TITLE OF BILL:

An act to amend the highway law, in relation to designating a portion of
the state highway system as the "Lieutenant Donald R. Hill Memorial
Highway"

 
PURPOSE OR GENERAL IDEA OF BILL:

The purpose of this bill is to designate a portion of the state highway
system in Oswego, NY as the "Lieutenant Donald R. Hill Memorial High-
way."

 
SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS:

Section 1 of this bill would amend the Highway Law by adding a new
section that designates a position of state route 104, between City Line
Road and Jim Shampine Drive in the City of Oswego, County of Oswego, to
be known as the "Lieutenant Donald R. Hill Memorial Highway."

Section 2 of this bill would amend the Highway Law by excepting a
portion of the state highway designated as the "Lake Ontario Wine
Trail."

Section 3 of this bill would provide parameters for the Commissioner of
Transportation related to the installation and maintenance of adequate
signage of the designated memorial highway and require that the desig-
nation shall be ceremonial in nature and the official name of such high-
way shall not be changed.

Section 4 of this bill provides that the effective date shall take
effect immediately.

 
JUSTIFICATION:

Lieutenant Donald R. Hill, born July 6th, 1952, resided at 244 Munn St.
in the City of Oswego and was 43 at the time that he was killed in the
line of duty. Lt. Hill was appointed to the Oswego Police Department on
September 10th, 1975 and was planning on a near retirement, after serv-
ing more than 20 years with the department.

On November 11th, 1995, Lieutenant Hill was one of two officers direct-
ing traffic for an overtime detail on State Route 104 East when he was
struck by a vehicle and died from injuries sustained in the accident.

Lt. Hill was known for his cheerful, calm, even-mannered personality.

Lt. Hill was a well-respected husband, father, and police officer.

This dedication will serve not only to honor the life and legacy of Lt.
Hill, but to also serve as a reminder to motorists of the need to take
caution on our roadways. This bill would designate a portion of State
Route 104 between City Line Road and Jim Shampine Drive in the City of
Oswego as the "Lieutenant Donald R. Hill Memorial Highway"
