This bill proposes the creation of a new section in chapter 24-01 of the North Dakota Century Code to designate state highway 200 as the "North Dakota fallen peace officers memorial highway." The designation will cover the stretch of highway from the Minnesota border to the Montana border, with the Department of Transportation responsible for placing signs along the route to indicate this memorial designation.
Additionally, the bill outlines provisions for memorializing individual peace officers, law enforcement officers, or canine officers who have been killed in the line of duty. The department is required to consult with the families and associates of these officers to designate up to one mile of the highway for this purpose. Furthermore, the bill allows the department to accept donations for the placement of signs, with any donated funds being appropriated on a continuing basis to support the initiative.
