INGHAM COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS

 

RESOLUTION TO AUTHORIZE ADJUSTMENTS TO THE BUDGET AND STAFFING

FOR THE OFFICE FOR YOUNG CHILDREN

 

RESOLUTION #05-114

 

WHEREAS, the UAW-GM National Center for Human Resources has for seven years provided financial support to the Office for Young Children (OYC), to provide child care information and referral services for the hourly auto workers represented by UAW-GM  Locals #602, 652, 1618 and 1753 in Lansing area GM plants; and

 

WHEREAS, the UAW-GM support is actualized through an agreement between the Michigan Community Coordinated Child Care Association and Ingham County authorized in Resolution  #90-178; and

 

WHEREAS, the approved 2005 OYC budget anticipated $333,133 in support from UAW-GM; and   

 

WHEREAS, because of national restructuring of human resources benefits, UAW-GM is only able to offer $188,509 for these services in 2005; and 

 

WHEREAS, the OYC staff has developed a plan to accommodate the loss in revenue by holding open three existing vacant positions; and

 

WHEREAS, the Health Officer has recommended that the Board of Commissioners adjust the Health Department’s 2005 Budget to recognize the loss of revenue and similarly adjust anticipated expenditures in salary and benefit costs. 

 

THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, that the Ingham County Board of Commissioners authorizes the Controller to adjust the 2005 Office for Young Children Budget to implement this resolution by reducing the UAW-GM revenue by $144,624 and reducing the OYC expenses by a similar amount by holding open three vacant OYC positions (HLHOYC022, HLHOYC018, and HLHOYC014).

 

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, the Board Chairperson is authorized to sign the four attachments to the Michigan-4C Association agreement, as authorized in Resolution #90-178, after review by the County Attorney.
