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 enhance staff collaboration for safety and operational effectiveness. The project has been in planning for decades, with funds saved for over 12 years, and a contract was signed last year without incurring debt. However, construction has been halted by a two-member majority of the board, and there is political interference threatening the project's continuation.
