HB 1054: A BILL for an Act to create and enact section 24-01-12.4 of the North Dakota Century Code, relating to sponsorship agreements for highway related services within highway right of way.

HB 1054 proposed creating a new section in North Dakota law (24-01-12.4) to establish rules for private companies sponsoring highway-related services (like maintenance or signage) within state highway right-of-way areas. It would directly affect private contractors and businesses seeking to fund such services in exchange for naming rights or other agreements. The bill aimed to provide a clear legal framework for these sponsorship agreements but failed to pass in the legislature on January 14, 2025, with only 3 votes in favor out of 93 total. The bill was referred to the Transportation Committee but was ultimately rejected.

HB 1190: A BILL for an Act to create and enact a new section to chapter 24-01 of the North Dakota Century Code, relating to the creation of the fallen military service members bridge committee; and to provide a continuing appropriation.

HB 1190 proposed creating a committee to name bridges and overpasses in North Dakota in honor of military service members who died while serving. The committee would review public nominations annually, select up to six locations each October, and coordinate with veterans groups and families for signage and dedication. The bill specified the committee would include the transportation director, adjutant general, and veterans affairs commissioner, with the transportation department providing administrative support. This bill, which was introduced but later withdrawn in January 2025, did not change existing laws but would have established a process for honoring fallen military members through infrastructure naming.
