A SUMMARY OF HOUSE BILL 5543 AS PASSED BY THE HOUSE

The bill would amend the Michigan Memorial Highway Act to designate the portion of Highway M-57 within Montcalm County as the “Joseph Prentler Memorial Highway.”

Proposed MCL 250.2081

FISCAL IMPACT:

Section 2 of the Michigan Memorial Highway Act indicates that the State Transportation Department shall only provide for the erection of suitable markers indicating the name of the highway "when sufficient private contributions are received to completely cover the cost of erecting and maintaining those markers."  As a result, the bill has no state or local fiscal impact.
