Housing: landlord and tenants; certain relocation assistance for tenants in hazardous or dangerous buildings; provide for. Amends 1917 PA 167 (MCL 125.401 - 125.543) by adding sec. 130a.
This bill amends Michigan's housing law to require landlords and building owners to provide relocation assistance to tenants living in hazardous or dangerous structures. The measure mandates that if an enforcing agency determines unsafe conditions exist due to a landlord's poor maintenance and orders the property vacated or demolished, the responsible party must pay the tenant three months of current rent. This financial aid must be issued within seven business days of the order and applies regardless of whether the tenant is up to date on rent payments. The provision ensures that this assistance is in addition to any other legal remedies available under existing housing laws.
