Economic development: brownfield redevelopment authority; HOPE zone exemption; provide for. Amends sec. 13c of 1996 PA 381 (MCL 125.2663c). TIE BAR WITH: HB 5852'26

This bill updates Michigan's Brownfield Redevelopment Financing Act to create a new process for "transformational brownfield plans" that can include multiple related projects across different properties. It requires these plans to provide detailed financial estimates and outlines how various tax capture revenues, such as sales and income taxes, must be used exclusively to fund eligible redevelopment costs. The legislation also mandates specific approval steps involving the local governing body and the Michigan Strategic Fund, ensuring that tax revenues are legally binding and only collected until the project's costs are fully covered.
