A 7930 New York Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Dedicates a portion of the state highway system to Lieutenant Donald R. Hill

This bill (A 7930) formally dedicates a specific segment of State Route 104 in Oswego (from City Line Road to Jim Shampine Drive) to honor Lieutenant Donald R. Hill. It requires the installation of ceremonial signage reading "Highway Dedicated to Lieutenant Donald R. Hill" but explicitly states this is a non-binding recognition - no official highway name change occurs. The dedication is purely symbolic, with no impact on transportation operations or commerce. The bill takes effect immediately upon enactment.

MINOR

The bill was amended to change the language from designating a highway as a 'Memorial Highway' to dedicating it to Lieutenant Donald R. Hill. The specific route description was updated to use 'from its intersection' instead of 'between', and the signing requirement now specifies the exact text to appear on signs. These changes clarify the ceremonial nature of the dedication while maintaining the original intent of honoring Lieutenant Hill.

Scope change

The bill's scope remains the same - it still applies to State Route 104 in Oswego County - but the terminology was refined from 'designation' to 'dedication' to better reflect the ceremonial purpose.

DEFINITION

Changed the section title from 'Lieutenant Donald R. Hill Memorial Highway' to 'Portion of the state highway system to be dedicated to Lieutenant Donald R. Hill' to reflect the ceremonial nature of the honor.

REQUIREMENT

Updated the route description from 'between City Line Road and Jim Shampine Drive' to 'from its intersection with City Line Road to its intersection with Jim Shampine Drive' for greater precision.

Added specific signage language requirement stating signs must read 'Highway Dedicated to Lieutenant Donald R Hill'.
