Sec. 9.
The legislature of this state shall not approve the acquisition of property rights by the United States under this act unless both of the following have occurred:
(a) The United States, by a statute then in force and effect, must have provided for, and must be ready, able, and willing to make tax payments, or payments in lieu of taxes, upon the premises, including the improvements to be placed on the premises, at the rate that other similar property in the county is taxed. Payments required by this subdivision shall continue as long as United States ownership continues, and shall be apportioned among the state and all political subdivisions which otherwise would have had the right to tax the property from time to time if the property had been privately owned. A tax, or payments in lieu of taxes, shall not be demanded upon a right of way for a public road or post office or for any purpose expressly stated in clause 17 of section 8 of article I of the constitution of the United States. A payment in lieu of taxes shall be made as provided in Act No. 318 of the Public Acts of 1941, being sections 3.221 to 3.229 of the Michigan Compiled Laws.
(b) The United States has agreed in writing to pay to the affected political subdivisions a specified portion of any profit derived directly or indirectly by the United States or any other entity from the acquisition of property rights.
