Bill Summary
An act relating to transportation facility designations; providing an honorary designation of a certain transportation facility in specified counties; directing the Department of Transportation to erect suitable markers; providing an effective date.
AI Summary
This bill designates a specific stretch of U.S. Highway 92/State Road 600 (Gandy Boulevard) running between West Shore Boulevard in Hillsborough County and 4th Street North in Pinellas County as the "Senator James A. Sebesta Memorial Highway" in honor of Senator Sebesta. The bill requires the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) to install appropriate roadway markers identifying this highway segment with its new honorary designation. The new highway name will take effect on July 1, 2025, which provides the FDOT time to prepare and install the commemorative signage. This type of legislative action is a common way for state legislatures to memorialize notable public servants by naming transportation infrastructure in their honor, creating a lasting tribute that recognizes their contributions to the community or state.
