A SUMMARY OF HOUSE BILL 6234 AS INTRODUCED 7-2-02

The bill would allow the Department of Natural Resources to convey certain state-owned property in Huron County to the village of Caseville for consideration of $1. The property would have to be used exclusively for public water access and fishing site purposes, and resident and nonresident members of the public would have to be granted use of the property in the same manner with respect to fees, terms, and conditions. Upon termination of the use of the property for public water access, the state could repossess the property, and the attorney general could bring an action to accomplish this.

The conveyance would be by quitclaim deed approved by the attorney general, and would not reserve mineral rights to the state.
