One of the bills, H.B. 4834, wouldrequire patients to providecurrent color photos asidentication to be usedwith the patient registry card. State Rep. Greg Mac-Master is a co-sponsor onthis bill. Other bills wouldprohibit medical marijuanafrom being used in barsand clubs, prohibit patientsfrom growing medical mar-ijuana plants within 500-feet of a church, school orday care center, would clar-ify a bona de physician-patient relationship andwould prohibit use of med-ical marijuana in a schoolbus, on the grounds of any preschool, primary or sec-ondary school, in any cor-rectional facility or in any public place. Bills have alsobeen introduced in the stateSenate.A June 28 Opinion by At-torney General BillSchuette states that theMichigan Medical Mari- juana Act does not providefor the operation of cooper-atives.

He is concerned about theroute of the proposed trail and thatit would infringe on property rights. He requested that thecounty stake the route of the non-motorized trail so people know ex-actly where it would run.
