Sec. 13.(1) Property of an authority is public property devoted to an essential public and governmental function and purpose. Income of the authority is considered to be for a public and governmental purpose.
(2) The property of the authority and its income and operation are exempt from all taxes and special assessments of this state or a local unit of government of this state.
(3) Beginning on the effective date of the amendatory act that added this subsection, 1 in addition to the exemptions under subsection (2), property of the authority and its income and operation are exempt from any user fees imposed by a local unit of government of this state. This act does not prevent an authority from contracting with a local unit of government of this state for services. If an authority, or its tenant, enters into an express contract for services with a local unit of government of this state, a user fee may be charged for those services. A local unit of government of this state shall not provide services to an authority, or its tenant, unless an express contract is entered into for those services.
