Please

Rising
for
the
Pledge
of
Allegiance
pledge
allegiance
to

the
United
States
of

under.
B
B
B
B
A
B
F
To
have
any
and
all
information
great,
thank
you
very
much.
Our
presentation
is
only
two
hours,
so
no
because
there's
a
lot
to
share
and
a
lot
to
know,
but
my
name
is
Dr.
Renee,
Dudley
and
I
am
the
chair
of
the
Oakland
County
Michigan
Department
of
Health
and
Human
Services,
Board
and
I'll.
Have
each
of
my
colleagues
introduce
themselves,
and
we
have
also
our
directors
that
are
here
and
they
can
introduce
themselves
as
well.
I
F
So
what
we
wanted
to
do
is
to
share
with
you
what
the
sport
does,
what
the
mdhhs
board
does
and
so
and
to
let
you
know
some
challenges
that
are
upcoming,
that
we
all
need
to
be
aware
of,
because
you
may
get
a
few
calls.
Oakland
county
is
one
of
five
counties
in
the
state.
That's
called
what
we
call
bifurcated,
meaning
we
have
two
directors,
one
over
cash
assistance
and
one
over
child
welfare.
F
The
County
board.
Our
board
is
a
three-member
board,
two
appointed
by
the
Commissioners
and
one
appointed
by
the
state,
and
our
responsibility
is
to
review
qualifications
and
interview
the
applicants.
We
interview
both
applicants
for
the
position
of
director
of
the
department,
but
we
also
have
other
responsibilities
to
look
at
services
and
contracts
that
may
impact
Oakland
County
constituents.
F
Economic
stability
is
one
of
the
areas
that
we'll
be
talking
about.
It
includes
cash
assistance,
medical
assistance,
food
assistance,
Child,
Development
and
Care
State,
emergency
relief
and
state
disability
assistance.
These
are
all
the
things
that
the
department
does
for
across
the
state,
but
also
we're
going
to
tell
you
how
it
specifically
impacts:
Oakland
County,
our
Children's
Services
Agency.
That's
our
director
Tom
Linda's
over
cash
assistance
is
the
children's
Protective
Services
family
preservation
and
Prevention
Services,
as
well
as
foster
care
and
Foster
home
licensing
adoption
and
Juvenile
Justice.
F
We
also
have
some
oversight
of
aging
and
adult
Services
Under.
Unfortunately,
we're
also
looking
at
Adult
Protective
Services,
independent
living,
adult
foster
care
and
homes
for
the
age.
So
all
of
these
are
resources
and
opportunities
that
come
into
the
county,
the
duties
of
the
County
mdhhs
board
of
directors.
We
are
one
of
the
very
the
only
board
that
is
legislated
by
law
act
on
280
of
1939
and
we
are
agents
of
the
County
as
well
as
the
state
and
the
Oakland
County
constituents.
We
coordinate
delivery
of
services
between
MDA,
HHS
and
and
the
public-private
agencies.
F
There
are
contracts
to
public
fund
of
agencies
on
foster
care
and
other
sources
and
services,
and
so
there's
some
oversight.
We
get
information
back
from
our
directors
as
to
what's
going
on
there.
We
represent
the
County
Board
of
commission
as
a
negotiation
with
the
county
and
mdhhs
we
Advocate
on
behalf
of
the
Oakland
County
constituents.
We
get
personal
phone
calls,
we
get
letters,
we
also
get
visits
to
our
home
because
all
of
our
information
is
posted
on
the
state's
website.
F
The
duties
of
the
Oakland
County,
mdhh,
Board
review
and
vote
on
contracts.
Now.
J
F
May
not
always
have
the
power
to
say
no
to
a
contract,
that's
coming
into
Oakland
County,
but
we
have
been
very
I,
don't
know
if
I'm
going
to
use
the
word
aggressive
of
saying
one:
what's
the
outcome,
if
we're
going
to
approve
a
contract,
what
are
some
of
the
outcomes?
What
are
some
of
the
evaluations?
What
are
the
things
that
we
need
to
see
that
this
contract
is
effectively
impacting
our
constituents
and
typically
what
happens?
F
We
will
either
approve
a
contract
because
we
see
all
of
that
information
in
it
or
we
will
send
it
back
without
our
signature,
saying
these
are
things
that
we
need
to
have
in
order
for
us
to
effectively
and
with
and
conscientiously
conscientiously
approve
a
contract.
We
ask
for
information
and
it
typically
what
we
we
do,
get
that
information
back.
We
they
do
call
us.
They
do
provide
us
with
the
data
and
the
information
that
we
need
for
us
to
be
saying.
Yes,
this
is
a
contract
that
we
want
to
see.
F
We
oversee
the
County
Child
Care
fund.
The
child
care
fund
covers
the
cost
of
kids
that
are
placed
into
care,
whether
it's
in
foster
care
or
residential
care,
and
the
county
pays
half
of
those
eligible
youth
that
are
placed
into
care
and
the
state
pays
the
other
half
over
the
year
as
we've
had
our
challenges.
F
But
right
now
the
state
pays
up
front
and
then
the
county
gets
reimbursed
the
county
reimburses
that
that
state
allocation
in
Oakland
County
from
mdhhs
the
Oakland
County
just
Oakland,
County
alone,
we
received
2
billion
137
million
916
18
that
comes
into
this
County
from
mdhhs.
That's
why
it's
a
it's
a
critical
amount
of
money
that
comes
in
to
help
everything
that
we've
talked
about,
and
this
breakdown
shows
you
what
how
much
goes
to
Medicaid?
How
many?
How
many
constituents
in
our
County
are
on
Medicaid?
F
How
many
are
on
cash
assistance,
food
assistance,
child
day
care,
State,
emergency
relief,
state,
disability
assistance
and
the
right
as
of
now.
This
is
our
data
as
recent
as
2021,
obviously,
2022
hasn't
been
compiled
yet,
but
as
of
2021,
we
were
receiving
2
billion
plus
into
this
County.
So
we
have,
if
you
look
at
all
of
the
residents
it's
about
one
million
200
259
residents
in
Oakland
County.
F
That's
about
you,
know
16
almost
1700
per
resident,
but
you
can
also
see
that
it's
broken
down
by
the
number
of
constituents
that
are
receiving
those
services
within
Oakland
County,
our
state
emergency
relief
fund.
You
can
see
over
the
years
2022
it
went
down
a
bit.
The
goal
of
the
SR
is
to
provide
you
to
keep
families
and
children,
especially
from
harm.
You
know,
to
obtain
safe
and
decent
homes
in
an
emergency,
so
these
are
emergency
cash
assistance
that
goes
to
them.
F
The
other
challenge
that
we
have
are
kids
that
are
living
in
poverty
since
2017
we're
seeing
that
number
decline.
But
one
of
the
things
I
want
to
draw
your
attention
to
in
fiscal
year.
2020
it
dropped
significantly
and
the
challenge
is,
it
may
have
dropped
because
of
the
dollars
that
of
kova
dollars
that
were
coming
from
the
federal
government,
where
we
then
begin
to
see
many
of
our
kids
no
longer
were
in
that
category
of
qualifying
for
living
in
poverty.
F
We
don't
know
whether
or
not
after
the
covert
dollars
leave
whether
or
not
that
number
would
increase,
and
those
are
some
of
the
things
that
we're
also
beginning
to
look
at
as
I
shared
with
you
Tom
oversees
a
child
care
fund.
It
covers
the
cost
and
it's
budgeted.
He
comes
before
this
committee
to
present
the
recommendations
for
the
child
care
funds,
the
amount
of
that
allocation,
and
he
monitors
that
very
closely,
and
we
also
see
that
every
month
at
our
meetings,
Child
Protective
Services.
F
What
this
is
are
the
number
of
intakes
and
the
light
blue.
The
investigations
in
the
dark
and
those
that
are
referred,
meaning
those
that
have
been
picked
up.
We
may
have
a
lot
of
intakes
folks
calling
in
to
report,
and
then
they
are
screened
in
the
investigated
and
then
it's
determined
that
the
ones
that
then
go
on
for
Child,
Protective
Services.
F
So
that
children
are
not
going
through
the
trauma
of
moving
into
foster
care,
if
at
all,
and
so
that
means
that
what
we're
looking
at
are
those
kids
that
are
not
going
to
be
in
that
pipeline
for
continued
abuse
and
neglect
our
foster
care
services
and
in
Wayne
County
in
2022,
we
had
438
kids
in
foster
care.
Obviously
it's
going
down
and
home
will
continue
to
go
down
because
of
the
protective
services
issues
and
other
challenges
that
we
see
in
the
county.
F
We
also
have
and
have
the
responsibility
for
adoptions
and
the
adoptions
that
have
taken
place.
