Introduced Text

Allows vehicles with municipal license plates to enter Michigan state parks without a recreation passport.

This bill amends Michigan law to allow vehicles with municipal license plates to enter state parks and designated state-operated public boating access sites without needing a recreation passport. Previously, only vehicles with specific exemptions or registrations could enter without a passport. The bill specifies that municipal license plates exempt vehicles from the requirement to pay a recreation passport fee for entry into state parks and boating access sites.
