A CONCURRENT RESOLUTION

REQUESTING THE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION TO TAKE THE NECESSARY STEPS TO RENAME THE SAMPIT RIVER BRIDGE IN HONOR OF MR. SYLVAN L. ROSEN.

Whereas, Sylvan Rosen's selfless devotion to duty and charitable service to the citizens of Georgetown County is unparalleled; and

Whereas, he served as Mayor of Georgetown from 1948 to 1961 and it was during this administration that the town of Georgetown experienced unprecedented growth and implemented programs which still serve the citizens of Georgetown; and

Whereas, he served as county attorney for many years generously providing the citizens of Georgetown County valuable legal services without giving consideration to billing the county for these services even though he was entitled to compensation; and

Whereas, he served as attorney for the Georgetown County Water and Sewer District and District Highway Commissioner for many years; and

Whereas, he is truly a distinguished South Carolinian who has given most generously of his time and talents to the Georgetown community for many years, and it would be appropriate that his services be recognized by renaming the Sampit River Bridge in his honor. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the Senate, the House of Representatives concurring:

That the General Assembly of the State of South Carolina, by this resolution, requests the Department of Transportation to take the necessary steps to rename the Sampit River Bridge the Sylvan L. Rosen Bridge.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to the Department of Transportation.
