Drain code and drainage districts

Current understanding

Michigan’s Drain Code (1956 PA 40) governs how drainage districts finance and carry out drain construction, maintenance, and improvement projects, including how costs are apportioned and how project debt is issued. Legislative activity here typically adjusts financing mechanics — interest rates, bonding, and assessments — for drain projects administered by county drain commissioners.
