The distribution of funds is authorized by the State Revenue Sharing Act, Public Act 140 of 1971, as amended. Beginning October 1, 2011, units of local governments receiving statutory revenue sharing under PA 140 will now have to meet certain criteria to be eligible to receive a percentage of the total revenue sharing appropriated.
