
officials
that
this
county
has
come
together
to
not
only
recognize
genocide
awareness
month,
but
are
intentional
about
making
certain
that
we
remember
that
we
educate
in
order
not
to
ensure
that
it
doesn't
happen
again,
the
the
terrible
tragedies
to
the
jewish
people
to
armenians
to
rwandans.
F
I
mean
the
list
goes
on
and
these
horrific
acts-
and
it
is
important
for
governing
bodies
to
come
up
and
speak,
not
only
to
call
and
reference
to
these
things
and
recognize
them
as
genocide,
but
learn
from
them
and
make
sure
that
future
generations
and
our
youngest
people,
but
also
I
mean
remind
those
who
probably
should
know
more
about
it.
F
We
have
incredible
resources
here
in
oakland
county,
the
the
holocaust
museum
I
mean
raises
up
to
one
of
the
the
highest
pillar,
but
we
have
I
mean
smaller
institutions
that
I
mean
I
do
this
and
I
think
this
is
very
appropriate
and
I'm
glad
to
see
that
our
entire
board
is,
I
mean,
coming
together
to
support
it
as
it
relates
to
the
other
amendments.
In
april
being
I
mean
earth
day,
and
I
mean
and
also
holding
arbor
day.
F
I
I
wanted
to
let
the
committee
know
that
I've
reached
out
to
I
mean
aaron
cattell,
our
sustainability
officer
here
in
oakland
county
who's,
going
to
be
bringing
forth
a
report
of
the
sustainability
audit
and
laying
out
some
plans
of
implementation
of
that
that
effort
at
our
next
board
meeting.
So
that
will
be
our
april
meeting.
So
stay
stay
tuned
and
look
for
that
as
well.
E
E
Five
yay
zero
nades
motion
carries
next
up,
we'll
move
on
to
our
regular
agenda.
Our
first
item
is
item
a
contract
amendment
number
three
with
the
oakland
literacy
council
for
contract
extension
and
change
of
scope
for
adult
literacy
projects.
Do
we
have
a
motion
motion
by
commissioner
joliet's
support
by
commissioner
loops
and
I
believe
we've
got
lisa
here
with
us
this
morning,
so
welcome
lisa.
H
And
then
there
was
some
slides
excellent
at
some
point:
it's
all
right!
They're
there,
okay,
now
they're
there.
Okay,
I
don't
know.
What's
going
on
behind
me.
Well
happy
math,
weirdest
month,
it's
awesome,
math
awareness
month!
I'm
excited
for
that,
and
thank
you
so
much
for
giving
me
this
opportunity
to
come
before
you
on
behalf
of
this
amazing
organization.
That
is
a
critical
part
of
our
workforce
infrastructure.
H
My
name
is
lisa
michelski
and
I'm
a
birmingham
resident
and
a
lifelong
oakland
county
resident
and
I've
been
the
executive
director
of
the
oakland
literacy
council
for
six
years
with
me
today.
Is
our
board
chair,
john
olmstead,
that
you
might
some
people
might
know
around
here.
He's
the
former
manager
of
oakland
county
workforce
development
and
ellen
lipton
is
one
of
our
newest
board
members.
Who
also
is
on
the
state
board
of
education.
H
We
also
have
sue
clunk,
who
is
a
staff
member
for
communications,
and
we
also
have
a
special
guest
evelyn
briggs,
who
is
a
learner
with
our
organization,
and
I
will
be
turning
it
over
to
her.
After
my
brief
remarks,
oakland
literacy
council
has
been
a
mainstay
of
oakland
county
since
1984,
when
volunteer
tutors
first
came
together
to
to
work
with
adults
who
have
low
reading
skills.
H
Since
that
time,
thousands
of
oakland
county
adults
have
built
confidence
in
one-on-one
relationship
with
a
tutor
learning
to
read
and
speak
english
in
2020,
we
began
offering
digital
literacy
services
so
that
individuals
can
build
the
technology
skills
needed
for
everyday
tests.
Even
doctors
appointments
all
these
new
things
that
you
can
even
go
to
a
board
of
commissioners
meeting
virtually
now
and
in
2001
we
launched
our
basic
math
program,
which
we're
very
proud
of
over
the
past
couple
of
years.
H
We've
also
made
significant
investments
in
student
support
so
that
students
can
overcome
significant
barriers
to
learning
that
that,
as
many
juggle
difficult
personal
lives
which
include
mental
illness,
homelessness,
child
care,
transportation
and
multiple
low-wage
jobs,
our
students
and
tutors
amaze
me,
every
day
yesterday,
I
was
told
of
a
student
who
walked
two
miles
in
the
snow
to
get
to
get
to
get
to
his
lesson
at
the
southfield
library
he
even
arrived
early
before
the
library
opened.
He
was
so
eager
to
learn.
H
He
met
a
well-trained
tutor
who
used
a
new
curriculum
design
for
those
with
reading
disabilities.
I'm
here
to
tell
you
many
of
our
students
would
not
succeed
without
this
personalized
approach.
Your
investment
in
our
organization
is
critical.
This
investment
leads
to
higher
wages
for
oakland
county
residents
as
they're
able
to
use
their
newfound
skills
in
the
workplace.
H
Your
investment
leads
to
better
outcomes
for
the
k-12
children
of
our
learners,
and
your
investment
makes
our
communities
stronger
as
learners
come
out
from
the
shadows
to
take
their
rightful
place
in
our
institutions
and
neighborhoods.
I
would
like
to
showcase
some
of
our
learners.
This
is
why
we
need
to
slide.
H
We
have
for
rosa
who
is
a
new
immigrant
from
afghanistan
here
in
our
community
she's
a
mother
of
two.
She
had
no
english
skills
and
cannot
read
and
write
in
her
native
language.
Even
so,
she
had
no
education,
while
in
afghanistan
she's
meeting
at
rama,
with
an
experienced
tutor
which
also
eliminates
the
transportation
barrier
as
she
can
walk
and
she
is
enthusiastic
and
learning
fast,
and
then
we
have
ray
from
waterford
who's.
The
next
one
he's
a
veteran
he's
recently
widowed,
like
many
of
our
older
abe
students.
H
So
we're
very
proud
of
her,
and
then
we
have
dai
woon
who's
from
lake
orion
he's
from
an
immigrant
from
south
korea,
as
tudor
was
his
first
friend
here
in
the
usa,
and
he
shared
his
idea
to
open
a
restaurant,
and
one
of
the
things
that
they
worked
on
was
going
over
regulations,
what
it
meant
to
open
a
restaurant
and
all
the
things
he
needed
in
order
to
get
his
different
certifications
and
setting
up
his
business
and
now
he's
the
proud
owner
of
sushi
sushi
eubai
and
lake
orion,
so
good
place
to
go,
and
then
we
have
evelyn
and
evelyn
lost
her
daughter
to
coven
19
and
now
is
raising
her
two
grandchildren,
nevia
and
jaden,
and
her
goal
is
to
get
a
ged.
H
How
can
I
tell
them
it's
important
to
get
an
education
to
get
their
diploma
when
I
don't
have
mine,
so
she
was
inspired
to
do
that.
She
had
never
used
a
computer
before,
but
now
she
has
her
lessons
all
virtually
our
digital
literacy
coordinator
helped
her
get
the
comcast
essentials
program
and
she
has
advanced
in
her
reading
and
she's
working
on
her
math.
Now
next
slide.
H
There's
only
two,
I
promise
and
we
really
see
ourselves
as
a
critical
piece
with
the
oakland
80
effort,
because
we
help
people
get
into
that
space
where
they
can
get
those
certifications.
We
have
tr
padma
who's
from
troy.
She
earned
her
cda
certificate
and
is
now
a
preschool
teaching
assistant
in
tri-schools,
and
then
we
have
cornelius,
and
you
can't
really
tell
from
this
picture
but
he's
in
his
car.
He
sometimes
he
takes
his
lessons
in
his
car
because
he's
juggling
two
jobs
and
two
kids.
H
H
She
visited
the
cosmetology
school
with
her
tutor
and
now
she's
a
certified
nail
technician
with
aspirations
to
own
her
own
salon,
and
then
we
have
ascension
from
troy
she's
a
graduate
just
this
year.
She
just
graduated
real,
soon
she's
a
process
engineer
in
mexico,
but
she's
been
working
at
marshalls
to
gain
her
english
skills,
but
now
she
feels
ready
to
start
looking
for
a
job
using
her
considerable
skills
and
we
just
connected
her
with
the
troy
michigan
works
office
and
she
engaged
her
graduation.
H
She
wants
to
be
a
cna
and
take
care
of
older
people
like
those
who
care
for
a
grandmother,
and
we
had
a
student
from
the
our
workplace,
small
group
setting
who
now
works
for
the
unemployment
agency
for
the
state
of
michigan,
because
they
need
those
bilingual
skills
and
there's
also
stories
that
are
yet
to
be.
Yesterday
we
had
a
37
year
old
male
from
southfield,
apply
to
our
program
in
his
application.
He
wrote.
I
want
to
be
able
to
read
anything
and
be
able
to
read
good
enough
to
get
a
good
job.
H
H
C
I
Hello,
everybody
hi,
you
guys.
How
are
you
guys
doing
today
about
yourself?
That's
wonderful,
wonderful
god!
It's
good!
I'm
telling
you
I'm
here
to
speak
briefly
on
behalf
of
oakland
literacy
and
what
it
has
done
for
me
myself
and
my
grandkids.
I
I
I
Got
pregnant
got
married
all
that
done
that
whatever
so
now,
it's
all
about
me
taking
care
of
myself
and
my
grandkids.
Okay,
as
I
stated
on
the
paper,
I
want
to
be
a
good
example
for
them.
I
don't
want
to
have
to
tell
them.
You
really
need
to
get
that
piece
of
paper
ashley.
I
have
told
them
several
times.
You
don't
know
what
that
paper
means.
That's
your
lifeline!
Literally!
I
I
I
If
I
could
strive
and
show
my
grandchildren
how
to
strive
for
the
bigger
things
in
life,
I
want
to
show
them
not
just
show.
If
I
can
do
it,
you
can
do
it.
You
understand
what
I'm
saying-
and
this
is
why
I'm
here
today
and
I
appreciate
local
literacy
but
everything
that's
inside
of
me.
I
did
go
to
a
couple
other
places.
It
did
not
work,
they
I
didn't
hear
from
them.
I
So
I
by
incident,
I
called
this
local
literacy
and
I
heard
from
them
the
very
next
day
and
to
god
be
the
glory
it's
been
on
impopinary
since
okay,
so
everything
has
been
wonderful,
I
do
have
they
brought
me
a
laptop,
I'm
learning
how
to
play
with
their
thing.
I'm
gonna
be
honest.
With
back
in
the
day
I
didn't,
we
didn't,
have
no
laptops.
Okay,
I'm
61
years
old,
I'm
gonna
be
62
this
year.
I
I
I
I
was
just
as
proud
of
them
as
they
were
me
to
see
us
do
it
together
and
that's
what
this
program
has
done
for
us.
My
two
grandkids
up
there
and
I
know
their
mom-
would
be
very
proud.
So
I
just
appreciate
you
guys,
and
I
appreciate
the
school
and
I'll,
tell
you
my
tutor
she's
part
of
the
family,
I'm
serious.
Lastly,
oh
my
god,
she's
just
she's
just
awesome.
I
You
can
do
whatever
you
set
your
mind
to
do
and
we
have
to
continue
to
teach
that
and
and
never
let
that
fall
towards
our
children,
our
grandchildren.
They
always
have
to
know
they
can
succeed.
There's
no
way,
there's
too
much
out
here,
for
you
not
to
be
able
to
succeed.
You
understand
what
I'm
saying.
I
I
E
Commissioners
questions
comments,
commissioner,.
J
Jackson,
I
was
very
excited
to
see
that
there's
a
numeracy
component
to
this
and
so
you're
also
teaching
on
basic
math
skills
and
financial
literacy
balance
of
checkbook.
All
of
that.
J
And
I
just
want
to
thank
evelyn
again.
My
very
best
friend
is
raising
three
of
her
grandchildren.
J
Her
son
jumped
off
that
water
tower
to
his
death
and
I
just
want
to
say
I
know
your
struggle
and
and
I'm
very
proud
that
you
shared
your
story
with
us,
because
you
know
sometimes
people
see
grandparents
raising
grandchildren
and
they
don't
know
the
back
story,
and
I
also
really
offer
my
condolences
for
you
losing
your
daughter
to
covey
it.
I've
lost
so
many
people
myself.
So
thank
you.
Thank
you.
I
appreciate
the
appreciation.
E
Thank
you,
commissioner
jackson,
commissioner.
K
E
K
H
That's
a
good
question
right,
it's
so
hard
because
everybody
comes
in
at
it
from
different
questions,
so
we've
been
really
intentionally
making
sure
that
we're
investing
resources
in
the
southern
part
of
the
county
too,
because
we
know
that
that's
a
big
part
of
it.
We
know
that
word
of
mouth
is
always
a
good.
You
know
our
current
students
are
the
best
ambassadors
for
our
other
things.
