So we have a couple different ones, so we are going to start off with Patriot Week. 50 00:03:27,920 --> 00:03:33,580 And so we wanted to let you know that here it is that we are going to go through Patriot Week. 51 00:03:33,660 --> 00:03:37,760 So it says, whereas throughout our country's history, the people of our great state and 52 00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:42,200 nation have worked together to ensue the preservation of the American ideals for 53 00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:47,300 freedom and liberty as we enjoy today, whereas American patriotism has endured through times 54 00:03:47,300 --> 00:03:51,860 of turmoil and times of peace, carrying our nation through the darkest of history and strengthening 55 00:03:51,860 --> 00:03:56,700 our commitment to the ideals upon which our country was founded, and whereas a deepening 56 00:03:56,700 --> 00:04:01,420 appreciation for those ideals will help guarantee America's spirit of freedom and liberty, 57 00:04:02,140 --> 00:04:06,980 and whereas in a great reverence to the victims of the attacks of September 11, 2001, 58 00:04:06,980 --> 00:04:12,560 One, and in recognition of the signing of the Constitution on September 17, 1887, 59 00:04:13,100 --> 00:04:16,880 Patriot Week is a time to celebrate the principle set forth by our founding fathers, 60 00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:22,380 as well as countless patriots, vital documents, speeches, and flags that help make America great. 61 00:04:22,700 --> 00:04:24,100 The great nation it is today. 62 00:04:24,660 --> 00:04:31,600 Therefore, I, Chris Bernat, and Julia Dauremble, do hereby proclaim that the dates of September 11th, 63 00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:37,140 and including September 17th be known as celebrated as Patriot Week and September 11th, 64 00:04:37,140 --> 00:04:42,920 2026 as Patriot Day in Orient Township and do Urge and encourage all residents to join 65 00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:47,160 in recognizing and honoring those who have guided our nation, state and township in the past, 66 00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:52,100 and those especially our first responders who are willingly to carry on this tradition today. 67 00:04:58,520 --> 00:05:03,660 And then we have another one today, which is the Proclamation of National Suicide Prevention Month, 68 00:05:03,660 --> 00:05:27,960 Whereas September is known as National Suicide Prevention Month and is intended to help increase awareness of suicide prevention resources available in our community, and whereas World Suicide Prevention Day is observed each year on September 10th, and whereas 69 00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:34,660 of the leading causes of death in the United States, and whereas Michigan reported 1,443 deaths 70 00:05:34,660 --> 00:05:40,460 by suicide in 2024, with 153 of these individuals residing in Oakland County. 71 00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:47,120 And whereas organizations like the National Alliance on Mental Illness and the 988 Suicide 72 00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:52,040 and Crisis Lifeline work to help individuals in crisis and provide resources to shed light 73 00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:53,760 on this highly stigmatized topic. 74 00:05:53,760 --> 00:06:00,820 And whereas each of us carries unseed in burdens, and our community is strengthened when we choose compassion, kindness and understanding. 75 00:06:01,220 --> 00:06:11,460 And whereas the North Oakland Community Coalition is committed to serving as a trusted community partner by cultivating meaningful relationships that strengthen, support, and connect our community. 76 00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:21,400 Therefore, I, Chris Barnett, and Julie Larable, along with the North Oakland Community Coalition hereby recognize September 26th as National Suicide Prevention Month. 77 00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:38,520 and call upon our citizens, government agencies, public and private institutions, businesses, faith-based organizations, and schools to commit to increasing awareness and understanding of suicide prevention and the need for appropriate and accessible services to assist individuals in crisis. 78 00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:46,300 And we have one more today, and that is the proclamation of 988 day. 79 00:06:46,740 --> 00:06:51,160 And this one says, whereas the Charter Township of Orion in collaboration with the North 80 00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:56,280 Oakland Community Coalition, National Prevention Suicide Week, and National Suicide Prevention 81 00:06:56,280 --> 00:06:58,860 Month is recognizing 988 day. 82 00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:06,040 And whereas Tuesday, September 8th, 2026, marks 988 day, an annual day of action dedicated 83 00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:11,780 to spreading awareness of the 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline and emphasizing the importance 84 00:07:11,780 --> 00:07:12,640 of mental health. 85 00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:17,100 And whereas a day of action encourages charter township of Orient residents to engage 86 00:07:17,100 --> 00:07:20,240 with discussion with friends and loved ones about mental health. 87 00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:24,800 And whereas the charter township of Orient residents can participate in events, including 88 00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:30,480 walks, runs, and community

