MESSAGES FROM THE HOUSESB 416 (Switalski) The bill would amend the School Bond Qualification, Approval, and Loan Act, PA 92 of 2005, to change the provisions concerning the interest rate charged to school districts on School Loan Revolving Fund (SLRF) loans.
THIRD READINGSB 583 (Stamas) The bill (S-1) would amend the Community College Act to allow the treasurer of a community college district to invest certain funds of the district in certificates of deposit (CDs) with a financial institution if that institution arranged for the funds to be invested in CDs in one or more insured depository institutions, the full amount of the principal and interest of each CD were insured by an agency of the United States, and other conditions were met.
GENERAL ORDERS – (TO PASSAGE)HB 4830 (Miller) The bill (H-1) would amend the County Road Law. That act allows a county with a population of 1.5 million or more that has adopted a charter under Public Act 293 of 1966 (the charter county law) to reorganize the powers and duties otherwise provided by law for a board of county road commissioners. This reorganization can occur by amendment to the charter. House Bill 4830 would amend the County Road Law to allow this reorganization in a county with a population of 750,000 or more that "is adopting" a charter under PA 293, and would allow the reorganization "within the writing of" the charter.
GENERAL ORDERSSB 483 (Allen) The bill would amend Part 435 (Hunting and Fishing Licensing) of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act to delete a requirement that a person not possess dogs used during the hunt, when accompanying a licensed hunter on a bear or bobcat hunt without a hunting license. Part 435 prohibits a person from hunting small game or bear, or trapping or hunting fur-bearing animals, unless he or she possesses the appropriate license. If authorized, a resident possessing a current small game license may take specified fur-bearing animals by means other than trapping during the open season for hunting them. A person who goes on a bobcat or bear hunt with a licensed hunter does not have to possess a license if he or she does not carry a firearm, bow, or crossbow and does not own or possess dogs used to chase or locate a bear or bobcat during the hunt. The bill would delete the reference to possession of dogs.
SB 334 (Jelinek) Supplemental appropriations for FY 2008-2009 to accomplish savings from EO 2009-22.
SB 596 (Prusi) The bill (S-1) would authorize the State Administrative Board to convey certain property located in the City of Escanaba, Delta County, to Delta County for $1. The property would have to be used the exclusively for public purposes, including but not limited to an annual Upper Peninsula State Fair, and the State would be entitled to reenter and repossess the property if that condition were not met. Any fees, terms, or conditions for the use of the property would have to be applied uniformly to resident and nonresident members of the public. If the property were not sold to Delta County within six months after the bill's effective date, the Department of Management and Budget would have to take necessary steps to realize the best value for the property by preparing to convey it through competitive bidding, a public auction, use of real estate brokerage services, a value-for-value conveyance, or offering the property for sale for fair market value to a local unit or units of government. The property could be sold to a local unit for less than fair market value if it were used exclusively for public purposes. If the local unit intended to convey the property within three years of the conveyance from the State, the State would retain a right to first purchase the property at the original sale price. If the State waived this right, the local unit have to pay to the State 40% of the difference between the sale price of the conveyance from the State and the sale price of the local unit's subsequent sale or sales to a third party. All rights in aboriginal antiquities on, within, or under the property, would be reserved by the State. The State would not reserve the mineral rights to the property conveyed. However, if the purchaser or any grantee developed any oil, gas, or minerals found on, within, or under the conveyed property, the State would receive one-half of the gross revenue generated from the development of the minerals.
