Summary

During the meeting the board introduced several resolutions and referred them to committee for further consideration.
Commissioners introduced a resolution urging the Michigan Legislature to increase funding for the Michigan 2-1-1 helpline in fiscal year 2026; the item was referred to the Legislative Affairs and Government Operations Committee without objection. Commissioner Cavell introduced a request for a forensic audit of county fiscal controls and capital projects; the motion was referred to committee. Commissioner Nelson introduced an Oakland County whistleblower protection policy resolution and asked that it be referred to Legislative Affairs and Government Operations. Two additional resolutions — one opposing proposed federal cuts to Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) home funding and another opposing federal Medicaid cuts in the fiscal year 2026 federal budget — were introduced and referred to committee.
Clerks and committee chairs confirmed the introductions and referrals; no final board votes on these items were taken at the committee session. Each item will next be considered by the committees named at the meeting and may return to the full board for action after committee review.