ensure more people know that compassionate support is available whenever they need it. 91 00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:54,320 Therefore, we declare September 8th, 2026 is 988 day in the Charter Township of Orion and encourage all residents to learn about the 988 Suicide Increases Lifeline, 92 00:07:54,320 --> 00:08:03,040 support suicide prevention efforts and help spread the message that is available by calling, texting, or chatting through 988-lifeline.org. 93 00:08:10,410 --> 00:08:16,850 All right, now it is the awkward transition of the show where we are going to move into the approval of the

things about the memorial service this weekend, or just coming Friday night, please forget them, it's going to be at the memorial. 134 00:11:00,060 --> 00:11:04,680 We actually tried to do something

here tonight as the Director of NLCC, and I'm here on behalf of our Wellness Coordinator 140 00:11:34,070 --> 00:11:38,910 at NLCC, Kim Irwinowski, who was planning to be here tonight to talk about the proclamations 141 00:11:38,910 --> 00:11:42,310 you shared and wasn't able to attend, so I am speaking on her behalf. 142 00:11:43,270 --> 00:11:48,690 Colleen, I'm stopping by to just share four thoughts on the proclamations that were shared 143 00:11:48,690 --> 00:11:57,570 with you this evening. One is to talk about how fortunate we are for the police and fire services 144 00:11:57,570 --> 00:12:03,170 we have here in the township. Everything we read about in the proclamation a moment ago 145 00:12:03,170 --> 00:12:10,870 is something that we are very fortunate to have crisis response services that are still well-trained 146 00:12:10,870 --> 00:12:16,270 here in Orient Township. Not every community can say that and we have men and women in uniform 147 00:12:16,270 --> 00:12:25,170 who are excellent in identifying crisis and knowing how to change strategy in order to help people the way they need when they arrive on scene. 148 00:12:25,910 --> 00:12:27,130 So, thank you for that. 149 00:12:28,090 --> 00:12:35,470 I also wanted to mention today's 988 day, NOCC does work on 988 awareness throughout the year. 150 00:12:35,910 --> 00:12:38,070 We work on it very closely in the school. 151 00:12:38,370 --> 00:12:45,360 So, every year we actually collect data on how many students are getting the message about 988 and what the service does. 152 00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:51,440 does how they can access it, so we work with students on learning about 98 and then we 153 00:12:51,440 --> 00:12:56,160 also share information with the public, the residents and our community about how to 154 00:12:56,160 --> 00:12:57,500 access that service as well. 155 00:12:58,820 --> 00:13:00,500 QPR trainings, so, 156 00:13:02,760 --> 00:13:06,360 you know, this month we're talking a lot about suicide prevention, but 157 00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:09,160 we know that this isn't just a one month of the year conversation. 158 00:13:09,780 --> 00:13:11,980 It's something we need to focus on all year long. 159 00:13:11,980 --> 00:13:17,600 So, we offer QPR trainings, which are the three-step process question, 160 00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:23,280 person, and refer, it's a 90-minute training that takes people, individuals, 161 00:13:23,860 --> 00:13:27,600 through the process of identifying crisis and knowing how to respond and help 162 00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:33,200 someone seek help or connect them to care. We offer this training free of charge 163 00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:37,840 to community residents, home-owned organizations, churches, organizations, 164 00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:45,180 school groups, township staff, if you were ever interested, it's available anytime you 165 00:13:45,180 --> 00:13:45,580 want it. 166 00:13:45,660 --> 00:13:51,440 Both Kim and I are trained facilitators of this training and we are happy to offer it. 167 00:13:52,300 --> 00:13:57,220 Kind of, you know, we like to say especially when we're talking about Narcan to our first 168 00:13:57,220 --> 00:14:03,340 responders, our phenomenal, but in reality, all the everyday people in our community were 169 00:14:03,340 --> 00:14:06,820 first responders because we're the first ones to spot differences in the people. 170 00:14:06,820 --> 00:14:13,460 we know, and so we are the first two can stuff up and offer support. 171 00:14:14,420 --> 00:14:16,820 And then something we're really, really excited about. 172 00:14:17,100 --> 00:14:20,500 We, about two years ago, were running a community survey, 173 00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:23,260 and we identified when we asked residents, 174 00:14:23,740 --> 00:14:27,940 what is one of the things that keeps you, might keep you from seeking care 175 00:14:27,940 --> 00:14:30,780 for them in a health crisis for yourself or someone in your family? 