We
had
35
adoptions
is
that
yeah
35
adoptions
in
Oakland
county
in
2022.,
The,
Adult,
Protective,
Services,
the
same
kind
of
information
that
we
get
the
dollars
that
we're
talking
about
they're
coming
into
the
county.
We
have
those
that
have
been
referred
for
protective
services
for
financial
fraud
for
abuse
and
neglect
of
Elders.
F
For
you
know
a
variety
of
reasons
why
our
elders
are
under
that
may
come
to
our
attention
under
protective
services,
and
so
in
2021
we
had
over
4
000
referred
and
one
thousand
were
assigned.
You
know
to
be
monitored
and
for
assistance.
What
we
also
want
to
share
with
you,
the
things
that
your
phones
may
be
ringing
off
the
hook
for
there
are
upcoming
challenges
because
of
the
covert
dollars
from
the
federal
government
are
no
longer
going
to
come
into
our
County
they're,
going
to
hit
us
in
two
ways:
one
the
emergency
food
allocation.
F
Unfortunately,
February
is
the
last
day
that
they
will
get
the
full
amount
of
those
dollars
allocated.
Now
understand
that
every
everyone
who
is
on
food
assistance
had
a
certain
allocation
based
on
number
of
kids
in
the
family,
based
on
other
kinds
of
requirements
with
the
federal
dollars
of
that
came
into
the
every
County
that
came
into
the
state
they
received
additional
dollars.
So,
for
example,
a
family
of
four
may
have
received
400
a
month
in
food
assistance
with
the
covid-19
dollars
they
came
in.
They
now
moved
up
to
nine
hundred
dollars.
F
F
You're
gonna
get
calls
we're
gonna,
do
everything.
That's
the
department
is
doing
everything
they
can
to
alert
the
county
to
alert
the
constituents
to
make
sure
when
that
we
ask
you
to
do,
is
to
make
sure
that
they
are
aware
that
this
is
going
to
occur.
This
is
the
last
month
that
they
get
that
full
allocation,
and
it's
not
that
Oakland
county
is
taking
it
away
or
Michigan
is
taking
it
away.
It
is
a
federal
dollars.
The
cover
dollars
that
came
into
the
state
will
no
longer
be
there
redeterminations
for
Medicaid.
F
We
during
covet
anybody.
That
said
they
needed
that
help.
They
got
it.
They
did
not
have
to
go
through
a
certification
or
they
weren't
redetermined
right.
They
we
did
not
continue
to
do
redeterminations,
so
effective,
January,
February
March
will
be
the
last
day
that
they
will
just
be
grandfathered
in
starting
in
April
will
start
that
redetermination
to
determine
whether
they're
still
eligible
for
Medicaid
services,
which
means
then
that
there
will
be
we're
talking.
G
000
700
000
some.
F
Families
for
which
translates
to
1.2
million
people,
but
they
have
to
go
through
the
redetermination.
So
if
they
call
you,
you
have
they've
got
to
make
sure
they
call
and
update
all
of
their
information.
That's
in
the
system
they're
no
longer
going
to
be
direct
cause
to
offices,
they're
going
to
be
they're
going
to
be
funneled
to
a.
J
F
They're
going
to
be
funded
funneled
through
a
one
system
so
that
they
could
get
help
as
needed.
But
the
important
thing
is
that
if
they
call
or
if
you
have
constituents
that
you
are
presenting
in
front
of
or
you
have
your
coffee
clutches
Etc
sure,
please
tell
them
to
update
their
information
as
soon
as
possible
in
the
portal
for
DHHS.
F
B
B
K
F
So
they
can
come
to
the
office
and
and
to
update
their
information
there
and
possibly
get
help
if
they
need
it.
But
it's
going
to
be
critical,
that's
the
big
piece
the
the
news
is
going
to
hit
and
when
we
are
just
winning
and
we're
glad
that
we're
able
to
come
to
you
before
all
of
this
comes
into
place.
So
you
are
aware
of.
What's
going
on,
we
asked
we
meet
with
the
directors
of
both
of
those
departments.
F
The
state
directors
of
both
of
those
departments
and
Sheree
will
share
with
you
how
we
do
that
and
they
both
have
been
telling
us.
This
is
what's
going
on,
and
this
is
what's
going
to
happen.
So
those
are
the
challenges
that
we're
seeing
and
that's
just
a
real
quick
overview
of
the
mdhhs
and
our
local
office.
But
one
of
the
other
pieces
that
you
also
support
is
what's
called
Michigan
County
Social,
Services
Association,
which
is
also
mandated
by
law
and
I'll,
have
Sheree
sort
of
take
you
through
what
that
is.
G
Yes,
the
Michigan.
We
call
it
mcssa
and
that's
an
abbreviation
for
Michigan
County,
Social,
Services
Association
and
as
Dr
Dudley
indicated,
it
was
formulated
in
legislation
Public
Act
280,
which
requires
that
we
have
these
local
boards
and
also
that
these
local
boards
meet
on
a
Statewide
basis,
and
so
mcssa
represents
the
county
Boards
of
the
Michigan
Department
of
Health,
Human,
Services
and
what's
significant
about
this,
is
that
you,
each
each
local
county
has
a
three-member
board
and
their
members
are
supposed
to
be
doing
exactly
what
we
are
doing.
G
Oversighting
and
all
the
things
that
Dr
Dudley
has
already
talked
about.
It's
not
mandated
that
we
participate
with
mcssa,
but
I'm
going
to
tell
you
that
it's
really
important
that
we
do,
and
it's
also
important
and
we'll
share
later,
that
our
County
Commissioners
are
familiar
with
the
mcssa
one
of
the
things
that's
exciting
about
it
is.
G
As
a
team
approach,
we
have
worked
very
good
together,
we're
involved
in
in
committees.
We
attend
annual
conferences
and
one
of
the
things
that
I
mean
I'm.
Sure
you
can
read
that.
But
what
I
find
very
significant
is
that
as
a
local
County,
we
have
the
opportunity
to
speak
with
the
other
local
County
boards
and
to
find
out
what's
working
in
their
in
their
counties
and
what's
not
working
in
their
County
and
what
we
found.
You
know
you
all
have
heard.
G
Sometimes
the
squeaky
will
gets
the
the
oil
so
to
speak
and
by
us
being
very
aggressive
and
and
as
advocates-
and
you
know,
and
as
advocates
for
our
local
County
constituents,
we're
making
sure
that
by
us
being
at
the
table,
we're
speaking
at
a
direct
at
a
direct
level
with
the
those
who
make
the
decisions
with
respect
to
the
state
department
of
Department,
of
Health
and
Human
Services
and
with
our
legislators.
G
And
so
we
have
found
it
very
significant
to
be
able
to
meet
with
our
state
reps,
our
Senators
and
to
let
them
know
what
the
needs
of
our
constituents
in
Oakland
County
are
and
we're
able
to
advocate
for
those
needs
very
strongly.
So
you
know
that
we
will
be
very
involved
in
this
700
families.
1.2
million
individuals,
particularly
particularly
the
Oakland
County
constituents,
making
sure
that
our
residents
know
to
go
in
and
to
update
their
information
in
the
system
so
that
they
can
cannot
be
cut
off.
G
So
to
speak
from
the
food
assistance
program
and
also
from
Medicaid
one
of
the
things
that
we
are
asking
as
we
met
with
Demetrius
stalling
who's.
Our
state,
our
representative,
on
the
Child
Welfare
side
we
meet
with
Dwayne
Haygood,
who
used
to
be
Wayne
County
who's,
now
been
elevated
up
in
in
a
higher
position.
G
We
are
very
concerned
that
when
the
Medicaid
drops
off
effective
March
my
concern
or
our
concern
is
for
those
individuals
who
receive
Medicaid
services
like
let's
say
that
they're
in
the
process
where
their
doctors
have
referred
them
to
Specialists,
and
they
have
you
know
and
they're
in
that
working
where
they're
now
seeing
people.
If
that
automatically
cuts
off,
then
what
happens
to
those
Services?
G
F
F
We
need
information
because
we
meet
with
the
directors
directly
at
the
state,
the
state
directors
we
were.
They
share
this
information
with
us.
We
came
back,
we
shared
it
with
as
many
people
as
we
could
and
our
Belinda
and
others
DHS
DH,
State
DHHS
now
is
looking
for
a
way
to
effectively
let
the
community
know
they
have
not
I,
don't
know
if
they've
started
that
advertising
correct
yet
or
not.
F
So
you
are
getting
first-hand
information
as
to
what
is
coming
down
the
pike,
so
they
are
working
on
a
Communications
campaign
to
make
sure
that
recipients
know.
G
Some
of
the
people,
policies
and
procedures
relaxed
a
little
bit,
so
people
who
made
would
not
have
been
ordinarily
eligible
for
the
food
assistance
or
eligible
for
the
Medicaid
were
became
eligible.
So
not
everyone
in
this
whole
redetermination
are
going
to
be
made.
