(2) The state tax commission shall develop and implement an audit program to determine whether an assessing district is in substantial compliance with the requirements in subsection (1). If, after December 31, 2021, the state tax commission determines that an assessing district is not in substantial compliance with the requirements in subsection (1), the state tax commission may initiate the process described in subsection (3) to ensure that the assessing district achieves and maintains substantial compliance with those requirements.

(3) The state tax commission shall develop and implement a process to ensure that all assessing districts in the state achieve and maintain substantial compliance with the requirements in subsection (1). At a minimum, that process shall include all of the following actions and procedures:

(a) If the state tax commission determines that an assessing district is not in substantial compliance with the requirements in subsection (1) and elects to initiate the process described in this subsection, the commission shall provide the assessing district with a notice of noncompliance setting forth the reasons the assessing district is not in substantial compliance with the requirements in subsection (1) and requesting that the assessing district develop a corrective action plan approved by its governing body to address those deficiencies. Except as otherwise provided in subdivision (g), an assessing district shall file a corrective action plan requested under this subdivision with the state tax commission within 60 days after receipt of the notice of noncompliance. The state tax commission shall approve a corrective action plan filed under this subdivision or request changes to the plan within 60 days after filing.

(b) No earlier than May 1 and no later than September 1 of the calendar year immediately following the year of the notice described in subdivision (a), or, in the case of a corrective action plan approved by the state tax commission that extends beyond 1 year, no earlier than May 1 and no later than September 1 of the calendar year that is the second calendar year following the year of the notice described in subdivision (a), the state tax commission shall conduct an initial follow-up review with the assessing district and, within 90 days following that review, provide the district with an evaluation of its progress in implementing its corrective action plan and a notice of substantial compliance or noncompliance with the requirements in subsection (1).

(c) Except as otherwise provided in subdivisions (g) and (i), an assessing district that has received a notice of noncompliance as part of an initial follow-up review under subdivision (b) shall elect to either contract with the designated assessor for the county to serve as the district’s assessor of record or amend its corrective action plan with the approval of the state tax commission to provide that the assessing district will employ or contract with a new assessor of record, who shall be an advanced assessing officer or a master assessing officer, to achieve and maintain substantial compliance with the requirements in subsection (1).

(d) If an assessing district amends its corrective action plan pursuant to subdivision (c), no earlier than May 1 and no later than September 1 of the following calendar year, the state tax commission shall conduct a second follow-up review with the assessing district and, within 90 days following that review, provide the district with an evaluation of its progress in implementing its corrective action plan and a notice of substantial compliance or noncompliance with the requirements in subsection (1).

(e) If the state tax commission, pursuant to subdivision (b) or (d), provides an assessing district a notice of substantial compliance with the requirements in subsection (1), no further follow-up reviews are required under this subsection.

(f) Except as otherwise provided in subdivision (g), if the state tax commission provides an assessing district a notice of noncompliance pursuant to a second follow-up review under subdivision (d) or notifies an assessing district that it has fallen out of substantial compliance less than 5 calendar years after the calendar year a notice of substantial compliance was issued under this subsection, the state tax commission may require the assessing district to contract with the designated assessor for the county to serve as the district’s assessor of record. If the state tax commission notifies an assessing district that it has fallen out of substantial compliance with the requirements in subsection (1) more than 4 calendar years after the calendar year a notice of substantial compliance was issued, that notice of noncompliance shall be treated as an initial determination of noncompliance under this subsection.

(g) Within 30 days after receiving a notice of noncompliance under subdivisions (a), (b), (d), or (f), an assessing district may file a written petition with the state tax commission challenging the determination. The state tax commission shall arbitrate the dispute based on the documented facts supporting the notice of noncompliance and the information contained in the written petition and may request additional information as needed from the assessing district. If a petition is properly filed under this subdivision, the requirements applicable to an assessing district under subdivisions (a), (c), and (f) do not apply until the state tax commission notifies the assessing district of the results of the arbitration. With respect to the corrective action plan filing requirement in subdivision (a), the 60-day window for filing the plan will run from the date of this notice.

(h) Unless earlier times are agreed to by the state tax commission and the designated assessor, an assessing district that is under contract with a designated assessor under this subsection may petition the state tax commission no sooner than 3 years after commencement of the contract to end its contract with the designated assessor and may subsequently terminate the contract, subject to state tax commission approval, no sooner than 5 years after commencement of the contract. The state tax commission shall approve termination of a contract under this subdivision if it determines that the assessing district can achieve and maintain substantial compliance with the requirements in subsection (1) using a different assessor of record.

