Bill Summary

AN ACT to amend 2001 PA 142, entitled ?An act to consolidate prior acts naming certain Michigan highways; to provide for the naming of certain highways; to prescribe certain duties of the state transportation department; and to repeal acts and parts of acts and certain resolutions,? (MCL 250.1001 to 250.2092) by adding section 11d.

AI Summary

This bill amends the existing Michigan highway naming statute by designating a specific portion of US-31 in Grand Traverse County, specifically the segment between Three Mile Road and Bunker Hill Road, as the "Trooper James E. Boland Memorial Highway". The bill appears to be a memorial designation honoring Trooper James E. Boland, likely a law enforcement officer who served in the area, by permanently naming this stretch of highway after him. Such memorial highway designations are a common way for state legislatures to recognize and commemorate individuals who have made significant contributions to their community, often through public service or heroic actions. The bill includes standard legislative language indicating it will take immediate effect upon approval, and provides spaces for the signatures of the House Clerk, Senate Secretary, and the Governor to formally enact the highway name change.