They
may
or
may
not
be
eligible
and
that's
the
the
key
eligibility
whether
or
not
they're
eligible.
Is
that
correct?
That's
it.
J
E
J
Again,
we
have
to
look
at
their
income
and
their
assets
and
determine
whether
they're
eligible
it
will
affect
those
that
we're
able
to
stay
on
during
these
last
two
and
a
half
years.
So
just
wanted
to
add
that.
Thank
you
similar.
K
C
B
C
F
F
B
I'm
just
saying
thank
you
have
a
under
your
purview,
you
have
aging
and
adult
Services
Agency.
So
at
this
table
you
have
three
social
workers
here
talking
to
you,
so
we
each
have
an
area
of
expertise
but
I'm
not
aware
of
homes
for
the
Aged.
Where
are
the
homes.
F
I
Regards
to
the
adoptions,
well,
one
on
the
positive
note,
because
of
a
reduction
of
kids
in
foster
care.
Obviously,
there's
gonna
be
less
kids,
who
are
permanent
Wards,
who
need
to
be
adopted
which
will
bring
that
number
down,
but
because
of
covid
and
some
of
the
hearing
related
issues
as
far
as
court
and
delay
in
hearings
and
that's
impacted
it
as.
I
L
Chair
a
question
of
just
clarification
as.
M
J
Yeah,
so
that
would
be
tough
to
answer.
It
depends
on
if
the
family's
still
eligible
it
depends
if
they're
getting
Social
Security
or
not,
if
they're
getting
Social
Security,
obviously
they're
automatically
eligible
for
the
Medicaid,
so
it
wouldn't
the
one
with
disability.
It
would
not
stop.
But
if
the
family
is
no
longer
eligible
for
Medicaid,
then
that
there's
different
income
limits
for
the
parent
than
are
for
kids,
so
it
would
only
depend
on
their
income.
So.
L
When
we
specifically
think
about
some
of
those
lifelong
disabilities,
autism,
for
example,
you
know
when
we
think
about
that
redetermination
of
the
need
of
services
and
given
that
autism
has
lifelong
implications
for
me,
I
would
view
it
as
well.
This
redetermination,
hopefully
wouldn't
impact
or
affect
the
services
that
they're
receiving
give
him.
It's.
L
F
Every
the
redetermination
is
per
client.
You
know
it's
per
family,
it's
not
okay!
Let's
check
this
box
because
they
didn't
make
it,
but
each
determination
is
individual.
That's
why
we
have
a
year
to
do
it.
K
F
G
And
and
just
to
complete
what
the
little
presentation
here
that's
an
excellent
question
and
to
know
that
there
are
social
workers
here
we
have
the
add
your
voice.
You
know
you're
very
welcome
to
come
to
our
meetings.
G
The
the
date
and
time
is
is
listed
there
we
meet
at
1,
30
p.m,
and
we
usually
have
to
post
the
agenda
five
days
prior
but,
more
importantly,
attend
the
legislative
conference.
This
is
the
opportunity
we
go
out
and
we
meet
with
our
legislators.
Like
I
said
before
we
meet
with
the
state
representatives,
we
we
meet
with
the
Senators
and
we
have
our
our
task
as
Oakland
County
board
members
is
to
make
sure
that
we're
representing
our
constituents.
They
are
your
constituents,
and
so
you
may
have
a
position.
G
You
may
have
something
that
we
may
not
know
about
that.
You
feel
should
come
to
the
table
and
should
be
brought
to
life
and
I'm
out.
I'll.
Tell
you
it's
a
really,
especially
as
at
now
that
we
see
that
there's
a
lot
of
new
legislators
there's
a
lot
of
newcomers,
and
so
we
want
to
make
sure
that
we
don't
allow
our
constituents
to
fall
through
the
cracks
so
to
speak,
and
so
we
we
try
to
make
sure
that
we're
there
at
the
table.
G
Having
those
conversations,
we
get
excellent
information
from
our
two
County
directors
so
that
we
are
able
to.
We
know
exactly
what
we're
advocating
for
and
what
to
ask
for
when
we
go,
and
so
your
voice
is
at
the
table
are
just
as
important.
It's
welcomed
and
we'd
like
to
see
some
of
you.
If
now
all
you
know,
come
come
and
come
to
our
meetings.
Come
to
the
legislative
conferences.
Come
to
the
annual
conference.
H
Yeah
I
had
one
sure
so
when
the
Oakland
County
Commissioners
have
a
concern
or
something
going
on
with
a
constituent.
Are
we
to
contact
our
Oakland
County
DHS
board
members
or
who
is
that
person
that
we
can
contact
reason
I'm,
asking
is
just
that
you
are
not
governed
Pontiac
me
and
commissioner
Nelson,
but
for
the
most
part
it
has
been
very,
very
frustrating
for
me
to
navigate
DHS
and
only
reason
why
I
know
this,
because
I
worked
for
State,
Rep,
Tim
Kramer,
also
and
I
wanted
us
to
somehow
or
our
board
can
find
out.
H
J
N
H
H
Will
go
my
way
because
at
the
end
of
the
day,
y'all
only
can
do
so
much
and
I
know
from
my
experiences
dealing
with.
They
can
be
very
difficult.
So
thank
you
all
for
at
least
passing
along,
but
I
think
the
last
time
we
had
the
situation.
I
just
was
like
forget
it
I'm
gonna,
do
what
I
know
how
to
how
to
navigate
and
get
through,
because
that
way
that
I
thought
was
the
setup.
G
Think
that
a
couple
things
one
is
when
we
get
the
information
directly
from
the
constituent
and
also
information
from
you.
We
take
that
very
seriously
and
we
have
conversations
with
both
of
our
directors
and
we
hold
them
accountable.
So
we
we
don't.
Let
them
just
tell
us
it's
solved,
we
they
come
back
and
they
give
us
a
complete
report
as
to
how
that
issue
has
been
resolved
now.
G
The
the
second
component
to
that
is
is
because
this
is
these
people's
individual
information
and
their
individual
lives
is
private,
and
so
we
don't
have
there's
so
so
much
information
that
we
have
that
they
cannot
provide
to
us
because
of
the
Privacy,
and
so
we
respect
that.
So
we
can
basically
peel
it
down
to
whatever
the
issue
was.
G
It
was
resolved
and
most
times
we
will
hear
back
from
them
that
it
was
resolved
and
we
haven't
gotten
any
follow-up
letters
from
the
constituents,
but
I
think
that,
given
the
protocols
and
how
things
work,
if
you're
you're
people
that
you're
working
with
have
an
issue,
I
think
the
appropriate
place
would
be
to
start
with
Melinda
abregas.
If
it's
food
assistance,
cash
assistance,
Tom
Shire,
if
it's
anything
doing
with
foster
care,
Protective
Services,
what.
F
F
And
what
we'll
do
is
email
it
back
their
contact
information.
Those
will
be
the
most
direct
impact
I.
Would
we
have
found
that
they
have
been
extremely
responsive,
because
we
ask
if
a
constituent
calls
right
to
drop
by
our
house.
We
make
sure
that
that
is
on
our
agenda
and
that
there's
a
follow-up,
and
you
can
see
our
minutes
that
they
do
follow
up
right
and
so
part
of
then
please
want.
If
you
have
a
constituent,
we
need
to
know
who
they
are.
F
H
May
not
okay,
we're
not
going
to
get
it
right.
They
don't
share
and
I'm
gonna.
Let
Commissioners
know
now
they
do
not
share
a
lot
of
information
but
again
like
they
said,
and
that's
only
because
I've
been
working
with
them,
even
when
I
was
at
under
them,
Grandma
as
a
state
rep
and
just
let
y'all
know,
we
are
not
privy
to
a
lot
of
information,
but
as
long
as
we
know
that
it's
getting
handled,
that's
our
main
concern.
H
And
I
did
all
right,
no
you!
No!
No!
We
we
connected
it's
just
that
Circle
back
and
I
was
just
like
forget
it,
because
I
already
know
you
know,
and
I
was
just
trying
to
get
them
in
touch
with
that
caseworker,
which
we
eventually
got
it.
So
that's
why
y'all
didn't
hear
back
from
me
because
it
got
results.
B
O
From
my
understanding,
These
funds
aren't
that
flexible
right,
you
don't
have
a
lot
of
local
leeway
to
do
something
with
them.
It's
just
kind
of
pass
through
him.
Okay,
I,
don't
know,
I
was
hoping
you'd
say
something
changed,
that'd
be
cool.
G
J
G
Support
assistance,
money
and
she
was
very
clever
and
we
can
let
her
share
that
with
you
she's
actually
helping
our
constituents
with
using
that
those
funds
and
I
thought.
We
were
really
ecstatic
to
learn
that
so.
J
Buying
a
vehicle,
repairing
a
vehicle,
it's
5000
right
now
to
purchase
a
vehicle
to
one
time.
Only
it's
900
a
year
for
car
repair.
