BILL NUMBER:S7739

TITLE OF BILL:
An act
to amend the highway law, in relation to the designation of the
"Sergeant Devin Snyder Memorial Highway"

PURPOSE:
To designate a portion of the interstate highway 390 as the "Sergeant
Devin Snyder Memorial Highway."

SUMMARY:
Section 1 amends the highway law by adding a new section, 343-z in
order that a portion of interstate highway 390 be designated as the
"Sergeant Devin Snyder Memorial Highway."

Section 2 directs the commissioner of the department of transportation
to provide for "Sergeant Devin Snyder Memorial Highway" signage.

Section 3 provides the enacting clause.

JUSTIFICATION:
This legislation would celebrate the late US Army Sgt. Devin A. Snyder
of Cohocton, Steuben County, who was killed June 4, 2011, while
serving in Afghanistan. She was the first female soldier from western
New York to die in the war and this designation would pay tribute to
her life and her service to our State and Country.

LEGISLATIVE HISTORY: New bill

FISCAL IMPLICATIONS:
None. Current project costs will cover the signage.

EFFECTIVE DATE:
This act shall take effect immediately.
