MODERATE

The bill was revised to streamline the legislative process by updating committee reporting status and consolidating the list of infrastructure naming requests. The primary substantive change involves the addition of several new memorial requests for roads and bridges, while some previously listed requests were removed or modified to correct specific details like coordinates and military ranks. These changes ensure the resolution accurately reflects the current list of individuals and locations the Legislature intends to honor.

Scope change

The scope of the bill was expanded to include additional infrastructure naming requests for new memorials, while the scope of previously included requests was narrowed or corrected to reflect accurate data.

SCOPE

Added new requests to name specific bridges and roads in honor of individuals such as the Statler brothers, Blake brothers, and Fire Chief Benny Filiaggi III.

Added a new request to rename a section of WV Route 61 in Kanawha and Fayette Counties as the 'Fire Chief Benny Filiaggi III Memorial Highway'.

Added a new request to name a bridge in Bloomingrose, Boone County, as the 'Sgt. Jason Eugene Spurlock Memorial Bridge'.

TECHNICAL

Removed several specific naming requests that were present in the previous version, likely due to being superseded or corrected in the new version.

Corrected specific details in existing requests, such as changing a bridge name from 'Donald Tiny Lucas' to 'Donald Tiny Lucas and Ronald Dale Lucas' and updating military ranks for several individuals.

Updated the committee reporting history to reflect that the bill was reported from the Committee on Rules rather than originating in the Committee on Energy and Public Works.
