This allocation of CARES Act funding is in addition to the previous CARES Act allocations for local governments that were recently adopted in the state Legislature and await the Governor\u2019s signature.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Additional details are not yet available, but we should have them soon.\u00a0The actual budget reductions will likely be done through a negative supplemental appropriation bill and that will not be acted upon until the latter half of July.\u00a0Stay tuned for additional information as it becomes available.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In recognition of the importance local governments, Governor Whitmer and legislative leaders have reached a budget agreement to address the state\u2019s current year budget situation.
