BUSINESS AGENDA
DISCUSSION OF THE OUTCOME OF THE JOINT SUBCOMMITTEE MEETING
REGARDING THE GIBBS PLANNING GROUP PROPOSAL
Peddie presented the results of the subcommittee meeting, which was attended by members of
Council, the Planning Commission, and representatives from Gibbs Planning Group. Gibbs
suggested having a Return on Investment/Cost Benefit Study done. This study would look at the
Corridor and give the Village an indication if properties will provide desirable investment
opportunity for developers. Gibbs has offered to provide the wording for this proposal, and
REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES – OCTOBER 4, 2016 – PAGE 2
suggest companies to whom it can be presented. Once the study has been completed, Gibbs has
offered to assist the Village in reviewing the results and developing the next step in their plan.
Gibbs estimates that the proposal will cost the Village $5,000 to $6,000.
Abboud stated the Village needs to grow the downtown plan, and Gibbs has presented a viable
strategic plan to give a clear understanding of the potential in the downtown area.
Oen agreed this suggested study is the best next step. Gibbs is committed to retaining the
character of the Village while working to develop it into a walkable downtown area.
Planning Commission Chairman Ostrowski said the Cost Benefit Analysis can be looked at as a
litmus test on the possibilities for the downtown area. This will help the Village identify what this
area would look like, and through working with Gibbs, identify any shortcomings to help protect
the Village.
Mooney clarified that the area being considered is from the Village Offices east to Southfield and
13 Mile Road north to Beverly Road. He suggested that a formal proposal be submitted to
Council contracting with Gibbs Planning Group to assist the Village on developing a proposal for
a Cost Benefit Analysis to be put out to bid. Gibbs would charge for his assistance on this
proposal on an hourly basis specified in the contract.
PUBLIC HEARING TO RECEIVE COMMENTS ON A REQUEST FROM DETROIT
COUNTRY DAY FOR SPECIAL LAND USE APPROVAL TO BUILD AN ADDITION
ON THE MIDDLE SCHOOL
Abboud explained Detroit Country Day School has submitted a proposal to expand their existing
Middle School building and complete an emergency access route. The property is zoned R-1
which permits private schools upon special land use approval. The site plan details an expansion
of the school footprint by approximately 16,305 sq ft and total expansion over three floors of
48,465 sq ft. The proposal also includes expansion of the existing parking lot and completion of
a required emergency access route. The school seeks to add a grade level (5th) to the student
population as part of this expansion.
On Wednesday, May 25, 2016 at their regular meeting, the Planning Commission held a public
hearing regarding the special land use in accordance with Section 22.08.300. At that meeting, the
Planning Commission recommended approval of the special land use. On Monday, August 8,
2016 at their regular meeting, the Zoning Board of Appeals granted a variance from height
requirements of Section 22.24, which limits buildings in an R-1 district to two stories and 30 feet
maximum to allow the addition that will be 42 feet high and 3 stories. The addition matches the
size of the original building. A variance was granted for the original building in 1987. On
Wednesday, August 24, 2016 the Planning Commission recommended approval of the site plan
with a provision allowing Detroit Country Day School to commence work on a log jam at the
south end of the property following permit issuance from the Department of Environmental
Quality (DEQ). The voluntary removal of a log jam was added to the proposal upon receiving
input from neighboring residents.
REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES – OCTOBER 4, 2016 – PAGE 3
Detroit Country Day School commissioned a traffic study that recommended improvements to
the intersection at Hillview Lane and Lahser Road. The school has included those improvements
with their site plan. In cooperation with Beverly Hills Public Safety, the site plan includes crash
gates at both access points to the emergency drive to prohibit general vehicle traffic.
Additionally, the site plan has been reviewed by Hubbell, Roth & Clark and LSL Planning.
Sam Ashley, Cunningham-Limp, explained that the need for expansion is based on the growth of
Detroit Country Day (DCD) school’s population causing them to outgrow their current building.
The new building will house 19 assigned classrooms in addition to specialty classrooms, and
offices. In June 2016, DCD and surrounding residents were able to meet to discuss the residents’
