AB236,1,2 1An Act relating to: tourist-oriented directional signs for the state headquarters
2of the American Legion in Columbia County.
Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
Under current law, the department of transportation (DOT) erects
tourist-oriented directional signs to assist motorists traveling along highways.
Tourist-oriented directional signs provide identification of and directional
information for tourist-related businesses, services, or activities, which derive the
majority of their income or visitors during the normal business season from motorists
not residing in the immediate area where the business, service, or activity is located.
This bill requires DOT, upon receiving an application and applicable fees, to
erect two tourist-oriented directional signs along I 39 in Columbia County, for the
state headquarters of the American Legion, which is located near the I 39/USH 51
in the city of Portage.
For further information see the state fiscal estimate, which will be printed as
an appendix to this bill.
The people of the state of Wisconsin, represented in senate and assembly, do
enact as follows:
AB236, s. 1 3Section 1. Nonstatutory provisions.
