Local government: other; Michigan zoning enabling act; make subject to the data center planning and responsibility act. Amends sec. 205 of 2006 PA 110 (MCL 125.3205). TIE BAR WITH: HB 5882'26
This bill amends Michigan's zoning enabling act to require local zoning ordinances to comply with the data center planning and responsibility act. It also clarifies rules for mining operations by setting conditions under which local governments can restrict extraction based on potential serious consequences, while allowing reasonable regulations on noise, traffic, and blasting hours. Additionally, the bill protects renewable energy projects that received special land use approval after January 1, 2021, from having their approvals revoked or modified once substantial construction or specific expenditures have occurred. The legislation will only take effect if it is passed together with a companion bill, HB 5882.
