MI HB4580

Amends the definition of "sport shooting range" to explicitly include ranges that charge dues, collect membership fees, conduct training or testing, sell concessions or supplies, or conduct similar commercial activities while retaining statutory protections under the act.

Allows sport shooting ranges operating lawfully at the time a local ordinance is enacted to continue operating even if they later fail to conform to new or amended ordinances, regardless of commercial activities.

Permits sport shooting ranges existing as of July 5, 1994 that comply with generally accepted operation practices to operate within their preexisting geographic boundaries despite local ordinance violations, including authority to expand membership, increase public participation, and expand events and activities.

Requires the Natural Resources Commission to review and revise generally accepted operation practices at least every 5 years, with standards established by nationally recognized nonprofit organizations providing firearm safety training.

Authorizes existing sport shooting ranges to repair, remodel, reinforce, reconstruct, or restore buildings and structures as necessary for public safety or continued use, with damaged structures to be restored within 1 year or face potential termination of the nonconforming use.