H
We've
also
been
very
intentionally
working
in
the
city
of
pontiac
building
relationships,
the
united
way
funded
us
for
our
work
in
pontiac,
which
they've
decided
that
they
no
longer
value.
You
know
so
that's
part
of
it.
So
it's
a
constant
struggle.
We're
always
trying
to
do
our
best
to
to
do
that,
but
it
takes.
H
Specific
resources
for
the
southern
part
of
the
county
and
the
city
of
pontiac.
C
I
E
I
appreciate
that
chairman,
followed
by
commissioner
loops.
D
D
H
D
Yes,
thank
you
and
evelyn.
I
want
to
say
some
of
your
life
events
mirror
my
life
events
that
I
don't
know
if
anybody
knows,
but
I
didn't
go
to
college,
I
did
graduate
from
high
school.
I
had
five
children
when
my
second
child
was
in
his
third
year
of
college.
He
said
to
me:
well,
I
think
I
think
you
just
need
a
couple
classes
to
get
your
degree,
because
I
had
talked
up
college
so
much.
I
never
went
to
college
my
third,
my
second
child
paid
for
my
first
college
class.
D
E
Thank
you
great.
Thank
you
for
sure
loops
chairman.
F
F
It
is
the
thing
that
is
the
easiest
to
be
pushed
aside
in
the
k-12
experience
just
because
of
a
lot
of
other
demands,
and
yet
it's
the
foundation
that
that
student
success
is
completely
built
on,
and
so
I'm
just
so
glad
an
organization
like
this
we're
very
fortunate
to
have
in
oakland
county,
and
you
certainly
have
leadership
of
your
board.
That
knows
a
little
thing
or
two
about
workforce
development.
So
I
hear
what
what
is
the
partnership
with
our
oakland
county
workforce
development
like
currently?
Are
there
referrals
coming
through
workforce
development?
F
Are
I
mean
maybe,
and
I
guess
what
other
opportunities
exist
there
I
mean
whether
we
can
use
those
facilities
to
be
places
if
tutoring
needs
to
happen
off-site
from
a
home
or
something
else.
Can
you
talk
a
little
bit
about
that,
or
even
what?
Maybe?
What's
strategically
on
the
horizon?
The
partnership
with
with
workforce
development,
camping.
H
I
look
at
my
first
development
in
the
michigan
works
offices
here
in
oakland
county
as
a
relationship
by
choice,
even
though,
because
we
are
we
o
funded
through
the
federal
government,
which
is
part
of
our
oh
sorry,
part
of
our
state
funding
with
which
we
actually
don't
get
state
funding,
because
literacy,
nonprofit
literacy
organizations
receive
no
state
funding,
but
we
do
get
some
pass-through
federal
funding
with
the
workforce,
innovation
and
opportunity
act,
which
requires
us
to
have
relationships
with
our
one-stop
shop
system.
H
We
would
anyways,
because
we
have
this
wonderful
relationship
with
all
of
the
five
offices
we
they
refer
people
to
us
quite
frequently.
We
also
assist
with
testing,
because
one
of
the
things
that
they
need
testing
for
is
the
casas
test
and
we
are
able
to
do
it
in
person
in
a
more
convenient
way
for
some
some
people,
especially
during
covid.
When
the
offices
were
shut
down,
we
were
able
to
provide
some
testing
for
people
who
didn't
have
the
computers
set
up
in
order
to
take
take
the
test
we
as
ascension.
H
H
If
you
will,
you
know
they
need
those
math
skills
and
those
reading
skills
to
be
up
to
a
level
where
they
can
get
those
certificates
and-
and
things
like
that,
so
I
think
there's
is
a
space
to
really
put
some
effort
into
that,
so
that
people
can
start
to
be
ready
to
take
that
next
step
so
that
they
can
go
to
occ,
even
those
that
have
high
school
diplomas.
We
know,
don't
always
have
the
skills
and
we're.
Seeing
more
of
that.
H
More
of
that,
as
you
might
imagine,
what
happened
under
cover
the
past
couple
of
years,
people
were
they
couldn't
measure
skills
as
well.
H
I
know
from
my
own
high
school
experience-
it's
not
the
same,
but
we
know
that
we
can
build
those
skills
so
that
they
can
go
into
training
programs
and
we're
working
with
the
closely
with
the
pontiac
office
to
do
an
integra,
integrated
education
and
training
program
for
a
cna
program
for
our
immigrant
community
and
trying
to
make
sure
that
we're
doing
those
english
language
skills
at
the
same
time
that
they
do
training
skills.
H
It's
for
those
with
reading
disabilities.
We
also
use
intensively
burlington
english
for
our
english
language
learners.
It's
an
online
program
that
people
can
work
on
independently,
but
also
gives
lessons
for
tutors
to
help
select
with,
and
they
work
extensively
with
that,
especially
in
the
virtual
environment
that
was
important.
We
also
have
a
large
selection
in
our
lending
library
for
tutors
that
are
all
nationally
recognized
materials.
H
One
of
the
things
that
we
really
pride
ourselves
at
is
trying
to
make
sure
we're
meeting
the
learner
goals,
whatever
those
learner
goals
might
be
and
matching
the
different
resources
that
we
have
with
that.
So
we
are
also
encouraging
all
our
adult
basic
education
students
and
our
esl
students
to
do
online
learning.
In
addition,
as
a
supplement
to
our
on
one-on-one
tutoring,
because
we
know
that
a
hundred
hours
really
starts
to
make
the
difference
and
in
the
tutoring
relationship
it's
hard
to
get
100
hours
in
a
year.
H
So
math
curriculum
we
have
a
phd
in
math
who's
running
our
math
program.
We
snapped
him
from
oakland
university.
He
was
really
he
taught
those
lowest
level
classes
and
we
are
using
breakthrough.
The
math
is
one
of
the
curriculums,
but
also
really
kind
of
custom,
designing
things
because
one
of
the
things
adults
have
that
kids,
don't
necessarily
have.
Is
they
have
these
holes
like
they're,
just
missing
that,
like
one
or
two
things
and
they've
learned
things
beyond
that,
but
never
quite
got
that
whole
piece.
H
I
don't
know
if
I'm
describing
that
well
and
so
he's
able
to
really
our
testing
identifies
some
of
those
pieces
and
really
focuses
a
little
bit
on
that.
He
was
talking
to
me
yesterday
around
fractions
and
ratios,
and
you
know
they
can't
reduce
a
fraction
and
then
they're
all
sudden
the
tutor
was
trying
to
do
x.
You
know
doing
the
ratios
with
an
x
he's,
like
he's
like.
H
No,
no,
no,
that's
like
you're
jumping
from
third
grade
to
ninth
grade,
so
he's
really
overseeing
a
lot
of
that
and
providing
that
support
to
tutors
and
training
them
and
really
giving
those
individualized
lessons
and
building
things.
Like
how
to
find
how
much
carpet
you
need
in
a
room,
you
know
so
those
practical
skills
that
I
think
are
very
important
for
an
adult.
F
Right
two:
more
questions:
partnership
with
libraries;
we
just
seem
that
there's
a
natural
intersection
and.
H
Our
libraries
have
been
fabulous,
I
mean
we
would
not
be
where
we
are
today
without
our
libraries
here
in
oakland
county
prior
to
the
pandemic,
mostly
almost
all
of
our
tutors
were
meeting
in
local
libraries.
Obviously,
this
changed
a
little
bit,
but
they've
been
great.
Our
tutor
coordinator
was
just
presenting
to
a
local
library
yesterday,
trying
to
recruit
more
tutors,
and
things
like
that
too.
So
they've
been
places
for
instruction
they've
been
places
for
referrals,
they've
been
places
that
are
just
generally
supportive
of
our
literacy
efforts.
Great
and
then.
F
H
No,
not
at
all
so
we
receive
about
eighty
four
thousand
dollars
from
federal
pass-through
funding.
We
receive
about
a
third
of
it
from
individual,
giving
with
the
lovely
donors
here
and
we've
got
some
foundation
funding.
H
We
did
have
some
funding
from
the
united
way
at
90
000
that
funded
our
pontiac
initiative,
but
they
that's
no
longer
part
of
the
budget.
So
there's
definitely
some
holes,
but
we
really
have
a
strong
mix
of
funding
sources,
but
there's
definitely
a
need
to
sustain
this
new
level
of
growth
over
the
past
couple
of
years,
with
digital
literacy
and
with
the
math
that
we've
really
made
some
huge
strides.
E
Thank
you,
chairman,
I'd
like
to
echo
my
colleagues
and
again,
thank
you
evelyn
for
sharing
your
story,
it's
truly
inspiring,
and
I
encourage
you
to
continue
telling
your
story.
So
thank
you.
Thank
you.
I'd
also
like
to
thank
lisa
john
ellen
and
sue
for
attending
today.
Building
strong
literate
communities
is
so
important.
It's
critical
and
I
most
certainly
will
be
supporting
an
increase
in
expanding
our
literacy
services.
So
thank
you
so
much
for
joining.
E
E
Motion
carries
before
we
move
on
to
our
next
regular
agenda
item.
Do
we
have
a
motion
to
receive
and
file
this
powerpoint
presentation
motioned
by
commissioner
joliette
support
by
commissioner
lubes?
All
those
in
favor
signify
by
saying
I
I
opposed
motion
carries
next
up
we'll
move
on
to
our
second
item.
Under
the
regular
agenda,
which
is
item
b
clerk
register
of
d,
it's
grant
acceptance
with
the
michigan
department
of
licensing
and
regulatory
affairs
for
the
2022
survey
and
remonumentation
grant.
H
Fred
miller,
deputy
is
my
deputy
and
what
I
I'm
going
to
say
a
tough
fact
to
follow.
I'm
glad
I
don't
have
a
big
ask
here.
C
H
C
C
For
a
minute,
but
that
was
just
so
moving
and
whenever
I've
you
know
march's
reading
month
and
I've
read
to
younger
kids,
I
always
tell
them
that
reading
is
a
superpower,
and
you
know
because
then
they
can
read
a
menu
themselves.
They
don't
have
to
rely
on
somebody
else.
They
can
see
it
do
not
enter
science.
So
what
a
great
program
anyway,
our
program,
if
you
remember
a
few
months
ago,
we
were
in
front
of
you
asking
if
we
could
apply
for
the
grant
which
we've
been
doing
for
decades.
C
This
is
us
really
getting
money
back
for
every
monumentation
program,
so
obviously
we're
just
now
saying:
can
we
accept
the
money
that
you've
already
said
we
could
apply
for?
So
it's
really
simple.
E
Motion
carries
thank
you.
Thank
you.
Next,
up
we'll
move
on
to
item
number
c
parks
and
recreation,
grand
acceptance
with
the
michigan
department
of
natural
resources
for
the
fiscal
year,
2022
off-road
vehicle
trail
improvement
fun.
Do
we
have
a
motion
motion
by
commissioner
luke's
support
by
commissioner
joliette
good
morning
melissa
good
morning?
Can
you
hear
me?
Okay,.
H
Yes,
okay,
perfect,
so
this
is
a
grant
from
the
dnr's
rv
trail
improvement
fund
for
the
second
portion
of
the
parking
lot
construction
project
out
at
hollyoaks
orb
park.
M
A
H
This
grant
will
let
us
complete
that
work,
which
our
folks
are.
It's
essentially
allowing
us
to
complete
the
berm
along
dixie
highway,
which
will
help
with.
E
All
righty
see
none
prompt
the
vote.
Please.
E
E
E
Valerie,
can
you
just
give
us
a
little
summary
of
this
agenda
item
before
us
this
morning?.
C
Yes,
the
sheriff's
department
requires
a
kind
of
an
extensive
background
check
for
their
new
hire.
So
what
happens
is
our
eligibility
list
is
good
for
six
months,
so
we
request
that
it
be
extended
for
the
full
year
so
that
when
the
sheriff's
department
is
in
the
process
of
a
background
check,
the
list
doesn't
expire
because
the
list
expires.
C
They
can't
hire
off
an
expired
list.
So
if
the
list
is
extended,
then
that
list
will
be
extended
while
that
they're
in
the
background
process.
E
Thank
you
you're
welcome,
commissioner
lubes.
C
C
Yes,
they're
from,
I
was
told,
there's
about
13
officers
that
does
this
along
with
their
their
job
as
well,
so
they're,
a
deputy,
too
they're,
also
doing
background
checks
as
well.
Thank
you.
You're
welcome.
C
E
M
I
just
wanted
to
bring
a
resolution
to
the
board,
offer
request
a
second
buyback
and
I'll
explain
what
that
is
so
right
now,
our
mayor,
one
of
our
merit
rules
allows
for
employees
who
have
60
hours
or
more
of
pto
time,
which
is
your
paid
time
off
bank
that
you
are
able
to
take
one
weeks
of
vacation
one
week
of
vacation
and
cash
that
out
throughout
the
year
as
long
as
you
have
60
hours
or
more,
we
typically
do
that
in
august
in
august.
M
M
Work
with
you
know,
have
people
at
their
house
that
are
also
sick,
and
so
what
happened
was
is
that
there
were
so
many
people
who
had
to
cover
for
all
of
those
shifts
as
well.
