Email it to [email protected] with a brief description and we would be happy to include it. WHAT'S NEW IN 2021? Is Your Bank or Auction Requiring Proof of License Renewal? We have heard from a number of dealers whose auction or financial institution is requiring proof of dealer license renewal. As MADA and the SOS notified dealers previously, COVID-19 has caused SOS delays in processing and mailing some 2021 dealer licenses. As long as the appropriate renewal application and payment was received prior to the expiration date, the state will consider the dealer active, and the state's website will continue to show the dealer’s status as “Active” with an Expiration date of “31-Dec-2020.” The state understands this is a challenge, and to assist dealers in communicating with banks/auctions, the SOS has prepared a document that dealers can provide to those requiring proof of renewal. Here's what to do... Print this SOS letter: continuation of dealer license pending renewal Print a copy of your license status from CARS eServices You do not need to be logged into your account Go to Business Services > Dealer Services > Search Dealer > enter your Dealer Number (keep other fields empty) > Search Print the page, showing your dealership name and active license status Provide the two pages to those requiring proof that your dealer license is active. If your dealer license status shows "expired" on the eServices website, please contact MADA at (800) 292-1923 or email [email protected]. New Version of RD-108, Updated Dealer Manual As we previously notified dealers, the new version of the RD-108 must now be in use. Chapter 7 of the Dealer Manual has also been updated to reflect the new RD-108, the new plate transfer fee, and references how to use your eServices account to obtain plate fees. (The Business Regulation Section emailed licensed dealers on Wednesday with a detailed list of Chapter 7 updates. Please email MADA if you need another copy.) Dealer Manual, Chapter 7 (Rev. Jan. 2021) RD-108 (Rev. 12/3/2020) Video walk-through of changes Additional Dealer Manual & Repair Facility Manual Updates Make sure your printed copies are current! A new year is a good time to compare all chapters of your printed versions of the Dealer Manual and Repair Facility Manual to the most current versions posted online. (The repair manual was fully updated in Dec. 2020 to incorporate various housekeeping issues.) The Michigan Department of State reminds dealers that changes in law or policy may require periodic updates to the Dealer Manual and the Repair Facility Manual. Revised chapters are no longer mailed to licensees. CONFIRMED: Minimum Wage Remains $9.65/hr in 2021 There is no increase to the minimum wage in 2021. The wage increase is tied to a calculation based on unemployment rate and it did not validate an increase this year. Michigan's Minimum Wage & Overtime web page Revised Michigan Employment Law Poster (dated 1/2021) New Federal Odometer Rule for 2011 & Newer Model Years There are new requirements in place for odometer disclosure upon a transfer of vehicle ownership. The new federal rules require a seller to disclose the mileage of the vehicle being sold for a period of 20 years following the production model year of the vehicle (previously 10 years). As of Jan. 1, 2021, model year 2011 vehicles become subject to the new rule, requiring odometer disclosure for those vehicles when sold, through calendar year 2031 (20 years). The new rule will be handled on a phase-in process, so one model year will be added to the rule each year (i.e. model year 2012 is added in 2022, etc.), until all model years are phased into the 20 year disclosure rule. Model year 2010 and older vehicles are EXEMPT from odometer disclosure requirements. Mileage disclosure at time of ownership transfer is voluntary. Questions? Email [email protected] CVR Inventory Count Jan. 12; Obsolete Tabs Must Be Returned Side Note: check the date on your CVR dealer stamp. If the year has expired please contact Jill Wigger, CVR Account Executive, at [email protected] to request an updated stamp. Jan. 12 Count Day Instructions Dealers are reminded to submit the Q1 inventory count on Tuesday, January 12, 2021, before processing any new CVR transactions. Dealers will not be able to process CVR transactions until the count is submitted. 1. Print an inventory available report from the CVR computer. 2. Verify the report by physically checking the actual inventory to ensure that each plate or tab/permit is present. Sealed boxes do not need to be opened, simply check the labeling on each package. 3. If there are no discrepancies between the printed report and the physical verification, type the inventory numbers (beginning, ending and totals for plates, tabs and permits) into the CVR system. Remember to enter each line separately. 4. Submit the report. Dealers who do not submit the required information are in violation of their agreement with the Michigan Department of State and risk losing the ability to use the CVR program. If you have questions, or if you are having difficulty meeting your requirements, please contact your CVR account representative or call CVR Support (800) 333-6995 so that we can help you stay in compliance.

