A bill to amend 1987 PA 264, entitled
"Health and safety fund act,"
by amending section 5 (MCL 141.475), as amended by 2008 PA 586.
THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF MICHIGAN ENACT:
Sec. 5. The state treasurer shall cause to be distributed from
the
health and safety fund the following amounts in the 1988-89
1988-1989 fiscal year and in each fiscal year following the 1988-
1989 fiscal year:
(a) One-fourth of the collections deposited in the fund under
section 3(2) shall be used for indigent volume adjusters for
hospitals within the medicaid program.
(b) After the distribution in subdivision (a), $16,000,000.00
of the amount deposited in the fund under section 3(2) shall be
distributed as follows:
(i) Except as provided in subparagraph (iii), to a county that
received a loan authorized under section 3(2) or (3) of the
emergency municipal loan act, 1980 PA 243, MCL 141.933, to pay
outstanding obligations of the county; for the repayment of
principal and interest on any loans made to the county under the
emergency municipal loan act, 1980 PA 243, MCL 141.931 to 141.942;
and for the payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest due
during a fiscal year on bonds issued by that county under the
fiscal stabilization act, 1981 PA 80, MCL 141.1001 to 141.1011. The
distributions under this subparagraph shall be made as necessary
and only to the extent necessary to satisfy the obligations of the
county.
(ii) Except as provided in subparagraph (iii), to the extent that
$16,000,000.00 is no longer necessary to satisfy the obligations
under subparagraph (i), a portion of the amount not required for
satisfaction of obligations shall be distributed to each county
that receives or has received a loan authorized under section 3(2)
or (3) of the emergency municipal loan act, 1980 PA 243, MCL
141.933, in an amount determined by multiplying the amount
available for distribution under this subparagraph by a fraction,
the numerator of which is the population of the county receiving
the distribution and the denominator of which is the total
population of the state according to the most recent decennial
census. The distribution under this subparagraph shall be made at
the same times and shall be used, subject to section 6, for the
same purposes described in subdivision (c). The remaining amount
available for distribution under this subparagraph shall be used on
a per capita basis to offset the cost to the state of the
assumption of the financing of the state court system in the
counties not receiving a distribution under this subparagraph.
(iii) In the 2008-2009 fiscal year through the 2014-2015 fiscal
year, $16,000,000.00 of the amount deposited in the fund under
section 3(2) shall be transferred to and deposited in the
convention facility development fund created under the state
convention facility development act, 1985 PA 106, MCL 207.621 to
207.640, for distribution and use only in the manner and for the
purposes stated in that act and no amount shall be distributed
under subparagraph (i) or (ii). In the 2015-2016 fiscal year through
the 2038-2039 fiscal year, $15,000,000.00 of the amount deposited
in the fund under section 3(2) shall be transferred to and
deposited in the convention facility development fund created under
the state convention facility development act, 1985 PA 106, MCL
207.621
to 207.640, for distribution and use only exclusively in
the manner and for the purposes stated in that act and
$1,000,000.00 shall be distributed under subparagraphs (i) and (ii).
(c) The remaining amount deposited in the fund under section
3(2) not distributed under subdivisions (a) and (b) shall be
distributed to each county that does not receive and has never
received a loan authorized under section 3(2) or (3) of the
emergency municipal loan act, 1980 PA 243, MCL 141.933, on a per
capita basis according to the ratio that the population of the
county receiving the distribution under this subdivision, according
to the most recent decennial census, bears to the total population
of all counties receiving distribution under this subdivision,
according to the most recent decennial census. A distribution under
this subdivision shall be made each February, May, August, and
November from the collections that were deposited in the fund under
section 3(2) in the immediately preceding calendar quarter. Subject
to section 6, 12/17 of the distribution under this subdivision
shall be distributed to each local health department as defined in
section 1105 of the public health code, 1978 PA 368, MCL 333.1105,
in the county receiving the distribution on a per capita basis,
based on the most recent decennial census, to be used only for
public health prevention programs and services. This distribution
is in addition to and is not intended as a replacement for any
other state or county payments to these health departments. This
distribution satisfies the requirements of former section 7a(3) of
1947 PA 265. The remaining 5/17 of the distribution shall be used
only for 1 or more of the following:
(i) The operation, maintenance, or expansion of an existing
county jail facility or juvenile facility.
(ii) The acquisition, construction, and equipping of a new jail
facility or juvenile facility.
(iii) Court operations.
