Bill > S06829

This bill dedicates a specific bridge on Interstate 88 (I-88) in Rotterdam, Schenectady County, New York to CW2 John M. Grassia III. The bridge, which carries the state route seven connector (also known as Becker Road) over I-88, will be ceremonially honored through the installation of a sign that reads "Bridge Dedicated to CW2 John M Grassia III". The New York State Department of Transportation will be responsible for installing and maintaining the commemorative signage. Importantly, the bill specifies that this dedication is purely ceremonial and will not formally change the bridge's official name or cause any disruption to local commerce. The legislation appears to be a way to honor a specific individual (likely a military servicemember, as suggested by the "CW2" title, which typically stands for Chief Warrant Officer 2) by recognizing their service or contribution through this highway memorial. The act is set to take effect immediately upon passage.
