Why this matters
HB 5805 is the administrative backbone of Michigan’s proposed Housing Opportunity Tax Credit package, giving MSHDA statutory authority to run the program that HB 5806 (income tax) and HB 5807 (insurance retaliatory tax) fund on the revenue side. For workers, employers, and taxpayers, the design of MSHDA’s allocation and compliance rules will determine which developers can access the credit and how much affordable-housing production the state ultimately subsidizes.
