Introduced

To revise the population threshold in a law that authorizes Detroit to impose its own regulatory regime on “limousines,” defined as a vehicle for hire capable carrying up to 15 passengers. The Michigan constitution prohibits passing “local acts” with less than a two thirds majority vote in the House and Senate, so the legislature has circumvented this by granting certain privileges or exemptions to “a city with a population greater than 1 million,” later revised to 900,000, and then 750,000. This bill changes that to 500,000.
