EMERGENCY SERVICE ENABLING ACT:
DELAY SUNSET
House Bill 5892
Sponsor: Rep. John Espinoza
Committee: Appropriations
Complete to11-12-08
A SUMMARY OF HOUSEBILL 5892 AS INTRODUCED3-13-08
The bill would push back the sunset provision in the Emergency 911 Service Enabling Act, 1986 PA 32, fromFebruary 28, 2009 toDecember 31, 2013. The act establishes the mechanics and funding source for 911 service in the state.
MCL 484.1717
FISCAL IMPACT:
Extending the sunset provision would increase revenue and expenditures for the Department of Treasury, relative to funding 911 service in the state. Under the act, the state imposes a $0.19 surcharge on telephone service (landlines, cellular, voice over Internet protocol, and pre-paid cellular service). The state 911 charge is distributed as follows:
· $0.1536 to counties on an equal basis
· $0.0922 to counties on a per-capita basis
· $0.0144 to local exchange carriers
· $0.0070 to the Department of State Police
· $0.0112 to public safety answering points
· $0.0038 is retained by service providers
For FY 2008-09, the Department of Treasury Budget (2008 PA 261, HB 5816) appropriates $11.1 million for "commercial mobile radio service payments". The amount is for a partial year, because of the sunset provision. On a full-year basis, the revenue generated from the State 911 charge would generate approximately $22.2 million, which would expended upon appropriation. The total appropriation, on a full year basis, would be distributed as follows:
· Counties (Equally): $7,326,000
· Counties (Per Capita): $10,989,000
· Exchange Carriers: $1,720,500
· Department of State Police: $832,500
· Public Safety Answering Points: $1,332,000
Additionally, extending the sunset would permit counties to continue to assess a county 911 charge, separate from the State 911 charge. On a full-year basis the county charges would generate an estimated $58.3 million, as shown in the chart below.