concerns. DCD is voluntarily removing the log jam located in the river and plans to have a control
signal put into place to combat the traffic flow concerns. On July 15, 2016, they hosted a
community meeting and feel that the communication between DCD and the residents has greatly
improved.
President Mooney opened the Public Hearing at 8:00 p.m.
Don MacDonald, Foxboro Way, feels the traffic at 13 Mile and Lahser is already so congested he
cannot support this expansion. He stated that DCD holds activities on the field every evening
using the lights which were not there when he bought his home.
Camille Fath, Lincolnshire, would like written verification that DCD is not encroaching on the
flood zone, and that they have the appropriate measures in place to control the watershed.
Dave Ruby, Lincolnshire, would like to know if a study was done on the impact of the roof water
being piped directly into the river or the effectiveness of the retention ponds.
Ashley explained that once site plan approval is granted, every project has to submit civil
engineering plans, and those plans have to meet state of Michigan, Oakland County and the
Village of Beverly Hills codes. All plans are verified and signed by the engineers who design and
check them. All work is inspected and verified that it meets the requirements and follows the
approved plans. He explained there is an underground storm water retention area on the property
as required by the State, the County, and the Village. Like the other water retention areas on the
property, this one will be maintained via an agreement with the Village. He suggested that the
high quantity of rain that had been received in the last week may have contributed to the sudden
rise in water levels in the river.
Ashley stated the traffic study that was conducted on Lahser concluded that the addition would
add another 80 cars to the roadway. He agrees that it is a busy roadway, and explained that their
influence on changing the road is limited; those decisions are made by the Road Commission for
Oakland County. He does feel that installing the light will help improve the flow of the traffic.
Ashley explained that the mountain bike path was initially built to keep the DCD students on
campus and out of the surrounding neighborhoods. The bike path will be closed when
construction begins, and will not be reopened. Based on DEQ recommendations, there will be a
50-foot conservation area and green belt along the riverbank to help counter erosion.
REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES – OCTOBER 4, 2016 – PAGE 4
Stewart Mandell, Highbank Drive, stated that the flooding and erosion has gotten worse since
May, and wondered if a larger retention pond could be built.
Ashley explained that compensatory storage is being included in addition to the storm water
retention system. When work is done in and around a floodplain it creates a lower recess and
compensatory storage is used to offset any loss of flood storage capacity. This plan has been
approved by the DEQ.
Fath feels that the bulldozed bike paths are what has caused the erosion. She expressed concern
that DCD is not accurately calculating their water retention needs and that is why the river keeps
rising.
No one else wished to be heard, Mooney closed the public hearing at 8:28 p.m.
REVIEW AND CONSIDER SPECIAL LAND USE APPROVAL FOR ADDITION TO
MIDDLE SCHOOL FACILITY AND COMPLETION OF FIRE DEPARTMENT ACCESS
ROUTE FOR DETROIT COUNTRY DAY SCHOOL, 22305 W. THIRTEEN MILE ROAD
Delaney suggested that in the best interest of the residents this item should be tabled until
protection of the residents’ property can be assured.
Mueller confirmed that the water retention plan must be approved by the DEQ, County, and
Village before DCD can proceed with their project. Ryan stated that water retention is a site plan
issue, and all water retention designs and specifications are mandated at the County level.
Peddie stated that she is in favor of the addition, but would like to see the residents protected and
have some assurances for their property protection.
Abboud pointed out that this proposal has been before the Planning Commission and the Zoning
Board of Appeals with support and approval.
Oen stated that if approved the plan will still be evaluated and modified to meet all requirements.
Delaying the approval of the special land use or site plan will not assist in expediting a storm
water study.
Motion by Abboud, second by Oen, be it resolved that Village Council approves the
special land use request for Detroit Country Day to build an addition onto their existing
Middle School building.

