What’s in it

This bill designates the segment of U.S. highway which crosses the state from Sioux City to Dubuque as the “Iowa Patriots Memorial Highway”, and authorizes the department of transportation to erect signs on or adjacent to the highway indicating the designation. The bill applies to the segment of U.S. highway on the effective date of the bill, and applies to the segment thereafter regardless of whether the highway’s designation as U.S. highway is subsequently changed by the federal government.

Changed since by amendment H-8166; see Amendments.

Fiscal note

Cost: up to $12,000 Compare with other bills

There is no fiscal impact from SF 388. However, if the DOT chose to erect signs, the cost to manufacture and install signs to designate the highway would be about $300 per sign. If 40 signs were erected, the cost to the DOT would be approximately $12,000 from the Primary Road Fund.
