According to the statute being amended here, it is not supposed to cost the taxpayers anything directly:
MICHIGAN MEMORIAL HIGHWAY ACT (EXCERPT), Act 142 of 2001, MCL 250.1002: "The state transportation department shall only provide for the erection and maintenance of suitable markers at the approach of any of the highways described in this act when sufficient private contributions are received to pay the cost of erecting and maintaining those markers."
