A concurrent RESOLUTION

TO REQUEST THAT THE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION NAME the portion of SC 46 from S-97 (Epps Avenue) to I-95 in Jasper County "Mayor Bronco Bostick Highway" AND ERECT APPROPRIATE MARKERS OR SIGNS AT THIS LOCATION CONTAINING THE DESIGNATION.

Whereas, a native of Hardeeville, Mr. Bostick was born on March 23, 1965, and he is an alumnus of the University of South Carolina-Beaufort. He received a degree in Fire Science and Public Administration; and

Whereas, Mr. Bostick is a retired civil service supervisor who served as the first African American mayor in Jasper County. He was elected mayor of Hardeeville in 2008, where he served until 2016; and

Whereas, Mr. Bostick's work history spans thirty-four years, with experience in city, county, state, and federal government agencies; and

Whereas, a decorated military veteran, Mr. Bostick remains heavily involved in the community through the Hardeeville Youth Commission, Friends of the Library, and the Jasper County Chamber of Commerce; and

Whereas, currently, Mr. Bostick serves as vice chairman of the Jasper County Transportation Committee; and

Whereas, it would be only fitting and proper to pay tribute to this son of South Carolina by naming a portion of road in the State in his honor. Now, therefore,

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

That the members of the South Carolina General Assembly, by this resolution, request that the Department of Transportation name the portion of SC 46 from S-97 (Epps Avenue) to I-95 in Jasper County "Mayor Bronco Bostick Highway" and erect appropriate markers or signs at this location containing the designation.

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