Romney Signs Mining Bills Boosting Upper Peninsula Economy
Governor Romney signed two bipartisan mining bills, HB 635 and HB 290, aimed at strengthening the Upper Peninsula economy. Bill 685 imposes a targeted tax on underground pelletized iron ore, tied to processing shipments and mine value, while Bill 290 seeks equal assessment of mining and non mining property. The measures aim to reduce costs for miners and spur investments, with sponsors listed as Reps. Jacobetti, Morrison, Mack, Hellman, Erlandsen and Perras. Also covered are VFW officers installed in a ceremony and ROTC banquet plans, plus objections to moving the Michigan State Highway Tourist Information Booth to Ironwood.
