As used in this subsection, "inflation rate" means that term as defined in section 34d of the general property tax act, 1893 PA 206, MCL 211.34d.

141.913a. Census delay adjustment payments; eligibility of city, village, or township; calculation; reservation of additional sum; appropriation; reduction of amounts reserved. Sec. 13a. (1) Following the official certification and publication of the 1980 federal decennial census, the department of management and budget shall calculate for each city, village, and township: (a) The payment of revenues a city, village, or township would have received under sections 12 and 13 between April 1, 1980 and October 1, 1980 if those payments had been distributed according to the 1980 census. (b) The difference in payments determined by subtracting the payment of revenues which were made to a city, village, or township between April 1, 1980 and October 1, 1980 under sections 12, 13, and 14a from the calculation made for the city, village, or township in subdivision (a). (c) The sum of all the differences in payments determined by subdivision (b) that are greater than zero. This sum shall be known as "the census delay adjustment". (2) A city, village, or township which has a population according to the 1980 census greater than the population used in computing the August, 1979 distributions to the city, village, or township under this act shall be eligible for census delay adjustment payments. The department of management and budget shall calculate the census delay adjustment payment to be made to each eligible city, village, or township pursuant to the following: (a) Dividing the census delay adjustment determined in subsection (1)(c) by 4. (b) Subtracting the population used in computing the August, 1979 distributions under this act for each eligible city, village, and township from the population according to the 1980 census of each eligible city, village, or township. The differences obtained shall be known as "the growth population". (c) Summing the differences obtained in subdivision (b). (d) Dividing the quotient determined in subdivision (a) by the sum determined in subdivision (c). The per capita amount determined pursuant to this calculation shall be distributed in May, 1982; May, 1983; May, 1984; and May, 1985 to each eligible city, village, and township according to its growth population. (3) The additional sum necessary to provide the distribution required by this section shall be reserved, in amounts determined pursuant to section 13(a), from the collection of state income tax available for distribution to cities, villages, and townships before payments are made under section 13. (4) All or part of the census delay adjustment payments required in any or all payment years may be appropriated by the legislature from the state general fund and, if such an appropriation is made, the reserve provided in subsection (3), and the amounts reserved pursuant to section 13(a) from distribution in each payment period for the year shall be reduced by the amount of the general fund appropriation.

(2) A payment required to be made pursuant to section 11, 12, or 13 shall not be delayed so as to cause interest to accrue pursuant to subsection (1) unless the delay in any payment is authorized by a written directive issued and signed by the governor to the director of the department of management and budget and the state treasurer, containing an identification of the specific payment and amount of the payment to be delayed, the period of the delay, the reason for the delay, and the date the delayed payment is expected to be paid. (3) The governor's authorization under subsection (2) shall be signed and issued as soon as the governor determines that the payment will be delayed, which determination shall be made as far in advance of the scheduled payment date as is reasonably possible under the circumstances. The state treasurer immediately shall take such steps as are reasonably necessary to assure that the local units for which a directive applies are notified of that gubernatorial directive. (4) Amounts required to be paid pursuant to section 11, 12, or 13 that are subject to an unavoidable delay of a de minimis period, or that are withheld or set off pursuant to law in the settlement or adjustment or an obligation or debt due to this state, or that are withheld from payment pursuant to section 17a or 21, shall not be subject to subsections (1) to (3).

Sec. 18. (1) Each city, village, or township shall report its local taxes and special assessments and cities and townships shall report their overlapping taxes to the department of treasury by March 1. A city, village, or township that levied less than 1 mill in the immediately preceding calendar year, when it reports its local taxes, shall also report whether its levied millage rate would have been at least 1 mill except for the millage reductions pursuant to section 31 of article IX of the state constitution of 1963; except for a millage reduction pursuant to section 34 of the general property tax act, Act No. 206 of the Public Acts of 1893, being section 211.34 of the Michigan Compiled Laws; or except for the fact that the city, village, or township did not elect to increase the millage rate permitted by operation of section 24e(2) of Act No. 206 of the Public Acts of 1893, being section 211.24e of the Michigan Compiled Laws, or for any combination of these exceptions. If a city, village, or township fails to report as provided in this section, the department of treasury shall give notice of the failure to the assessor and the chief executive officer of the city, village, or township.

In determining and reporting the overlapping taxes for a township and the villages within the township, the department of treasury shall prorate and allocate the overlapping taxes levied in the township to the township and each village in the same ratio that the taxable value of the unincorporated area of the township and of each village bears to the total taxable value of the township.

(b) Determining whether the city, village, or township is eligible under section 14 for payments based upon the tax burden formula, which formula shall be calculated using the actual local property taxes. (c) Determining whether the city, village, or township is eligible under section 14a for payments based upon the special census formula, which formula shall be calculated using the actual local property taxes. 1971, Act 140, Imd.

Upon request of a local unit of government the department of treasury may assist that local unit in the formulation of the financial plan to correct the deficit condition. The local unit of government shall file the financial plan with the department of treasury for evaluation and certification that the plan ensures that the deficit condition is corrected. Upon certification by the department of treasury, the local unit of government shall institute the plan.