So
not
only
were
they
not
able
to
take
their
own
time
off,
then
they
were
also
working,
significant,
significant
amounts
of
overtime.
M
When
you
combine
that
with
people
who
are
losing
their
time,
you
have
supervisors
and
employees
who
are
trying
to
support
each
other
to
not
lose
their
time.
So
if
they
go
over
a
certain
amount
that
they're
allowed
to
keep,
they
actually
lose
the
times
kind
of
falls
off
their
banks,
if
you
will,
which
is
why
the
buyback
was
instituted
some
time
ago,
and
so
now
what's
happening.
M
Is
supervisors
are
trying
to
help
and
support
their
employees
by
not
losing
their
time
and
so
they're
having
to
take
like
a
friday
off
for
a
wednesday
off
just
to
try
to
keep
from
losing
their
time
and
it's
causing
again
some
of
those
challenges
as
it
relates
to
staffing.
So
I
am
requesting
that
we
allow
two
buybacks
this
year
for
fiscal
year
2022
and
that
will
come
out
of
fringe
benefit
fund.
It's
already
part
of
what
we
call
our
liabilities
in
that
fund.
M
E
You,
commissioners,
any
questions
comments
in
regards
to
this
agenda
item.
Commissioner,.
K
Juliette,
I
completely
understand
the
staffing
issue,
so
this
is
for
this
year
only
though
correct
this
one.
Okay,
thank
you.
Thank
you.
E
Motion
carries
next
up
we'll
move
on
to
our
next
item,
which
is
item,
f,
human
resources,
staffing
modification
to
create
a
chief
employee
and
labor
relations.
Oh,
am
I
right.
You
get
renumbered
to.
E
C
E
C
J
E
So,
according
clarification
at
the
onset
of
before
proving
the
agenda,
I
had
removed
items
f,
g,
nine,
f,
g
and
h
and
that'll
be
postponed
to
a
special
logo
media
next
week.
So
I
do
believe
with
the
refreshing
and
updating
of
our
curt
agenda.
Item
f
should
be
human
resources,
staffing
modification
to
create
a
chief,
employee
and
labor
relations,
officer,
classification
and
position.
Are
we
all
on
the
same
page?
Yes,
excellent.
Do
we
have
a
motion
motion
by
commissioner
loops
support
by
commissioner
jackson
and
again
and
welcome
w
lynch
thank.
M
You
so
for
those
that
don't
know
not
only
am
I
currently
a
deputy
county
executive.
M
I've
been
acting
hr
director
for
quite
some
time,
also
as
I
as
I
work
through
that
role,
trying
to
understand
some
of
the
needs
of
the
department,
so
one
of
our
most
heaviest
departments,
one
of
the
most
that
are
the
one
that
is
most
complex,
is
our
labor
relations
department,
which
covers
not
only
labor
cbas
or
collective
bargaining
agreements,
but
also
employee
matters,
so
any
type
of
whether
you're
union
or
non-union
any
kind
of
complaint,
or
any
issue
that
you
have
comes
into
that
department.
M
So
over
the
last
year,
we've
really
been
monitoring
what
what
it
is
that
we
need
in
our
overall
hr
department
and
we've
really
looked
at.
M
And
so
what
sorry?
Thank
you,
so
what
we've
been
really
focused
on
is
what
is
it
that
we
really
need
in
some
of
our
divisions
and
so
taking
a
look
at
our
labor
relations
need
our
issues
our
employees
are
bringing
tours
are
much
more
complex
now,
just
due
to
you
know,
just
the
changing
environments
and
things
of
that
nature
as
well.
M
As
you
know,
more
union
activity,
more
complaints,
just
more
folks
trying
to
you,
know
employees
trying
to
find
their
their
place
in
our
organization,
and
so,
as
I
looked
at
what
our
needs
were,
we
decided
that
we
had
a
position
open
in
that
unit
as
a
more
of
a
specialist
more
boots
on
the
ground.
But
in
talking
to
my
team
there,
some
of
the
experiences
we've
had.
M
We
feel
that
we'd
be
best
more
benefited
by
having
a
a
person
in
that
department
that
has
some
labor
law
experience
and
then
can
help
with
cheap
with
no
negotiating
union
contracts
and
support
the
director
with
that.
But
then
also
help
manage
some
of
the
complaints
that
we
might
get,
especially
as
they
come
into
the
more
complex
nature.
M
And
so,
with
that
request,
we
are
requesting
to
eliminate
a
full-time
position
and
a
part-time
position
also,
as
well
as
we'll
decrease
some
of
the
line
item
in
the
legal
services
which
has
been
steadily
decreasing
over
time
anyway.
And
I
think
that
having
somebody
with
the
legal
background
and
employment
law
will
also
lower
the
cost
for
some
legal
services
that
we
may
need
and
more
specific,
more
specifically,
to
human
human
resources.
Matters.
E
Thank
you
april.
What
will
this
officer
do
when
they're
not
negotiating
contracts?
From
my
understanding,
you
know
we
go
through
periods
of
opening
contracts
which
doesn't
happen
every
single
year.
So
what
will
this
individual
be
doing
when
they
aren't
working
actively
with
labor
contracts?
Sure.
M
Sure
so
the
labor
contracts
are
are,
as
you
noted,
more
or
less
frequent,
but
what
is
more
frequent
and
what
is
consistent?
Our
grievances
managing
the
actual
collective
bargaining
agreements.
This
person
would
also
be
a
direct
conduit
to
addressing
any
merit
rule
issues
helping
with
policy
creation.
M
We
have
also,
you
know
we
have
5
000
employees
right,
so
we
have
a
lot
of
investigations
that
happen.
A
lot
of
complaints
that
are
filed
will
help
make
sure
that
we
are
a
following
labor
law,
as
well
as
our
collective
bargaining
agreements
and
helping
support
any
type
of
other
investigation,
whether
it
be
eeoc
complaints,
violation
of
fmla
law,
they
will
support
and
help
the
team
with
ada
requests
and
things
of
that
nature.
M
E
And
what
would
you
say
and
again
I
know
this
can
fluctuate
a
little
bit,
especially
in
more
recent
times
where
I
know
that,
there's
an
increase
of
individuals,
employees
joining
the
union
over
the
past
couple
years.
What
would
you
say
is
the
average
number
of
grievances.
M
I
don't
have
that
in
front
of
me,
so
it's
a
lot
of
them,
don't
even
get
to
grievances
because
we
mediate
before
it
gets
there.
So
I
would
say
that
when
it
comes
down
to
investigations,
though
they
have
at
least
five
or
six
going
on
at
one
time.
So
would
this.
E
Chief
officer
be
a
part
of
a
mediation,
then.
M
Yes,
they
would
have
to
go
to
aggregate.
Yes,
they
would
help
support
the
the
union
representatives,
as
well
as
the
help
convene
the
departments,
and
we
talk
through
it
things
of
that
nature,
to
make
sure
that
again
that
we
all
understand
the
scope
of
the
issue
and
work
through
that.
E
And
lastly,
were
there
any
conversations
in
regards
to
potentially
taking
a
look
at
this
specific
position
as
a
consult
contract
position?
Just
given
I
mean
I,
I
definitely
have
heard
you
shared
that
there
is
a
potential
for
an
increase
in
grievances,
but
in
light
of
this
specific
position
being
geared
more
towards
labor
contract
negotiations
and
knowing
that
that
doesn't
happen
frequently
was
there
any
consideration
of
taking
a
look
at
having
a
contract
employee.
M
M
Things
that
we
do
heading
things
off
of
past,
noticing
a
pattern
of
maybe
something
in
a
particular
department
and
help
support
that
so
the
actual
chief
negotiator
piece
of
that
is
actually
the
least
of
what
I
would
see
them
doing,
because
the
hr
director
or
myself
in
this
role
would
still
continue
to
do
some
chief
negotiating.
But
we
do
have
multiple
unions
on
that
side
too.
So
I
know
it's
called.
M
Thank
you,
yeah,
and
so
also
as
we
were
looking
for
hr
directors,
we're
having
a
hard
time
finding
people
that
have
either
either
if
they
have
labor
experience,
but
they
don't
have
any
other
hr
experience
or
they
have
a
ton
of
experience
in
in
what
I
call
the
normal
hr
process,
but
they
don't
have
labor
relations
experience.
So
by
having
this
position,
this
may
help
us
open
up
the
door
to
a
little
bit
more
flexibility
in
who
we
would
hire
in
as
an
hr
director.
Excellent.
E
Thank
you,
chairman
woodward.
F
Thank
you,
man
chuck,
so
I
mean
I
think,
it's
important
to
point
out
the
way.
The
pay
for
this
new
position
is
the
elimination
of
two
other
positions
and
a
reduction.
In
the
I
mean
the
legal
line
item,
because
this
person
will
be
able
to
help
offset
something
so
it
doesn't.
It
won't
impair
your
ability
to
do
your
things
and
so
there's
like
no
additional
cost.
This
is
a
restructuring
of
a
department
to
create
this
role.
To
do
what
you
exactly
said,
the
the
strategic
partner,
hopefully
to
mitigate
problems
before
they
become
problems.
F
I
identify
trends
to
address,
so
they
know
become
problems
as
well
as
providing
all
the
support
to
our
in
the
labor
relations
space.
So
I
mean
I
think
I
mean
with
that
and
the
fact
that
this
is
not.
This
is
not
a
new
it's
a
new
position,
but
it's
a
position:
that's
created
by
the
elimination
of
others
and
a
reduction
in
another
line
item
to
pay
for
what
the
new
position
would
be,
and
so
I
think
with
that,
I'm
supportive.
F
J
Just
to
add
on
to
what
chair
woodward
just
mentioned,
this
position
replaces
an
unfilled
hr
analyst
labor
relations
position.
The
two
other
individuals
that
are
currently
working
is
that
their
position
they're
still
there.
No,
they
won't.
Are
they
analysts
the.
J
E
Excellent
commissioners,
any
other
commissioner.
D
E
To
kind
of
piggyback
off
of
commissioner
lubes,
will
this
be
posted
internally
or
externally?
Well,
both
excellent
nice,
commissioner.
K
Julia,
that
was
my
question,
was
in
regards
to
the
interview
process
and
how
they
will
be.
M
K
Okay,
I
completely
see
the
need
for
this
just
with
all
of
the
the
contracts
that
have
come
through
and
all
the
supplementals
and
everything
else
so
yeah.
E
F
D
M
E
Four
yay
one
day
motion
carries
next
up,
we'll
move
on
to
the
next
item,
which
is
item,
number
g
or
item
g,
human
resources
policy,
adopting
a
hybrid
work
policy
and
again
welcome
w
lynch.
Do
we
have
a
motion
motion
by
commissioner
doliat
support
by
commissioner
lups.
M
M
We're
not
really
changing
much
other
than
you
know,
as
we
have
before
it
will
be
a
decision
to
be
made
by
each
department
director
and
how
that
fits
in
their
workload
and
making
sure
that
services
are
properly
delivered
to
our
to
our
residents.
We
are
not
recommending
or
encouraging
any
time
of
full-time
at
home,
we're
looking
at
more
of
a
hybrid
which
seems
to
be
pretty
typical,
which
is
about
you
know,
maintaining
it
no
less
than
50
percent
within
the
office.
M
What
you
have
before
here
here,
though,
is
the
policy
that
would
be
attached
to
it
right
now.
There
is
no
policy
and
what
we
really
wanted
to
take
a
look
at
was
you
know?
How
does
this
work
as
we
move
forward,
and
so
you'll
see
things
in
here
specifically
dedicated
to
risk
management,
I.t
issues,
anything
that
relates
to
just
clarification.
M
One
of
the
things
that's
interesting
about
hybrid
work
models
throughout
the
country
is
that,
while
you
might
have
two
people
in
the
same
classification,
not
everybody
works
well
in
a
hybrid
or
is
able
to
work
in
that
environment
and
may
not
be
able
to
to
work
from
home
and
then
as
well
as
just
some
classifications,
just
aren't
able
to
work
from
home
like
if
you
can't
do
your
do
your
work
and
you
have
to
be
there
to
you,
know
to
tactilely
touch
it.
M
M
It
should
be
the
same
process
and
again
you'll
have
some
departments
who
embrace
this
model,
others
it
doesn't
maybe
doesn't
work
for
them,
and
that's
okay
as
well,
so
we're
just
allowing
the
flexibility
for
departments
to
make
that
decision,
but
also
with
parameters
so
that
people
know
and
understand
what
that
looks
like
just
for
point
of
reference
wayne
wayne
county,
macomb,
county
and
kent
county
are
also
going
to
maintain
a
hybrid
work
policy
as
well.
M
So
they'll
continue
on
that
in
that
realm
as
well,
so
we
are
always
going
to
be
paying
attention
and
making
sure
that
still
works
and
again
really
relying
on
our
department,
directors
and
division
leaders
to
make
sure
that
you
know
they're.
On
top
of
of
that
work
performance
with
their
employees.
M
I
will
also
say
that
one
of
the
key
components
to
this
is
that
I
think
most
of
us
who
are
have
been
in
the
hiring
process
have
not
have
not
experienced
an
interview
that
has
not
asked
if
we're
going
to
continue
or
allow
for
remote
work.
