THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF MICHIGAN ENACT:

 

     Sec. 503d. If the use of land owned by the department is

 

subject to certain conditions because of the source of funds used

 

for the purchase of that land, or for the purchase of other land

 

that was exchanged for that land, all of the following apply:

 

     (a) The conditions shall be applied on a proportion of the

 

land area that does not exceed the proportion of the funding for

 

the acquisition of the land provided from that source.

 

     (b) The department shall designate the part of the land to

 

which the conditions apply.


 

     (c) The part of the land to which the conditions apply shall

 

be the less accessible part of the land. If 2 or more sources of

 

funds used for the acquisition of the land subject the use of the

 

land to conditions, the part of the land designated under

 

subdivision (b) for the funding source imposing, in the

 

department's judgment, the strictest conditions shall be the least

 

accessible, the part of the land designated for the funding source

 

imposing the second-strictest conditions shall be the second-least

 

accessible, and parts of the land shall continue to be designated

 

for the remaining funding sources in like manner until all funding

 

sources imposing conditions on the use of the land are accounted

 

for.
