Bill Summary
Current law requires the Department of Transportation to publish highway service maps and folded highway maps of the state highway system. DOT must identify on these highway service maps and folded highway maps each veterans memorial highway or bridge and the locations of specified veterans memorials, homes, and museums. This bill requires DOT to identify the location of the Brooklyn Area Veterans Memorial on these maps. For further information see the state fiscal estimate, which will be printed as an appendix to this bill.
AI Summary
This bill requires the Wisconsin Department of Transportation (DOT) to add the Brooklyn Area Veterans Memorial, located in the town of Brooklyn in Green County, to the state's highway service maps and folded highway maps. The bill builds upon existing law that already mandates the identification of veterans memorials, highways, bridges, homes, and museums on state transportation maps. The new provision specifically ensures that this particular veterans memorial will be clearly marked on official state highway maps. The bill will take effect for highway maps published after its effective date, which means future maps will include this specific memorial's location. This legislative action appears to be a way to formally recognize and provide visibility for a local veterans memorial, helping to honor and commemorate the contributions of veterans in the Brooklyn area of Green County, Wisconsin.
