HCR 30 West Virginia House of Delegates · 2025 Regular Session

Pastor Roger D. Stewart and Brenda Runion Stewart Memorial Bridge

HCR 30 is a concurrent resolution requesting the West Virginia Division of Highways rename Coon Branch Bridge (Bridge No. 55-009/04-006.66) in Wyoming County as the "Pastor Roger D. Stewart and Brenda Runion Stewart Memorial Bridge." It commemorates Pastor Roger D. Stewart's life and ministry, including his service at the Campus Church of God in Cyclone, WV, and his family. The resolution directs the Division of Highways to install signs identifying the bridge with this name. This is a symbolic memorial resolution, not a policy bill affecting laws or regulations.

What changed between versions

Introduced Version → Committee Substitute · 3 edits

MINOR

The bill was amended from its introduced version to a committee substitute version, primarily adding a provision to rename the memorial bridge to include Brenda Runion Stewart's name only after her passing, and updating state references to spell out 'West Virginia' instead of using the state abbreviation.

Scope change

The bill's scope was expanded to include a conditional renaming provision that will take effect upon Brenda Runion Stewart's death, rather than naming both individuals immediately.

TIMELINE

Added a new clause specifying that the bridge will be renamed to include Brenda Runion Stewart's name only after she passes away, with corresponding sign updates at that time.

TECHNICAL

Changed references from 'WV' to 'West Virginia' in the biographical clauses for consistency and formality.

Removed the original reference to the bill being introduced on February 14, 2025, and replaced it with committee origin and reporting dates from March 20, 2025.
