       MICHIGAN MUNICIPAL INCOME
STRATEGY: Invests normally in investment grade municipal securities whose

       MINNESOTA MUNICIPAL INCOME
STRATEGY: Invests normally in investment grade municipal securities whose
interest is free from federal income tax and Minnesota personal income tax.

MICHIGAN MUNICIPAL INCOME, MINNESOTA MUNICIPAL INCOME, and OHIO MUNICIPAL
INCOME seek high current income that is free from federal income tax, its

investing in investment-grade municipal securities under normal conditions.
FMR normally invests so that at least 80% of each fund's income is free
from both federal and state income taxes. 
The following information replaces similar information found in "Securities
and Investment Practices" on page 16.
DEBT SECURITIES. Bonds and other debt instruments are used by issuers to
borrow money from investors. The issuer pays the investor a fixed or
variable rate of interest, and must repay the amount borrowed at maturity.
Some debt securities, such as zero coupon bonds, do not pay current
interest, but are purchased at a discount from their face values. In
general, bond prices rise when interest rates fall, and vice versa. Debt
securities have varying degrees of quality and varying levels of
sensitivity to changes in interest rates. Longer-term bonds are generally
more sensitive to interest rate changes than short-term bonds.
Investment-grade debt securities are medium- and high-quality securities.
Some, however, may possess speculative characteristics, and may be more
sensitive to economic changes and to changes in the financial condition of
issuers.
RESTRICTIONS: The bond funds normally invest in investment-grade
securities, but reserve the right to invest up to 5% of their assets in
below investment-grade securities (sometimes called "municipal junk
bonds"). A security is considered to be investment-grade if it is rated
investment-grade by Moody's Investors Service, Standard & Poor's, Duff &
Phelps Credit Rating Co., or Fitch Investors Service, L.P., or is unrated
but judged by FMR to be of equivalent quality. The fund may not invest in
securities judged by FMR to be of equivalent quality to those rated lower
than B by Moody's or S&P.
   The following information supplements the information in "Securities and
Investment Practices" beginning on page 16.
    CASH MANAGEMENT.    A fund may invest in money market securities and in
a money market fund available only to funds and accounts managed by FMR or
its affiliates, whose goal is to seek a high level of current income exempt
from federal income tax while maintaining a stable $1.00 share price.  A
major change in interest rates or a default on the money market fund's
investments could cause its share price to change.
RESTRICTION: The bond funds do not currently intend to invest in a money
market fund.
The following information replaces similar information found in "How to Buy
Shares" on page 26.

The following information replaces similar information found in
"Transaction Details" beginning on page 34.
    FIDELITY RESERVES THE RIGHT TO DEDUCT AN ANNUAL MAINTENANCE FEE    of
$12.00 from accounts with a value of less than $2,500, subject to an annual
maximum charge of $24.00 per shareholder. It is expected that accounts will
be valued on the second Friday in November of each year. Accounts opened
after September 30 will not be subject to the fee for that year. The fee,
which is payable to the transfer agent, is designed to offset in part the
relatively higher costs of servicing smaller accounts. This fee will not be
deducted from Fidelity brokerage accounts, retirement accounts (except
non-prototype retirement accounts), accounts using regular investment
plans, or if total assets in Fidelity exceed $30,000. Eligibility for the
$30,000 waiver is determined by aggregating Fidelity accounts maintained by
FSC or FBSI which are registered under the same social security number or
which list the same social security number for the custodian of a Uniform
Gifts/Transfers to Minors Act account.
    IF YOUR ACCOUNT BALANCE FALLS BELOW $2,000,    you will be given 30
days' notice to reestablish the minimum balance. If you do not increase
your balance, Fidelity reserves the right to close your account and send
the proceeds to you. Your shares will be redeemed at the NAV on the day
your account is closed.
