OVERVIEW The supplemental appropriation provides spending authority needed for federal transportation funds apportioned toMichigan under the "American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009," (ARRA). The bill recognizes only the ARRA transportation funds apportioned to the state through federal formula grants. The State Budget Office has indicated it will submit a separate request for ARRA transportation discretionary grant programs onceMichigan's grant awards are known. ARRA transportation funds may be used for 100% of project cost; there is no state or local match requirement. The House bill, passed onMarch 18, 2009, reflected the Executive request. The Senate passed the bill without changes onMarch 26, 2009. The Governor signed the bill into law onMarch 31, 2009. |

3. Nonurban Operating/Capital (ARRA) Appropriation represents additional federal transit funds available toMichigan public transit agencies in non-urbanized areas (census population less than 50,000) under the ARRA. These formula funds are distributed in accordance with Section 5311 of the Federal Transit Act. The line item name, Nonurban Operating/Capital, is consistent with current year budget descriptions. However, under provisions of the ARRA, the funds can only be used for capital acquisitions, such as bus replacement, not for operating expenses. [An additional $109.0 million in Urban formula grants (Section 5307 of the Federal Transit Act) is available toMichigan urban transit agencies under the ARRA. Since Section 5307 funds are granted directly to urban transit agencies, state appropriation is not required.] |
