LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


AB 2082, Juan Carrillo. State highways: State Route 138: reduction.
Existing law vests the Department of Transportation with full possession and control of all state highways. Existing law describes the authorized routes in the state highway system and establishes a process for adoption of a highway on an authorized route by the California Transportation Commission. Existing law authorizes the commission to relinquish to local agencies state highway segments that have been deleted from the state highway system by legislative enactment or have been superseded by relocation, and in certain other cases. Existing law designates State Route 138 from Route 14 near the City of Palmdale to Route 18 near Crestline in the County of San Bernardino.
This bill would authorize the commission to relinquish to the City of Palmdale all or a portion of State Route 138 within the city’s jurisdiction and prescribe conditions that apply upon relinquishment.
Vote: MAJORITY   Appropriation: NO   Fiscal Committee: YES   Local Program: NO
