PROVISIONS CONCERNING APPROPRIATIONS

 

GENERAL SECTIONS

 

     Sec. 201. In accordance with the provisions of section 30 of

 

article IX of the state constitution of 1963, total state spending

 

from state resources in this appropriation act for the fiscal year

 

ending September 30, 2010 is $0 and state appropriations paid to

 

local units of government are $0.

 

     Sec. 202. The appropriations made and expenditures authorized

 

under this act and the departments, commissions, boards, offices,

 

and programs for which appropriations are made under this act are

 

subject to the management and budget act, 1984 PA 431, MCL 18.1101

 

to 18.1594.

 

     Sec. 211. The appropriation in part 1 to the racing

 

commissioner is intended to provide 46 additional horse racing

 

dates. From the amount appropriated in part 1 to the office of

 

racing commissioner, the Michigan gaming control board shall

 

provide all regulatory functions necessary for the conduct of pari-

 

mutuel horse racing as provided in Michigan law, including the

 

reimbursement of all Michigan department of agriculture laboratory

 

testing fees.

 

     Sec. 212. The Michigan gaming control board, in conjunction

 

with the Michigan department of agriculture and each certified

 

horsemen's organization, shall report to the legislature on the

 


status and ongoing efforts to transfer the function of the office

 

of racing commissioner to the Michigan gaming control board

 

pursuant to Executive Order No. 2009-45. The report shall be

 

submitted on or before September 1, 2010 to the house and senate

 

appropriations subcommittees on agriculture and general government

 

and the house and senate fiscal agencies. The report shall include,

 

at a minimum, the following:

 

     (a) Efforts to reform, streamline, and utilize the most

 

efficient and effective methods of regulating and promoting the

 

horse racing industry.

 

     (b) Efforts to promote and support the horse racing industry

 

with the goal of increasing employment and expanded economic

 

activity associated with the horse racing industry.

 

     (c) A comparison of Michigan with other states regarding both

certified horsemen's organization, the house and senate

 

appropriations subcommittees on agriculture and general government,

 

and the house and senate fiscal agencies. The Michigan gaming

 

control board shall not charge more than the actual cost of

 

conducting race dates. In determining actual costs of racing dates,

 

the Michigan gaming control board shall take into account the

 

regulatory requirements specific to each type and breed of horse

 

racing.

 

     (2) If a certified horsemen's organization has paid for

 


additional race dates, and it is subsequently determined that

 

payment was greater than the actual cost, the Michigan gaming

 

control board shall refund to the certified horsemen's organization

 

the difference between the amount of payment and the actual cost.
