TO REQUEST THE SOUTH CAROLINA DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION TO NAME THE HIGHWAY 703 CAUSEWAY IN CHARLESTON COUNTY, FROM SULLIVAN'S ISLAND TO THE BEN SAWYER BRIDGE, IN HONOR OF LOUIS STITH, SR., AND TO ERECT APPROPRIATE MARKERS OR SIGNS AT BOTH ENDS OF THE CAUSEWAY CONTAINING THE WORDS "LOUIS STITH SR. MEMORIAL CAUSEWAY".
Whereas, the late Louis Stith, Sr., spent a lifetime serving the Town of Sullivan's Island and surrounding communities, the State of South Carolina, and this nation; and
Whereas, the members of the General Assembly consider it both appropriate and a privilege to recognize those vital contributions and his lifetime of service by naming the Highway 703 Causeway in Charleston County, between the point at which it leaves Sullivan's Island and the beginning of the Ben Sawyer Bridge, the "Louis Stith Sr. Memorial Causeway". Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the Senate, the House of Representatives concurring:
That the members of the General Assembly of the State of South Carolina, by this resolution, request the South Carolina Department of Transportation to name the Highway 703 Causeway in Charleston County from Sullivan's Island to the Ben Sawyer Bridge in honor of Louis Stith, Sr., and to erect appropriate markers or signs at both ends of the causeway containing the words "Louis Stith Sr. Memorial Causeway".
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to Mayor J. Marshall Stith of Sullivan's Island and the South Carolina Department of Transportation.
