9 and (10).
10 (h) For the 2005-2006 state fiscal year, the payment under
11 this section for each city, village, and township shall be the
12 sum of the following:
13 (i) Twenty percent of the total amount available for
14 distribution under subsections (8), (9), and (10) for the
15 2005-2006 state fiscal year multiplied by the city's, village's,
16 or township's percentage share of the distributions under this
17 section and section 12a minus the amount of a distribution under
18 this section and section 12a to a city that is eligible to

27 2007, the payment under this section for each city, village, and
1 township shall be the sum of the following:
2 (i) Ten percent of the total amount available for

15 (12) Except as otherwise provided in this subsection, the
16 total payment to any city, village, or township under this act
17 and section 10 of article IX of the state constitution of 1963
18 shall not increase by more than 8% over the amount of the payment
19 under this act and section 10 of article IX of the state
20 constitution of 1963 in the immediately preceding state fiscal
21 year. From the amount not distributed because of the limitation
22 imposed by this subsection, the department shall distribute an
23 amount to certain cities, villages, and townships such that the
24 percentage increase in the total payment under this act and
25 section 10 of article IX of the state constitution of 1963 from
26 the immediately preceding state fiscal year to each of those
27 cities, villages, and townships is equal to, but does not exceed,
1 the percentage increase from the immediately preceding state
2 fiscal year of any city, village, or township that does not
3 receive a distribution under this subsection. This subsection
4 does not apply for state fiscal years after the 2000 federal
5 decennial census becomes official to a city, village, or township
6 with a 10% or more increase in population from the official 1990
7 federal decennial census to the official 2000 federal decennial
8 census.
9 (13) The percentage allocations to distributions under
10 subsections (8) to (10) pursuant to subsection (11) shall be
11 calculated as if, in any state fiscal year, the amount
12 appropriated under this section for distribution to cities,
13 villages, and townships is 74.94% of 21.3% of the sales tax at a
14 rate of 4%. If the amount appropriated under this section to
15 cities, villages, and townships is less than 74.94% of 21.3% of
16 the sales tax at a rate of 4%, any reduction made necessary by
17 this appropriation in distributions to cities, villages, and
18 townships shall first be applied to the distribution under
19 subsections (8) to (10) and any remaining amount shall be applied
20 to the other distributions under this section.
21 (14) A township that provides for or makes available fire,
22 police on a 24-hour basis either through contracting for or
23 directly employing personnel, water to 50% or more of its
24 residents, and sewer services to 50% or more of its residents and
25 has a population of 10,000 or more or a township that has a
26 population of 20,000 or more shall use the unit type population
27 weight factor under subsection (9)(a) for a city with the same
1 population as the township.
2 (15) For a state fiscal year in which the sales tax
3 collections decrease from the sales tax collections for the
4 immediately preceding state fiscal year, the department shall
5 reduce the amount to be distributed to a city with a population
6 of 750,000 or more under subsection (6) by an amount determined
7 by subtracting the amount the city is eligible for under section
8 10 of article IX of the state constitution of 1963 for the state
9 fiscal year from $333,900,000.00 and multiplying that result by
10 the same percentage as the percentage decrease in sales tax
11 collections for that state fiscal year as compared to sales tax
12 collections for the immediately preceding state fiscal year.
13 This subsection does not apply to the 2002-2003 and 2003-2004
14 state fiscal year years.
15 (16) Notwithstanding any other provision of this section for
16 the 1998-1999 state fiscal year, the total combined amount
17 received by each city, village, and township under this section
18 and section 10 of article IX of the state constitution of 1963
19 shall not be less than the combined amount received under this
20 section, section 12a, and section 10 of article IX of the state
21 constitution of 1963 in the 1997-1998 state fiscal year. The
22 increase, if any, for each city, village, and township from the
23 1997-1998 state fiscal year, other than a city that receives a
24 distribution under subsection (6), shall be reduced by a uniform
25 percentage to the extent necessary to fund distributions under
26 this subsection.
27 (17) The payments under subsections (3), (4), and (5) shall
1 be made during each October, December, February, April, June, and
2 August. Payments under subsections (3), (4), and (5) shall be
3 based on collections from the sales tax at the rate of 4% in the
4 2-month period ending the prior August 31, October 31, December
5 31, February 28, April 30, and June 30, and for the 1996-1997 and
6 1997-1998 state fiscal years only, the payments shall be reduced
7 by 1/6 of the total distribution for the state fiscal year under
8 section 12a.
9 (18) Payments under this section shall be made from revenues
10 collected during the state fiscal year in which the payments are
11 made.
12 (19) Distributions provided for by this act are subject to an
13 annual appropriation by the legislature.