Motion passed (7 – 0).
REVIEW AND CONSIDER SITE PLAN FOR ADDITION TO MIDDLE SCHOOL
FACILITY AND COMPLETION OF FIRE DEPARTMENT ACCESS ROUTE FOR
DETROIT COUNTRY DAY SCHOOL, 22305 W. THIRTEEN MILE ROAD
Wilson explained Council has approved special land use. If the site plan is approved, there is a
process that requires several engineers’ approval on the plan. The Rouge River is a major
REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES – OCTOBER 4, 2016 – PAGE 5
drainage basin, and due to high rain fall there has been flooding in several areas in the county.
Any building built has to meet storm water standards set by the DEQ. Wilson stated that it is not
reasonable to hold DCD responsible for all of the erosion that is happening along the river. The
responsibility of DCD is to maintain and prevent erosion on their property.
Mooney stated that the mitigation of rain water that falls on hard surfaces is a standard set by
Oakland County and has to be approved by their engineering team. The DEQ also has standards
and requirements for water retention that must be met.
Ryan explained that although the Village could request that DCD create a larger water retention
pool, they can decline; the Village cannot require more than the DEQ standards.
Wilson explained that the size retention basin that would be needed for the kind of control being
discussed is beyond the scope of the DCD project; it would become a large scope public works
project.
Fath feels that residents are already overwhelmed by the current river problems and that
approving the site plan would add more problems to an already serious problem.
Mandell agreed that all of the problems are not the fault of DCD. His concern is that once the site
plan is approved it cannot be undone, and he would not want it to generate more problems in the
future; his goal is to mitigate damage to homeowners.
Ruby suggested that instead of building for a 100 year flood occurrence as mandated, they could
consider 150 year flood. He reiterated concern about the erosion along the banks of the river.
Wilson suggested that residents contact the DEQ to address the issues of erosion.
Ostrowski explained the impact on river flow is a multi-jurisdiction problem. He stated the
Planning Commission reviewed this site plan extensively, DCD met with the neighbors as well as
the DEQ and at the August 24, 2016, Planning Commission meeting it appeared that DCD and the
neighbors had reached a consensus.
Ashley stated that DCD commissioned a drainage study that was provided to Council, and
received approval from the DEQ to remove the logs and reinforce the banks.
MacDonald stated that the only Public Hearing notice he received was the one for this Council
meeting. He reiterated that when DCD school is not in session he sees a significant drop in the
amount of traffic at the intersection.
Ashley explained that DCD met with the residents of the Georgetown neighborhood on the west
side of the property and their landscape architect, Jim Scott. A green scape was designed and
agreed upon; foregoing the short shrubs as required by the ordinance for taller evergreens that
would provide better coverage.
Mueller thanked DCD and Ashley for working with the neighbors. He inquired about the grade of
the emergency access road in relation to the neighbors. Ashley stated that the road slopes north to
REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES – OCTOBER 4, 2016 – PAGE 6
south and is below the property line grade along the entire road. The road will not be visible to the
neighbors. The bi-fold gates extend across the road at both ends which are locked by Knox box
as supplied by the Public Safety Department, landscaping prohibits anyone from driving around
the gates. Ashley confirmed that the planting along the former bike path area would begin in the
Spring of 2017.
Motion by Abboud, second by Oen, be it resolved that Village Council approves site plan
dated August 12, 2016 for Detroit Country Day to build an addition onto their existing
Middle School building and completion of emergency access route. This approval
includes the permanent removal of the bike path, removal of a log jam in the Rouge
River, bank stabilization per DEQ permit and regulations, and planting along the bike
path area based on consultation and consensus with neighbors. The site plan is subject to
final engineer review relative to the storm water management plan. Along the west side,
the greenscape design as approved by residents and DCD will forego short shrubs and
replace them with taller evergreens which provide better sightline coverage.
Roll Call Vote
Motion passed (7 – 0).
REVIEW AND CONSIDER AWARDING CONTRACT FOR JANITORIAL SERVICES
AT THE BEVERLY HILLS MUNICIPAL BUILDING
Oen explained bids were taken Tuesday, September 13, 2016, for janitorial services for the newly
remodeled Village Administration Building. The bids ranged from $640.00/month to
$6,500.00/month. The lowest bid was submitted by Sunset Maintenance, the current company, but
due to the need for a higher level of service, it is recommended the Village Council accept the
second lowest bid as submitted by CleanNet USA.
Motion by Oen, second by Delaney, be it resolved that the Village Council accepts the
second lowest bid for janitorial services for the Village Administrative Building from
CleanNet USA.
Roll Call Vote
Motion passed (7 – 0).
REFER REQUEST FOR SITE PLAN APPROVAL FOR NEW LIGHT POLES AT
BEVERLY HILLS CLUB, 31555 SOUTHFIELD ROAD TO THE PLANNING
COMMISSION FOR REVIEW AND RECOMMENDATION
Abboud explained Beverly Hills Club, 31555 Southfield Road, has submitted plans to add four
pole lights to their parking lot. Per Section 22.09.020 (a) this project requires site plan approval.
Motion by Abboud, second by Borgon, that the Village Council refers plans submitted by
Beverly Hills Club for addition of four pole lights to their parking lot to the Planning
Commission for recommendation.
Motion passed.

