Overview

The Michigan Capital Outlay process encompasses the budgetary and administrative functions devoted to financing and planning for the acquisition, construction/renovation, and maintenance of facilities used by a state agency, public university, or community college.  General operational practices and procedures are contained in the Management and Budget Act (1984 PA 431), the State Building Authority Act (1964 PA 183), the annual Capital Outlay Appropriations Act, and the formal policies of the Legislative Joint Capital Outlay Subcommittee.  Act 431 contains numerous oversight and approval action steps that define the respective roles of the Executive and Legislative Branches.

The State Building Authority (SBA) finances most major state-owned facility renovations and new construction projects through issuance of revenue bonds.  Debt service on these bonds is annually appropriated as "rent" because it is based on the respective individual facility’s economic or market value.  The SBA has a statutory bonded indebtedness ceiling, currently set at $2.7 billion.

Major Budget Issues

·                     Authorizes 3 State Building Authority construction and 19 planning projects committing about $364.3 million of SBA bond proceeds.  This includes $100 million for a new Regional Economic Development Initiative

·                     Provides $13.2 million from Transportation funds for a newDetroit transportation campus facility

·                     Provides $14.9 million (Waterways Fund) for harbor, marina and boating access projects

·                     Eliminates $4 million General Fund grant to the Detroit Zoological Society

·                     Provides an additional $12.2 million federal for airport safety and improvement projects
