COMMITTEE REPORT

April 5, 2000

S. 1284

Introduced by Senators J. Verne Smith, Thomas, Bryan, Fair and Anderson

S. Printed 4/5/00--H.

Read the first time March 29, 2000.

To whom was referred a Concurrent Resolution (S. 1284), to request that the Department of Transportation name the replacement overpass bridge that crosses the Norfolk-Southern Railroad tracks on Suber Road in the City of Greer, etc., respectfully

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

RONALD N. FLEMING, for Committee.

TO REQUEST THAT THE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION NAME THE REPLACEMENT OVERPASS BRIDGE THAT CROSSES THE NORFOLK-SOUTHERN RAILROAD TRACKS ON SUBER ROAD IN THE CITY OF GREER IN HONOR OF THE HONORABLE LEWIS RAYMOND VAUGHN AND TO ERECT APPROPRIATE MARKERS OR SIGNS REFLECTING THIS DESIGNATION.

Whereas, The Honorable Lewis Raymond Vaughn was first elected to represent Greenville County in the South Carolina House of Representatives in 1988 and has continuously served his constituents with distinction from that date to the present; and

Whereas, since 1995, he has served as Chairman of the Greenville County Legislative Delegation and as Chairman of the House Operations and Management Committee; and

Whereas, for the past forty-five years he has been faithfully married to his wife, Lila; and

Whereas, Representative Vaughn is deeply committed to providing a quality education to all children in South Carolina and addressing both the needs of Greenville County and those of our great State; and

Whereas, Representative Vaughn has devoted considerable time and effort toward successfully securing funding and the construction of a much needed replacement overpass bridge along Suber Road in the City of Greer that crosses Norfolk-Southern Railroad tracks; and

Whereas, because of his many years of service to Greenville County and the State of South Carolina, it is appropriate and fitting to name this 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 requests that the Department of Transportation name the replacement overpass bridge on Suber Road in the City of Greer that crosses Norfolk-Southern Railroad tracks in honor of The Honorable Lewis Raymond Vaughn and to erect appropriate markers or signs reflecting this designation.

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