The Michigan Boating Industries Association is encouraging support of ballot proposal 1-20, a referendum that would allow “more flexibility” on how on how Michigan Natural Resources Trust Fund are spent. “There has been a bit of confusion by liberals, conservatives, and just citizens in general on this issue, but when digging out from under Proposal 1 is a win for Michigan citizens,” said MBIA board director Jim Coburn in a statement. “Proposal 1 increases the monies available to be spent on acquiring scenic and ecologically important land and increases funding to development projects.”
