PFC NICHOLAS H. BLODGETT, CPL ROSS A. SMITH,

AND SPC ERIC T. BURRI MEMORIAL HIGHWAYS

House Bill 6025 as introduced

Sponsor:  Rep. Tommy Brann

Committee:  Transportation and Infrastructure

Complete to 5-31-18

SUMMARY:

House Bill 6025 would amend the Michigan Memorial Highway Act to designate portions of highway US-131 in the city of Wyoming. The portion between exits 78 and 79 would be known as the “Spc Eric T. Burri Memorial Highway,” between exits 79 and 80 as the “Cpl Ross A. Smith Memorial Highway,” and between exits 80 and 81 as the “Pfc Nicholas H. Blodgett Memorial Highway.”

Proposed MCL 250.1003b

FISCAL IMPACT:

Section 2 of the Michigan Memorial Highway Act indicates that the state transportation department shall provide for the erection of suitable markers indicating the name of the highway only “when sufficient private contributions are received to completely cover the cost of erecting and maintaining those markers.” As a result, the bill has no state or local fiscal impact.
