TO REQUEST THAT THE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION NAME THE INTERSECTION LOCATED AT THE JUNCTURE OF CAMP ROAD AND DILLS BLUFF ROAD ON JAMES ISLAND IN CHARLESTON COUNTY "LEONARD BLANK INTERSECTION" AND ERECT APPROPRIATE MARKERS OR SIGNS AT THIS INTERSECTION THAT CONTAIN THIS DESIGNATION.

Whereas, Mr. Blank is married to the former Pam Schumacher and together they are the proud parents of three children and have six grandchildren; and

Whereas, he was elected and served two terms on the James Island Town Council. He is currently the chairman of the James Island Planning and Zoning Committee; and

Whereas, Mr. Blank is a faithful member of Christ St. Paul's Episcopal Church; and

Whereas, it would be fitting and proper to recognize Mr. Leonard Blank's unselfish service to his county and commitment to his community by naming an intersection in his honor. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives, the Senate concurring:

That the members of the General Assembly request that the Department of Transportation name the intersection located at the juncture of Camp Road and Dills Bluff Road on James Island in Charleston County "Leonard Blank Intersection" and erect appropriate markers or signs at this intersection that contain this designation.