I
know
anecdotally.
I
can
tell
you
that
we
have
had
two
positions
that
we
have
tried
to
hire
that
we
could
not
provide.
M
This
didn't
was
not
going
to
be
a
regular
ability
to
do
remote
and
we
lost
two
candidates
because
of
that,
so
it
is
when
I
talk
to
most
of
our
department.
Directors
who
are
in
an
administrative
function
have
experienced
the
same
thing
that
right
now,
that
is
a
a
huge
hiring
plus
if
that
makes
sense.
E
Excuse
me
thank
you
april.
One
of
the
questions
that
you
have.
I
know
that
you
mentioned
that
that
you're
within
this
policy
you're
maintaining
no
less
than
50
out
of
the
office.
E
M
E
As
it
stands
within
this
policy,
is
it
safe
to
say
that
it
is
up
to
the
discretion
of
the
department,
so
it
is
hybrid.
E
E
Okay,
excellent
and
then
I
know
too,
we've
had
some
conversations
in
regards
to,
let's
potentially
say
this
work
policy
is
adopted,
do
departments
have
I
love
the
fact
that
departments
get
to
choose
how
they
would
like
to
adopt
this
as
it
fits
their
needs
within
the
department
and,
let's
face
it.
We've
got
a
variety
of
different,
dynamic
and
diverse
departments
here,
so
I
do
love
the
fact
that
departments
get
to
choose
how
to
incorporate
this
hybrid
work
policy
within
their
departments.
E
E
M
M
So
there
really
is
no
shift
or
change
in
that
it
really
has
no
again
where
they
do.
Their
work
is
really
between
the
department
director,
the
division
header,
their
supervisor,
making
sure
that
how
they're
measuring
performance
now
in
the
office
would
be
the
same
at
home
because
they
may
have
you
know
each
department,
head
or
division
leader
may
have
a
different
way
of
monitoring
that
when
they're
at
home,
depending
on
their
workload,
but
I
wouldn't
see
much
of
a
difference.
Okay
and
just.
E
Lastly,
I
know
that
there's
a
little
statement
in
regards
to
training
has
department,
heads
or
supervisors
been
privy
to
any
training
in
regards
to
adopting
a
hybrid
workplace
leading
up
to
the
creation
of
this
policy.
Sure
we
actually.
M
F
Thank
you
and
madam
chair,
I
mean
this
is
certainly
something
that's
coming
in
the
world
I
mean
I
I'm
sharing
hannah,
tell
a
story
of
a
a
friend
of
mine
who
has
a
small
business,
has
12
employees
very
much
said
in
his
ways.
It's
like.
I
worked
in
an
office
everyone's
going
to
work
in
an
office
and
then
the
first
person
left,
then
the
second
person
left
and
then
half
of
them
have
left
and
then
he
says
I
might
have
to
change
because
he
can't
get
people
to
I'm
going
to
fill
these.
F
I
mean
these
roles.
I
think
this
is
a
part
of
the
way
things
have
been
doing
and
someone
who's
been
working
in
some
remote
capacity
for
20
years.
I
mean,
I
think
the
transition
during
the
pandemic
was
easy
for
me,
but
I
mean
it
was
a
jolt
to
the
system.
There's
no
question,
and
as
and
and
I
love
the
the
thought
that
particularly
there's
things
you
don't
think
about,
and
it's
not
as
simple
as
like.
F
Okay,
so
you're
sitting
in
your
cubicle
doing
policy
research
for
something
and
then
that
person
doing
the
exact
same
work
at
a
computer
in
a
home
office.
Well,
then,
there's
worker
comp
implications.
There's
I
mean
all
these
other
types
of
things
is
because
they
are.
They
are
an
employee
of
the
organization.
F
Therefore,
we
are
also
equally
responsible
for
all
those
types
of
things
from
it:
legal
insurance
and
all
those
types
of
things
that
adds
a
level
of
complexity,
and
I
know
that
I
mean
a
lot
of
work
has
gone
into
kind
of
checking,
going
through
all
those
those
boxes
to
make
sure
they're,
safe
working
conditions
to
make
certain
that
it
doesn't
interfere
with.
I
mean
other
other
obligations.
F
At
the
same
time.
I
also
understand
that
there's
I
mean
for
some
there's
an
anxiety
like
okay.
Are
we
going
to
get
the
same
level
of
work
and
outcome,
and
I
mean
I
think
there
is
a
level
of
trust
and
responsibility
that
we
have
to
put
in
in
in
in
in
the
hands
of
managers
and
directors
and
department
heads
to
ensure
that
the
the
productivity
and
output
of
these
departments,
the
services
they
need
to
provide,
have
to
continue
to
be
maintained,
and
it's
gonna
require
some.
F
I
mean
it's
probably
some
different
management
styles,
I
mean
because
we
wouldn't
have
everyone
in
the
same
place,
but
moving
in
this
direction,
I
think
I
mean
is
the
right
thing
to
do.
That
being
said,
it
is
also,
I
think,
we're
gonna
learn
a
lot.
I
mean,
I
think
a
lot
of
us
are
moving
in
this
I
mean
formally
in
the
structure
and
still
fairly
new,
and
so
we're
going
to
have
to
come
back,
and
I
think
we
should
be
open
to
reviewing
and
making
modifications
and
learning
from
this.
F
I
think
I
mean
that
is
a
healthy
way
and
I
mean
as
the
as
the
the
policy-making
body
I
mean
the
governing
body
here
in
the
county
one
I
want
to
ensure,
at
least
in
the
beginning
stages
that
we're
I
mean
being
able
to
do
this,
and
I
I
did
have
an
opportunity
to
talk
to
deputy
lynch
yesterday
and
so
I
well.
F
E
F
Many
of
you
know
that
I
got
back
late
yesterday,
so
I
mean
this
is
a
development
in
progress,
but
but
adding
an
amendment
so
adding
an
amendment
to
this
overall
resolution,
allowing
some
I
mean
moving
this
forward
as
is
and
allowing
a
duration,
and
I
I
mean
I
recommend
like
18
months
after
the
adoption
of
this
resolution,
of
which
time
we
can
come
back
and
re.
I
mean
it
basically
sets
a
point
that
we're
going
to
come
back
and
review,
make
any
appropriate
change.
F
We
can
make
changes
before
we
can
extend
beforehand
at
the
end
of
that
18
period
of
time
to
come
on,
I
mean
to
be
able
to
advance
it
to
I
mean
for,
however
long
and
something
like
this,
and
I
think
this
may
be
applies
to
other
policies
outside
the
scope.
It's
maybe
not
a
bad
idea
to
have
a
a
cyclical
review
of
policies
going
forth
so,
but
with
a
for
a
first
be
a
further
resolve.
F
Clause
of
the
hybrid
policy
will
remain
in
effect
for
18
months,
following
the
adoption
of
this
resolution
and
may
be
extended
by
approval
of
the
oakland
county
board
of
commissioners.
That's
the
first
part
two,
and
I
think
this
is
a
little
related
to
with
the
which
are
nelson
was
talking
about.
F
F
So
in
theory,
we
should
get
like
three
reports
over
the
period
of
time
that
in
that
last
one
coming
about
the
time
when
we
would
in
likelihood
extend,
but
what
should
be
contained
in
that-
and
I
think,
if
departments
are
supposed
to,
I
mean,
are
implementing
this
and
there
will
be
some
variation.
They
probably
should
be
submitting
plans
to
hr.
This
is
how
we
plan
to
implement
this,
and
so
cop.
F
I
mean
that
these
reports
shall
include,
but
not
be
limited
to,
and
I
listed
five
things
that
I
thought
I
mean,
as
I've
talked
to
others,
that
it
come
up
on
a
regular
basis,
copies
of
all
the
department,
specific
plans
for
implementing
the
high
on
the
hybrid
work
policy,
evaluation,
department
function
and
performance
and
productivity
impact
on
employee
recruitment
and
retainment,
which
is
one
I
mean
one
of
the
driving
forces
that
we're
also
I
mean
implementing
this
effect
and
department,
work,
culture
and
then
recommend
I
mean
and
then
allowing
like
any
recommendations
or
suggestions
to
improve
the
hybrid
word
policy.
F
If
you
probably
have
the
word
the
in
there
at
least,
though
that
maybe
it
can
include
other
things
and
other
data
and
as
it
aligns
with,
I
mean
other
organizational
county
organizational
goals.
I
would
call
that
a
starting
point,
so
is
that
right,
absolutely.
E
Thank
you.
I
I
know
that
you
and
I
and
april
even
we,
we
have
talked
a
lot
about
this
language
and
here's
the
thing
it's
very
clear
that
we
are
not
returning
to
a
workplace.
We
left
prior
to
the
pandemic
and
truly,
as
we
do
move
forward
into
the
future
hybrid
work
models.
I
think
we're
going
to
see
a
lot
more
than
we
already
are
and
let's
face
it,
we've
been
saying
this
gosh,
I'm
almost
40
and
I
feel
like
I've
been
saying
this.
My
whole
life
technology
is
the
future
right.
E
So
with
that
being
said,
I
also
understand
that
adopting
a
work
hybrid
policy
is
much
easier
than
creating
an
effective
workplace.
So
with
that
in
this
language,
I
do
think
it
is
in
the
best
interest
that
we
do
have
some
touch
base
points
along
the
way,
especially
with
the
this
being
something
new
that
we're
implementing.
E
I
think
that
it's
a
good
practice,
especially
in
this
first
18
months
of
implementation,
to
have
something
within
this
resolution
that
does
have
that
checkpoint
to
make
sure
that
we
still
are
maintaining
an
efficient,
productive
workflow
across
the
county.
So
I
do
appreciate
the
collaboration
on
this
amendment,
so
thank
you.
Both
chairman.
F
And
I
think
we
related
to
that,
and-
and
maybe
deputy
lynch
mentioned,
the
I
mean
other
counties
are
looking
looking
to
continue.
I
mean
given
the
size
of
our
organization,
I
think
you're
doing
this.
I
would
expect
smaller
local
governments
and
other
entities
looking
to
open
county
and
say
how
are
you
doing
it
and
lifting
it
lifting
it
up
so
that
they
can
replicate
it?
So
I
mean
I
really
do
think
this
is
a
model,
the
framework
of
a
model
moving
forward,
and
I
think
we're
going
to
learn
a
lot
over
the
next
thing.
F
F
I
mean
provides
especially
if
it
means
that
we
get
the
talent
that
we
want
in
this
county
that
we're
struggling
to
recruit
in
some
cases,
especially
if
it
means
that
we
can
provide
service
to
the
public
in
a
better,
more
efficient
way
that
we
lift
employee
morale
to.
I
mean
help
cyclically,
reinforce
that
so
good.
K
Joliette,
yes,
I
see
the
future
is
obviously
doing
hybrid.
After
my
son's
been
interviewing
and
different
things.
Thankfully
he
has
a
job,
but
it's
been
one
of
the
negotiation
factors
after
reading
the
policy.
In
my
past
experience,
there's
a
thing
in
here
about
a
safe
workplace,
putting
personal
weapons.
M
Sure
it
was
just
again:
we've
been
talking
to
risk
management
and
trying
to
make
sure
we
covered
all
of
our
bases,
just
making
sure
that
everybody
is
in
the
safest
working
spot
that
they
can.
We
would
not
no
we're
not
encouraging
anybody
to
come.
We
don't
want
them
doing
any
business
with
like
clients
or
anything
at
their
home,
but
it's
just
an
acknowledgement
to
make
sure
that
they're
in
a
safe
working
environment.
K
M
F
M
F
I
think
this
is
like
it
raises
up.
One
of
the
the
challenging
aspects
here
is
like
when,
if
they're
working
I
mean,
if
they're
working
as
an
employee
of
the
county
in
a
space,
that's
sanctioned
by
the
county
that
space
that
they're
working
falls
under
us
right.
So
I
mean
I,
I
think,
the
practicality
of
like
going
in
and
inspecting
your
home
office
and
like
making
me
making
sure
that
plugs
are,
I
mean?
That's
that's
not
likely
to
happen.
F
F
But
that's
what
makes
what
on
one
level
is
a
very
simple
thing
like
do
the
stuff
that
you
would
just
do
here
there
it's
much
more
complicated.
K
Yeah-
and
I
I
get
some
of
the
other
wording-
it's
just
in
the
past-
my
past
experience
in
government
it
it's
kind
of
pointless
to
put
things
in
that
can't
be
enforced
or
measured.
One
other
comment
I
so
you're
recommending
a
50
hybrid
I'd
like
to
see
that
a
little
bit
more
than
a
recommendation,
it's
easier
to
give
things
than
take
things
away,
and
does
this
open
up
because
it's
department
to
department
does
this
open
up
any
arena
for
grievances
within
unions?
K
M
That's
why
we
made
it
very
fluid,
because
every
department
will
be
different.
That's
why
I
didn't
specifically
say
how
much
you
have
to
be
here,
because
some
departments
might
do
they
actually
have
more
option
to
be
at
home
because
most
of
their
stuff
is
at
home.
