This bill proposes the creation of a new section in chapter 24-01 of the North Dakota Century Code to officially designate the overpass on United States Highway 52 as the S/Sgt. Miles Shelley WWII overpass. The legislation mandates that the Department of Transportation will place signs along the highway to reflect this designation and may accept donations for the signs. Additionally, any funds donated for this purpose will be appropriated to the department on a continuing basis.
The bill also includes a declaration of emergency, indicating that the provisions of this act are intended to take effect immediately. This designation honors S/Sgt. Miles Shelley for his service during World War II and ensures that his legacy is recognized in the community.
