HCR 60 West Virginia House of Delegates · 2025 Regular Session

Janice Cosco Memorial Bridge Longest Serving Marion County Clerk

HCR 60 is a commemorative resolution naming Pleasant Valley Bridge (Bridge Number 25-079/00-135.62) in Marion County as the "Janice L. Cosco Memorial Bridge." It honors Janice L. Cosco, who served as Marion County Clerk for 39 years (1981-2020), making her the county’s longest-serving clerk. The resolution requests the Division of Highways install signage identifying the bridge with this name and a secondary sign stating "Marion County's Longest Serving Clerk." As a naming resolution, it has no substantive policy impact beyond memorializing her public service.

What changed between versions

Introduced Version Committee Substitute · 3 edits
MINOR
This bill was amended to correct a highway designation error and expand the geographic specificity of the memorial bridge's location. The primary substantive change is replacing 'IS 079' with 'I-79' to accurately identify the interstate highway the bridge carries over. Additionally, the bill's origin was clarified to show it originated in the Committee on Energy and Public Works rather than being referred to that committee.
Scope change
The bill's scope remains unchanged as it still requests the naming of a single specific bridge in Marion County, but the highway reference was corrected for accuracy.
TECHNICAL

Corrected highway designation from 'IS 079' to 'I-79' to accurately identify the interstate highway the bridge carries.

Expanded 'West Virginia' spelling in the biographical section for consistency and clarity.

TIMELINE

Updated bill history to reflect that the resolution originated in the Committee on Energy and Public Works and was reported on March 13, 2025, rather than being referred to the committee on February 20, 2025.