So
it's
just
one
of
those
things,
but
the
the
grievances
really
is.
That's
why
we
kind
of
cleaned
it
up
and
made
sure
we
had
those
parameters.
We
did
have.
M
One
of
our
main
unions,
who's
in
the
administrative
function,
take
a
look
at
it,
but
that's
why
we
are
it's
a
little
it's
more
on
the
flexible
side,
because
what
somebody
needs
at
you
know
in
an
at
the
clerk's
office
might
be
different
than
what
someone
needs
at
the
treasures
office,
which
might
be
something
different
at
wrc.
So
that's
why
we
kept
it
pretty
fluid.
N
M
M
M
So
they
understand
that
okay,
now,
where
it
will
get
interesting
or
and
just
be
honest
and
where
we're
working
through
that
and
understand
that
is,
as
I
mentioned
before,
you
might
have
one
person
in
one
classification
that
can
work
from
home
and
another
one
may
not
be
able
to
work
from
home
because
they're
not
making
their
pre
they're,
not
producing
right.
So
there'll
be
some
conversations
and
plans
with
that
particular
person.
So
they'll
always
be
a
reason.
M
Why
that
you
know
this
person
can't
work
from
home,
but
this
person
can
so
we've
made
that
very
clear
to
departments
and
we'll
make
that
clear
in
the
training
that
not
one
size
fits
all.
We
have
actually
two
extremes
that
I
hear
you've
got
your
three
really.
You've
got
those
that
do
well
with
just
a
couple
days
or
one
day
at
home,
others
who
don't
do
well
at
all
at
home
and
others
who
actually
don't
turn
off
at
home.
M
So
you
can
have
all
three
of
those
different
factors
so
we'll
we've
definitely
made
it
very
clear
that
there'll
be
a
lot
of
concrete
examples
or
concerns
brought
forward
as
quickly
as
possible
so
that
we
can
address
those,
but
do
understand
that
one
employee
and
one
classification
may
be
able
to
do
that,
but
not
maybe
not
the
same
or
maybe
one
department
does
it.
But
another
department
has
the
same
classifications
and
they're,
not
allowing
that
that's
again,
why
we
try
to
make
it
as
fluid
as
possible.
Okay,
but
that's
a
good.
J
Commissioner
jackson,
thank
you
chair
the
hybrid
work
agreement.
That's
within
our
packet,
it
is
broken
down
in
between
non-exempt
employees
and
exempt
employees,
and
so
historically,
even
hybrid
work
working
from
home
usually
was
most
cases
reserved
for
exempt
employees
because
it
was
looked
at
as
a
perk.
J
Yes,
so
now
as
we're
offering
it
to
all
levels
of
employees,
how
I
mean
looking
at
the
work
schedule
and
I'm
in
a
department
manager
managing
the
days
of
the
week,
because
human
nature
sure
people
are
going
on
mondays
or
fridays
to
work
at
home
and
so
in
a
union
environment.
Of
course
things
are
ranked
in
seniority
and
tenure,
but
in
the
regular
work
environment,
how
will
we
be
able
to
protect
ourselves
from
employees
that
are
going
to
be
wanting
mondays
or
fridays,
the
whole
department?
J
M
I
think,
at
the
end
of
the
day,
we'll
work
individually
with
each
department
to
work
through
that.
I
think
that
most
people
want
to
be
able
to
do
this,
so
they
work
together
to
make
sure
that
everybody
can
get
what
they
need,
and
so
the
schedule
is
really
just
in
mind
to
have
some
so
that
we
don't
constantly
have
this
kind
of
okay.
Today,
you're
working
from
home
tomorrow,
you're
not
so
so
far
so
good,
and
especially
those
that
I
oversee
that
they've
all
established
who's
in
who's.
M
M
I
have
not
seen
that
as
an
issue
you
know
and
the
other
it's
important
to
to
make
sure
that
we're
monitoring
our
non-exempt
making
sure
they
have
a
schedule
because
they
are
hourly,
and
so
they
have
to
follow
the
same
rules
and
you
know
educating
making
sure
that
they're
taking
their
lunch
break
and
all
of
that
kind
of
all
of
those
pieces
that
go
into
to
all
of
that.
So
and
so
far
it's
working
well.
L
M
But
that's
a
very
good
question
yeah,
so
those
are
some
of
the
things
that
we're
going
to
be
working
for
working
through
as
we
move
into
choose
to
versus,
have
to,
and
so
they'll
be
we'll
be
constantly,
probably
re-evaluating,
and
so
having
changes
into.
This
will
not
be
surprising
to
me
as
we
work
through.
What's
working.
What's
not
so
this.
M
C
M
E
From
equity
standpoint,
has
there
been
any
discussion
in
regards
to
what
happens
when
an
employee
would
like
to
adopt
that
hybrid
work
model,
but
they
can't
a
variety
of
different.
You
know
barriers
out
some
simpler,
easier
ones
for
conversation
sake.
So
what
happens
if
they
don't
have
internet
what
happens
if
they
don't
have
a
secure
internet?
What
happens
if
they
don't
have
a
fast
internet,
speed
or
maybe
even
a
working
environment
within
their
home,
that
they
would
be
able
to
conduct
work
confidentially
and.
M
So
we
actually
had
that
conversation
as
well
and
part
of
our
training
will
be
to
make
sure
that
we
identify
or
give
a
safe
space
for
employees
to
come
forward
to
say
that
they
may
not
have
the
tools
to
do
that.
But
still
could
be
able
to
do
that.
So
we
haven't
sure
how
we're
going
to
work
through
that.
Yet.
But
we
do
recognize
that
there
could
be
some
folks
that
do
not
have
the
capabilities
because
they
don't
have
internet
service
or
whatnot.
So
we'll
have
to
work
through
those
on
a
case-by-case
scenario.
M
E
Thank
you
and
just
final
question.
I
know
that
in
one
of
the
very
first
couple
sentences
within
the
hybrid
work
policy,
it
shares
that
the
the
purpose
of
this
hybrid
work
program
is
to
help
the
county
reduce
real
estate
and
energy
costs.
Have
we
sold
any
property?
Are
we
anticipating
selling
property
sure
we're
lurking.
M
Remember
we're
we're
are
working
right
now
with
plant
marine.
What's
called
the
work
from
home
study
just
to
see
about
if
we
were
to
decrease
the
number
of
folks,
like
maybe
shared
cubicles
or
whatnot,
could
we
reduce
space?
We
have
about
five
buildings
right
now.
That
would
do
us
better
to
not
be
online
anymore.
I'm
not
sure
if
we'll
get
to
that.
E
A
Amendment
are
they:
are
these
paragraphs
going
to
be
added
as
the
second
and
third,
or
is
one
of
them
going
to
be
replacing
the
first
that
references,
reporting.
E
Seeing
none,
let's
do
a
prompt.
The
vote
for
woodward's
amendment
to
this
item.
E
E
E
However,
I
want
to
stress
and
emphasize
I
do
support
a
hybrid
working
model
and
I-
and
I
know
this
is
the
wave
of
the
future
there's
just
some
things-
I'd
like
to
gain
a
little
bit
more
clarification
on
outside
of
government.
I
definitely
am
a
part
of
that
action
with
a
hybrid
work
model
within
government
there's
some
things.
I
would
like
to
get
a
little
bit
more
clarification
on
in
just
regards
to
the
efficiency
and
productivity
component.
E
So
as
this
moment
I
will
be
supporting
no,
but
I
am
definitely
hopeful
that
within
the
next
week
I
will
gain
some
further
additional
information,
so.
F
F
G
E
K
And
I
echo
your
thoughts
and
that
I
completely
support
a
hybrid
work
schedule.
There
is
a
little
bit
government
part
of
it
is
a
little
bit.
I
just
need
some
more
clarification
on
versus
private
and
also
the
time
breakdown,
but
so
I'm
going
to
vote
no
at
this
time,
but
I
do
support
it.
I
just
need
to
get
some
more
clarification
on
other
things.
E
At
least
I
will
yeah,
commissioner
juliet
we
could
definitely
talk
and
communicate
with
you
april
yeah
right
right,
most
certainly
yeah,
most
certainly,
commissioners.
Any
further
discussion
on
this
item
alrighty
see
none
roll
call.
Please.
C
J
K
E
Nelson,
no,
madam.
E
Three
a's
two
nays
motion
carries
thank
you.
W
lynch.
E
Next
up
we'll
move
on
to
item
h,
which
is
the
board
of
commissioners:
appointments
to
regional
convention
facility
authorities,
citizens
advisory
council
commissioners:
do
we
have
a
motion
motion
to
re?
I'm
sorry,
a
motion
to
reappoint
motioned
by
commissioner
loops
support
by
commissioner
joliette.
E
I
do
believe
in
my
speaking
on
this
one:
there's
nobody
right
here:
okay,
commissioners,
just
as
a
point
of
reference
in
our
communication
item
that
we
further
or
we
discussed
at
the
beginning,
this
appointment
of
mavita
burris,
I
believe,
was
within
that
document
and
I'm
going
to
throw
it
over
to
chairman.
I
do
know
that
mavita
burst
has
been
a
part
of
this
advisory
council
for
for
many
years
and
she
is
seeking
reappointment.
F
Chairman
right,
so
I
that
was
the
first
thing.
I
thought
this
was
the
actual
regional
convention
board,
but
this
is
the
advisory,
the
citizen
advisory
council,
which
I
think
was
created
by
statute.
I
don't
remember
all
so.
I
think
it's
like
the
citizen
advisory
on
top
of
the
board.
So
this
is
not
the
actual
board
appointment.
F
That
makes
the
decision,
and
I
and
I
know
this
appointee-
I
mean
well-
and
I
think,
she's
great
what
this
topic,
what
was
actually
helpful-
and
I
don't
know
if
who
has
been
to
tcf
or
future
huntington
in
a
while.
A
tremendous
amount
of
renovations
have
happened
at
that
facility.
F
I
I
mean
the
the
well
the
disruption
of
the
pandemic,
the
cause
of
the
auto
show
and
a
series
of
other
things.
There
are
very
few
facilities
in
this
world
that
can
actually
handle
what
it
takes
to
put
on
that
show,
and
it
might
it
wouldn't.
It
might
not
be
a
bad
idea
to
have
either
have
our
citizen
advisory
as
well
as
maybe
members
of
the
board
or
the
executive
director
of
the
convention
authority
to
come
and
give
an
update.
F
This
is
like
what
we're
doing,
and
maybe
even
I
mean
have
a
tour
of
some
of
the
things,
because
the
it's
one
thing
to
see
the
stuff
and
there's
some
really
great
things.
I
mean
optically
to
be
able
to
see,
but
it's
the
behind
the
the
behind-the-scenes
operation
that
I
think
has
been
really.
I
mean
incredible
for
for
the
region,
so
I
mean
it
is.
I
saw
it
on
the
agenda
when
I
was
reviewing
them
like.
Oh,
I
haven't
heard
from
them
in
a
while,
but
they
their
revenue
comes
through
largely
through.
E
Excellent,
thank
you
chairman
and
commissioner.
This
is
a
reminder.
Her
resume
was
also
uploaded
in
the
attached
documents
very
highly
qualified
to
continue
on
from
my
reading
and
perspective
and,
as
chairman
said,
what
a
a
wonderful
individual
and
I
will
be
moving
forward
with
supporting
her
reappointment.
K
F
E
It
sounded
very
active
board
which
I
bring
that
up,
because
it
really
doesn't
come
before
us
often
right.
This
is
a
four-year
appointment
and
I
want
to
say
that
it's,
I
don't
think
it
was
four
years
ago
right
when
we
had
this
come
before
us
in
the
lago
committee.
I
believe,
okay.
F
I
remember
being
months
and
months
of
deliberation
in
the
halls
of
lansing
that
one
time
I
mean
the
financials
of
the
operation
are
are
in
good
position.
The
upgrades
the
facility,
the
management
issues
in
the
past,
that
I
mean
at
least
seemingly
from
my
vantage
point,
are
I
mean
good?
There
is
a
there
is
another
board
that
actually
is
like
the
decision
making
that
hires
the
director
or
the
executive
director
of
the
the
convention
there.
F
This
I
understand
the
citizen
advisory
council
was
set
up
to
be
a
clearing
house
for
other
issues
that
might
come
up
in
the
it
can
move
from
everything
like
well.
How
do?
How
does
our
region
more
participate
in
trade
expedition?
Over
that
I
mean,
I
think
it
was.
I
mean
to
make
certain.
There
was
even
greater
citizen
input,
and
it
was,
I
think,
part
of
a
compromise
of
that
legislation,
but
that's
going
back
many
many
years
in
my
memory,
banks.
E
About
what's
happening,
I
can
reach
out
to
lego
staff
and
see
if
we
can
have
them
come
before
us,
because
it
has
been
a
couple
years
so
most
certainly
so.
Commissioners,
any
other
further
discussion
on
the
reappointment
of
mavida
burris
see
none
promptable.
Please.
E
Motion
carries
next
up
we'll
move
on
to
item
number
I,
which
is
board
of
commissioners
resolution,
support
for
human
trafficking,
house
bills,
4091
4113
and
4214
4215,
and
I
do
believe
we
have
commissioner
kowal
who
will
be
joining
us
virtually
to
speak
on
behalf
of
this
before
we
jump
on
over
to
commissioner
colwall.
