A SUMMARY OF HOUSE BILL 4655 AS ENROLLED

MCL 250.1080

FISCAL IMPACT:

Section 2 of Public Act 142 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.
