Local government: other; ticket enhancement fees on entertainment or amusement admissions; allow local governments to collect. Creates new act.
This bill allows cities, villages, and townships in Michigan to charge an additional fee on tickets for events like concerts, sports games, and museum visits. The fee is capped at $3.00 per ticket and cannot be applied to admissions priced at $30.00 or less, while exempting events such as those at schools, colleges, and small venues with fewer than 500 attendees. Local governments must pass an ordinance to implement the fee, and the state Department of Treasury will handle the collection and distribution of the money, which must then be used by the municipality to cover costs related to entertainment events. Entertainment providers or online marketplace facilitators selling these tickets would be responsible for collecting and remitting the fee to the state.
