Economic development: brownfield redevelopment authority; brownfield redevelopment financing act; amend to exempt museum authorities. Amends sec. 2 of 1996 PA 381 (MCL 125.2652). TIE BAR WITH: SB 1139'26, SB 1141'26
SB 1140 amends the Brownfield Redevelopment Financing Act to exempt museum authorities, specifically those created under the art institute and history museum acts, from having their property taxes captured by brownfield redevelopment plans. This change prevents local governments from diverting tax revenues that would otherwise go directly to these cultural institutions when nearby properties are redeveloped as brownfields. The bill takes effect only if companion bills SB 1139 and SB 1141 are also enacted, ensuring a coordinated update to the state's economic development financing framework.
