Plain-language change summary

The updated version of Assembly Bill 603 now includes specific language directing the Wisconsin Department of Transportation to put up and keep two highway signs near Racine County. These signs will feature the names "The Prairie School" and "Wind Point Lighthouse." This change matters because it officially designates these locations, making them more recognizable to travelers and promoting local landmarks.
