Highway To Be Named For Well-known Resident

Fairhope, Alabama 

 

New 'Rep. Joe Faust Highway'


 

Rep. Faust

 

'REP. JOE FAUST HIGHWAY'

Highway 181 between Hwy 104 and CR 32 in east Fairhope is being named in honor of former state representative/county commissioner Joe Faust, a lifelong resident of Fairhope.

During the just-completed session, the state legislature passed  HJR 246, local legislation sponsored by current Baldwin county Reps. Simpson, Givens, Fidler, and Holk-Jones:

"Whereas it is with the highest accolade that this body honors ... former state representative Joe Faust by requesting the Department of Transportation designate State Route 181 ... from SR 104 to CR 32 ... as the Representative Joe Faust Highway."

An official naming-ceremony is to be held there when the new highway signs are ready for installation.


Resolution.

20+ years in Montgomery and the number of sponsored bills is staggering. Joe’s fight for his constituents is legendary, I hear they are memorializing the recliner he kept in his office.

Don't be mean. He was pretty sick in later years.
