I was following the Royal Oak situation on the migunowners site and noticed several referrals to this site. I don't open carry but feel local governments shouldn't enact laws or ordinances to restrict rights of citizens. I have started to check local government laws and everyone I checked has their own restriction on firearms possession. I have started to email them to get them to comply with http://legislature.mi.gov/doc.aspx?mcl-123-1102. Any tips or suggestions are appreciated.

So far I have attempted to contact:
Kent County Parks
Plainfield TWP Parks
City of Rockford.

FatboyCykes:
Thanks for your efforts!  Keep up the fight, most seem to know, or are willing to admit that these ordinances are unenforceable, but are unwilling to preemptively(:D) do the right thing w/o a little push.

So, again, I thank you and ask you to keep it up!

Of the three entities you listed, the city of Rockford is the only one that appears to be violating the law. The others just reference state law, which they are allowed to do. Have you contacted the City of Rockford?

I have contacted Michael Young, Rockford City Manager via link on their web page. They don't actually list contact information for him or any other members of the Rockford City Council. I have yet to receive a reply.

I started an attempt on my end... perhaps the council thinking that more than just 1 person is interested in this and that there may eventually be 100 OCers showing up to a city council meeting may speed things up.
