Sponsor Senator Rodriguez described the bill as authorizing “the Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles to create a new specialty license plate for Miami Dade College,” and said, “The annual use fee for the plate is $25. Proceeds of the sale of the Miami Dade College specialty license plate will be distributed to the Miami Dade College Foundation … to fund student scholarships. The DHSMV estimates programming and implementation of the plate will cost $8,280.”

The committee considered Amendment 922794, offered by Senator Desigle, which “creates a specialty license plate for St. Pete College,” and a subsequent substitute amendment that, the committee recorded, “clarifies some of the percentages for administrative costs, marketing promotion, student scholarships, and then student success initiative.” The substitute amendment was adopted by voice vote and the bill as amended was advanced.

No public appearance forms or additional testimony were recorded on the bill in the committee minutes. Committee members waived close and the clerk conducted a roll call; the chair announced CS/CS/SB 620 was “reported favorably.”

Key details recorded in committee: the plate’s annual use fee is $25; proceeds are directed to the Miami Dade College Foundation for student scholarships; the Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles (DHSMV) estimated an $8,280 expense for programming and implementation. The substitute amendment added a St. Pete College plate and adjusted percentage allocations among administrative costs, marketing/promotion, student scholarships and a student success initiative. The committee did not record dissenting votes at the final roll call.

The bill now moves from the committee record for further consideration under the Senate’s legislative process.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Appropriations Committee on Transportation, Tourism and Economic Development 3/18/2025","oneSentenceSummary","At a meeting of the Appropriations Committee on Transportation, Tourism, and Economic Development on Oct. 12, 2025, members voted to report CS/CS/SB 620, which creates a specialty license plate for Miami Dade College, favorably out of committee.","taxTitle","Appropriations Committee on Transportation, Tourism, and Economic Development, Standing Committees, Senate, Legislative, Florida","taxId",26940,"location","Florida","headline","shortSummary",{"_33":76,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":77,"_41":78,"_43":79,"_45":80,"_47":81,"_49":82,"_51":83,"_53":84,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":85,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":86,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":56,"_74":56},6126003,"Committee advances bill to name State Road 100 railroad overpass 'Heroes Memorial Overpass'",80,234000,314000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2674054-ccfe88f9c8194853ed80c095c3787ac0&start=234&end=314","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2674054-ccfe88f9c8194853ed80c095c3787ac0/thumbnail_234000.jpg","/articles/6126003/Florida/Committee-advances-bill-to-name-State-Road-100-railroad-overpass-Heroes-Memorial-Overpass","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6126003-129ebaba16079ae1ee193c6abbe0f383/orig.mp4?Expires=1771168696&Signature=jCUinBNqRNiaTXGhWkYs8dLTmKqpAIuxfIPCiOaLYgA7UCHYLMucKi9iUCj59dlYN~SwlU~dH0Q6jfXvEpyt7N3MJvLoIZCdvCVIkYj1nlv0LMddEV79mUdM3RbQzFlY5Zl4SmqKG5Fo2hiV8c2vBLgipYrb5fTfyhvBs6zKr5hRjPZPcM~-sxDdSbAhZ05vHK0AZh8UTJ0UOUx0kXeA98M21jazKVc5lsK8NfSJW6F~hEPqlrUz-2hk3vkXPYrLsnybbQlfMW9ICsTGSxFYIjKeokaJUT2nn64GnDb2jzfSszOwiNnOUqccjbbpMCP2Z~iSWvBK0ZdAxE~Ueht90w__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Appropriations Committee on Transportation, Tourism, and Economic Development voted to report Senate Bill 654 favorably on Oct. 12, 2025, a measure that would name a railroad overpass on State Road 100 in the city of Stark in Bradford County the “Heroes Memorial Overpass.”

Sponsor Senator Bradley said, “This bill designates the railroad overpass on State Road 100 in the city of Stark in Bradford County as the Heroes Memorial Overpass to honor those who have given their lives in service to others.” No appearance forms or public testimony were entered in the committee record on the measure.

There was no recorded debate on the bill; the sponsor closed and the clerk called the roll. The chair announced that Senate Bill 654 was reported favorably. The committee then adjourned.

The designation is honorary and the committee record does not show any appropriation or construction funding attached to the bill. With the committee’s favorable report, the bill proceeds through the Senate’s remaining procedural steps.","The committee reported Senate Bill 654 favorably.
