If this bill were to become law, it would update current statutes by urging the Arizona State Board on Geographic and Historic Names (ASBGHN) to rename State Route 260 as the "Donald J. Trump Highway." The bill specifically directs the ASBGHN to approve, place, and maintain appropriate signage for the designated highway. This change reflects a shift in responsibility from the Arizona Department of Transportation to the ASBGHN regarding the naming of highways.
Additionally, the bill includes a provision for the Secretary of State to transmit a copy of the memorial to the Chair of ASBGHN. The amendments adopted by the committee replace references to the Arizona Department of Transportation with the ASBGHN and make necessary conforming changes to ensure consistency within the statute. Overall, the bill aims to formalize the designation of State Route 260 while streamlining the process through which such designations are made.
