MINOR
The bill was converted from an original draft to an enrolled version, which involves significant formatting and structural changes but no substantive policy modifications. The core purpose remains to commend Pastor Joshua Joy Dara, Sr. for his 30th pastoral anniversary at Zion Hill Church. The text was reorganized to include standard enrolled headers, remove internal drafting notes, and adjust line breaks for official printing.
TECHNICAL
The document structure was updated to reflect the official enrolled format, including the addition of 'ENROLLED' headers and the removal of the 'DIGEST' section and internal page markers.
Line breaks and paragraph spacing were adjusted throughout the resolution text to comply with official legislative formatting standards for enrolled bills.
The 'DIGEST' section, which provides a non-binding summary of the bill's intent, was removed as it is not part of the final legal text.