176 00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:34,360 And we learned that not really knowing who to call 177 00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:38,920 and being a little intimidated about the time it takes to connect to a provider is a barrier 178 00:14:38,920 --> 00:14:43,200 to seeking care. So this is a long process. We've been working on this project for quite 179 00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:48,140 a while but it's up and running and it's live. We partnered with ONTV and we are actually, 180 00:14:48,580 --> 00:14:53,540 we created an online video directory of health care providers, mental health care providers 181 00:14:53,540 --> 00:14:59,340 right here in Oregon and Oxford. We meet with them, we shoot video and we just kind of do a little 182 00:14:59,340 --> 00:14:59,900 and see you in the next one. 183 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:29,540 All three videos with the provider, and then ONTV has edited them for us and housed them their VOD, and then we have them on our website. So if there's a family seeking care and really doesn't know where to start, and they're intimidated about the idea that it might take three or four different visits to different providers until they find that right match, they're actually able to go and watch little videos and help ease that intimidation and find the right provider the first time. So we're really excited about that, and we're just trying to get the word out. 184 00:15:29,540 --> 00:15:32,740 the people know that it's available for them to use, and we're going to continue. 185 00:15:33,260 --> 00:15:37,040 We're going to every week it seems we have another provider who wants to be recorded, 186 00:15:37,200 --> 00:15:39,520 so we'll continue to add videos to that resource. 187 00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:40,600 Thank you. 188 00:15:40,900 --> 00:15:41,340 Thank you. 189 00:15:43,910 --> 00:15:45,830 Any other public comments this evening? 190 00:15:49,400 --> 00:15:52,620 No one rush forward, we will close public comments. 191 00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:56,380 Next up is the approval of the agenda tonight. 192 00:15:56,680 --> 00:15:59,100 Does anybody have any changes they would like to make? 193 00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:00,600 Yes. 194 00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:03,660 Madam Chair, a person I would like to approve the agenda as presenting. 195 00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:04,560 Excellent. 196 00:16:04,980 --> 00:16:05,380 Support. 197 00:16:05,800 --> 00:16:06,200 Perfect. 198 00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:08,300 All in favor? 199 00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:08,760 Aye. 200 00:16:09,760 --> 00:16:12,620 All right, next is the consent agenda. 201 00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:17,540 All the items on the screen under the consent agenda will be with one vote. 202 00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:22,500 So tonight on the agenda, we have minutes from our regular reading of August 17th. 203 00:16:22,500 --> 00:16:30,180 We have a public hearing on the proposed rule, which is the preserved sidewalk, subdivision sidewalk maintenance stat number one. 204 00:16:30,180 --> 00:16:33,680 We have minutes from a public hearing with the Orion Mod Center. 205 00:16:34,180 --> 00:16:37,660 We have a contract renewal for some recreation software. 206 00:16:38,060 --> 00:16:41,180 We have a purchase of a booster station radio upgrade. 207 00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:43,620 We also have a purchase of a lawn mower. 208 00:16:44,100 --> 00:16:46,860 We have an assessment from the Clinton River spillway. 209 00:16:47,460 --> 00:16:52,740 We need to amend a payment schedule for the agenda management software and community engagement 210 00:16:52,740 --> 00:16:53,140 portal. 211 00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:58,060 We are also amending bylaws from the North Oakland Transportation Authority. 212 00:16:58,060 --> 00:17:02,900 We are also going to schedule a public hearing for the truth and budget milled rates. 213 00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:15,740 And we also have schedule a corrective public hearing on parcel number 09-9-327-016, which is in the preserve subdivision maintenance SAD. 214 00:17:16,340 --> 00:17:20,460 All of these items can be found online in the boardbook if you're looking for more information. 215 00:17:20,880 --> 00:17:24,180 Otherwise, like I said, they will all be voted on on one item. 216 00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:26,000 Yes, Mr. Flood? 217 00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:30,880 Madam Chair, I'd like to make a comment on the men bylaws for the North Auckland Transportation Authority. 218 00:17:31,520 --> 00:17:40,640 The three townships are Addison Township or Indian Township and Oxford Township and also the villages of Lake Oren and Oxford. 219 00:17:42,820 --> 00:17:46,180 Supervisor Barnett and myself serve on the Notre Board. 220 00:17:47,440 --> 00:17:54,280 The reason for these bylaws changes is that since they've had to change with the newly approved transit authority. 221 00:17:55,780 --> 00:17:58,660 that was approved at the last general election. 222 00:17:59,480 --> 00:18:02,360 We had to make a few tweaks to our bylaws 223 00:18:02,360 --> 00:18:03,800 to bring them up the standard. 224 00:18:05,900 --> 00:18:09,320 For the public to know that we still, 225 00:18:09,980 --> 00:18:13,080 the Notre Board is still in charge of the Notre operation. 226 00:18:13,460 --> 00:18:17,720 You would know that the county now has been with this transit authority. 227 00:18:18,420 --> 00:18:22,640 It was kind of a work in progress with the Notre Board 228 00:18:22,640 --> 00:18:32,460 in the county, so in it takes all three of us townships to approve the bylaws, so I add 229 00:18:32,460 --> 00:18:36,500 us in the doctorate township, we'll be also going through this.
