If motor vehicles are restricted from this highway, how do they lay asphalt on it? by heavy construction equipment? --SuperDude 03:04, 7 August 2005 (UTC)

The City of Mackinac Island has the right to grant temporary motor vehicle permits for construction projects on Mackinac Island, including road repair. The permits must state the purpose for which the vehicle will be used and the dates the vehicle will be in use. The city strongly discourages applications for motor vehicle permits during the summer tourist season. Bigturtle 20:13, 22 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] City of Mackinac Island, Not Village

Here's an excerpt of some text I wrote last year for the discussion in the "Mackinac Island" article:

While the downtown core may seem like a "village" (e.g. quaintness, size, etc.), the Village of Mackinac Island was incorporated as a city in 1900, "under a charter that incorporated an area extending a mile offshore and including nearby Round Island." - "100 Years at Mackinac" by David A. Armour, Mackinac Island State Park Commission, 1995, p.10. Thus, the City of Mackinac Island has been an incorporated city for 106 years. CBessert 01:30, 6 May 2006 (UTC)
