Oakland County Road Commission New Administration Building

construction halted

The project involves constructing a new, unified administration building for the Oakland County Road Commission to bring all administrative staff together in a single building adjacent to the agency’s largest operations center on Pontiac Lake Road in Waterford Township. The building aims to improve agency efficiency and promote safety through enhanced staff collaboration. The project has been in planning for decades, with savings accumulated for over 12 years, and a contract was signed last year without incurring debt. However, construction has been halted due to a two-member majority vote on the board, with political interference from the County Board of Commissioners.