(i) Notwithstanding any other provision of this subsection, the state tax commission may immediately require an assessing district to contract with the designated assessor for the county to serve as the district’s assessor of record if after the expiration of 90 days following a second notice of noncompliance under subdivision (b) or the issuance of a notice of arbitration results under subdivision (g), whichever is later, the assessing district has not either contracted with the designated assessor for the county or employed or contracted with a new assessor of record pursuant to subdivision (c) or if both of the following apply:

( i ) The assessing district has failed to file an acceptable corrective action plan with the state tax commission under subdivision (a) within 180 days following an initial notice of noncompliance under subdivision (a) or has failed to make a good-faith effort to implement a corrective action plan approved by the state tax commission under subdivision (a) within 240 days following an initial notice of noncompliance under subdivision (a).

( ii ) The failure is likely to result in assumption of the assessing district’s assessment roll.

(j) A designated assessor may charge an assessing district that is required to contract with the designated assessor under this subsection, and that assessing district shall pay, for the reasonable costs incurred by the designated assessor in serving as the assessing district’s assessor of record, including, but not limited to, the costs of overseeing and administering the annual assessment, preparing and defending the assessment roll, and operating the assessing office. The state tax commission shall develop guidelines, which, at a minimum, shall provide a means for the ability of an assessing district to protest a charge to the state tax commission and the ability of a means for the state tax commission to resolve disputes between the designated assessor and the assessing district regarding costs and charges.

(k) A designated assessor is a local assessing unit for purposes of the provisions in section 44 concerning the division and use of any collected property tax administration fees.

(4) Beginning December 31, 2020, every county shall have a designated assessor on file with the state tax commission, subject to all of the following:

The interlocal agreement must be executed by the board of commissioners for that county, a majority of the assessing districts in that county, and the individual put forth as the proposed designated assessor. For purposes of this subdivision and subsection (5)(d), an assessing district is considered to be in the county where all of, or in the case of an assessing district that has state equalized value in multiple counties, the largest share of, that assessing district’s state equalized value is located.

(b) Except as otherwise provided in subdivision (d), if the state tax commission determines that an individual named in a petition submitted under subdivision (a) is capable of ensuring that contracting assessing districts achieve and maintain substantial compliance with the requirements in subsection (1), it shall approve the petition.

(c) Except as otherwise provided in subdivision (d), if the state tax commission determines that an individual named in a petition submitted under subdivision (a) is not capable of ensuring that contracting assessing districts achieve and maintain substantial compliance with the requirements in subsection (1), it shall reject the petition and request the submission of additional interlocal agreements under subdivision (a) until a suitable assessor has been presented.

(d) Except as otherwise provided in subdivision (e), an approved designated assessor designation shall not be revoked and no new designation shall be made under subdivision (a) earlier than 5 years following the date of the approved designation.

(e) The state tax commission may designate and approve, on an interim basis and pursuant to a formal agreement, an individual to serve as a county’s designated assessor and, if applicable, revoke the approved designation of the current designated assessor under the following circumstances and subject to the following time limit:

( i ) If the designated assessor dies or becomes incapacitated.

( ii ) If the designated assessor was designated and approved based on his or her employment status and that status materially changes.

( iii ) If it determines at any time that the designated assessor is not capable of ensuring that contracting assessing districts achieve and maintain substantial compliance with the requirements in subsection (1).

( iv ) If, as of December 31, 2020, it has not been provided an interlocal agreement, executed as provided in subdivision (a), that presents a suitable individual to serve as the county’s designated assessor.

( v ) An approved designation under this subdivision is effective only until a new assessor has been designated and approved under subdivisions (a) to (c).

(5) As used in this section:

(a) “Advanced assessing officer” means an individual certified by the state tax commission pursuant to section 10d as a Michigan Advanced Assessing Officer(3) or, if the state tax commission changes its certification designations, an individual certified by the state tax commission to perform functions equivalent in scope, as determined by the state tax commission, to those that previously could have been performed by a Michigan Advanced Assessing Officer(3).

(b) “Assessing district” means a city, township, or joint assessing authority. Assessing district includes a qualified city that administers a land value tax under the land tax equity act.

(c) “Corrective action plan” means a plan developed by an assessing district that specifically indicates how the assessing district will achieve substantial compliance with the requirements in subsection (1) and when substantial compliance will be achieved.

(d) “Designated assessor” means an individual designated and approved, as provided in subsection (4), to serve a county as the assessor of record for the assessing districts in that county that are required to contract with a designated assessor pursuant to the process specified in subsection (3).

(e) “Master assessing officer” means an individual certified by the state tax commission pursuant to section 10d as a Michigan Master Assessing Officer(4) or, if the state tax commission changes its certification designations, an individual certified by the state tax commission to perform functions equivalent in scope, as determined by the state tax commission, to those that previously could have been performed by a Michigan Master Assessing Officer(4).

(f) “Noncompliance” means that the identified deficiencies, taken together, pose a significant risk that the assessing district is unable to perform the assessing function in conformity with the state constitution and state statute. It is the opposite of substantial compliance and shall be determined based on a holistic evaluation of compliance with the requirements in subsection (1), taking into account the anticipated overall impact of the deficiencies on the assessing district’s ability to perform the assessment function. A finding of noncompliance shall not be based on isolated technical deficiencies.