Do
we
have
a
motion
motion
by
commissioner
jackson
support
by
commissioner
joliette
good
morning,
commissioner,
cole
law.
A
Sorry
about
that,
I'm
having
issues
with
my
camera.
I
think
I've
got
it
now.
Thank
you,
madam
chair,
for
allowing
me
to
testify
to
these
this
resolution.
Today.
These
bills
are
very
important.
They
are
helping
us
continue
down
the
multi-pronged
approach
to
combat
ht
and
they
cover
three
major
areas,
one
being
the
traffickers,
another
being
the
victims
and
another
being
training.
A
It
also
alters
the
way
we
look
at
victims
by
removing
the
word
prostitution
from
all
the
laws
and
referring
to
commercial
commercial
sexual
activity
instead,
because
words
really
do
matter,
and
since
we
passed
the
safe
harbor
law,
we've
continued
to
refine
and
come
up
with
more
laws
that
sorry
that
you
know
help
the
victims
in
the
way
that
they
can
have
rebuttable
presumption.
They
have
expungement
measures
now
that
these
bills
would
provide
for
them,
because
it's
not
just
the
sexual
activity.
A
Often
these
victims
are
forced
to
commit
other
crimes
while
being
under
the
you
know
the
thumb
of
these
these
traffickers
and
also
it's
very
important
to
expand
training
standards
and
the
number
of
people
that
are
trained
to
recognize
it,
because
sometimes
people
might
see
it
and
not
not
realize
what
it
what's
going
on
right
under
their
nose,
so
having
more
people
trained
is
is,
can
only
can
only
help
the
situation,
and
I
just
would
urge
everybody
and-
and
I
thank
commissioner
jackson
as
well-
for
chairing
the
ht
task
force
and
together
we
introduced
this
resolution
to
hopefully
bring
some
pressure
on
the
folks
in
lansing
to
take
this
legislation
up
because
it
was
introduced
last
year
february.
A
I
believe-
and
nothing
has
happened
since,
and
anybody
who
served
in
the
legislature
knows
when
you
have
an
election
year.
You
know
when
it
gets.
You
know
midway
through
july.
The
legislature
is
pretty
much
gone
for
most
of
the
year
and
then
back
here
and
there,
and
then
you
have
lame
duck.
So
your
opportunities
for
passing
legislation
get
kind
of
slim.
A
So
I'm
going
to
ask
each
and
every
one
of
you
to
call
your
state
representatives,
your
senators
and
perhaps
reach
out
to
the
members
of
judiciary
to
see
if
we
can
get
this
legislation
taken
up.
Thank
you.
J
Thank
you,
and
I
want
to
thank
commissioner
kowal
for
bringing
this
resolution
before
us
as
part
of
her
legislative
background
in
2014
in
lansing,
and
just
helping
us
as
a
county,
be
an
active
participant
in
fighting
this
crime
and
looking
at
the
redefinition
of
this
crime
and
helping
victims
become
survivors
of
this
crime.
J
The
these
bills
will
help
those
efforts
greatly
and
so
again
I
want
to
thank
you-
and
I
want
to
also
thank
our
our
new
prosecutor,
karen
mcdonald,
because
she
has
asserted
initially
that
she's
going
to
take
a
human
approach
to
looking
at
laws
and
one
day
we
may
have
a
human
trafficking
specialty
court
like
we
have
a
drug
court
and
we
have
juvenile
courts
just
to
really
help
these
people
that
get
rescued
or
escape
themselves
from
this
plague.
So
I
appreciate
what
you
did
by
bringing
forth
and
I'm
definitely
in
support.
So
thank
you.
E
Again
to
echo
commissioner
jackson,
but
I
also
want
to
include
you,
commissioner
jackson.
Thank
you,
commissioner,
coal
and
jackson,
both
for
the
work
that
each
of
you
do
and
mr
jackson
for
leading
the
human
trafficking
task
force.
The
work
you
do
is
very
important
and,
commissioner,
I
appreciate
you
presenting
on
this,
even
though
you
aren't
with
us
in
person,
I'm
glad
that
we
had
the
opportunity
to
hear
from
you
virtually
so
both.
Thank
you,
commissioners.
E
Any
further.
Thank
you.
Any
further
questions
or
discussion.
Okay,
see
none!
Please
prompt
the
vote.
E
Next
up
we'll
move
on
to
our
last
item
of
our
regular
agenda,
it's
item,
j
parks
and
recreation,
other
action
for
seasonal
employees,
salary
and
incentive
changes
at
oakland
county
parks.
Do
we
have
a
motion
motion
by
commissioner
juliette
support
by
commissioner
loops?
I
believe
we've
got
our
parks
and
rec
director
chris
ward,
so
welcome.
E
L
As
all
of
you
know,
we
have
a
wonderful
park
system
in
oakland,
county
6,
700,
acres,
14
parks,
golf
campgrounds,
water
parks,
rv
park,
trail
system
and
all
of
those
are
wonderful
things,
but
what
makes
it
really
a
living
breathing
park
system
that
people
can
enjoy
are
the
people
it's
the
people
that
work
for
our
park
system
that
make
it
a
reality,
and
we
are
heavily
dependent
upon
seasonal
staff
with
turnover
annually
and
a
hiring
system
and
onboarding
and
recruiting
that's
an
extraordinary
effort.
I
just
want
to
introduce
this
crew.
That's
here
with
me.
L
I've
got
tom
hughes,
who
is
our
chief
of
golf
operations
in
our
south
district
of
the
park
system.
I've
got
matt
pardee,
who
runs
our
red
oaks
park,
ryan
dinescu.
I
got
that
right.
Ryan
ryan
is
our
kind
of
our
lifeguard
guru,
so
he's
gonna
be
able
to.
Thank
you.
I
just
renamed
your
title:
there
mike
boyd
runs
waterford
oaks
park.
Jim
dunlevy
is
a
legend
a
little
bit
in
the
park
system.
L
He
is
our
chief
of
the
north
district
for
oakland
county
parks
and
works
in
camp
grounds,
especially
as
well,
and
is
the
president
of
the
michigan
association
of
county
parks,
officials
parks
officials.
So
he
makes
me
stand
when
I
enter
the
room,
and
you
know
our
our
chairman,
chairman
mcgilvery,
and
where
phil
went
off
to
there's.
Phil
is
our
chief,
our
manager
of
parks,
operations,
administration
and
melissa.
I
don't
know
if
she's
still
on
there
as
well,
so
that's
our
team
stephanie's
still
here
or
not.
L
She
had
to
leave
okay,
so
she
works
on
our
recruitment
and
retention
efforts
and
organizational
development.
We
have
tried
to
get
ahead
of
this
issue.
As
we've
discussed
as
a
group.
In
the
past
we
had
a
very
difficult
season.
Last
year,
oakland
county
parks
and
rec,
with
the
labor
shortage
situation
that
the
entire
nation
is
facing,
which
resulted
in
reduced
operations
all
the
way
around,
stretching
our
staff,
especially
our
full-time
staff,
very
thin
as
it
related
to
our
water
parks.
The
waterford
oaks
wave
pool
was
closed
down.
L
Our
red
oaks
water
park
had
reduced
hours
a
reduced
season.
Some
of
the
features
were
cut
back
upon
these
guys
can
give
you
more
information
on
that
just
really
very
difficult
season,
overall
with
staffing,
so
we
tried
to
get
ahead
of
this
and,
as
you
recall
a
couple
months
ago,
we
came
before
you
and
asked
and
appreciate
your
support
for
some
compensation
increases
for
the
lifeguard
position.
Also
for
some
of
our
recreation
programming
staff,
we've
launched
an
unprecedented
early
effort
on
recruitment
and
retention.
We've
gotten
more
organized
than
ever
before.
L
I
think
we've
had
four
or
five
job
fairs.
Already.
We've
got
a
couple
more
coming
up
that
really
helps
expedite
the
hiring
process.
People
can
come
in.
They
can
interview,
get
offered
a
position
on
site.
That's
a
contingent
offer.
They
still
have
to
go
through
the
normal
hiring
process
of
with
hr.
Do
the
physical
get
the
background
check
and
all
of
that,
but
it
does
kind
of
move
things
along
quite
a
bit.
L
We
have
done
an
enormous
amount
of
advertising.
We've
done
direct
mail
to
pretty
much
the
entire
registered
voter
list
of
pontiac
madison
heights.
We
have
advertised
print
in
digital
and
18
different
newspapers
in
the
county,
with
many
of
your
help
and
support
we've
gotten
into
school
systems
that
we've
never
been
in
before
connected
with
teams,
athletic
teams
and
coaches,
and
we
have,
you
know,
really
put
forward
quite
an
effort
in
the
last
week,
or
so.
L
We
have
done
kind
of
a
check
on
where
we're
at
a
little
bit
of
a
war
room
check
and
we're
running
behind
pace
of
where
we
normally
are,
especially
with
lifeguards,
and
if
we
don't
improve
our
trajectory,
there's
going
to
be
some
very
difficult
choices
to
be
made
in
the
next
month,
or
so
that
will
impact
our
water
park
operations.
Especially.
L
As
many
of
you
know,
we
we
have
issues
in
terms
of
proximity
of
our
parks
for
all
of
our
residents
and
so
transportation
and
transit
accessibility
in
terms
of
being
able
to
attract
and
make
our
parks
available
for
all
types
of
people
to
be
able
to
work
at
our
parks
is
an
issue.
We've
done
quite
a
bit
of
research
in
terms
of
ride,
share
programs,
and
we
want
to
try
to
make
that
available
as
quick
as
possible.
L
L
There's
some
irs
issues
with
taxation
that
we
have
to
work
through
as
well.
So
that's
the
second
resolve
clause
there
in
terms
of
adding
to
the
bonus
right
now
we
administratively
had
approved
earlier
in
the
year
a
three
hundred
dollar
bonus
for
lifeguards
new
lifeguards
to
go
through
the
training
program
and
work
a
hundred
hours.
That's
right!
Thank
you.
Okay,
we
had
a
little
bit
of
discussion
back
and
forth
that
caused
some
confusion
and
apologize
for
that.
L
L
On
top
of
what
has
already
been
approved,
100
mark
yes,
so
it
would
be
500
for
both
returning
in
the
new.
So
so,
essentially,
the
800
dollar
bonus
for
new
lifeguards
in
500
for
the
returning
we'd.
Also
like
your
consideration
and
that's
the
third
resolve
clause
there
for
some
flexibility
to
continue
to
work
with
the
administration
to
address
incentives
as
the
situation
evolves,
because
it's
a
very
difficult
market
and-
and
so
that
is
kind
of
the
the
the
big
picture
of
what
is
before
you
today.
L
Gentlemen,
do
you
have
anything
you
want
to
add
these
two
guys
here
have
been
in
the
media
quite
a
bit
they're
available
for
autographs
on
tv
news.
So
so
that's
that's.
The
overall
picture,
I'm
happy
to
take
any
questions
or
concerns
and
address
any
issues.
Commissioners
might
have
excellent.
F
Mean
I'll
jump
in
and
I
have
definitely
noticed
a
public,
I
mean
outward-facing
promotion
of
these
jobs
through
social
media
through
print
media,
and
I
mean
a
bunch
of
other
things.
I
think
that's
great
and
I
and
happening
in
a
very
tight
market
job
market
that
some
other
jobs
are
paying.
I
mean
a
lot
more
two
two
questions.
F
Specifically,
I
mean,
and
it
probably
applies
to
all,
but
I
mean
zero
on
the
lifeguards
because,
like
if
inclement
weather
comes
through,
we
get
a
terrible
like
thunderstorm
like
okay,
I've
agreed
to
do
this,
and
now
I
don't
get
paid
right,
I
mean
so
I
I
can
go
to
home
depot
and
get
paid
right
and
guaranteed
to
get
paid
and
probably
paid
more
now.
F
I
might
want
to
work
on
my
tan
and,
and
I
prefer
being
a
lifeguard
and
would
even
accept
less
but
then
weather
comes
through
and
like
we
basically
don't
pay
them
because,
like
the
park's
not
operating
and
so
like,
has
there
been
any
consideration,
I'm
figuring
I
mean
as
far
as
I'm
concerned,
but
I
got
you
that
maybe
we
should
consider
at
least
particularly
this
season,
like
you're
signing
up
for
a
tour
of
duty,
and
if
the
skies
open
up
you
still
get
paid
and
we'll
find
them
something
else
to
do.
L
N
So
previously
we
were
never
paid.
Lifeguards
go
through
a
24
hour
training
to
become
a
lifeguard.
So
that's
300
300
covers
that
time
that
the
floor
would
not
get
paid
for
right.
In
addition
to
that
now,
500
is
over
and
we
set
a
100
100
hours
as
a
minimum,
because
it's
very
attainable
for
any
employee
to
reach
that
at
the
water
park
right.
So
I
think.
F
I
know
a
high
school
swim,
I
mean
I
actually
was
pitching
him.