They
could
do
that
every
year
we
pay
one-time
car
insurance.
So
if
you
buy
a
car,
we'll
pay
your
insurance,
so
you
have
an
out
front
it's
to
buy
clothing,
whatever
they
need
to
try
and
keep
them
employed.
So
I
come
up
with
a
new
system.
J
J
Type
of
accounting
attention
I'll
be
asking
my
boss
to
reach
out
to
get
more
money
for
this
funding,
because
they're
coming
in,
like
wildfires
I
dedicated
two
workers.
Two
of
my
analysts
they're
handling
all
the
referrals
for
the
county.
As
I
said:
Belinda
we're
gonna
be
out
of
money.
Now
we
have
16.
We
have.
We
have
39
000
left
with
16
referrals
in
at
five
thousand
dollars.
J
B
J
K
J
Services,
there's
no
s
standard
of
promise
on
it
like
a
due
date.
It
sort
of
gets
pushed
aside
or
they
don't
do
the
work
or
you
know
whatever.
The
issue
was
a
lot
of
people
denied
if
they
don't
have
a
valid
driver's
license
or
some
things
they
have
to,
but
we
are
approving
them
and
they're
doing
them
correctly,
and
workers
are
loving
it
because
it
takes
that
off
their
plate.
They
just
email,
my
staff
and
my
staff
handle
it
and.
G
C
O
You
so
then,
do
you
all
collaborate
with
other
agencies.
A
lot
I
mean
chair,
Loops
mentioned
this
about
like
seniors,
and
that
sort
of
thing
right,
like
a
lot
of
the
housing
organizations,
would
benefit
from
services
like
that
or
Workforce
Development.
Is
there
some
sort
of
way
to
make
sure
there's
referrals
or
overlap
or
yeah?
We.
J
We
work
directly
with
them
they're
they
have
less
money
to.
M
J
K
J
Do
whatever
we
can,
or
we
have
on
I,
have
a
community
resource
person
that
actually
sends
out
emails
all
the
time
about
all
the
organizations
that
can
help
even
with
seniors.
Today
we
actually
met
with
oh,
my
gosh
one
of
the
agencies
that
are
now
trying
to
help
see
single
adults
with
vehicles
and
stuff
and.
K
B
B
K
K
E
Okay
and
as
far
as
Tulsa
working
with
Elsa
and
Elaine,
and
also
I,
have
her
name.
She's
been
invaluable,
with
cutting
through
the
red
tape
with
DHS
and
getting
people's
applications
corrected
or
through
or
or
their
funding
started.
So
I
wanted
to
say
that
I
do
know
you
do
collaborate
well
with
also.
J
E
Want
to
put
that
out
there
and
Dr
Dudley.
You
mentioned
the
emergency
food
allocation
for
a
family
of
four
decreasing
back
to
400
from
900.
E
E
F
E
E
J
There
is
a
grid
you
can
look
to
see.
You
know.
Policies
aren't
as
obviously
available
online
and
does
have
a
grid
of
what
a
person
this
amount
of
income
making
what
they
should
about
about
what
they
should
receive
of
their
family
of
one
I
always
like
to
use
the
example.
If
you're
a
single
adult
a
senior
who's,
maybe
on
Social
Security
and
the
maximum
you've
got
due
to
your
Social
Security
was
23
they're
getting
203
dollars
during
the
pandemic.
E
That's
the
way
the
calls
will
be
identified.
F
E
K
G
And
it's
going
to
be
important
too,
for
us
to
work
with.
One
of
the
recommendations
when
we
met
with
the
state
director
was
that
we
also
began
to
try
to
work
with
the
local
food
banks,
because
you
know
they
got
drained
a
lot
too
during
the
pandemic
and
now
with
the
rising
and
food
costs,
and
once
these
individuals,
if
they're
determined,
not
to
be
eligible
and
they
lose
the
food
assistance,
whatever
portion
of
it.
How
do
we
make
that
up
in
our
County?
And
so
you
know
the
community?
G
H
Just
wanted
to
make
sure
our
staff
knew
to
make
sure
they
get
the
information
from
Miss
Belinda
in
regards
to
those
programs
and
those
offerings
that
they
offer
and
share
with
the
Commissioners.
Please
so
that
we
be
knowledgeable
about
those
programs
as
well,
and
we
can
figure
out
and
put
them
in
constituents
in
touch
to
get
the
assistance.
K
F
We
appreciate
being
able
to
present
before
you
so
that
you
are
aware
of
what's
going
on
in
the
county
and
that
we
have
been
chosen
by
you
to
represent
Oakland
County,
and
so
the
other
thing
that
mcssa
I
am
the
chair
of
mcssa
for
the
state
and
Sharon
is
over.
The
legislative
committee
and
Sharia
is
our
representative
for
our
advisory
committee.
F
So
we
do
have
a
lot
of
input
and
say,
and
we
have
access
to
the
people
that
are
making
decisions
at
the
state
and
I
think
as
Belinda
shared
with
you,
we
have
been
talking
directly
to
the
state
directors
about.
What's
coming
and
that's
why
what
we're
sharing
with
you
is
just
an
FYI.
It
is
not
the
official
information,
but
just
beware.
Thank.

Third
item
is
the
2023
medical
marijuana
oversight,
Grant
application
that
we
explored
before
and
so
moving
forward
in
a
more
efficient
process.
The
last
item
is
from
The
Haven.
The
quarterly
report
October
through
December
2022.
C
B
We
move
forward
to
our
Sheriff's
Office
recommendations.
There
are
five
items:
three
are
amendments
to
service
agreements
with
high
the
Highland
Township
Oakland
Township
Lyon
Township.
B
We
have
a
donation
of
two
support
dogs
named
Hope
and
solder,
I've,
never
heard
of
zotter
before
so
that
another
interesting
name
and
the
last
item
is
from
the
second
allocation
from
the
Community
Foundation
for
Southeast
Michigan
for
the
Innovation
initiative.
Grant
I
would
like
to
make
I
have
a
motion
by
commissioner
Nelson
support
from
commissioner
Gerson
and
our
under
sheriff
and
guy
here
will
talk
about
the
items.
Thank.
I
B
K
B
D
D
Oakland
has
requested
to
add
one
detective
Sergeant
position.
This
brings
them
to
a
total
of
two
sergeants.
One
is
a
patrol
sergeant
and
then
this
one
is
the
detective
sergeant
that
will
oversee
the
detective
Bureau,
which
brings
them
to
a
total
of
18
positions,
and
this
amendment
will
also
be
effective
after
the
full
board.
Approves
it
at
the
end
of
January.
D
D
D
So
we
have
two
two
more
puppies
and
they've
been
donated
through
Mission
Oakland,
one
is
going
to
be
assigned,
hope
will
be
assigned
to
the
school
resource
officer
in
Rochester,
Hills
and
zater
is
going
to
be
assigned
to
a
dispatcher
in
our
emergency
communications
division.
D
How
was
otter
help
there?
So
it's
more
of
an
internal
support.
We've
gotten
a
lot
of
requests
because,
obviously
they
they
take.
You
know
they.
They
have
a
lot
of
traumatic
calls
that
they
take
and
a
lot
of
traumatic
situations
that
they
deal
with.
So
it's
it's
kind
of
our
first
attempt
at
an
at
an
internal.
K
D
Lot
of
requests
for
it
so
yeah,
because
people
will
stop
in
that
are
working
that
have
the
therapy
dogs
have
stepped
in
there
and
obviously,
there's
an
overwhelming
acceptance
and
thought
that
that
might
might
be
a
good
idea.
Yeah.
D
D
So
this
is
our
second
allocation.
If
you
recall
last
year
we
had
the
first
allocation
from
the
Community
Foundation
of
Southeast
Michigan
that
gave
us
money
for
equipment
for
the
driving
simulator
and
the
trailer
this
portion
is
to
fund
overtime
to
continue
our
Community
Education
series.
O
I
guess
I
should
be
tight
here
for
the
Amendments
for
the
law
enforcement
Services.
These
were
these
come
to
us
just
to
remind
me,
if
you
don't
mind
these
come
to
us
from,
like
the
request
of
Highland
Township
saying
what
we
would
like
is
another
okay,
understood
thanks
and
then
with
the
community
policing,
Innovations
Grant
this
just
to
remind
everyone
and
tell
me
if
I
get
it
wrong
again.
D
Yeah,
it
was
open
to
the
whole
sure,
County
and
then
I
think
there
wasn't
an
overwhelming
response
that
they
kind
of
expected
and
that's
when
Barbara
Hankey
reached
out
to
us
and
said
hey,
you
know
what
we
know
that
you're
doing
this
community,
she
attended
one
of
the
Community,
Education,
policing,
series
and
and
and
said
hey.
You
know.
We
really
think
this
could
be
a
value.
We
work
with
these
National
Technical
assistants
and
that's
how
we
got
involved
in
it.
