Why this matters
Definitions in the Stille-DeRossett-Hale act determine the scope of Michigan’s uniform building-code framework, so even a narrow definitional amendment can shift which structures, materials, or actors fall under state code enforcement. Because the bill is tie-barred to HB 6303, its substantive effect on builders, local enforcing agencies, and permit applicants will only become clear once the companion measure’s content is known.
