Modifies provisions relating to the highways and transportation commission

HB 1384 modifies the appointment and leadership structure of the state's highways and transportation commission. It requires governors to appoint members with no more than half from the same political party and ensures representation from each congressional district, preventing multiple members from the same district. The bill establishes a leadership rotation system where the two most senior members from opposing parties alternate as chair and vice chair annually. It also sets a $25 daily compensation rate for commission duties and requires commissioners to be state taxpayers and residents for at least five years prior to appointment. The changes apply to current and future commission terms, including rules for filling vacancies and reappointments.
