  • Establishes a local community stabilization share tax beginning October 1, 2015, that redirects a portion of Michigan's 6% use tax to a Local Community Stabilization Authority for local purposes including police, fire, and ambulance services.

  • Creates escalating revenue targets for the local community stabilization share, starting at $96.1 million in fiscal year 2015-2016 and increasing to $572.6 million by fiscal year 2027-2028, with subsequent years adjusted by a 1.0% personal property growth factor.

  • Reduces the state share of use tax revenue correspondingly while maintaining the total combined rate at 6% and increasing the portion of state use tax dedicated to school aid to offset losses from personal property tax exemptions.

  • Designates the Department of Treasury to administer collection of the local community stabilization share on behalf of the authority, with revenues treated as local authority funds rather than state funds.
