Bill to Abolish Michigan Homeowner Construction Lien Recovery Fund Passes House

ADVERTISEMENTS
On June 16, 2010, H.B. 5830, and a series of companion bills that would abolish the Homeowner Construction Lien Recovery Fund, was passed by the Michigan House of Representatives by a 94-9 vote. The bill has been referred to the Senate Appropriations Committee.

As we noted in earlier posts (here and here), the Lien Fund is out of money, overwhelmed by claims, and without a legal mechanism to replenish itself. PA 497 of 2006 repealed Section 201(2) of the Construction Lien Act and eliminated the ability of the Fund to make a $50 special assessment when the Fund fell below $1 million. Instead, the Fund can only assess members a $10 annual renewal fee.
