Bill Summary

An act relating to transportation facility designations; providing honorary designations of certain transportation facilities in a specified county; directing the Department of Transportation to erect suitable markers; providing an effective date.

AI Summary

This bill designates two specific roadway segments in Orange County, Florida with honorary names: a portion of W. South Street between South Division Avenue and U.S. 441 will be named "Geraldine Thompson Way" in honor of Geraldine Thompson, and a portion of International Drive between S.R. 528 and Sand Lake Road will be named "Harris Rosen Way" in recognition of Harris Rosen. The bill directs the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) to erect suitable markers to identify these newly named roadway segments. The legislation is a symbolic gesture to recognize and commemorate these individuals, likely for their contributions to the local community. The honorary road name designations will take effect on July 1, 2025, providing the FDOT with time to prepare and install the appropriate signage marking these transportation facilities.
