Sec. 10a.
(1) Annually the state transportation department shall determine the miles of state trunk line highways, county primary and local roads, and city and village major and local streets transferred to and from state, county, city, or village jurisdiction during the preceding period of July 1 to June 30. In each year after that determination, the transferred mileage shall be accumulated and added to the mileage transferred in each subsequent July 1 to June 30 period.
(2) The current average revenue worth per mile of a county primary road and a county local road shall be determined annually by dividing the total county primary and local road mileages respectively as of the first day of the preceding July 1 to June 30 period into the total amount of Michigan transportation funds returned to counties pursuant to this act for use on county primary and local roads respectively during that period, except money returned to counties pursuant to section 12(2) and (3).
(3) The total amount of money to be transferred from and to the state trunk line fund, the counties, cities, and villages shall be determined annually by multiplying the current revenue worth per mile of a county primary road and a county local road respectively by the number of accumulated miles in each category transferred from and to state, county, city, or village jurisdiction. If the transferred facility becomes classified as part of the local road or street system of the receiving jurisdiction, the transfer of money shall be calculated on the basis of the revenue worth per mile of a county local road. In any other category of jurisdictional transfer, the transfer of money shall be calculated on the basis of the revenue worth per mile of a county primary road.
(4) For jurisdictional transfers made from the state to a county, city, or village after July 1, 1992, the amount in the state trunk line fund to be transferred shall be transferred to the county, city, or village receiving jurisdiction. If the transferred highway is then classified as part of the local road or street system of the receiving jurisdiction, the transfer of money to the receiving jurisdiction shall be calculated on the basis of the revenue worth per mile of a county local road as determined in subsection (2). If the transferred highway is then classified as part of the primary road or major street system of the receiving jurisdiction, the transfer of money to the receiving jurisdiction shall be calculated on the basis of the revenue worth per mile of a county primary road as determined in subsection (2). This subsection and subsection (5) shall not be construed to effect contracts entered into before or after the effective date of this subsection pursuant to Act No. 166 of the Public Acts of 1965, being sections 408.551 to 408.558 of the Michigan Compiled Laws, for the maintenance of a transferred highway.
(5) In cities and villages with a population of 25,000 or more, trunk line mileage that is transferred to local jurisdiction after July 1, 1992 and is then classified as a major street shall be certified at twice its measured length.
(6) The transfer of funds under this section shall be included each year in the October appropriation of the Michigan transportation fund.
