Plain-language change summary

The updated version of HCR 11 now formally names the bridge over Fields Creek in Kanawha County as the "Charleston Police Capt. Jerry D. Hill Memorial Bridge." The revisions emphasize Captain Hill's personal history, including his service in the Army Reserves and his career in the Charleston Police Department, while removing less relevant details about his work prior to joining the police force. These changes focus on honoring Captain Hill's contributions and legacy, making the memorialization more significant and respectful.
