As a result of this work, and the willingness of Representative Bumstead to address the League&#8217;s concerns, significant changes were made to this legislation to improve local control. A County or a Township must now provide written notice to each municipality within the County in advance of adopting a resolution that allows or prohibits ORV use on their roadways. Local municipalities will now be allowed to both open and close roads located within their municipality to the use of ORVs through the adoption of an ordinance.<\/p>\n<p>As a result of these changes the League officially supported this legislation in committee and looks forward to helping secure final passage.
