INVITATIONS AND MEMORIAL RESOLUTIONS

To whom was referred a Concurrent Resolution (S. 502) to request that the Department of Transportation move a portion of the projected "Carolina Bays Parkway" in Horry County between Highway 544 and Highway 501 three hundred yards to the northwest, etc., respectfully

REPORT:

ROBERT W. LEACH, SR. for Committee.

            

A CONCURRENT RESOLUTION

TO REQUEST THAT THE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION MOVE A PORTION OF THE PROJECTED "CAROLINA BAYS PARKWAY" IN HORRY COUNTY BETWEEN HIGHWAY 544 AND HIGHWAY 501 THREE HUNDRED YARDS TO THE NORTHWEST TOWARDS CONWAY TO AVOID THE HUNTERS RIDGE COMMUNITY.

Whereas, the projected plans for the "Carolina Bays Parkway" provide that the parkway go through the Hunters Ridge community; and

Whereas, the Hunters Ridge community is immensely affected by the plans for the new parkway; and

Whereas, fourteen homes are in the direct path of the proposed parkway and are completely displaced by the plans for the parkway, and even the surrounding homes that are not in the direct path are adversely affected by a major roadway invading the neighborhood; and

Whereas, it is the sentiment of the citizens of the Hunters Ridge community and the members of the General Assembly that the projected "Carolina Bays Parkway" be moved three hundred yards to the northwest to avoid the devastating impact of the current proposed plan on the community. Now, therefore,

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

That the members of the General Assembly request that the Department of Transportation move a portion of the projected "Carolina Bays Parkway" in Horry County between Highway 544 and Highway 501 three hundred yards to the northwest towards Conway to avoid the Hunters Ridge community.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to the Department of Transportation.
