Michigan Restaurant & Lodging Association President & CEO Provides Statement on HB 5983 & HB 5984 Allowing for Swim Up Bars in Michigan
“The Michigan Restaurant & Lodging Association applauds the Michigan House of Representatives and Michigan Senate Committee on Economic and Small Business Development for passing legislation that allows for swim up bars in Michigan. Attracting visitors to Pure Michigan and providing flexibility for our hotel operators to offer unique experiences for guests has never been more important as the hospitality industry’s landscape continues to shift. This legislation does just that and we look forward to approval by the Michigan Senate and Governor Whitmer signing it into law before the summer recess.”
