SCR-28, As Adopted by Senate, November 1, 2005

 

            Senate Concurrent Resolution No. 28.

            A concurrent resolution to increase the total project cost of the Department of Corrections Riverside Correctional Facility Power Plant Automation project.

            Whereas, The Department of Corrections Riverside Correctional Facility Power Plant Automation project was authorized in 2003 PA 193 with a total project cost of $3,000,000; and

            Whereas, The Department of Corrections, together with the Department of Management and Budget, has estimated that the total cost to complete the Riverside Correctional Facility Power Plant Automation project has increased to $4,500,000; and

            Whereas, Pursuant to section 246 of 1984 PA 431, as amended, being MCL § 18.1246, the authorized cost of projects shall only be established or revised by specific reference in a budget act, by concurrent resolution adopted by both houses of the legislature, or inferred by the total amount of any appropriations made to complete plans and construction; now, therefore, be it

            Resolved by the Senate (the House of Representatives concurring), That the Michigan Legislature recognizes the need to increase the total authorized cost for the Department of Corrections Riverside Correctional Facility Power Plant Automation project to an amount not to exceed $4,500,000 (State Building Authority share $4,499,900 and the State General Fund/General Purpose share $100) and that the legislature intends to continue to appropriate funds for construction subject to the limitations herein stated, in amounts not to exceed the authorized cost, subject to the ordinary vicissitudes of the legislative process; and be it further

            Resolved, That copies of this resolution be transmitted to the State Budget Director, the Director of the Department of Management and Budget, and the Director of the Department of Corrections.
