HCR 10 West Virginia House of Delegates · 2025 Regular Session

USMC PFC Robert Thomas Taylor Memorial Road

HCR 10 is a memorial resolution requesting the West Virginia Division of Highways name a specific 1.5-mile segment of Knobley Road in Mineral County (between U.S. Route 50 and WV Route 9, ending at WV Route 18) as the "U.S. Marine Corps PFC Robert Thomas Taylor Memorial Road." It directs the Division of Highways to install signs at both ends of the road segment to identify the memorial. The resolution commemorates PFC Robert Thomas Taylor, a Marine who died in Vietnam in 1969, and has no substantive policy impact beyond this naming request. This is a procedural memorial resolution, not a law creating new obligations.
