Bill > S01949

This bill dedicates a specific portion of the state highway system in Rockland County, New York, to honor Hector L. Soto. Specifically, the legislation identifies the segment of United States Route 202 from its intersection with Rosman Road to its intersection with State Route 45 in the town of Haverstraw as the highway to be ceremonially dedicated to Soto. The New York State Department of Transportation is required to install and maintain signage that reads "Highway Dedicated to Hector L Soto" along this route. Importantly, the bill emphasizes that this is a ceremonial designation only, meaning the official road name and addressing will not change, which helps prevent potential disruptions to commerce or mail delivery. The act is set to take effect immediately upon passage, allowing for prompt recognition of Hector L. Soto through this highway dedication.
