MINOR

The bill was amended to refine the geographic scope of the highway dedication. The original version dedicated a portion of State Route 31-A from Powerline Road to State Route 98 in Orleans County. The revised version adds 'in the town of Albion' to specify the exact location, ensuring the dedication applies only to that specific segment within Albion, Orleans County.

Scope change

The scope of the highway dedication was narrowed by adding a specific town boundary (Albion) to define the exact portion of State Route 31-A being dedicated.

SCOPE

Added 'in the town of Albion' to Section 1 to precisely define the geographic segment of State Route 31-A being dedicated to Specialist Jason Johnston.
