LAND BANK FAST TRACK ACT (EXCERPT)
Act 258 of 2003

124.764 Construction, intent, and scope of act.

Sec. 14.

(1) This act shall be construed liberally to effectuate the legislative intent and the purposes as complete and independent authorization for the performance of each and every act and thing authorized by this act, and all powers granted shall be broadly interpreted to effectuate the intent and purposes and not as a limitation of powers. In the exercise of its powers and duties under this act and its powers relating to property held by the authority, the authority shall have complete control as fully and completely as if it represented a private property owner and shall not be subject to restrictions imposed on the authority by the charter, ordinances, or resolutions of a local unit of government.

(2) Unless permitted by this act or approved by an authority, any restrictions, standards, conditions, or prerequisites of a city, village, township, or county otherwise applicable to an authority and enacted after the effective date of this act shall not apply to an authority. This subsection is intended to prohibit special local legislation or ordinances applicable exclusively or primarily to an authority and not to exempt an authority from laws generally applicable to other persons or entities.

(3) The provisions of this act apply notwithstanding any resolution, ordinance, or charter provision to the contrary. This section is not intended to exempt an authority from local zoning or land use controls, including, but not limited to, those controls authorized under the city and village zoning act, 1921 PA 207, MCL 125.581 to 125.600, the local historic districts act, 1970 PA 169, MCL 399.201 to 399.215, or 1945 PA 344, MCL 125.71 to 125.84.

(4) The transfer to an authority of tax reverted property, the title to which involuntarily vested in this state under section 67a of the general property tax act, 1893 PA 206, MCL 211.67a, in a foreclosing governmental unit under section 78m(7) of the general property tax act, 1893 PA 206, MCL 211.78m, or in a qualified city pursuant to procedures established under the charter or ordinances of the qualified city, shall be construed as an involuntary transfer of property to the authority. After a transfer described in this subsection, the authority shall be deemed to have assumed any governmental immunity or other legal defenses of this state, the foreclosing governmental unit, or the local unit of government related to the property and the manner in which title to the property was held by this state or the local unit of government.
