COMMITTEE REPORT
April 2, 1998
H. 4710
S. Printed 4/2/98--S.
Read the first time March 25, 1998.
To whom was referred a Concurrent Resolution (H. 4710), to request the Department of Transportation to designate and name a portion of East Farley Avenue located in the City of Laurens as the "Isaac White Avenue", etc., respectfully
That they have duly and carefully considered the same, and recommend that the same do pass:
JOHN C. LAND, III, for Committee.
TO REQUEST THE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION TO DESIGNATE AND NAME A PORTION OF EAST FARLEY AVENUE LOCATED IN THE CITY OF LAURENS AS THE "ISAAC WHITE AVENUE" IN HONOR OF ISAAC WHITE, A LONG-TIME EDUCATOR AND COMMUNITY LEADER, AND TO ERECT APPROPRIATE SIGNS TO THAT EFFECT.
Whereas, Isaac White has made substantial contributions to public education and has been a devoted community advocate; and
Whereas, Isaac White has been widely respected in Laurens County for many years and is known for his caring attitude and commitment to community improvement; and
Whereas, the General Assembly believes it would be a fitting tribute to this distinguished South Carolinian if the Department of Transportation named a portion of East Farley Avenue, located in the City of Laurens, in honor of this outstanding and giving man and that appropriate signs be placed on the avenue reflecting this designation. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the House of Representatives, the Senate concurring:
That the members of the General Assembly of the State of South Carolina request the Department of Transportation to designate and name a portion of East Farley Avenue located in the City of Laurens as the "Isaac White Avenue" in honor of Isaac White, a long-time educator and community leader, and to erect appropriate signs to that effect.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to Mr. Isaac White and the Department of Transportation.
