Introduced
by
To require the state Attorney General, the board of the Michigan Strategic Fund, the Governor’s office, the Auditor General office and designees appointed by legislative leaders to collaborate on an ongoing study of “interlocal agreements,” which formalize a joint exercise of power, privilege or authority between two or more government entities or public authorities. The bill would require an updated report to be posted online every two years detailing whether the parties to these “ILAs” are following the law, and if the entities created by an ILA are granting themselves additional powers after entering the ILA.. There are almost 1,000 <a href="http://www.mackinac.org/depts/policy/ilagreement.aspx?municipality=All+Municipalities&county=All+Counties">such agreements</a> between Michigan government entities.
Referred to the Committee on Local, Intergovernmental, and Regional Affairs
