Join the League to learn more about two programs, Energy Navigators and Community Energy Management Grants, that can help your community achieve its clean energy goals. Great Plains Institute (GPI) is offering free, hands-on support through Energy Navigators to help local governments match with resources and tools to address energy-related issues. This program is open to communities experiencing energy resilience challenges due to geography, infrastructure, weather, and other considerations. Collaborative and locally focused, GPI works closely with local governments and organizations to help them understand their needs, bolster existing expertise, and open pathways to available resources and funding. Their mission is to equip local decision-makers with focused support that accelerates progress toward a more resilient and affordable energy future.
Benefits
Through this program, your local government receives 10–40 hours of guidance and support.

The Department of Environment, Great Lakes and Energy will launch another round of funding for the Community Energy Management (CEM) grant program in fall 2025. The CEM program is a flexible and easy-to-access funding source for projects such as energy management, energy efficiency, renewable energy, fleet electrification, EV charging infrastructure, sustainable financing solutions, and clean energy workforce development. Anything your community identifies with support from the Energy Navigators program would likely be eligible for implementation funding through the CEM program.

What Comes Next: Reshaping Trial Court Funding in Michigan
2025-04-22 13:00 - 14:00 | https://mml.org/event/what-comes-next-reshaping-trial-court-funding-in-michigan/
Last fall, the State Court Administrative Office relaunched an “Alternative Funding for Trial Courts Workgroup” under the Michigan Judicial Council (MJC), guided by the MJC’s previous work, the recommendations of the 2019 Trial Court Funding Commission, and Public Act 47 of 2024.
The goal of the workgroup is to develop a new funding model for trial courts. Topics of discussion will include what information will contribute a set “maintenance of effort” (MOE) by local governments to fund their trial courts, the plan to centralize collections of court assessments and distribute court revenue by the state, and the necessity of state appropriations to fund local trial courts based on operational funding needs unmet by the MOE.
This webinar is intended for municipalities serving as local funding units for their district and municipal trial courts, so they may learn more about the workgroup’s recommendations and implementation plans. Attendees will have the opportunity to ask questions.https://my.mml.org/event-information?id=a0lUu000004NhZpIAK
