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 115.
AI Summary
This bill amends Michigan's existing highway naming statute by designating a specific portion of M-34 highway in Hillsdale County as the "Deputy Sheriff William Butler, Jr. Memorial Highway". The designated segment runs between Pioneer Road and South Pittsford Road and serves to honor Deputy Sheriff William Butler, Jr., likely memorializing his service and potential sacrifice in law enforcement. By adding this specific section to the existing 2001 PA 142 legislation, which consolidates and provides guidelines for naming Michigan highways, the bill continues the state's practice of recognizing local heroes and public servants through highway dedications. Such memorial highway designations are typically used to commemorate individuals who have made significant contributions to their community or who have died in the line of duty, in this case likely a local law enforcement officer.