Okay,.
O
So
what
concerns
me
about
this
is,
if
we're
just
going
to
give
you
more
money
in
your
budget.
Let's
just
give
you
more
money
in
your
budget
going
forward,
because
it
looks
like
we've
used
up
the
million
dollar
pot
with
this
allocation
and
then
second
we're
using
this
last
tranche
for
overtime,
which
last
year
that
was
a
big
problem.
So
is
there
something
more
structural
here
that
we
need
to
be
looking
at
instead
of
like
this
pass-through
thing?
I,
don't
know
if
you
have
that
answer
or
something
a
bigger
talk,
but.
K
O
D
Supplies
and
there
was
whatever
so
and
then
we've
worked
it
out.
P
K
O
But
just
want
to
lift
up
I
guess
for
us
when
we
think
about
budgets
coming
through
in
the
future.
I
understand
now
from
your
context.
Thank
you
for
that
that
the
idea
wizard
would
be
greater
uptake,
but
because
there
wasn't,
this
just
ended
up
being
a
like
executive
budget
pass
through
the
Community
Foundation
to
the
Sheriff's
Office,
so
we
can
kind
of
erase
the
Community
Foundation
and
probably
their
five
or
ten
percent
admin
fee
from
that.
So
we
can
put
the
million
dollars
in
the
sheriff's
budget.
O
D
It's
enhancing
what
yeah,
what
we've
already
done
so
yeah,
it's
above
and
beyond
what
we
would
normally
do.
So
that's
a
bigger
conversation.
If
the.
If
that's
what
you
wanted
to
fund
then
and
put
that
in
our
budget,
then
we
would
address
it
that
way,
but,
okay.
This
is
above
and
beyond
what
we
were
normally
doing.
Thanks
yeah.
B
A
E
B
B
B
N
B
N
Okay,
perfect,
so
the
first
request
is
our
Eagle
contract,
which
is
really
around
our
our
Water
Resources
right,
our
staffing.
So
this
is
really
focused
on
our
non-community
water
supply.
N
So,
just
as
a
reminder,
what
that
is
is
any
Community
Supply
right,
somebody
that
has
a
building
like
say
the
one
we're
in
and
they're
on
a
well
and
they
serve
at
least
25
people
a
day
they're
required
to
submit
certain
water
samples
on
annual
basis
six
months,
lead
and
copper
nitrates
to
make
sure
even
bacteriological
to
make
sure
the
well
that's
serving
all
of
those
clients
is
safe.
They
do
lead
and
copper,
it
might
be.
Every
six
months
might
be
every
year
they
do
metal
sampling
every
six
years.
N
So
it's
just
to
make
sure
that
those
Wells
that
are
in
place
are
protected
and
continuing,
and
those
people
that
are
in
those
buildings
are
receiving
safe,
water,
drinking
water,
long-term
monitoring,
just
a
reminder
what
that
is
when
we
know
there's
an
area
of
contamination.
You
know,
maybe
there's
been
a
gas
gas
station
that
maybe
has
linking
gas
tanks.
We
monitor
the
groundwater,
so
the
state
hires
us
to
go
out
and
take
those
samples
very
specific
ways
to
take
samples.
N
That's
why
it's
important
that
those
individuals
that
are
trained
so
each
year,
we're
contracted
to
do
certain
sampling,
campgrounds
we
go
out
and
we
do
annual
Campground
inspections.
A
lot
of
people
don't
know
that
exists,
but
we
go
out
annually
and
we
check
the
campgrounds
that
are
licensed
and
offer
recommendations.
If
there's
hazards
in
the
campgrounds,
we
look
at
well
and
septic
as
well
just
to
make
sure,
as
people
are
coming
out
annually,
that
those
are
being
monitored.
N
Public
swimming
pools
same
thing:
we
do
public
swimming
pools
at
least
once
a
year,
every
public
swimming
pool
gets
an
inspection,
and
so
our
staff
are
trained
to
do
that
and
then
septage,
the
those
are
just
septic.
Collars
you'll,
sometimes
see
them
here
on
campus
that
are
working
on
septic
tanks
or
you
know,
taking
the
septic
or
sorry
hauling
septage
from
the
septic
tanks
that
are
around
the
county,
so
we
actually
inspect
those
as
well.
So
the
funding
is
generally
it'll,
go
up
and
down
really
depends
on
the
number
of
units
we
might
have
right.
N
Public
swimming
pools
might
go
up
and
down
same
thing
with
non-community
water
supplies,
depending
as
our
County
Grows
Right
people
might
put
a
building
and
put
a
well
in
because
there
isn't
City
Water
available.
So
we
might
add
some
people
go
on
City
water,
so
it
does
fluctuate.
So
this
we
did
get
an
increase
of
State
funding
for
261
thousand.
This
is
great
for
us
a
lot
of
times.
You
know
we're
using
more
general
fund
than
we
are.
You
know
receiving
from
Eagle,
so
they're
really
trying
to
make
that
more
equal.
N
So
the
next
one
is
our
sub-recipient
for
ulcer,
so
Olsa
helps
us
deliver
Wix
services
in
Oakland,
County
they're,
the
actually,
the
only
agency
that
does
this.
So
obviously
we
pay
them
a
portion
to
offer
those
services.
So
for
this
this
is
actually
three
quarters
worth
so
nine
months
of
funding
that
goes
to
Ulsa
to
help
us
deliver
those
Services.
They
have
actually
five
Clinic
locations
that
they
operate
in
Oakland
County,
which
is
great
because
it
allows
us
to
spread
those
Services
out.
N
Are
the
facilities
actually
I
can
provide
those
to
you
so
Farmington
Hills
they
operate
it's.
It's
cares
in
in
Farmington,
Hills
Carl,
Richter
Center
in
Holly,
Madison
Heights.
They
have
a
location.
Obviously
they
the
Olsa
building
in
Pontiac
right
downtown.
They
offer
and
journey
Lutheran
Church
in
Oxford,
so
again
trying
to
spread
and
provide
better
access
for
people.
We've
also
due
to
covid,
there's
a
lot
of
opportunity
for
virtual
meetings,
which
has
been
very
favorable
for
people
that
can't
get
in
and
so
I.
N
We
feel
at
some
point
when
they
move
back
to
in
person
100,
there
will
still
be
opportunity
for
virtual
sessions,
which
has
worked
out
very
well.
The
other
thing
is
I
think
this
is
a
perfect
intersection
to
mdhhs
in
the
presentation
they
just
gave.
We
have
seen
a
significant
reduction
in
Wick
requests
because
there's
been
a
lot
of
opportunity
for
people
with
food
service,
or
you
know,
Federal
funding
for
foods,
but
we're
starting
to
see
people
come
back
to
WIC
and
so,
which
is
a
good
thing
right.
N
We
want
and
we're
really
looking
for
opportunities
to
connect
with
people
that
maybe
were
like
it's
really
hard
for
me
to
do
that.
I
can't
come
into
the
office
every
six
weeks
or
whatever
it
was
so
connecting
with
people
letting
them
know.
We
have
these
virtual
Services
now
we're
starting
to
see
that
increase
again
and
expect
come
marked
right.
We're
going
to
see
another
big
increase
in
the
number
of
clients
that
we'll
see.
K
N
B
P
N
I
think
the
issue
was,
it
was
easier
to
receive
some
of
the
covid
benefits
right.
There
wasn't
a
lot
of
paperwork.
Everybody
was
kind
of
receiving
what
they
were
requesting,
and
so
you
know
there's
a
lot
of
requirements
to
WIC
right
like
you
have
to
be
recertified
very
you
know
so
frequently,
and
so
it
was
just
easier
to
say:
okay
for
right
now,
I'm
not
going
to
worry
about
that
right,
but
they,
but
they.
P
Q
The
only
thing
I'd
like
to
add
is
that
we've
had
this
posted
since
approximately
July,
we
didn't
get
the
numbers
of
applicants
that
we
were
expecting
to
have
received,
and
so
after
some
conversation
with
those
who
have
not
applied,
who
might
be
interested
in
applying
is
that
there
are
a
lot
of
people
that
were
looking
and
might
have
applied
if
it
was
a
full-time
position
and
upon
further
review
of
the
amount
of
work
that
would
be
involved
and
also
a
review
of
the
job
description
to
allow.
Q
For
some
of
you
know
additional
items
of
work,
we
felt
that
it's
most
appropriate
to
upgrade
both
to
a
full-time
position
and
the
way
that
the
original
miscellaneous
resolution
was
written
and
the
amount
of
administrative
funds
that
could
be
used
to
cover
these
positions.
Q
We
decrease
funding
to
create
these
full-time
positions,
so
this
is
simply
just
a
permission
to
turn
from
part-time
to
full-time
eligible
positions.
