A2: State House

The Traverse City Record-Eagle reports that state Rep. Rebekah Warren (D-Ann Arbor) has introduced legislation to “establish a two-year moratorium on new digital billboards until a federal analysis is completed and safety recommendations are issued by the end of 2011. Under the proposal, the state would issue no permits for new digital billboards or conversion of existing static billboards to ones with moving animation or flashing lights until Jan. 1, 2012. It would allow existing electronic billboards to remain in use.” [Source]
