A bill to amend 1987 PA 264, entitled “Health and safety fund act,” by amending section 5 (MCL 141.475), as amended by 2009 PA 60.
The bill mandates the state treasurer to distribute $16 million annually from the health and safety fund. The distribution prioritizes counties with outstanding obligations or loans under the Emergency Municipal Loan Act and the Fiscal Stabilization Act. If obligations are met, remaining funds are allocated based on county population. Additionally, specific provisions address the transfer of funds to the Convention Facility Development Fund if a qualified convention facility is transferred or leased to a metropolitan authority. The bill also specifies that $1 million must be distributed for public health prevention programs and services, and the remaining funds must be used for county jail or juvenile facility operations, maintenance, expansion, or court operations.
