AI Summary
This bill amends the Regional Tourism Marketing Act by updating several definitions and terminology related to tourism marketing organizations. The bill primarily focuses on replacing references to the Michigan Strategic Fund with a new "bureau of fair competition and free enterprise" and clarifying definitions of terms like "transient facility" and "director." The bill expands the list of facilities excluded from the definition of "transient facility" to explicitly include college dormitories, hospitals, nursing homes, hospices, facilities near ski lifts, and facilities owned by tax-exempt organizations under section 501(c) of the Internal Revenue Code. Additionally, it updates the reference to the Travel Bureau (now called Travel Michigan) and provides a technical tie-bar provision that makes the bill's enactment contingent on the passage of Senate Bill 631. The changes appear to modernize the language and scope of the existing law while maintaining the core purpose of supporting regional tourism marketing efforts in Michigan.
