Protests
Senators Runestad and McBroom, under their constitutional right of protest (Art. 4, Sec. 18), protested against the passage of House Bill No. 5557 and moved that the statements they made during the discussion of the bill be printed as their reasons for voting “no.”
The motion prevailed.
Senator Runestad’s statement is as follows:
This bill is so obvious—a bill to facilitate the eventual taking over of local zoning in the state of Michigan. I read a lot of publications that say we’ve got to take over the local zoning, we have to get rid of individual housing, we need to have public housing—very small housing, very compact housing. There’s a lot of talk about overriding the local zoning right here in the state of Michigan and I think that package is going to come up very, very soon. This bill—not only does it say you can put in all these new projections about what you’re going to do on housing, which you can already do—I’ve read tons of master plans that have all this in, so that’s not what it is. What it is, is the bill requires a master plan to include, “An assessment of the community’s existing and forecasted housing demands, with strategies and policies for addressing those demands.”
So, here is the crux: they’re going to be
looking at all of this stuff and looking for a matrix on how they can force
local zoning to change, and we had a horrible case of exactly that in my
hometown of White Lake. There was a tax increment authority agreed to by the
county. At the last second, when they were going to vote on that tax increment
authority—the township officials—the county slid over a document that they have
to accept 400 subsidized housing units in order to make this happen. This is
the master plan for the state Democrats. It’s making this plan override the
local zoning to get this compacted housing in the places in Michigan that they
want them.
Senator McBroom’s statement is as follows:
Mr. President, this state is seeming to have a bit of a crisis of dual personalities when it comes to local control and zoning, etc. We forced zoning on our local communities a number of years ago—a lot of push to do that in the first decade of this century—then we continue to roll that back, whether we’re passing an energy bill or whether we’re telling them how to do zoning this way. Why do we continue down this road of zoning at all at this point? What do we really believe? I don’t understand the dual personalities that seem to go on, where we say, Sure, locals, do all of this planning; you have to follow all of these guidelines but, oh by the way, over here, we’re going to take that over. Or, Now we’re going to tell you exactly what they have to look like.
The communities can already add these plans to their planning documents. Why do we need to mandate this? I find the whole exercise in zoning—particularly as a person coming from a rural area—to be very frustrating and very discouraging to my local communities and, ultimately, to our development because they’re not nimble plans. They take an inordinate amount of time to work through and they don’t allow local needs to be addressed in a very fast way. I think this is a shortsighted and just another weird way of nibbling at local control from the state. I recommend a “no” vote.
The motion prevailed.
Senator Klinefelt’s statement is as follows:
I would just like to point out for the record that the Michigan Municipal League and the Michigan Townships Association are both in favor of this bill. If they were concerned about a grab on local control, I don’t think they would be.
The following bill was read a third time:
House Bill No. 5598, entitled
A bill to amend 1883 PA 98, entitled “An act to punish persons who procure or place upon record spurious or fraudulent conveyances of real estate, with intent to deceive,” by amending the title and section 1 (MCL 565.371).

The Senate agreed to the title of the
bill.
The motion prevailed.
Senator Johnson’s statement is as follows:
I rise to ask my colleagues to join me in supporting this important legislation to protect Michigan homeowners from what has unfortunately become a growing crime in our nation and state: fraud related to property deeds. House Bill No. 5598 would make it a felony to knowingly draft and submit fraudulent documents for entry into the Register of Deeds database. This legislation is urgently needed to deter this clearly criminal activity and to hold individuals accountable. Submitting fraudulent documents to a Register of Deeds is used as a precursor to further crimes that seek to profit from property that simply does not belong to the perpetrator.
I want to thank Wayne County Register of Deeds Bernie Youngblood for his tireless efforts to educate legislators about this problem and the need for this legislation. I worked with Bernie when I was the Oakland County Clerk and Register of Deeds, where I saw firsthand the devastating effect that the criminal enterprise of deed fraud can have on individuals and families.
Unfortunately, the incidence of such crimes has only increased in recent years. In fact, recently one of America’s most-recognized homes—Elvis Presley’s famous “Graceland” estate in Memphis, Tennessee—almost fell victim to this exact scam. Fortunately, a judge halted the sale after a notary public, listed on the fraudulent documents, testified that she had never seen or notarized the loan documents allegedly signed by Lisa Marie Presley in her presence. However, many property owners are not so lucky. They can lose their homes, or spend thousands or even tens of thousands of dollars to restore their property rights—or even worse, they have lost their homes.
It is important that we pass this bipartisan legislation to protect the people of Michigan and the integrity of property records in our state. I want to thank the committee chairwoman, my colleague from the 11th District, for taking up these bills and for getting them to the floor for a vote. And again, I urge my colleagues to support this bill—House Bill No. 5598—and also the companion bill—House Bill No. 5599—which prescribes for penalties.
The following bill was read a third time:
House Bill No. 5599, entitled
A bill to amend 1927 PA 175, entitled “The code of criminal procedure,” by amending section 15b of chapter XVII (MCL 777.15b), as amended by 2014 PA 451.
