TO REQUEST THE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION TO NAME A CERTAIN HIGHWAY IN FAIRFIELD COUNTY IN HONOR OF BENJAMIN F. HORNSBY, A DISTINGUISHED BUSINESS AND CIVIC LEADER OF FAIRFIELD COUNTY AND A FORMER MEMBER OF THE SOUTH CAROLINA GENERAL ASSEMBLY.
Whereas, the honorable Benjamin F. Hornsby was a widely respected business and civic leader in Fairfield County who also served with great distinction as a member of the South Carolina General Assembly in the Senate from 1961-1964 and in the House of Representatives from 1973-1982; and
Whereas, the members of the General Assembly believe that it would be a fitting tribute to this outstanding South Carolinian if the Department of Transportation were to name a particular highway in Fairfield County in his honor. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the House of Representatives, the Senate concurring:
That the members of the General Assembly hereby request the Department of Transportation to name Highway 269 in Fairfield County from the Highway 321 intersection through the Greenbrier and Rion communities to the Richland/Fairfield County line in honor of Benjamin F. Hornsby and to erect appropriate markers reflecting this designation.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to the Department of Transportation.
