"Oakland County Parks values what you value - family relationships,

good health, community connections, environmental stewardship and economic

stability. Oakland County Parks provides 13 parks including 68 miles of trails,

day-use parks, campgrounds, nature centers, waterparks and golf courses. The

parks system serves 1.5 million visitors annually. 

     On August 3, 2010, Oakland County voters will be asked to vote on the renewal

of a 10-year millage of .2415 for the purpose of operating, maintaining, improving

and acquiring parks and recreation areas and facilities in Oakland County, Michigan.

     For a home valued at $200,000, the homeowner currently pays less than $25 a

year to support the Oakland County Parks."
