Bill > S01489

This bill designates a specific bridge on state route 159 in Rotterdam, Schenectady County, New York, as the "John M. Grassia III Memorial Bridge". The proposed legislation amends the highway law to officially name the bridge located between Kellar Avenue and South Thompson Street in honor of John M. Grassia III. The New York State Department of Transportation is required to install and maintain appropriate signage to mark the bridge with its new commemorative name. However, the bill specifies that this designation is ceremonial in nature and will not alter the official infrastructure or cause any disruption to local commerce. The act is set to take effect immediately upon passage, providing a lasting memorial to John M. Grassia III by recognizing him through the naming of this local transportation infrastructure.
