MINOR

The bill was finalized and signed into law, transitioning from a draft revision to an official act. The text was cleaned up to remove internal markup symbols and formatting codes used during the legislative process. Additionally, the list of sponsoring legislators was standardized into a single block, correcting a typo in one representative's name and ensuring all sponsors are listed clearly.

Scope change

No change in the bill's scope or applicability; the substantive policy regarding the highway dedication remains identical.

TECHNICAL

Removed internal legislative markup symbols (like line numbers, deletion indicators, and amendment shading notes) to produce the final clean text of the law.

Consolidated the list of House and Senate sponsors into a single continuous paragraph and corrected a typo in the name 'McCom1ick' to 'McCluskie'.

Added the official date of signing (April 13, 2026) and the signatures of the Speaker of the House and President of the Senate to certify the bill as law.
