Hello, Michlib subscribers:

I am seeking information on joint building authorities and property deed transfers. Specifically, I am interested in more information on the following situations as they pertain to district libraries in Michigan:

1. Where a newly-formed district library received the transfer of a deed to the library property directly from a municipality and were there any conditions? 

2. Where the district library and a local community created a new joint municipal authority which was then granted the library building and property.  

3. Where the district library and one or more municipalities created a joint authority which then issued bonds for a construction project. Please describe whether the creation of this new authority was subject to a successful bond election and the year, amount and repayment conditions of the bond.

Please contact me directly and then I will be most happy to report back the results of the research to the list later this month. Thanks!
