CHARTER TOWNSHIP OF OXFORD COUNTY OF OAKLAND MICHIGAN
SYNOPSIS
Of the Regular Meeting of the Charter Township of Oxford Board of Trustees held on December 10th, 2003 at the Oxford Veterans Memorial Civic Center.
PRESENT: Trustee Clancy, Supervisor Dunn, Trustee Dywasuk, Treasurer Ferrari, Trustee Fitchena, Trustee Kniffen, Clerk Sanderson
ABSENT: None
The following actions were taken:
Approved the agenda as amended with the following additions:
9.c. Open and Closed Session-Personnel
9.d. Open and Closed Session – Pending Litigation Charter Township of Oxford v Village of Oxford and O.P.F.E.C.
10k. Committee Member Fees Assigned to the Appropriate Fund
Approved the following minutes: Regular Meeting held November 25, 2003 as presented.
Approved the bills through December 4, 2003 with the following change and authorized Clerk Sanderson to issue warrants and distribute fund accordingly:
Page 6; Allen Tree Care-changed from $1,600.00 to $1,100.00
Approved meeting in Open Session to entertain a motion and take a roll call vote regarding calling a Closed Session to consider the following: Confidential Attorney/Client Privileged Correspondence regarding Pending Litigation B.P.G.C. L.L.C. v Charter Township of Oxford with attendance to include Recording Secretary Exel, Township Attorney Dovre and Shannon Parry, Rowe, Inc.
Closed the Closed Session.
Modified the REUs previously established for the Boulder Pointe Golf & Conference Center from 31.09 to 21.79, accepting the calculations and alternate approach to assigning REUs for the golf course use portion of that facility based on the number of plumbing fixtures and anticipated water usage/sewage flow per fixture for country clubs as outlined in the November 19, 2003 letter by Jeffrey J. Huhta, P.E., of Nowak & Fraus, PLLC.
As a public and not a private golf course, Boulder Pointe has consistently challenged the approach previously recommended by the County and adopted by the Township for the golf course use, treating each of the 282 lockers at the facility as representing one (1) member at .08 REUs per member under the Oakland County Schedule for the country club classification.
The Cincinnati Report that is referenced in and a basis for that Schedule contains the same county club daily water usage/sewage flow per plumbing fixture quantities as the State of Michigan Health Department criteria submitted and relied upon by Mr. Huhta.
Therefore, while Mr. Huhta’s proposed method of assigning REUs for the golf course based on anticipated water usage and sewage flows per plumbing fixture is different than the per member approach under the County Schedule, approving its use in this case is not inconsistent with the County Schedule the Township has adopted for use.
In addition to having a basis under the County Unit Assignment Schedule, allowing this alternate approach to calculating the REUs, is consistent with the Ordinances which refer to potential usage, and does not rely on actual usage as previously requested by the prior owner/operator and rejected by the Board.
This motion shall not be effective until an Order approved by the Township Attorney has been entered in Oakland County Circuit Court Case No. 02-039679-AA, dismissing with prejudice and without any award off costs or attorney fees, the Claim of Appeal and any other claims against the Township related to the water and sewer connection fees that could have been joined in that action.
Approved meeting in Open Session to entertain a motion and take a roll call vote regarding calling a Closed Session for the purpose of discussing information subject to confidentiality requirements in the Americans with Disabilities Act with attendance to include Recording Secretary Exel, Township Attorney Kaye and for relevant points only, attendance of Deputy Supervisor Burns.
Closed the Closed Session.
Approved paying the Deputy Supervisor for time already worked with the understanding that immediately that there is no provision for any employee to work at home unless changed by the Personnel Policy.
Scheduled a Special Meeting for Monday, December 15, 2003; 7:00 p.m, for all agenda items not addressed tonight.
Authorized Supervisor Dunn to sign the Wolf Law Firm contract of December 2, 2003 as presented on behalf of the Township contingent upon the Village and O.P.F.E.C. doing the same.
Approved the Michigan Bell Telephone d/b/a SBC-METRO Act Permit Application as presented.
Repealed the October 22, 2003 Resolution – Amended Policy Regarding Existing Zoned Parcels Seeking Sewer Allocation Greater Than That Allocated In Oxford Township’s Sewer Master Plan.
At 10:54 p.m., extended the meeting until 11:30 p.m.
Approved meeting in Open Session to entertain a motion and take a roll call vote regarding calling a Closed Session to consider pending litigation of Charter Township of Oxford v Village of Oxford and O.P.F.E.C. and associated issues with attendance to include Recording Secretary Exel and Township Attorney Kaye.
Closed the Closed Session.
