             HB 411 MOUNTAIN VIEW ROAD - GUSTAVUS                            
                                                                               
 CHAIRMAN RIEGER introduced    HB 411  as the next order of business.        
                                                                               
 REPRESENTATIVE MACKIE, Prime Sponsor, explained that Alaska statute           
 requires that highway names be done by legislation.  This is a                
 community project which has been consistently called Mountain View            
 Road   since the 1950s.  Representative Mackie received a petition          
 from Gustavus to officially name the road Mountain View Road.    Thi        
 summer the road is being upgraded and the cost of the signs will be           
 included, there will not be a fiscal impact to the state.                     
 Representative Mackie did not know of any opposition in the                   
 community.                                                                    
                                                                               
 SENATOR TAYLOR moved that HB 411 be moved out of committee with               
 individual recommendations.  Hearing no objections, it was so                 
 ordered.
