DE SB138

Repeals § 193 of Title 17 of the Delaware Code, which established the Delaware Byway Advisory Board.

Eliminates the Board's statutory duties to assist in and make recommendations regarding the designation, development, operation, management, and promotion of Delaware byways.

Board was originally formed in 2000 and met regularly through 2005 but has not met since, with its last known meeting in 2005.

Six byways were designated in Delaware between 2002 and 2010, and the Delaware Byways Program no longer accepts applications for new byways; existing byways are self-governed by local corridor management organizations.

Termination recommended by the Joint Legislative Oversight and Sunset Committee with support from the Department of Transportation, finding the Board no longer fulfills a state need or meets its statutory duties.
