Dear Representative Francis:
SUBJECT: Fiscal Note for HB 2029 by Representative Penn, et al.
In accordance with KSA 75-3715a, the following fiscal note concerning HB 2029 is
respectfully submitted to your committee.
HB 2029 would designate the portion of K-5 Highway, from the junction of K-5 Highway
and North 18th Street in Wyandotte County then west on K-5 Highway to the junction of North
38th Street, as the Representative Marvin S Robinson II Memorial Highway. The bill would
require the Kansas Department of Transportation (KDOT) to place signs to indicate the
designation.

Page 2—HB 2029
KDOT estimates that it would cost $16,260 to manufacture and install two signs for the
highway designated in the bill ($8,130 per sign). However, current law requires that sufficient
gifts and donations be received by KDOT prior to installing the signs to reimburse the agency for
the initial cost, plus an additional 50.0 percent of the initial cost to defray future sign maintenance.
Altogether, $24,390 would be needed from donations to install the signs. KDOT indicates
implementation of the bill would require an increase of $16,260 to the expenditure limitation for
the agency operations account in FY 2026. Any fiscal effect associated with HB 2029 is not
reflected in The FY 2026 Governor’s Budget Report.
Sincerely,
Adam C. Proffitt
Director of the Budget
