Highways: memorial; criteria for highway renaming; provide for. Amends 2001 PA 142 (MCL 250.1001 - 250.2092) by adding sec. 1a. TIE BAR WITH: SB 0709'25
SB 708 adds new rules to Michigan's highway memorial program, limiting how often and under what conditions memorials can be designated. It restricts memorial designations to no more than 10 per calendar year, prohibits re-designating the same infrastructure for 10 years after a memorial, and requires all designations to follow specific eligibility criteria. The bill applies to all infrastructure types covered by the program, including highways, bridges, trails, and interchanges. This bill is contingent on Senate Bill 709 becoming law, as stated in its enacting section.
