To whom was referred a Concurrent Resolution (H. 5380) to request that the Department of Transportation name the Interstate Highway 26 and South Carolina Highway S-36-32 (Jalapa Road) Interchange in Newberry County, etc., respectfully

A CONCURRENT RESOLUTION

TO REQUEST THAT THE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION NAME THE INTERSTATE HIGHWAY 26 AND SOUTH CAROLINA HIGHWAY S-36-32 (JALAPA ROAD) INTERCHANGE IN NEWBERRY COUNTY AS THE "SENATOR BOB LAKE INTERCHANGE" IN RECOGNITION OF THE DISTINGUISHED PUBLIC SERVICE OF THE HONORABLE ROBERT C. LAKE, JR., AND TO REQUEST THE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION ERECT APPROPRIATE SIGNS OR MARKERS REFLECTING THIS DESIGNATION.

Whereas, the Honorable Robert C. Lake, Jr., was elected to the South Carolina Senate in November of 1968, and served with great distinction in that body for sixteen years. During his tenure in the Senate, he served as Chair of the Senate Ethics Committee and as Vice Chair of the Joint Appropriations Review Committee; and

Whereas, a passionate advocate of the interests of Newberry County, Senator Lake provided enlightened and thoughtful leadership to the county government and public schools, and assisted with the recruitment of new industry and the establishment of Dreher Island State Park at Lake Murray; and

Whereas, the leadership of Senator Lake has been particularly influential in higher education in the Palmetto State, as seen in his service as vice chair, member, and emeritus member of the Board of Trustees of the Medical University of South Carolina and was a member of the Winthrop University Board of Trustees; and

Whereas, it is fitting and proper that the Interstate Highway 26 and South Carolina Highway S-36-32 (Jalapa Road) Interchange in Newberry County be named the "Senator Bob Lake Interchange" in recognition of his distinguished public service to this State. Now, therefore,

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

That the members of the General Assembly, by this resolution, request the Department of Transportation to name the Interstate Highway 26 and South Carolina Highway S-36-32 (Jalapa Road) Interchange in Newberry County as the "Senator Bob Lake Interchange" in recognition of the distinguished public service of the Honorable Robert C. Lake, Jr., and request the Department of Transportation erect appropriate signs or markers reflecting this designation.
