MI HB4084

Restricts brownfield authorities from using school operating tax revenues for eligible activities unless activities comply with Part 201 of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act and work plan is approved by the department before January 1, 2013.

Exempts certain baseline environmental assessment activities and due care compliance planning from requiring department work plan approval, allowing authorities to use school operating taxes for these specific activities without approval.

Establishes 60-day review period for department to approve, conditionally approve, or deny work plans; activities are deemed approved if department fails to respond within 60 days.

Requires business entities receiving tax increment revenues to submit written certifications that they will not knowingly hire unauthorized workers and will hire Michigan residents for eligible activities, with exceptions for federal compliance and specialized personnel.

Mandates authorities report annually to the Michigan Strategic Fund on employment created, including number of Michigan residents hired and reasons for any exemptions from Michigan resident hiring requirements.
