IN RE: | HB1272 by Phillips (Relating to the designation of State Highway 289 as the Preston Trail Highway.), As Engrossed |
The bill would require the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) to design, construct, and erect highway markers designating State Highway 289 as the Preston Trail Highway.
Section 225.021 (c), Transportation Code, specifies that TxDOT is not required to design, construct, or erect the marker unless a grant or donation of funds is made to the department to cover the cost. Therefore, it is assumed any duties associated with the implementation of the provisions of the bill could be absorbed within the agency's existing resources.