Q
We
received
15
applications
for
the
manager
and
33
applications
for
the
coordinator
and
after
reviewing
the
job
experiences,
we
interviewed
about
seven
for
the
manager
position
and
none
were
were
candidates
that
we
thought
were
a
good
fit
after
an
interview.
So
we're
we're
wanting
to
expand
the
pool
of
potential
applicants.
B
Q
So
the
Housing
Trust
Fund
is
set
up
to
provide
Gap
financing
for
housing
developers
and
we
we
haven't
been
able
to
stand
up
the
program
to
to
stay
here.
Is
some
funding
available
to
developers
to
create
or
rehab
affordable
housing
units
right
now?
Q
So
we
we
haven't,
we
haven't
put
out
any
any
funding
opportunities
because
of
of
not
having
the
manager
coordinator
in
place
yet
to
get
the
Housing
Trust
Fund
board
established,
give
the
rules
and
regulations
put
up
and
also
get
the
funding,
notices,
put
out
and
start
seeking
applications.
We
haven't
had
that
opportunity
to
do
that.
Yet.
Okay,.
B
Thank
you,
commissioner.
Joliet.
P
Q
That
difference
in
front
of
me,
but
just
knowing
what
grade
they
were,
and
the
budgeted
normal
budgeting
process
for
PT
E
versus
an
FTE
with
with,
like
you
know,
35
fringes
on
average
for
an
ft
is
what
you
calculated
in
there's
approximately
a
difference
of
about
maybe
100
120
000,
additional
funding
that
will
be
used
to
support
salaries
and
fringes
of
those
of
these
two
employees
as
opposed
to
the
part-time.
But
again
the
way
the
original
miscellaneous
resolution
was
written.
Q
It
allows,
or
to
a
certain
amount
of
money
from
that
annual
general
fund
allocation
to
be
used
for
administrative
costs.
So
this
would
be
just
about
a
hundred
a
hundred
and
ten
thousand
dollars
extra
to
be
used
for
salaries
and
fringes
of
these
employees,
as
opposed
to
you
know,
other
potential
administrative
items.
P
Q
It
we're
not
asking
for
additional
funding,
so
the
way
the
miscellaneous
resolution
was
written
was
that
it
would
allow
for
up
to
five
hundred
thousand
dollars
of
administrative
funds
to
be
used
for
administrative
purposes
such
as
Sellers
and
fringes
or
printing
or
building
space
for
the
employees
office.
Should
we
need
that
and
there's
a
little
bit
of
future
proofing
in
there?
So
imagine
a
scenario
where
maybe
for
the
first
two
or
three
four
five?
Q
However
many
years
we
only
needed
to
use
250
300
000
in
administrative
costs,
well,
that
remaining
amount
could
be
put
towards
a
little
bit
extra
in
another
notice
of
funding
availability
for
affordable
housing
Developers.
So,
yes,
we're
not
asking
for
any
additional
funding.
It's
just
that,
instead
of
maybe
some
of
that
additional
hundred
thousand
dollars
going
towards
another
notice
of
funding,
availability
for
Gap
financing
for
affordable
housing
developer
we're
just
wanting
to
use
that
for
salaries
and
fringes
of
the
full-time
employees.
B
Okay,
any
other
questions
regarding
this
item
all
right.
The
last
item
under
Health
and
Human
Services
is
an
extension
with
our
legal
aid
and
eviction
and
foreclosure
prevention
programs.
What
would
you
like
to
tell
us
about
this?
One
Jane.
Q
I
have
just
a
a
very
small
number
of
slides
if
I
could
be
given
permission
to
share
my
screen.
That's
why
I'm
presenting
virtually
it
would
be
easier
to
do
that
than
try
to
figure
out
thumb
drives
email
and
presentation,
all
that
kind
of
stuff
there
we
go.
Thank
you
all
right,
all
right.
Q
So
as
a
brief
reminder
about
a
about
a
year
and
a
half
or
so
ago,
or
maybe
a
little
over
a
year
ago,
the
Board
of
Commissioners
approved
state
and
local
Revenue
arpa
funding
two
million
dollars
in
total
to
support
three
non-profits
Oakland
mediation,
Center
Lakeshore
legal
aid
and
legal
aid,
Defenders
Association
Detroit
to
provide
eviction
and
foreclosure
free
legal
representation
to
Oakland
County
residents,
who
have
received
an
eviction
notice
or
are
going
through
the
foreclosure
process
and
to
to
work
with
them.
Q
Through
that
process
and
part
of
the
miscellaneous
resolution,
we
had
to
come
back
to
the
Board
of
Commissioners
to
ask
for
approval
to
renew
the
contracts.
This
is
just
more
detail
on
the
agencies,
their
websites
and
their
contact
information,
and
this
should
be
provided
in
the
communication
and
in
the
official
record.
Q
That
we
sent
around
to
any
number
of
listeners,
Commissioners
Etc,
please
feel
free
to
use
this
information
in
any
kind
of
communication
you
have
with
constituents.
We
definitely
want
to
make
sure
that
this
get
information
gets
sent
around.
Q
So
some
detailed
summary
beyond
the
regular
quarterly
information
that
is,
should
be
getting
over
to
you
with,
like
the
number
of
assistants,
just
wanted
to
share
some
brief
extra
detailed
information.
Just
you
know
kind
of
how
things
are
going
with
the
program
so
We've
expended
over
about
a
little
more
than
50
percent
of
the
2
million
dollars.
Q
Please
note
that
this
doesn't
mean
that,
if
you're
to
ask
fiscal
for
a
report
that
would
show
this
much
an
expended
because
invoices
we
might
not
receive
a
reimbursement
request
for
expenses
through
December
20
end
of
2022
until
mid-January
or
end
of
January,
then
it
takes
a
little
bit
of
time
for
that
invoice
to
get
process
reimbursed
and
then
show
up
on
fiscal
Services.
Q
However,
when
communicating
with
three
non-profits,
this
is
the
total
amount
that
they
will
be
in
full
asking
for
reimbursement
through
the
end
of
December
2022
for
those
activities
that
they've
partaken
in
unfortunately,
given
the
number
of.
Q
Calls
that
they're
receiving
the
eviction
filings
with
the
courts
and
just
the
average
reimbursement
request
that
they've
been
asking
for
it's.
It's
unlikely
that
this
service,
as
currently
funded,
will
last
through
the
summer
at
current
funding
levels,
maybe
and
a
little
sooner
than
that,
that's
in
part
because
they
are
the
course
are
seeing
an
increase
in
eviction
filings
on
this,
partly
due
to
backlog
processing
as
some
of
the
district
courts.
But
it
is
also
in
part
because
there
are
new
eviction
notices
being
received.
Q
In
fact,
one
Local
District
Court
has
increased
the
number
of
landlord
tenant
dockets
from
three
to
nine
they've,
permanently
increased
staffers
and
increased.
The
number
of
Judges,
focusing
on
just
evictions
from
one
to
two
below
is
the
total
number
of
households
and
individuals
in
those
households
that
have
been
assisted
so
far
through
the
end
of
December
of
2022
the
program.
Although
some
of
the
contracts
got
signed
in
February
of
2022,
they
really
didn't
get
up
and
rolling
until
closer
to
March
or
April.
Q
This
is
just
a
quick
bar
graph
that
shows
the
number
of
households
that
have
been
assisted
by
the
agencies.
This
is
not,
and
I
do
want
to
emphasize.
This
is
not
the
number
of
eviction
filings
with
the
individual
courts,
not
all
individuals
who
have
had
an
eviction
filed
against
them
accepted
or
you
know,
were
able
to
get
in
contact
with
the
non-profit
to
get
assistance,
and
that's
not
true
fault
of
the
nonprofits
just
oftentimes.
Q
Q
Q
Most
of
them
had
a
goal
of
preventing
an
eviction
or
preventing
an
involuntary
move,
sometimes
that
they
will
coordinate
and
they
want
to
secure
additional
rent
assistance
through
other
programs
and
that
this
program
doesn't
provide
for
this
program
just
provides
for
legal
representation,
and
another
goal
is
often
sometimes
hey.
I
know,
I
can
no
longer
afford
this
particular
apartment,
but
I
would
like
to
negotiate
more
time
to
pay
my
back
rent,
so
I
can
move
out
and
so
I
don't
have
to
have
an
eviction
on
my
record.
Q
Some
additional
demographics
of
the
household
66
percent
of
the
clients
were
currently
employed.
Many
of
the
others
who
are
not
employed
or
on
fixed
incomes
such
as
Social,
Security,
25
of
the
household,
had
at
least
one
adult
living
in
that
household,
with
a
disability,
40
of
the
clients
who
are
being
assisted
with
eviction
had
at
least
one
child
in
the
household
and
of
those
households
that
had
a
child
in
in
in
in
their
household
15
of
them
at
least
one
child
with
a
disability.
Q
So
this
program
really
is
assisting
households
that
have
very
legitimate
Financial
pressures
and
other
things
that
they're
trying
to
navigate
as
a
family.
