Summary
The legislation amends Michigan’s planning enabling act to allow chief elected officials or county boards to name up to three alternates for city, village, township, or county planning commissions. Alternate members serve the same term length as regular members and have the same voting rights when called to replace an absent or conflicted regular member. This change aims to improve commission continuity and decision‑making capacity.