(g) “Qualified city” means that term as defined in section 2 of the land tax equity act.

(h) (g) “Substantial compliance” means that any identified deficiencies do not pose a significant risk that the assessing district is unable to perform the assessment function in conformity with the state constitution and state statute. It is the opposite of noncompliance.

(6) Not later than 2 years after the effective date of the amendatory act that added this section, December 28, 2020, the state tax commission shall adopt and publish guidelines to implement this section. The guidelines shall include, at a minimum, minimum standards and model policies to be followed for substantial compliance with the requirements of subsection (1) and shall identify those deficiencies that may lead to a finding of noncompliance and those deficiencies that are technical. The state tax commission may update the guidelines as needed to implement this section.”.

evidence_text:
Rep. Witwer moved to substitute (H-1) the resolution as follows:

Substitute for House Resolution No. 145.

A resolution to declare October 9, 2023, as Indigenous Peoples’ Day in the state of Michigan.

Whereas, The state of Michigan understands that in order to help close the equity gap, government entities should change their policies and practices to better reflect and uplift the experiences, culture, history, and contributions of the people they serve; and

Whereas, The state of Michigan recognizes that Columbus Day has been viewed by many as a celebration of our country’s rich immigrant and, in particular, Italian and Catholic heritage; and

Whereas, Recognizing the valuable contributions of immigrants to our history is important, it should not come at the expense of recognizing the experiences of the indigenous people of the American continent; and

Whereas, Michigan honors the twelve federally recognized tribes and many more tribally recognized tribes native to this land and acknowledges the people, land, traditions, and customs stolen by colonial systems through government practices of forced separation, forced assimilation, and forced removal; and

Whereas, The idea of Indigenous Peoples’ Day was first proposed in 1977 by a delegation of Native Nations to the United Nations-sponsored International Conference on Discrimination Against Indigenous Populations in the Americas; and

Whereas, In 1990, representatives from 120 Indigenous Nations at the First Continental Conference on 500 Years of Indian Resistance unanimously passed a resolution to transform Columbus Day into an opportunity to reveal historical truths about pre-existing indigenous cultures that have survived a violent colonization process and continue to exist and thrive in present day America; and

Whereas, The United States endorsed the United Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples on December 16, 2010, and Article 15 of that declaration states “Indigenous peoples have the right to the dignity and diversity of their cultures, traditions, histories, and aspirations, which shall be appropriately reflected in education and public information. States should take effective measures, in consultation and cooperation with the Indigenous peoples concerned, to combat prejudice and eliminate discrimination and to promote tolerance, understanding, and good relations among Indigenous peoples and all other segments of society”; and

Whereas, The state of Michigan recognizes the presence of the three major groups in our state today, the Three Fires Confederacy, the Ojibwe, Odawa, and Potawatomi, collectively known as the Anishinaabe who have lived upon this land since time immemorial, and values the progress our society has accomplished through Native American thought and culture; and

Whereas, The establishment of Indigenous Peoples’ Day shall be used to reflect upon the ongoing struggles of indigenous peoples on this land and to celebrate the thriving cultures and values that the Anishinaabe of the Great Lakes and other indigenous peoples contribute to society; and

Whereas, Many of our indigenous relatives and Tribal Nations in Michigan have contributed much to our state’s success, history, economy, politics, and cultural heritage, and there are many things to be proud of as an indigenous person in Michigan; and

Whereas, Even the name Michigan is derived from the Anishinaabemowin word michigami meaning “great lake” and there are many other examples of how the Anishinaabe of the Great Lakes have helped shape who we are as the state of Michigan, and

Whereas, The states of Alaska and Michigan, the cities of Seattle, Washington, Berkeley, California, Minneapolis, Minnesota, and many more cities around the country including Traverse City, Ann Arbor, East Lansing, and Alpena in Michigan have voted to rename Columbus Day as Indigenous Peoples’ Day to honor the culture, heritage, and contributions of Native Americans; and

Whereas, On this second Monday of October, we should honor the historic, cultural, and contemporary significance of indigenous peoples and their ancestral lands that also became known as the Americas and celebrate their contributions to communities throughout Michigan, the United States, and all over the world; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body declare October 9, 2023, as Indigenous Peoples’ Day in the state of Michigan. We recognize this day to uplift our country’s indigenous roots, history, and contributions; and be it further

Resolved, That Indigenous Peoples’ Day shall be used to reflect upon the ongoing struggles of indigenous people on this land and to celebrate the thriving culture and value that Odawa, Ojibwe, Potawatomi, and other indigenous peoples add to communities throughout Michigan and our Great Lakes region.

The motion prevailed and the substitute (H-1) was adopted, a majority of the members serving voting therefor.