I
was
thinking
he's
I
mean
before
college
like
he
would
be
perfect,
yes
and
would
love
to
do
it
and-
and
he
actually
asked
like
well
what
happens
when
it
rains,
and
I.
L
F
So,
okay,
the
I
guess
the
other
on
the
other
question
like
so
are:
is
our
parks
and
zone
get
on
the
lifeguards,
because
I
know
this
has
been
a
chronic
challenge
that
we've
had
are.
We
is
the
metro
park
system
and
other
I
mean
experiencing
the
same
type
of
I
mean
we
purport
is
it
I
was
wondering
if
it's
like
a
location
issue
of
where
our
parks
are
and
where
they
have
to
get
to,
or
is
it
just
like
across
the
board?
Are
we
all
sharing
the
same?
If
you.
L
Were
to
google
lifeguards
you're
gonna
find
a
national
crisis
here.
The
500
dollar
number
actually
was
triggered
because
here
on
clinton,
just
offered
this
benefit
his
exact
benefit.
Oh
well,
that's
helpful,
yeah,
every
every
local
parks
and
rec
department
aquatic
centers
having
the
same
issue
as
a
matter
of
fact,
some
of
the
commissioners
have
been
so
helpful
in
helping
us
get
into
schools.
We've
been
chased
back
out
of
the
schools
because
they're
trying
to
find
lifeguards
as
well
and
we're
competing
with
them.
So
it
is
a
it's
a
big
issue.
L
You
know
it's
a
particularly
challenging
thing
because
you
have
to
get
into
the
you
have
to
find
that
right
kid
who
will
plan
ahead
enough
to
be
trained
and
then
you
know
be
willing
to
work
a
little
bit
down
the
road
because-
and
that's
one
of
the
reasons
why
we're
here
and
trying
to
get
on
your
schedule
again
sorry
for
getting
on
your
agenda
so
late,
but
we
have
to
get
them
into
the
pipeline
in
may
in
order
to
get
those
parks
open
in
june.
N
Will
y'all,
I
think,
part
of
what
what's
happened
to
us,
because
we
didn't
open
we're,
seeing
we're
really
struggling
from
the
returning
staff
too
in
the
past
we'd
have
you
know?
Maybe
thirty
percent
come
back?
Sometimes
fifty
percent
right
and
now
we
we're
almost
like
starting.
You
know
from
the
beginning.
N
You
know
this
is
kind
of
why
this
year,
I
I
kind
of
look
at
this
year
as
kind
of
like
building
for
the
future
years.
You
know,
or
maybe
we
don't
need
to
offer
all
these
incentives,
and
hopefully
maybe
we
can
get
to
that
point
where
we're
back
to
you
know
fifty
thirty
percent
returning,
instead
of
actually
starting
from
nothing
and
we
spent,
we
spent
a
lot
of
money
getting
waterford
ready
last
year
and
getting
the
pool
because
we
have
to
make
a
decision
yeah
like
in
the
next
couple
weeks.
N
Do
we
move
forward
to
get
the
pool
ready,
so
we're
gonna
have
to
start.
You
know
getting
you
know,
working
on
the
bottoms
or
the
walls
and
you
know
start
adding.
You
know
water
to
the
pool
and
making
sure
everything's
in
operation
you
know,
and
it
was
it
was
really
just
hardening
last
year
when
we
got
11
lifeguards
and
we
needed
approximately
25..
N
You
know
I
mean
it
worked
out
great
for
red
oaks
if
we
put
them
in
a
van
and
take
them
down
the
rails,
and
I
think
that
saved
them
to
be
able
to
even
operate
the
level
that
they
were
at
too.
So
we
still
offered
that
opportunity
and
if
anybody
wants
to
work
like,
like,
you
were
saying,
even
on
a
rainy
day,
there's
always
something
for
us
to
you
know
come
up
with
a
plan
for
them
to
do.
I
know
that
you
know
that
we
do
do
that.
E
Excellent,
first
and
foremost,
I
want
to
say
I
I
thank
all
of
you
for
being
so
proactive
and,
mr
ward,
it
sounds
like
from
what
you've
explained.
The
employee
retention
campaign
that
you've
already
started
is
pretty
significant
and
I've
said
this
before
and
I'm
going
to
say
it
again.
I
if
I
dig
extreme
value
in
our
parks,
as
all
of
us
do
as
somebody
who
lives
in
waterford
and
and
just
going
through
the
effects
and
impact
of
last
year
it
hit
hard.
E
I
mean
it
really
truly
did,
and
so
not
just
with
waterford
oaks,
but
just
red
oaks
at
all
of
our
parks.
I
I
want
to
do
what
we
have
control
and
can
do
to
make
sure
that
we
don't
fall
back
into
closing
and
not
being
able
to
open
our
parks
and
our
wave
pools.
So
I
commend
the
effort
that
all
of
you
have
put
forth
in
being
proactive,
so
we
can
make
sure
that
we
keep
our
parks
open
and
our
water
parks
opened.
E
J
Thank
you
really
quickly.
I
the
gentleman
next
to
chris,
your
name
again,
tom
hughes,
oh
hughes.
Yes,
mr
hughes,
so
you're
over
golf
course,
operations.
N
J
Okay,
I
wanted
to
ask,
because
you
know
our
conversation
is
really
focusing
on
the
water.
What
about
the
golf
courses
and
young
people
being
employed
at
golf
courses?
Are
you
having
a
problem
finding
folks.
J
N
Issues
with
getting
staff
and
but
water
parks
by
far
the
amount
of
staff
we
need
there
is,
it
has
the
biggest
impact,
and
the
life-saving
component
with
the
lifeguards
is
really
the
issue.
We
have
golf
course
we're
a
little
more
fortunate.
We
have
a
lot
more
returning
staff
than
than
other
areas,
but
still
also
need
the
the
younger
college.
Kids
high
school
kids,
we're
always
looking
for
them.
There
might
be
two
or
three
kids
versus
you
know:
50.
J
But
we
still
need
them.
I
wanted
to
make
you
aware
of
how
midnight
golf
I
don't
know
if
you've
ever
heard
of
it.
Yes,
you,
okay,
wonderful,
do
those
young
people
participate
in
the
golf
courses
in
oakland
county
as
far
as
just
partnering
with
that
program?
No,
we
really
love
to
see
that
yeah.
N
Currently,
we
don't,
we
did
partner
with
some
other
programs,
but
you
know
through
cove
it
all
kind
of
fell
off,
but
you
know
getting
back
to
normal
we're
looking
for
other
opportunities
to
partner
with
to
get
the
youth
into
into
golf.
J
K
Julia,
I
totally
see
where
you
guys
are
at
with
the
staffing
issue,
as
we
have
heard.
I
think
for
the
last
well,
since
I've
been
here
all
of
the
staffing
issues
and
yours
being
seasonal,
specific,
obviously
me
being
in
waterford
and
using
the
water
park
extensively
over
the
last
20
years.
With
my
kids.
K
It
truly
is
a
lifeline
for
some
of
those
residents
and
if
they
don't
have
it,
the
lucky
residents
get
to
go,
buy
a
membership
at
lifetime
or
some
other
club
and
the
other
ones.
You
know
you've
got
these
kids,
that
that
was
their
only
opportunity
and
we
have
made
exceptions
for
different
departments
within
the
county,
not
exceptions,
but
we've
recognized
their
staffing,
hardships
and
given
raises
reclassifications
suggesting
hybrid
schedules.
So
I
I
completely
support
this.
I
see
the
urgency
I
see
the
need
and
how
this
this
is
truly
a
unique
department
in
itself.
L
I
appreciate
all
your
kind
words.
This
is
a
kind
of
a
unique
department,
it's
kind
of
more
of
a
service
industry,
and
it
has
been
a
very
difficult
situation
with
the
labor
overall
picture
that
all
businesses
governments
are
dealing
with
so
overall,
I
guess
I
just
would
like
to
express
our
appreciation
for
the
commission's
support
throughout
all
of
this.
In
consideration
of
this
proposal,.
F
L
L
You
know
we
try
to
make
each
one
of
these
amenities
self-supporting
to
the
extent
possible,
so
we
review
on
an
annual
basis
the
budgets
for
each
one
of
these
features
water
parks
to
to
see
how
we're
performing
it
may
be,
with
increased
cost,
we're
not
going
to
be
able
to
reach
it,
but
we'll
we'll
review
that
on
an
annual
basis,
but
the
I
guess
that
the
short
answer
to
your
question,
commissioner,
is
is
the
military
okay,
so
I'm
not
sure
on
the
total
cost.
L
L
So
yeah
the
the
the
transportation
and
the
500
one
that
the
thousand
dollar
thing
needs
to
be
amended
to
500..
The
third
one
is:
is
just
seeking
authority
to
be
able
to
continue
to
address
incentives
if
necessary.
So,
for
instance,
if
we
offer
the
500
incentive
and
we
get
to
100
hours
and
we're
worried
everybody's
going
to
just
leave
us
at
that
point,
we
might
want
to
be
able
to
go
back
to
the
administration,
dmb,
etc
and
say.
Could
we
offer
an
incentive
to
retain
the
staff
for
the
balance
of
the
season?
L
We
don't
know
how
many
hours
we're
going
to
do,
because
it's
somewhat
climate
dependent
right.
So
that's
that's.
What
that
third
200
000
dollar
causes-
and
the
reason
we
don't
have
a
budget
amendment
is-
is
that
because
parks
employees
are
seasonal
staff,
so
variable
we
don't
know
how
many
staff
we're
going
to
have.
We
don't
know
how
many
people
will
be
utilizing
the
transportation,
the
transit
benefit.
L
It's
all
brand
new,
we're
hoping
we're
gonna
be
able
to
recruit
many
more
people
so
that
that's.
L
F
Next,
local
meeting,
I
think
that
would
be
helpful
just
to
understand
I
mean-
and
I
mean
I'll
speak
for
myself,
but
I
mean
I
think,
what
taking
whatever
extraordinary
steps
we
need
to
to
make
sure
that
all
these
operate.
I
can't
tell
you
my
my
daughter's
put
up
with
a
lot
of
stuff,
so
I
can
keep
doing
this
she's,
like
the
one
thing
we
would
expect
of.
F
You
is
to
keep
the
lazy
river
open
and-
and
I
let
them
down
so
I
mean
I
feel
that
even
more
than
you
do
right,
yes,
no
yeah,
it
is
so
to
the
extent
that
yeah
we
get
a
general.
I
mean
that
and
and
appropriate
the
funds,
and
I
mean
I
I'm
supportive
of
I
mean
definitely
latitude.
F
I
mean
in
terms
of
like,
as
these
I
mean
incentives
become
at
least
some
sort
of
reporting
like
this
is
what
the
the
parks
board
has
authorized
and
have
confidence
in
the
leadership
of
our
I
mean
our
chair
and
as
well
as
the
members
of
that
board,
I
mean
come
forward.
I
think
we're
gonna
have
to
get
very
innovative
and
we
might
have
to
push
the
number
up
even
more
to
I
mean
to
get
it
but
like
setting
the
mark,
we've
got
to
pay
more
than
others
to
get
them.
L
That
and
we,
you
know,
we
feel,
especially
with
the
increased
mileage
of
responsibility,
to
make
sure
all
of
our
facilities
are
fully
open
myself
as
well,
and
you
know,
I
think,
especially
the
expectation
of
the
covert
restrictions
pulling
back,
that
people
want
to
be
able
to
come
and
enjoy
all
of
our
facilities.
So.
J
L
E
I
just
want
to
get
clarification.
I
know
that
mr
ward,
one
of
the
things
briefly
that
was
spoken
in
the
beginning
was
do
we
need
to
make
an
amendment
on
any
numbers.
E
E
L
E
Be
it
further
resolved
that
the
oakland
county
board
of
commissioners
authorizes
the
payment
of
bonuses
up
to
500
for
lifeguard
positions
payable
at
the
end
of
the
season?
For
those
that
complete
at
least
100
hours
of
service
by
the
end
of
the
2022
fiscal
year?
Is
that
the
correction.
F
E
It's
okay,
chairman.
F
L
Well,
you
know
in
our
internal
discussion.
This
is
part
of
the
confusion.
We've
been
back
and
forth
on
this,
so
the
issue
really
comes
down
to
the
issue.
You
brought
up,
mr
chairman,
about
the
climate
and
closing,
and
so,
if
you
reach
100
hours,
will
everybody
leave
you
know,
and
so
I
think
the
idea
that
might
be
best
if
we're
going
to
offer
a
thousand
dollar
benefit
would
be
to
encourage
people
to
work.
The
first
hundred
the
whole
season
for
thousands
of
people.
So
that's
what
it
is.
L
The
whole
combination
of
what
you've
got
there
gets
us
to
would
be
500
if
we've
got
the
authority
to
go
back
administratively
and
yet
another
500
bonus
to
work
the
rest
of
the
season
if
we're
getting
close
to
100
hours
got
it
because
if
you,
you
know,
I
think
the
danger
there
is
if
you've
got
a
thousand
dollar
bonus
to
work.
100
hours,
we're
doing.
We
already
increased
the
wages
to
16
an
hour
and
there's
a
dollar
an
hour
bonus
in
there
as
well
for
all
the
water
park.