Re:
Next
Date: October 6, 2016
Background
Next works to identify and meet the needs of older adults by coordinating community resources
to provide educational, recreational and social programs; supportive outreach services; and
volunteer opportunities to seniors in the Village of Beverly Hills and the greater Birmingham
School District community. The Village of Beverly Hills does not currently provide these
opportunities on its own.
The Village Council approved funding in the FY 2016/17 Budget for contract community action
programs. Thirty thousand dollars ($35,483) was allocated for Next. Next is requesting a
contribution of $35,483 to cover the funding of these important functions being provided to the
community by the organization. A contract entailing the services provided is attached for
Council consideration.
Suggestion Motion
Be it resolved that the Council for the Village of Beverly Hills approves the funding request from
Next in the amount of $35,483 for the provision of senior services, further that Administration is
directed to sign the contract document providing for this continuing community service. Funds
are available in account #101-747-891.

writing at least 60 days prior to the anniversary date that it desires to modify
or terminate this Agreement.
5. This Agreement sets forth the entire understanding between the Village and
Next, and cannot be changed except by a writing signed by both the Village
and Next. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and shall be binding
upon, the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.
Next may not assign this Agreement without the Village’s prior written
consent. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed under the laws
of the State of Michigan. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be

REGARDING THE UNIFORM VIDEO SERVICE LOCAL FRANCHISE AGREEMENT
WITH AT&T
Moved By
Supported By
WHEREAS, effective January 1, 2007, the Uniform Video Service Local Franchise Act,
Act. No. 480 of the Public Acts of 2006 (“Act”) went into effect; and,
WHEREAS, Section 3 of the Act requires a Video Service Provider (Provider) to submit
a complete Franchise Agreement with the local unit of government, prior to offering video
services within the boundaries of a local unit of government (Franchising Entity); and,
WHEREAS, Section 3(2) of the Act requires a Franchising Entity to notify the Provider
as to whether the submitted Franchise Agreement is complete as required by the Act within 15

WHEREAS, the Agreement submitted by AT&T satisfies the requirements of the Act,
and the Agreement meets the technical requirements of the Act, and, therefore, the Village

required by the Act, and is not an indication of the Village’s Agreement with or assent to any
provisions of the Act or Agreement.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that by approving the Agreement, the Village shall not

