or subregional library shall not be released until a budget for
that regional or subregional library has been approved by the
department for expenditures for library services directly serving
the blind and persons with disabilities.
(2) In order to receive subregional state aid as appropriated
in part 1, a regional or subregional library's fiscal agency shall
agree to maintain local funding support at the same level in the
current fiscal year as in the fiscal agency's preceding fiscal
year. If a reduction in expenditures equally affects all agencies
in a local unit of government that is the regional or subregional
library's fiscal agency, that reduction shall not be interpreted as
a reduction in local support and shall not disqualify a regional or
subregional library from receiving state aid under part 1. If a
reduction in income affects a library cooperative or district
library that is a regional or subregional library's fiscal agency
or a reduction in expenditures for the regional or subregional
library's fiscal agency, a reduction in expenditures for the
regional or subregional library shall not be interpreted as a
reduction in local support and shall not disqualify a regional or
subregional library from receiving state aid under part 1.
Sec. 905. (1) Funds appropriated in part 1 for Michigan
indigent defense commission grants shall not be distributed to any
local indigent defense systems unless the total amount appropriated
for those grants from state resources in part 1, a subsequent
appropriations act for the current fiscal year, or both, are equal
to the total cost for all indigent defense systems to comply with
approved standards under the Michigan indigent defense commission
act, 2013 PA 93, MCL 780.981 to 780.1003.
(2) It is the intent of the legislature that local indigent
defense systems are not required to take any additional action to
comply with plans approved by the Michigan indigent defense
commission until the total cost is appropriated and grants are
distributed, as prescribed under section 17 of the Michigan
indigent defense commission act, 2013 PA 93, MCL 780.997. The
legislature further intends to comply with section 13(6) of the
Michigan indigent defense commission act, 2013 PA 93, MCL 780.993,
which provides that the legislature shall appropriate to the
Michigan indigent defense commission the additional funds necessary
to provide grants to indigent criminal defense systems to meet and
maintain minimum standards established by the commission.
(3) As used in this section, "total cost" means the sum total
of cost analyses for all indigent defense systems in this state
that were either approved by the Michigan indigent defense
commission or settled upon under the dispute resolution process
described in section 15 of the Michigan indigent defense commission
act, 2013 PA 93, MCL 780.995.