L
F
L
E
Excellent
commissioner
loops.
D
F
E
Okay,
so
with
that
being
said,
do
we
have
a
motion
to
amend
the
first,
be
it
for
the
resolve
clause
to
strike
out
one
thousand
dollars
and
insert
500.
so
motion
by
commissioner
loops
support
by
commissioner
joliet
commissioners.
E
So
any
further
discussion
on
the
be
it
further
resolve
clause
strike
out
of
500,
inserting
or
I'm
sorry
striking
out
1000
inserting
the
500.
Is
there
any
further
discussion
all
right?
Let's
do
prompt
the
vote
on
the
amendment.
E
E
Five
yays
zero
nays
motion
carries
now
commissioners
back
to
the
initial
items.
E
F
As
amended,
so
I
think
it
would
be
helpful
to
get
kind
of
an
estimate
like
the
high
water
market.
Full,
I
mean
fully
fund
this
thing.
Everything
is
running
smoothly.
This
is
what
I
mean
it
will
cost
to
be
able
to
do,
and
I
mean
and
get
some
sort
of
amendment
that
we
can
include
in
that.
So
with
that
I
mean
I
am
100
supportive
of
moving
forward
with
this.
If
I
can
move
to
postpone
this
to
our
next
special
lago
meeting
before
our
board
meeting
okay,
dude.
L
Do
you
want
a
estimate
or
do
you
want
a
budget
amendment
I
mean
we
could?
We
can
amend,
say
our
salaries
line
item
to
give
you
the
high
end
of
it
or
we
can
give
you
an
estimate
of
range
and
then
what
do
people
prefer?
We
give
you
the
estimate
of
the
range
and
then
we
find
out
what
it
really
cost
us
and
then
amend
our
budget
at
the
end.
E
Can
we
get
a
point,
clarification,
there's
a
there's,
a
there's,
a
lot
of
deer
and
headlight
looks
in
the
room
right
now
so
before
we
come
out
before
we
proceed,
though,
can
I
believe,
mr
ward?
I
don't
know
if
it
was.
E
B
L
Well,
if
I
understand
correct
it's
either
to
have
a
budget
amendment
or
an
estimate
of
cost,
so
my
only
question
is
because
you
have
such
a
wide
variance
in
what
this
might
cost.
Do
you
want
that,
in
the
form
of
an
estimate
that
we
would
then
later
when
we
know
it
have
hard
costs,
amend
the
park's
budget,
probably
towards
the
end
of
your
fiscal
year?
L
Or
do
you
want
to
have
a
worst
case
scenario
from
a
fiscal
standpoint
budget
amendment
that
we
would
probably
then
true
up
the
budget
that
would
probably
end
up
looking
from
a
fiscal
standpoint.
It
would
end
up
probably
having
more
less
cost
in
our
budget,
because
it
it
would
be
a
worst
case
scenario,
so
it's
either
or
we're
happy
to
do.
I'm
just
it's
a
preference.
L
Is
that's
a
that's
the
fail-safe
commissioner?
That's
an
additional
if
these
things
that
we're
asking
for
don't
succeed,
that's
the
fail-safe
to
be
able
to
go
back
and
let's
say
with
the
500
bonus
we
get
to
mid
july.
Our
100
hours
are,
are
you
know,
coming
up
and
these
guys
come
to
me
and
they
say
everybody's
going
to
leave
and
we
need
another
bonus
to
keep
them
until
labor
day
than
we
need.
L
F
F
F
F
Be
30
000
and
then
there's
the
additional
1
hour
bonus
for
all
water
park
staff
of
hours
that
work
between
memorial
day
and
labor
day
so
that
these
each
have
a
cost
implication
that
I
just
think
it's
I
mean
it's
prudent
for
all
of
us
to
have
actually
like
know
what
what
do
we
talk?
What's
the
total
cost
that
we're
looking
at
so.
F
This
is
that's
what
the
mr
ward
has
been
saying.
Is
that
you
can
I
mean
if
you
fill
all
the
positions
that
we're
looking
to
fill
and
everything
this
is
the
high
water
mark
of
what
all
of
this
would
cost
from
a
from
a
fiscally
responsible
perspective.
I
think
we
should
know
what
that
is.
I
don't
think
that
I
mean
again.
A
F
Think
at
the
worst
we
keep
saying
worst
case
scenario.
I
would
call
it
more.
The
optimal
scenario
is
like
optimally:
we
want
to
fill
all
these
positions.
What
is
that
going
to
cost?
What
I
heard
is
that
this
isn't
a
200.
This
is
likely
more
than
200
000,
oh
absolutely
all
together.
Absolutely
so
so
I
think
that
I
think
had
either
and
I
think
what
mr
ward
was
asking
do.
We
want
an
estimate
of
what
we
think
it's
going
to
be
or
do
we
want?
F
E
Chairman,
I
just
want
to
make
sure,
because
I
I'm
hearing
I'm
hearing,
I
just
want
to
make
sure
to
ensure
that
this
will
go
to
our
lago
special
meeting
before
the
board
meeting
next
week.
I
hear
the
urgency
yeah
and
I
don't
want
a
chance
that
this
wouldn't
hit
our
april
board
meeting.
Given
that
there's
one
board
meeting
in
april.
F
E
Shouldn't
be
anything
that
gets
in
the
way
of
that
am
I
just.
I
want
to
be
sure,
because
we
have
one
board
meeting
in
april
and
I
understand
the
urgency
and
the
importance
of
this
information.
I
hear
what
you're
sharing
with
the
amount
dollar
amounts,
but
I
also
just
want
to
make
it
clear
that,
with
that
information
added
as
we
lead
into
next
week,
we
will
have
this
as
an
agenda
item
during
our
special
lego
meeting.
L
Were
down
to
was,
would
you
like
a
informational
estimation
of
the
total
cost,
maybe
with
some
variability
based
on
usage?
Or
do
you
want
a
full
usage
estimation
that
will
get
you
a
budget
amendment
that
will
likely
lead
park's
budget
coming
in
at
the
end
of
the
fiscal
year
lower
than
estimated
expenditure?
So.
F
L
F
E
You
for
the
clarification,
thank
you
chairman,
commissioner.
Julia.
L
L
E
E
F
F
E
L
L
E
So
you
know
what,
before
we
have
this
discussion,
can
we
move
forward
with
the
motion
to
postpone
and
then
we
can
carry
on
this
conversation
just
from
a
policy
process
perspective,
so
chairman
woodward,
move
to
postpone?
Is
there
a
second
second
by
commissioner
jackson?
Any
further
discussion
on
the
postponement
of
this
item
and
again
this
will
be
postponed
to
our
special
lego
meeting,
scheduled
next
week
prior
to
our
board
meeting
scene.
None
prompt
the
vote.
Please.
E
Five
yays
zero,
nay
motion
carries
now
to
go
back
to
our
initial
conversation
in
regards
to
an
estimate
versus
a
complete
right.
Was
that
complete
budget
amendment.
E
So
everyone
on
this
committee
we're
moving
forward
with
anticipating
having
an
estimate
added
within
this
resolution
as
it
hits
our
agenda
next
week.
Is
that
clear,
safe
to
say
sure.
E
Already
well,
I
greatly
appreciate
mr
ward
and
wait
a
minute.
I
wrote
everyone's
name
down,
because
I
want
to
thank
each
and
every
one
of
you.
So,
mr
ward,
we've
got
tom
matt
ryan
mike
jim
commissioner
mcgilvery,
our
chairman
of
the
parks
and
rec
commission,
and
I
know
that
melissa
and
stephanie
were
here,
but
now
they're
not,
but
we
thank
all
of
you
for
the
hard
work
that
you
do
and
phil.
D
N
E
I
appreciate
you
sharing
that
additional
information
and
commissioners
spread
the
word.
Thank
you
so
thank
you,
commissioner,
mcgilfrey
and
again,
thank
you.
Everyone
for
joining
us
with
this
item
this
morning
this
afternoon,
almost.
E
Lastly,
we'll
move
on
now
to
our
last
public
comment
as
a
reminder,
this
public
comment
again
and
individuals
have
three
minutes
to
speak
on
not
just
items
on
the
agenda,
but
any
items.
So
at
this
time,
I'd
like
to
open
up
public
comment.
Please
make
your
way
to
the
head
of
the
table
state,
your
name
and
community
in
which
you
reside
in,
I
didn't
know.
B
I
have
no
idea
at
this
point
honestly.
Thank
you.
I
appreciate
you
actually
voting
down
a
couple
of
things
this
time,
because
this
board
has
gone
crazy
spending
money.
It
isn't
even
clear
to
all
the
commissioners
that
we
actually
had
a
deficit
in
2021
once
the
auditors
were
done
and
underestimated
revenue
by
64
million.
We
have
a
slight
structural.
B
I
don't
think
they
use
the
word
deficit,
but
it
means
the
same.
So
the
fact
that
we're
spending
massive
amounts
on
money
for
programs
that
we
don't
need
and
paying
people
to
sit
at
home,
which
is
actually
the
root
cause
of
why
you're,
having
trouble
getting
people
to
go
to
work.
My
first
job
was
a
lifeguard.
I
got
paid
a
dollar
an
hour,
the
red
cross
trained
me.
I
taught
people
how
to
swim.
I
didn't
feel
offended
if
it's,
if
it
rained,
so
what
it
was
a
summer
job.
That's
what
it's
intended
to
be.
B
You're,
creating
expectations
that
don't
exist
even
more
concerning
is
the
fact
that
the
group
that
came
here
for
literacy
they
got
rejected
by
united
way
for
the
mental
health
decision
maker
of
this
county.
That
is
very
concerning
to
me,
and
especially
because
the
citizens
had
to
actually
do
a
freedom
of
information
act,
request
which,
by
the
way,
took
months,
in
spite
of
the
procedure
saying
it
should
only
take
five
or
ten
days.
B
This
is
offensive
and
I
think
all
the
commissioners
would
need
to
look
at
this
data
to
really
see
what's
really
going
on
it's
very
concerning
so
as
a
citizen.
I
am
absolutely
offended
when
I
see
documents
that
get
modified
by
mr
chairman
here.
In
fact,
at
the
march
15
lago
meeting,
this
was
called
item
9a
all
parks
and
recreation,
which
was
attended
by
mr
ward
and
cheryl
sean
carlson,
I'm
not
sure
who
he
is
and
mister
it
said
mcgildry
presented,
but
in
fact
mr
woodward
changed.
B
B
You
know
they
brought
in
the
chief
of
staff
from
wayne
county
to
run
this,
and
he
did
this
old
presentation.
His
powerpoint
was
the
only
item.
It
was
to
change
it
from
a
public
viewed
meeting
to
we're
going
to
move
it
all
to
study
groups,
and
there
are
three
study
groups
that
were
being
created
to
determine
everything
done
with
the
senior
money.
Someone
even
thought
we
should
create
a
new
department
for
absolutely
ludicrous.
B
Veterans
department's
ridiculous,
already
too
much,
is
being
wasted
on
advertising
and
self-serving
motives
and
they're,
not
paying
attention
to
the
citizens,
and
I
appreciate
that
I
see
some
people
are
starting
to
pay
attention,
we're
not
crazy
we're
seeing
things
that
are
not
okay
and
if
you
shift
from
one
meeting
to
the
next
and
don't
even
know,
everything's
been
modified,
there's
something
wrong
with
this
picture.
Thank
you.
Thank.

Hi,
I'm
beth
felix
from
clarkston,
hello
commissioners.
Earlier
mr
woodward
had
said,
he's
proud
of
the
resources
we
have
in
oakland
county
in
educating
on
genocide.
We
have
the
holocaust
center
and
other
smaller
centers
and
resources
the
county
provides.
This
is
all
very
good
I
so
I
suggest
we
honor
those
that
needlessly
lost
their
lives
to
covet
19
in
this
county,
due
to
our
hospitals
being
incentivized,
to
kill
your
loved
one.
As
attorney
thomas
morenz
has
said,
he
is
an
attorney
fighting
on
behalf
of
the
american
people
with
the
whistleblower
with
whistleblower
documentation.
G
I
I
think
our
county
should
recognize
these
individuals
that
have
lost
their
lives
to
these
government
protocols.
Death
traps,
as
I
like
to
call
them
and
is
dr
peter
mccullough,
who
received
his
epidemiology
degree
from
u
of
m
and
has
had
major
roles
at
hospitals
in
this
county,
said.
85
percent
of
these
deaths
could
have
been
prevented
with
early
and
effective
treatment.
G
Each
patient
I
encountered
in
this
situation.
I
sat
by
their
bedside
and
I
held
their
hand,
and
I
prayed
silently
my
prayer
was
my
prayer
is
every
day
that
truth
will
be
revealed
and
those
responsible
will
be
held
accountable,
and
I
would
just
like
to
make
take
make
one
more
comment
on
commissioner
jackson
praising
karen
mcdonald.
G
G
D
Good
afternoon
ross,
ferranco
novay,
you
had
a
recommendation
for
a
50
percent
on
the
hybrid,
but
how
do
you
get
50
of
five
days?
