Bill > A06661

This bill dedicates a specific portion of state route 14 in Yates County, New York, as a memorial to Sergeant James S. Hayes. The dedicated section spans from its intersection with Plum Point Road in the town of Milo to its intersection with state route 54 (Main Street) in the village of Dresden. The New York State Department of Transportation is required to install and maintain highway signs that read "Highway Dedicated to Sergeant James S Hayes", though the official highway designation will remain unchanged. The bill emphasizes that this is a ceremonial dedication designed to honor Sergeant Hayes, and it is intended to avoid any potential commercial disruption or confusion. The legislation will take effect immediately upon passage, allowing for prompt recognition of Sergeant Hayes's service.
