To whom was referred a Concurrent Resolution (S. 573), to request the Department of Transportation to name Road S-14-547 in Clarendon County, etc., respectfully

That they have duly and carefully considered the same, and recommend that the same do pass:

RICHARD M. QUINN, JR., for Committee.

TO REQUEST THE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION TO NAME ROAD S-14-547 IN CLARENDON COUNTY BETWEEN HIGHWAY 260 AND ROAD S-14-25 AS "JOSEPH LEMON AND DINGLE ROAD" IN HONOR OF THE LATE JOSEPH LEMON AND TO PLACE APPROPRIATE MARKERS OR SIGNS ON THIS ROAD REFLECTING THE DESIGNATION.

Whereas, the late Joseph Lemon was a widely respected community and civil rights leader in Clarendon County and the State of South Carolina; and

Whereas, he touched the lives of thousands of people including many young people who have a better education and more opportunities today because of him; and

Whereas, it is entirely fitting that Road S-14-547 which runs in front of the historic Lemon home be named in honor of this outstanding man and that appropriate markers or signs be placed thereon reflecting this designation. Now, therefore,

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

That the members of the General Assembly, by this resolution, request the Department of Transportation to name Road S-14-547 in Clarendon County between Highway 260 and Road S-14-25 as "Joseph Lemon and Dingle Road" in honor of the late Joseph Lemon and to place appropriate markers or signs on this road reflecting the designation.

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