ANN ARBOR, MI – Three Michigan lawmakers introduced legislation that would curb the University of Michigan’s authority to buy land and expand its footprint across the state.
State Reps. Jimmie Wilson Jr., D-Ypsilanti, Jason Morgan, D-Ann Arbor, and Morgan Foreman, D-Ann Arbor, drafted two bills to go in front of the Michigan Legislature.
The new legislation would require any property UM acquires after Jan. 1, 2027 to remain subject to local zoning rules.
