    2012 House Bill 5414 (Establish more “dark sky preserves” )

    Introduced in the House on February 21, 2012, to designate Wilderness State Park, a portion of Port Crescent State Park in Huron County, and state forestland within Bliss Township, Cross Village Township, and Wawatam in Emmet County as “dark sky preserves.” The term is not defined in statute, but in general it means restricting outdoor lighting to a minimum

    The vote was 80 in favor, 28 opposed and 2 not voting

    (House Roll Call 188 at House Journal 0)

    Seems very unfair to have a yes AND  a no vote required in ONE bill.

    Voting to "preserve dark sky" in the Lower Peninsula is fine.

    HOWEVER, in the SAME bill "preserve dark sky' WAS DENIED TO THE UPPER PENINSULA!!!  WHY??  HOW HATEFUL CAN OUR

     LANSING LEGISLATORS BE??  No wonder there are 'secede from the Union' sparks in the Upper Peninsula 

    THIS IS OUR INGLORIOUS 'SENATE' AT WORK IN MICHIGAN.. WHO PAYS THESE LEGISLATORS TO DISDAIN THE UPPER

    PENINSULA?.

    I really love the ideas behind this so much. You are able to get so much from everything that they offer here. The changes will benefit so many in the future. Keep up the good work. http://businessprintz.weebly**.*com
