Dedicates a portion of the state highway system to Clara H. Barton
This bill designates a specific segment of State Route 63 in Dansville, Livingston County, as a ceremonial tribute to Clara H. Barton. While the legislation requires the state to install signs honoring Barton along this stretch of road, it explicitly states that the official name of the highway will not change to prevent confusion or disrupt traffic. The act takes effect immediately upon passage, ensuring the dedication remains a symbolic gesture rather than a functional rebranding of the route.

MINOR
The bill was amended to remove the phrase 'American Red Cross' from the dedication of a state highway, changing the title and signage to honor Clara H. Barton individually. This change likely reflects a desire to separate the dedication from the organization or update the text to match current naming conventions.
Scope change
The scope of the dedication remains the same (State Route 63 in Dansville), but the specific entity being honored was narrowed from the American Red Cross organization to its founder, Clara H. Barton.
REQUIREMENT
The official title of the dedicated highway section was changed from 'American Red Cross Founder Clara H. Barton' to 'Clara H. Barton'.
The required signage text was updated to read 'Highway Dedicated to Clara H Barton' instead of including the American Red Cross name.
TECHNICAL
The bill's title and committee status were updated to reflect that the bill was amended, discharged from committee, and reprinted.