So
those
are
some
of
the
numbers.
Here's
just
a
few
highlight
a
few
examples
that
kind
of
represent
those
numbers.
Q
There
was
one
family
that
was
to
to
vacate
their
property
at
Christmas,
Day,
I,
might
say
minor,
but
one
of
the
legal
councils
were
able
to
coordinate
with
the
landlord
and
their
Council
an
additional
payment
plan
so
that
they
could
at
least
stay
within
that
property
and
within
their
home,
at
least
through
the
holidays.
Q
You
know
this
was
significant,
because
this
was
a
household
with
children.
The
next
one
I
want
to
share
is
that
we
received
the
excuse
me.
The
nonprofits
received
a
referral
from
youth
assistance
from
one
of
the
local
youth
assistance
offices,
and
this
goes
to
show
and
highlight
the
importance
of
getting
the
word
around
that
one
program,
those
of
another
program's
a
distance
and
they
connect
those
eligible
residents
with
them
for
the
assistance.
Q
This
is
a
household
who
had
a
mother
who
had
just
received
a
new
job
as
a
forklift
operator
at
GM.
Due
to
the
recent
unemployment,
they
were
two
months
behind
the
rent,
the
Council
for
the
nonprofits
were
able
to
negotiate
additional
time
to
pay
back
the
rent,
so
the
eviction
filing
could
have
a
conditional
dismissal
and
they
didn't
have
to
have
an
involuntary
move.
Q
Another
example
was
that
a
tentative
that
the
landlord
and
the
tenant
had
conditionally
agreed
to
an
approved
payment
plan
and
a
conditional
dismissal
of
the
eviction
notice
and
filing,
but
on
the
final
day
of
the
hearing,
the
tenant,
the
client
logged
into
the
wrong
Zoom
link
and,
as
a
result,
the
judge
entered
in
a
judgment
of
eviction
leaving
her
to
have
to
vacate
in
10
days.
Q
Well,
not
the
council
for
the
non-profit
was
able
to
coordinate
with
the
council
for
the
landlord
they
renegotiated
the
payment
plan,
the
conditional
dismissal
and
they
were
able
to
facilitate
getting
it
set
aside.
Getting
the
eviction
judgment
set
aside
so
that
didn't
have
to
be
on
the
client's
record,
and
that's
that
last
one
I
do
want
to
highlight:
is
it's
not
always
adversarial
I'll
say,
but
this
was
an
example
where
the
landlord
was
hit.
Listen.
This
is
a
process.
Q
We're
going
through
I
understand
that,
but
they
were
willing
to
work
with
the
tenant.
They
just
needed
that
additional
assistance
with
the
nonprofit
Council,
who
had
the
knowledge
and
ability
to
you,
know,
coordinate
that
from
one
Council
to
another
and
with
that
I'm
done
sharing
my
information
and
we're
just
asking
for
permission
right
now
to
reapprove
those
contracts
for
at
least
another
year
or
until
funding
runs
out
and
with
that
I
will
stop.
Sharing
my
screen.
H
Just
want
to
encourage
my
colleagues
to
really
really
really
be
in
tuned.
With
this
ask
the
reason
I'm
saying
that
is
because
50th
District
Court
was
backlogged
about
six
months.
She
just
put
a
lot
of
stuff
in
place
and
every
Friday
I
think
she
started
last
Friday
she's
putting
80
evictions
on
the
docket,
so
every
Friday
at
50th,
District
Court,
that's
almost
up
to
80
people
or
80
families
that
can
be
on
eviction.
So,
however,
legal
aid
or
these
Services
can
help
these
families.
H
It
is
needed
and
I'm
just
letting
y'all
know
at
least
about
one
Courthouse
that
we
do
know
was
backlogged
tremendously
in
a
lot
of
it.
Just
so
everybody
know
is
she
had
a
decline
in
staff?
She
didn't
have
clerks
for
months,
so
she's
just
finally
up
to
all
the
clerks
I
think
she
needed
nine
I,
think
she's
at
seven
now
field
and
she's
confident,
and
we
just
got
a
new,
a
judge
appointed
there.
Also
because
I
was
lacking.
H
O
I
lift
up
again
what
Shane
said
about
the
number
of
evictions:
4
400
households
in
the
last
11
months
and
again,
like
I,
think
all
of
us
have
been
saying
we
are
cresting
this
wave.
Well
now
it's
the
new
year
and
like
and
commissioner
Powell
said
and
Shane
said
now,
people
are
Staffing
up
to
go
through
this
faster,
so
this
is
going
to
get
a
lot
worse.
O
Or
I
guess
one
clarification
just
to
make
sure.
So
please
tell
me
where
I
get
some
wrong
Leanne
and
chain,
which
is
from
what
I
understand,
even
if
you
start
going
through
an
eviction
process,
whether
it's
been
cleared
or
not,
a
landlord
can
then
see
the
fact
that
some
piece
of
paper
was
filed
with
a
court
related
to
eviction,
even
if
you
weren't
evicted
for
up
to
seven
years
or
something
so
it
can
then
prevent
you
from
getting
access
to
housing
in
the
future.
O
It's
not
only
if
you
get
evicted
like
these
7
600
individuals
in
Oakland
County
can
no
longer
find
housing,
because
why
would
a
landlord
ever
want
to
house
these
people
if
they
can
find
someone
who
doesn't
have
an
eviction
on
the
record?
It's
the
fifteen
thousand
families
that
have
just
had
to
go
through
the
courts
or
even
get
eviction
avoided
or
like
Shane
lifted
up
the
stories
that
say,
you
know
I
needed
some
help
with
back
pay,
but
I
needed
a
legal
aid
to
help
me.
O
Those
people
now
also
have
just
as
likely
a
chance
of
not
being
able
to
find
housing
in
the
future
and
that's
in
every
zip
code
in
the
county.
Okay,
so
just
want
to
make
sure
I
got
that
right,
because
I
heard
that
somewhere.
So
then.
The
second
thing
you
mentioned
Shane
was
that
this
funding
should
run
through
the
end
of
the
year
or
until
it's
done
has
there
been
any
talks
about,
because
this
is
arpa.
Have
there
been
any
talks
about
fully
funding
this
through
the
end
of
arpa
or
at
least
the
next
couple
years?
O
Q
Q
I
think
those
are
good
conversations
to
be
had
between
the
Board
of
Commissioners
and
the
executive
leadership
team
on
how
to
best
prioritize
the
remaining
State
local
Revenue
funding,
arpa
sources.
I
know
that
if
there
were
to
be
more
funding
that
were
to
come
to
these
non-profits,
they
would
definitely
be
able
to
utilize
it,
and
they
would
continue
to
utilize
the
program
for
these
purposes
until
funds
are
remaining.
If
that
is
shorter
in
six
months
or
so
or
maybe
nine
months,
they'll
do
it
for
six
to
nine
months.
Q
L
Shane
I
appreciate
the
legal
eviction
and
foreclosure
prevention
document
attached
with
that
being
said,
if
a
community
is
not
listed,
who
should
I
direct
them
to,
because
I
noticed
that
on
the
legal
aid
and
eviction
foreclosure
prevention
document,
there's
three
different:
Oakley
mediation,
Lakeshore,
legal
and
then
legal
aid
Defender?
If
a
CVT
is
not
listed
under
one
of
those
three?
How
should
I
proceed
in
helping
that
specific
residence.
Q
So
if,
for
some
reason
there
was
an
oversight-
and
there
was
a
particular
City,
Village
or
Township
that
wasn't
listed-
it
simply
goes
by
the
district
court
that
the
eviction
filing
was
located
in
now
with
these
three
non-profits.
Q
This
isn't
always
the
case,
and
so
I
do
want
to
lift
this
up.
But
these
three
particular
non-profits
work
extremely
well
together.
So
if
one
individual
reaches
out
to
one
of
the
non-profits
simply
because
it
was
the
first
number
that
a
resident
dial,
they
simply
get
them
in
touch
with
the
correct
agency.
O
C
B
O
Thank
you,
commissioner.
Craval
thanks
Liam,
we
heard
from
the.
N
O
Thank
you
yep.
You
already
know
so
they
said
food
everything's
gonna
go
to
crap
with
the
food.
We
give
you
two
and
a
half
million
dollars
of
arpa
to
do
like
a
Food
Systems
analysis
a
couple
months
ago.
Can
you
give
us
a
quick
30?
Second
update
on
how
that's
looking.
N
Yes,
so
I
can,
let
you
know:
Oakland
Hope
was
provided
their
five
hundred
thousand
dollars
to
start
providing
more
food
that
was
done.
January
4th
Lighthouse
was
given
300
000
to
continue
their
food
assistance.
Pontiac
Foundation
is
finished.
Their
contracts
at
the
end
of
November
for
350
000.
