The bill H. 3840 is a concurrent resolution introduced in the South Carolina General Assembly to honor Thomas Lee Read by naming the intersection of Harborview Road and Fort Sumter Drive on James Island in Charleston County as the "Thomas Lee Read Memorial Intersection." The resolution outlines Read's significant contributions to the community, including his leadership as an Eagle Scout, his service in the United States Army, and his pivotal role in the development of James Island through his work in real estate and community service. It highlights his dedication to family, his professional achievements, and his passion for photography.
The resolution requests that the South Carolina Department of Transportation erect appropriate signs or markers at the designated intersection to commemorate Read's legacy. It emphasizes the importance of recognizing individuals who have made lasting impacts on their communities, and it concludes with a directive to forward a copy of the resolution to the Department of Transportation for implementation.
