What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Under current law, certain highway routes and bridges have been designated

and marked to memorialize, commemorate, or recognize certain individuals, groups,

or events. This bill directs the Department of Transportation (DOT) to designate

and, upon receipt of sufficient contributions from interested parties, mark a specified

highway route in the counties of Rock, Dane, Jefferson, Dodge, and Fond du Lac as

the "Rock River Trail Scenic and Historic Route" to increase public appreciation of

the river, its scenic beauty, and the historic landmarks along the river's course. DOT

may not expend any state funds from any DOT appropriation for the costs of

fabrication, erection, maintenance, or replacement of these markers except funds

received as contributions to cover these costs, which may include funds received from

another state agency for this purpose.
