Dedicates a portion of the state highway system to Chief Hugh (Chaim) Jacobson
This bill designates a specific stretch of State Route 306 in Ramapo, Rockland County, as the Chief Hugh (Chaim) Jacobson Memorial Highway to honor him. The legislation requires the Department of Transportation to install signs identifying the road with this dedication while explicitly stating that the official street name will not change. This measure is intended as a ceremonial tribute rather than a functional rebranding to ensure there is no confusion for drivers or disruption to commerce.
