Introduced
by
To revise procedures for the annexation and detachment of territory between a city, village and township. The bill is part of a legislative package comprised of Senate Bills 1078 to 1083 that establish detailed rules, timetables and procedures for annexing township property to a village or city, or detaching village or city property to a township, including a referendum under certain circumstances, and separate rules for territory with less than 100 residents. Among other things these would require good-faith negotiation on tax sharing, land use planning, services, etc. For details see <a href="http://www.legislature.mi.gov/documents/2007-2008/billanalysis/Senate/htm/2007-SFA-1078-A.htm">Senate Fiscal Agency analysis</a>.
