62. ADOPT A ROAD PROGRAM Approve and authorize the Maricopa County Department of Transportation to rebrand its current Adopt a Highway program, making it Adopt a Road, which will allow the program to be more distinctive to the Maricopa County transportation system and to develop procedures for the implementation of the program. The Maricopa County transportation system includes more than 21-hundred miles of paved arterial roadways and local streets. MCDOT has a direct interest in reducing litter on those roadways, and since 1990, has granted permission to individuals, families, and community organizations to adopt segments of the County roads deemed appropriate by the agency. Participating groups clean-up litter on those adopted segments at least two (2) times per year at no direct cost to the County. The groups are then acknowledged on recognition signs placed near the beginning of their adopted segment. Because the program is specific to the Maricopa County roadway system, and not the Arizona State highway system, MCDOT would like to rebrand the program from Adopt a Highway to Adopt a Road, separating it from any similar agency programs, and allowing MCDOT to promote and recruit more groups to participate in the County program.
