2. Are you interested in changes to Michigan's overall business or personal income tax structure? If so, what would they be?

4. What would you do with budget surplus funds?
5. Are there any specific instances where government services should be combined or eliminated for increased efficiency or as a cost savings?
6. Proposal A of 1994 significantly changed Michigan's property taxation system. What do you see as some of the benefits and/or flaws in this current system of taxation? Are there measures you would propose to improve the system?
7. How do you feel about legislation that would mandate testing for mold, lead based paint or the condition of the well and septic system for residential property at the time of sale?
8. Michigan's foreclosure rate has stabilized but is still significant. What should be done to fight this problem?
9. Legislation has been introduced to shorten the redemption period for foreclosed properties in Michigan from six months to three months. What are your views on Michigan's foreclosure redemption period and how we can address the foreclosure crisis in Michigan?
