Dedicates portion of the state highway system to Detective Brian C. Mulkeen

MINOR
The bill was amended to change the language from designating a 'Memorial Bridge' to dedicating the bridge to the detective, removing the specific 'Memorial Bridge' title while keeping the dedication. The committee status was updated to reflect a favorable report and readiness for a third reading, and the document number was updated to reflect the amended version.
Scope change
The bill's scope shifted from creating a permanent legal name change for the bridge to a ceremonial dedication without altering the official name.
REQUIREMENT
Changed the statutory language from designating the bridge as the 'Detective Brian C. Mulkeen Memorial Bridge' to dedicating the bridge to Detective Brian C. Mulkeen.
Updated the signage requirement to state 'Highway Dedicated to Detective Brian C Mulkeen' instead of referencing a memorial bridge name.
TECHNICAL
Updated the bill title, committee status, and document number to reflect the amended version (S14A) and its progression through the legislative process.