VILLAGE MANAGER’S REPORT
CHRIS D. WILSON
OCTOBER 14, 2016
Village Rehab and Move – Village Staff will be moving into the renovated office space on
Wednesday, October 19th. It will be necessary to close the office down that day for the move.
We will be relocating some furniture and files from the Council Chambers into the new office
space. We will also be moving items currently in storage or in the storage pod back into the
building. In addition, we will transfer all phone and data lines and equipment into the new office
space the same day. We will not be able to issue building permits on this day. Residents will
be able to drop off water bill payments in the drop box. We appreciate the patience and
understanding.
Some of the new furniture and chairs will likely not be available on the 19th. We are going to
move anyway. We will utilize what we have until the new furniture is available. We will dispose
of much of the older furniture and chairs when the new furniture arrives. We have been
coordinating the scheduling of the second phase of the project with the contractor. Village
Administration is working the scheduling of this phase of the project around the election of Nov.
8th. The Council Chambers will be used that day for counting absentee ballots.
Liability Insurance Renewal – Village Administration met with representatives of Michigan
Municipal Risk Management for the annual renewal of our liability insurance policy. Renewal of
his policy will be on the agenda for Council’s review and consideration at the regular meeting of
November 1st.
FY 2015-16 Audit – Village Administration will be meeting with the auditors from Plante Moran
next week to review the audit results for the 2015-16 fiscal year. The annual presentation of the
audit to the Council and public is scheduled for Tuesday, November 15th.
Summer Water Sales – I pass along for your review some information that was provided at our
last SOCWA meeting regarding summer water sales. As you can see, water sales across all
communities was up significantly in 2016 over 2015. In the Village, water sales for June, July
and August were up 41.6%. As you will recall, 2015 as well as 2013 and 2014 were not good
years for water sales. Temperatures were relatively low and there was a lot of summer rain
during these years. 2016 was a more typical summer season with higher temps and significant
periods of dry weather. The last similar season was 2012. Interestingly, when you compare
2016 sales with 2012 sales there is also a clear pattern. Water sales in all communities were
down in 2016 as compared with 2012. Overall sales were down over 9%. In the Village, sales
in 2016 were down 16.6% from 2012. These figures support the theory that while overall sales
volumes fluctuate from year to year, the overall trend for water usage is a negative one.

Officers were called to assist Birmingham Police on a gun complaint.
Officers arrived to the scene and assisted getting the family members
out of the house. Lt. Shock, made contact with the suspect who
peaceably came out of the house. PSO’s Eng and Balagna were also
part of the investigation. The investigation was turned over to
Birmingham Police.
The 46th District Court is happy to announce the online case review to
citizens as part of an initiative to expand access to justice. Parties may
now resolve eligible traffic violations and warrants through an online
system. The 46th District Court, Judge Shelia Johnson and staff along
with police agencies in the 46th District Court will be online to have
citizens pay via internet. The concept has been around for about two
years and many courts and police agencies have gone to this with a
98% rating. The online platform allows for communication between the
citizen, the court and law enforcement by way of emails and text
messages. There is no fee to use the system but the user will be
charged transaction fees for financial truncations. Citizens no longer
have to take a day off work or drive to the busy court and wait. Citizens
can visit https://www.courtinnovations.com/cii/MID46 to start the
resolution process online.
Just a reminder for those who live in the Village, we take all medications
that you do not need or wish to get rid of. Particularly opiates which are
very problematic in today’s world. Please do not bring needles or plastic
bottles if possible. If you have any questions please call the Public
Safety Department at 248 540 3400.
Officers investigated a larceny case when a subject from Bloomfield met
a man at Southfield and 13 Mile to buy an item off Craigslist. The item
was purchased and the buyer found out the item was stolen. The buyer
then contacted Beverly Hills Public Safety. Any time you wish to have a
purchase from someone you don’t know, you can come to the Public
Safety Department and use our lobby to do business. We have cameras
outside and inside. You are protected. Just come in and tell the officer
you wish to wait for your seller and conduct busy in our lobby.