I
would
have
to
bring
back
a
report
for
who
they
funded
I.
Do
not
have
that
with
me.
Wasn't
prepared
to
talk
about
that,
but
we
can
definitely
get
that
and
give
that
out
to
you.
N
So
then
we
have
two
additional
projects:
Right
double
up
food
bucks
we
had
to
put
on
the
back
burner
for
a
little
while
there
were
some
issues
with
the
program
at
the
state
and
federal
level,
but
we
just
started
negotiating
back
with
them,
so
we'll
be
able
to
provide
a
better
update,
the
next
meeting,
the
landscape
project.
So
if
you
remember
that's
to
really
look
at
the
Food
Systems
in
Oakland
County,
we
just
started
with
the
negotiations
and
looking
at
creating
an
RFP.
So
we
can
look
at
who's
going
to
initiate
that
project.
N
So
we
will
be
in
the
next
couple
months
finalizing
that
and
really
starting
to
get
a
look
of
what
the
foods
landscape
looks
like
in
the
county.
So
we
expect
right
that
we're
going
to
probably
hit
about
the
time
that
that
information
comes
out,
that
that
food
assistance
is
ending
again
I
was
that
was
I
was
a
little
surprised
that
that
hearing
that
same
SOS
from
them
that
was
coming
so
I
actually
got
on
the
phone
right
away
and
said
all
right.
We
need
to
start
talking
about
this
as
HHS.
N
What
we're
going
to
do
right,
so
I'm
hoping
to
engage
like
Carrie
and
Melanie
and
the
obviously
the
executive
team
to
say,
okay,
what
are
we
going
to
do
moving
forward
for
this
so
again,
I
know,
Wick
will
really
be
impacted.
I
want
to
get
with
Olsa
right.
What
are
they
hearing?
What
kind
of
you
know
challenges
are
there
have?
Are
they
having
so
I'm
hoping
that
we'll
do
our
own
right
at
the
local
level?
N
B
Our
last
agenda
item
is
from
Emergency
Management
and
Homeland
Security
of
recommendation
regarding
an
Oakland
County,
Fire
Mutual,
Aid
Association
and
in
the
in
the
city
of
Troy,
to
create
a
county-wide
Incident
Management
team,
which
includes
a
donation
from
Troy
regarding
a
command
vehicle
and
a
pickup
truck
the
commissioner
Nelson
his
emotion,
commissioner
Powell's
support.
R
Afternoon,
good
afternoon,
Commissioners
Tom
hardisi
on
behalf
of
Emergency
Management,
a
lot
of
moving
pieces
here,
so
I
will
try
to
be
clear
and
concise
with
this,
so
the
Oakland
County
Incident
Management
team
has
been
in
existence
since
the
mid-2000s
incident
management
teams
help
manage
large-scale
disasters
or
emergencies
commonly
across
the
country.
You
will
see
them
involved
in
wildfires
hurricanes,
more
recently
in
in
Michigan,
and
the
Oakland
County
team
was
of
assistance
during
covid.
They
were
for
us
with
the
distribution
of
PPE
as
well
as
Emergency
Medical
Response.
R
That
was
overwhelming
some
of
our
communities,
particularly
in
the
South
End.
They
assisted
in
Detroit,
with
vaccination
plans
with
a
hospital
set
up
with
the
Midland
day
and
break
so
this
team
in
Oakland
county
has
been
run
by
Mabus
3201.
There
are
two
main
fire
Mutual
Aid
organizations
in
Oakland
County
commonly
referred
to
as
the
rural
organization,
which
is
3201
and
the
more
urban
Association
which
is
3202.
R
The
Oakland
County
IMT
has
been
financially
and
mostly
management,
supported
by
the
one
group
by
by
3201
a
couple
of
years
ago.
They
came
forward
and
requested
that
we
look
at
Oakland
County.
Taking
that
over,
we
actually
had
some
some
grant
funding
and
brought
in
IMT
Consultants
who
meet
with
both
us
with
3201
reps,
with
3202
reps
with
city
managers,
and
they
came
back
with
a
recommendation
that
they
they
did
think
it
fit
best
with
Oakland
County.
R
So
with
that,
we
brought
that
to
Administration
and
then,
as
part
of
the
budget
process
for
fiscal
year,
2022
in
included
up
to
thirty
five
thousand
dollars,
which
is
mostly
for
maintenance
of
that
equipment
that
you
see
in
this
attached
agreement.
Most
of
the
equipment
purchases
that
is
right
now
owned
by
Mavis
3201
in
Troy,
was
actually
done
through
grant
fundings
that
come
through
our
office
and
then
it's
it's
been
used
for
that.
R
We
have
a
couple
of
members
of
the
leadership
team
here:
Chief
C
slick
and
chief
wheel.
So
it
is
important
to
note
that
Incident
Management
teams
they're
not
people
that
that's
like
their
job.
These
are
Representatives
heavily
from
from
cities,
Villages
and
townships,
but
not
exclusively,
who
have
extra
training
and
and
expertise
that
they
bring
together
to
help
manage
those
those
scenes.
So
we're
not.
R
These
Agreements
are
so
that
we
would
have
them
with
the
cities,
because
many
times
you're,
using
their
staff
to
come
together
and
then
possibly
with
individuals
who
are
not
working
for
a
city
and
I'll
give
one
example,
Holly
Conforti,
who
many
of
you
would
know
as
a
finance
person
here
for
the
county
for
many
years,
was
a
member
to
help
with
some
of
that
Finance
piece.
We
would
still
like
to
use
her
as
part
of
the
incident
management
team.
B
R
M
Thank
you
for
inviting
us
up
and
considering
this
proposal.
My
name
is
John
cieslick
I'm
from
the
city
of
Rochester
I'm,
the
fire
chief
I,
currently
I'm
the
coordinator
or
one
of
the
coordinators,
for
what
we
still
call
the
Oakland
County
Incident
Management
team,
because
we
work
so
closely
with
Tom
and
his
team
to
handle
emergencies
within
Oakland
County.
S
S
And
Rose
excluding
the
village
of
holly,
so
what
I
bring
to
the
table?
I'm
part
of
the
incident
management
team
as
well
I'm
on
the
communications
support
platform
of
that
and
since
Chief
Nelson
started
this
program
back
in
the
early
2000s
I've
been
involved
in
it,
and
really
this
does
seem
like
the
next
logical
step
in
progression
for
for
this
team,
it
needs
a
home
that
is
Central
and
unified
versus
two
separate
organizations.
S
M
If
I
could
just
add
one
more
thing,
Tom
talked
about
what
we've
done
from
an
emergency
standpoint,
but
with
his
guidance
and
counseling
and
his
staff.
We
are
now
making
plans
as
we
look
at
large
events.
You
know,
as
firefighters,
emergency
responders
we'd
much
rather
plan
and
be
ready
and
and
prevent
things.
So
we're
now
doing
what
we
call
incident.
Action
plans
to
get
prepared
should
something
happen,
and
we
really
don't
want
to
ever
use
those
plans.
But
we
don't
want
to
be
behind
the
curve
and
making
sure
that
we
have
things
ready
to
go.
M
So
not
only
do
we
look
at
responding
or
helping
them
manage
large
incidents
or
events,
we
are
now
also
for
Oakland
County
pre-planning
events
such
as
the
last
large
one
was
the
city
of
Rochester
Christmas
parade,
in
which
we
had
a
large
Incident
Management
team.
There
ready
to
go,
we
had
plans
in
place,
should
something
happen
and
we're
working
with
other
communities
to
make
make
sure
that
Oakland
County
and
the
events
that
we
do
here
are
safe
for
all
of
our
residents.
O
I
see
the
the
I
understand
the
context
of
this
from
what
you've
lifted
up
here
and
what
you've
both
have
been
saying.
But
one
thing
that
might
be
kind
of
a
curveball
question.
O
So
forgive
me,
but
right
now
in
Royal,
Oak
Township,
the
water
pressure
is
so
poor
because
they
need
a
new
water
main
and
like
they
have
lead
pipes
and
stuff,
that's
100
years
old
that
they
would
not
be
able
to
put
out
a
fire
if
there
was
a
fire
in
Royal,
Oak,
Township
I
know
a
few
years
ago,
there's
a
fire
in
Detroit,
where
a
similar
thing
happened
and
85
houses
burned
down.
R
R
We
look
at
it.
It's
beneficial
to
us
in
the
EOC
we're
trying
to
help
manage
resources.
The
incident
management
team
is
and
we're
trying
to
get
them
to
the
scene
Commander.
Well.
When
scenes
get
really
big,
it
gets
difficult
for
that
Incident
Commander
to
keep
track
and
manage
all
of
that.
So
the
incident
management
team
is
there
on
the
ground
being
support
to
that
Incident
Commander.
So
now
we
have
better
communication:
clear
requests
for
resources,
which
means
we
can
fill
those
resources
quicker.
