Trustee briefs board on two state bills affecting school districts
Summary
Trustee Cheryl B. Blau summarized two pending state bills — HB 5549 on behavioral threat-assessment teams and HB 6058 on changes to Public Act 152 insurance treatment — and noted the 103rd Legislature convenes Jan. 8, 2025.
During the Jan. 7, 2025 meeting Trustee Cheryl B. Blau gave a legislative update covering bills the board should monitor. Blau said HB 5549 "requires school districts to have behavioral threat assessment and management teams in each school building" and described HB 6058 as proposing changes to Public Act 152, including raising the hard cap for insurance costs and setting minimum coverage for districts that use the 80/20 option.
Blau also noted that the 103rd Michigan Legislature convenes on Jan. 8, 2025. The update was informational; no board action was taken at the meeting related to these bills.
