MI HB6272

Adds installation, replacement, or repair of whole-home generators for medical equipment charging to the list of normal maintenance repairs excluded from property tax assessment increases for residential property.

Changes mandatory language ("shall") to permissive language ("must") throughout sections 27 and 34d of the General Property Tax Act for consistency with modern drafting standards.

Updates references to the "Department of Environmental Quality" to "Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy" to reflect organizational changes.

Clarifies that whole-home generators installed for medical purposes are treated the same as alternative energy systems (like solar panels) in not triggering assessment increases, provided they serve medical equipment needs of home occupants.

Bill is contingent on enactment of House Bill 6271 or Senate Bill number to be determined, indicating the two bills are tied together as companion legislation.
