Bill Summary
A BILL for an Act to create and enact a new section to chapter 39-13 of the North Dakota Century Code, relating to a highway logo sign program.
AI Summary
This bill creates a new highway logo sign program in North Dakota. The program allows the state Department of Transportation to establish signs along state highways that provide specific information to motorists about nearby gas, food, camping, and lodging options. The Department can either erect and maintain the signs directly or contract with a qualified business to do so. The bill requires the Department to adopt rules for the program that align with federal standards, including sign placement, size, and spacing requirements. All costs associated with the program must be covered by agreements between the Department, businesses, and advertisers, unless the contract between the Department and a business states otherwise. Additionally, if the Department contracts with a business to manage the signs, the business must obtain liability insurance that jointly covers the state and the business.
