ARIZONA STATE SENATE
Fifty-Seventh Legislature, First Regular Session
FACT SHEET FOR S.C.M. 1001
Donald J. Trump highway
Purpose
Urges the Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) to rename State Route (SR) 260
as the Donald J. Trump Highway.
Background
ADOT is responsible for the design and construction of state public transportation systems
and the maintenance and operation of state highways in Arizona (A.R.S. § 28-332). ADOT may
contract and do all things necessary to secure the full benefits available to Arizona for
transportation purposes under federal law. ADOT may cooperate with: 1) federal, state and local
government agencies; 2) Indian tribes; 3) private and public organizations; and 4) private
individuals. ADOT may exchange federal monies with local governments in order to receive local
monies and may include additional federal monies in the exchange to offset the matching costs
required of local governments (A.R.S. § 28-334).
Originally known as the General Crook Trail, SR 260 is 193-miles long, stretching from
Heber to Eager, Arizona (ADOT).
There is no anticipated fiscal impact to the state General Fund associated with this
legislation.
Provisions
1. Urges ADOT to designate SR 260 as the Donald J. Trump Highway and approve, place and
maintain appropriate signage identifying the designated highway.
2. Directs the Secretary of State to transmit a copy of this memorial to the Director of ADOT.