  • CAPITOL NEWS UPDATE August 7, 2020
    MCALVEY MERCHANT & ASSOCIATES CAPITOL NEWS UPDATE August 7, 2020 CAPITOL NEWS UPDATE WEEK OF AUGUST 3, 2020 Integrity, Individual Attention. Precision Strategy. Proven Results RECORD-SETTING PRIMARY ELECTIONS A record number of voters participated in Michigan’s primary election on Aug. 4, with more than 2.5 million people casting a vote either in person or by absentee ballot. One of the most followed races in the primary was the 13th Congressional District rematch between U.S. Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Detroit) and Detroit City Council President Brenda Jones. Jones represented the district for a few weeks in 2018, following the resignation of Rep. John Conyers (D-Detroit) in December 2017. After his resignation, there were two elections for the seat with Jones winning the special election to complete Conyers unexpired term, and Tlaib winning the regular race for the Congressional seat. This year, Tlaib and Jones were the only primary candidates. On Tuesday, Tlaib won the strongly Democratic district with nearly twice as many votes as Jones, potentially guaranteeing her a second term. In the 3rd Congressional District in West Michigan, Republican Peter Meijer, a U.S. Army veteran whose family founded the well-known Meijer retail chain, won a five-way contest with more than 50 percent of the vote, including holding a strong lead over his main opponent Rep. Lynn Afendoulis. Meijer will face Democratic attorney Hillary Scholten. The winner of that race will succeed U.S. Rep. Justin Amash, a former Republican turned Libertarian who is not seeking reelection. In the 10th Congressional District, a Republican stronghold in the Thumb region, Republican businesswoman Lisa McClain of Bruce Township, a pro-Trump Republican who outspent her opponents, beat state Rep.

  • Detroit's Thanksgiving Day Tradition
    DETROIT’S THANKSGIVING DAY TRADITION It was, legend says, a typically colorful, probably chilly, November day in 1622 that Pilgrims and Native Americans celebrated the new world's bounty with a sumptuous feast. They sat together at Plymouth Plantation (they spelled it Plimouth) in Massachusetts, gave thanks for the goodness set before them, then dined on pumpkin pie, sweet potatoes, maize, cranberry sauce, turkey and who knows what else. Actually, fish was just as predominant a staple. And history books say pumpkin pie really debuted a year later. But regardless of the accuracy of the details, that's how Thanksgiving Day is seen by Americans -- except Detroiters. They may have most of the same images as everyone else, but with a new twist that began in 1934. That's when Detroiters and their outstate Michigan compatriots found themselves at the dawn of an unplanned behavior modification, courtesy of George A. "Dick" Richards, owner of the city's new entry in the National Football League: The Detroit Lions. Larry Paladino, Lions Pride, 1993 Four generations of Detroiters have been a proud part of the American celebration of Thanksgiving. The relationship between Detroit and Thanksgiving dates back to 1934 when owner G.A. Richards scheduled a holiday contest between his first-year Lions and the Chicago Bears. Some 75 years later, fans throughout the State of Michigan have transformed an annual holiday event into the single greatest tradition in the history of American professional team sports. Indeed, if football is America’s passion, Thanksgiving football is Detroit’s passion. DETROIT AND THANKSGIVING DAY No other team in professional sports can claim to be as much a part of an American holiday as can the Detroit Lions with Thanksgiving.
