Housing and Community Development Fund

Current understanding

Michigan HB 4539 (103rd Legislature) would amend secs. 58 and 58b of the State Housing Development Authority Act (1966 PA 346, MCL 125.1458 & 125.1458b) to modify provisions governing the Housing and Community Development Fund, which supports affordable housing and community development activities administered by MSHDA. The bill is tie-barred to HB 4540, meaning neither takes effect unless both are enacted. Specific changes to fund sources, permitted uses, or allocation formulas remain to be captured; the measure is at the passed-chamber step.