REGULAR PARKS & RECREATION BOARD MEETING MINUTES – SEPTEMBER 15, 2016 – PAGE 2
It is difficult to assess if the partnership with Kadima resulted in higher movie attendance. The Board
agreed that they could be open to working with Kadima in the future, but would need more
communication on the publicity, and more help with clean-up.
DISCUSS NEW ATTRACTIONS AT BEVERLY PARK
Borgon presented the idea of a book event in the park. The event would be a read in the park event,
paring with a local bookstore, and working with the schools as an opportunity to connect students with
authors and encourage reading. This event has been done in Berkley, and Borgon has made
arrangements to meet with their representative to gather more information.
Hausman reported that a second part of the event would be a “Storybook Trail” where pages of a book
are printed in a large size and posted along the trail, and people are encouraged to follow the trail to read
the story. Baldwin Library has expressed an interest in paring with the Board for a reading event. The
Board brainstormed various components of this event including storytellers, authors, and an incentive
program.
COUNCIL LIAISON COMMENTS
Mueller shared that he is looking forward to seeing the drinking fountain and ping pong table proposals
being presented to Council. He thinks the new event sounds like a wonderful event and he is excited to
see what comes next year. He expressed great satisfaction with the job Jason’s Outdoor Services has
done in the park this year, and updated the Board that at the September 20, 2016 Council meeting he
will be presenting a proposal to remove trees in the parking lot and replace them with nine locust trees.

course. She reported that new signs have been installed at the tennis courts. Janice Hausman and Pat
Greenings names have been added to the Parks and Recreation appreciation plaque in the lobby of the

water bottle filling station. She also expressed an interest in having access to the Village social media

Manager Chris Wilson regarding this.
Davis expressed how lovely the Park has looked this year and her appreciation for all of the support that
Council has shown the Board.

REGULAR PARKS & RECREATION BOARD MEETING MINUTES – SEPTEMBER 15, 2016 – PAGE 3
Schmitt thinks the watering bags used on the newly planted trees this summer made a huge difference.
He thanked Council members for their compliments and reiterated that the support from them is what
makes it all possible.
Hausman also thanked Council for all of their ongoing support. She reported that she spoke with a
representative from the ping pong table company, and they suggested a concrete pad engineered for the

DISCUSSION AND POSSIBLE RENEWAL OF OAKLAND COUNTY ANIMAL
CONTROL SERVICES CONTRACT:
Page 6- Board of Trustees Regular Meeting Minutes- September 13, 2016- DRAFT
Supervisor Schmitt commented the Oakland County Animal Control Center is our backup
location for housing and disposing of animals, and our primary kennel for aggressive animals.
Although we seldom use the county’s shelter and services, we do need to keep it in case it is
needed.
Our existing contract with the County runs through September 30, 2016. The County has sent us
a new proposed contract covering the period of October 1, 2007, through September 30, 2019.
The language is similar to the present contract. The rates are going up slightly. The current rates
are listed on the pertinent pages of the old contract. In 2015, and so far in 2016, we have not
needed any of the County’s services.
My recommendation is that we approve the renewal.
Resolved by Cook, supported by Scarcello, to approve the Oakland County Animal Care Center
Service and Disposal Interlocal Agreement, covering the period of October 1, 2016 through
September 30, 2019, and authorize the Supervisor and Clerk to execute the contract on the
Township’s behalf.

DISCUSSION AND POSSIBLE RESOLUTION FOR ADOPTION OF BUILDING
SERVICES AGREEMENT AND APPOINTMENT OF ENFORECEMENT AGENT:
Supervisor Schmitt noted the proposed Agreement between Professional Services and the
Village of Beverly Hills, Southfield Township and SAFEbuilt MICHIGAN, LLC has been
negotiated and approved by the Township’s attorney as well as Beverly Hills’ attorney.
Supervisor Schmitt noted for the record, since it is cancelable upon 30 days’ notice, the
Agreement was approved as a temporary interim agreement as authorized at the July BOT
meeting.
Clerk Tischler commented the Royal Oak Building Department should supply the Village and
Township with all the information they have maintained during the time they acted as the
Building Department for Beverly Hills and Southfield Township.
Clerk Tischler stated that plans and permits issued for the Township Only parcels are and should
be maintained at the Township Office.
The Board agreed.
Page 7- Board of Trustees Regular Meeting Minutes- September 13, 2016- DRAFT
Resolved by Nelson, seconded by Scarcello, that the Southfield Township Board hereby adopts
the Professional Services Agreement Between the Village of Beverly Hills, Michigan and
Southfield Township, Michigan and SAFEbuilt MICHIGAN, LLC, signed by the Supervisor
August 4, 2016.
It is further resolved that the Southfield Township Board hereby appoints SAFEbuilt
MICHIGAN LLC, and/or its agents, as the official authorized to enforce all relevant codes.

FIRST READING OF CHANGES TO THE ANIMAL CONTROL ORDINANCE:
Supervisor Schmitt commented at the July Board meeting we approved a revised Animal Control
Ordinance and forwarded it to our attorney to insert the changes into ordinance form.
The Procedure for implementation requires two readings. This is followed by an affirmative vote of
the Board, and then the proposed ordinance, or a summary, must be published 30 days before the
new ordinance can go into effect.
The plan is to have a first reading in September and second reading and vote in October. Then to
have the ordinance, or summary, published in time for the new ordinance to be in place by
January 1, 2017.
Supervisor Schmitt read the following amendments to the Animal Control Ordinance:
Sections: 90.02; 90.05; 90.26; 90.28; 90.41; 90.42; 90.43
After general discussion there was a request for additional clarification of the definition of a
fence and it was noted that there are no procedures in place for handling fines and fees.
Other than the reading, no other action is required at the September meeting.
DISCUSSION ANN POSSIBLE UPDATE OF COMPENSATION STUDY:
Supervisor Schmitt mentioned last December, after discussion, we tabled any action on a
possible Update of the Classification and Compensation Study, performed by the MML at a cost
of $2,516 in 1996.
The cost of the update (from December 2015) could be $4,200. Of course, some of the offered
services might not be necessary for such a small office, and particularly considering the speed
job descriptions change with technology.
Page 8- Board of Trustees Regular Meeting Minutes- September 13, 2016- DRAFT
Supervisor Schmitt noted this item was not budgeted and inquired if the Board was interested in
pursuing the study.
After general discussion, it was the consensus of the Board to re-visit this topic in two years.
DISCUSSION AND POSSIBLE APPROVAL OF JULY EXPENDITURES:
Motion by Walsh, supported by Cook, to approve the July expenditures as follows:
101 General Fund
703 Tax Fund
Total
$ 58,903.84
$4,091,001.70
$4,149,095.54

COMMENTS FROM THE BOARD:
Treasurer Mooney commented the State and the Assessing Department at the County have
resumed communication.
Trustee Walsh noted the South Oakland County Water Authority (SOCWA) will meet tomorrow
at 8:30 a.m. at the City of Lathrup Village. Trustee Walsh added in the current issue of the
Township News on page 24 and 25 there is an article on Muhammed Ali.
Page 9- Board of Trustees Regular Meeting Minutes- September 13, 2016- DRAFT
Trustee Scarcello inquired about the possible reduction in Revenue Sharing.
Treasurer Mooney responded it barely impacts the Township. The Township is not eligible for
State Shared Revenue however we do receive the Constitutional Shared Revenue.
Supervisor Schmitt is happy about straight ticket.
Supervisor Schmitt adjourned the meeting at 8:21 p.m.
