Michigan Senate Bill 478 (SB0478) authorizes the state administrative board to transfer certain state-owned property in Livingston County from the Department of Corrections to the Department of Military and Veterans Affairs. This transfer is permanent and effective upon approval by the state administrative board and notification by the Department of Technology, Management, and Budget. The Department of Military and Veterans Affairs will assume full administrative jurisdiction and responsibility for the property after the transfer. All necessary documents for the transfer must be approved by the Attorney General's office. The Department of Technology, Management, and Budget will coordinate and implement the transfer, with the Department of Military and Veterans Affairs reimbursing it for any incurred costs, such as survey and recording fees. The property includes all improvements made on the land and any surplus, salvage, or scrap property or equipment remaining on the property at the time of the transfer.
