Heading: effect of 1982 pa 304 on proposal h

Text: In addition to the certified questions, we requested that the parties address the effect of 1982 PA 304 on Proposal H. Defendants argue that the Legislature enacted 1982 PA 304 after it enacted Proposal H [5] and that, because these two measures conflict, 1982 PA 304, the later-enacted provision, repeals Proposal H, rendering it void and of no effect. We reject this assertion on the basis of our conclusion that Proposal H was enacted on November 2, 1982, by popular approval of the voters. Prior to that date, Proposal H had no effect and hence was not yet enacted. Accordingly, Proposal H was the later enactment and was not repealed by the enactment of 1982 PA 304. [6]
