Introduced Text

Exempts Gold Star family members from Michigan state park recreation passport fees.

This bill amends the Michigan Vehicle Code to exempt Gold Star family members from paying the state park recreation passport fee. The recreation passport fee, which authorizes entry into all state parks and recreation areas and designated state-operated public boating access sites, is currently $10.00 for a vehicle registered for 2 years and $5.00 for a motorcycle. The bill ensures that Gold Star family members are not required to pay this fee, providing them with free access to these facilities.
