Housing: other; requirement for every rental unit to be equipped with a carbon monoxide device; provide for. Amends 1972 PA 348 (MCL 554.601 - 554.616) by adding sec. 1c.

This bill requires landlords in Michigan to install at least one working carbon monoxide detector in every rental unit they manage. The law defines these devices as units that alert occupants with a distinct sound and are certified by a nationally recognized testing laboratory. Landlords who fail to comply with this requirement face misdemeanor charges, which could result in a fine of up to $500, jail time of up to 90 days, or both. This measure directly impacts the safety standards for residential rentals and the legal responsibilities of property owners.
