LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


ACR 58, Nakano. Blue Star Memorial Highway.
This measure would designate State Highway Route 1 from its junction with State Highway Route 5 at Dana Point in Orange County to its junction with State Highway Route 101 at Leggett in Mendocino County as a Blue Star Memorial Highway. The measure would request the Department of Transportation to determine the cost of appropriate plaques and markers showing that designation, and, upon receiving donations from nonstate sources sufficient to cover the cost, to erect appropriate plaques and markers.
WHEREAS, The Blue Star Memorial Highway project was adopted by the National Council of State Garden Clubs; and
WHEREAS, The purpose of the Blue Star Memorial Highway project is to erect highway markers at roadside rest stops, vista points, historical sites, and other appropriate areas to pay tribute to all who have served, those who are presently serving, and those who will serve in the nation’s armed forces; and
WHEREAS, Several clubs within California Garden Clubs wish to erect markers along State Highway Route 1 from its junction with State Highway Route 5 at Dana Point in Orange County to its junction with State Highway Route 101 at Leggett in Mendocino County that designate it as a Blue Star Memorial Highway; now, therefore, be it
Resolved, by the Assembly of the State of California, the Senate thereof concurring, That State Highway Route 1 from its junction with State Highway Route 5 at Dana Point in Orange County to its junction with State Highway Route 101 at Leggett in Mendocino County is hereby officially designated a Blue Star Memorial Highway; and be it further
Resolved, That the Department of Transportation is requested to determine the cost of appropriate plaques and markers, consistent with the signing requirements, for the state highway system, showing this special designation, and, upon receiving donations from nonstate sources sufficient to cover the cost, to erect those plaques and markers; and be it further
Resolved, That the Chief Clerk of the Assembly transmit copies of this resolution to the Department of Transportation and to the author for appropriate distribution.
