State Needs Beauty Law Or Nevada Faces Loss of Funds
Clair Christensen, chair of the Governor’s Committee on Beautification, urged passage of state highway beautification measures to meet the Federal Highway Beautification Act. The plan would require billboards to be 660 feet from rights of way and limit junk yards to 1,000 feet from highways. If adopted, Nevada could receive about 120 million dollars in federal highway funds for projects including rest stops on major interstates.
