The bill, S. 490, is a Senate Resolution that congratulates the city of Westminster, South Carolina, on the occasion of its 150th anniversary. The resolution acknowledges the city's incorporation on March 17, 1875, and highlights its historical development, including the establishment of its first house and store, as well as its growth into a commercial hub centered around the railroad. The resolution also notes the significance of major textile mills in the area, particularly Beacon Mill, which was a key employer for many years.
In addition to celebrating the city's milestone, the resolution commends the citizens of Westminster for their dedicated service to both the local community and the state of South Carolina. The resolution concludes with a directive to present a copy to the mayor of Westminster, Brian Ramey, as a formal recognition of this important anniversary.
