Bill overview
This bill prevents local governments like counties, cities, and villages in Michigan from imposing a property tax cap that automatically reduces millage rates based on a fixed percentage. Currently, some local units can set limits on how much property tax revenue they can collect, but if these limits require a reduction in millage rates, the cap is invalid. The bill aims to ensure local governments retain more flexibility in setting their property tax rates. It clarifies what constitutes a ‘local property tax cap’ and excludes constitutional or state-mandated limitations.
