	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   ACR 165, Bigelow. America's Heroes-Veterans Memorial Highway.
   This measure would designate a portion of State Highway Route 49
in the County of Amador as the America's Heroes-Veterans Memorial
Highway. The measure would request the Department of Transportation
to determine the cost for appropriate signs, as specified, and, upon
receiving donations from nonstate sources covering that cost, to
erect those signs.



   WHEREAS, It is important to appreciate, admire, and honor the men
and women who have served in the Armed Forces of the United States of
America to protect and defend our country and the freedom, rights,
and privileges enjoyed by all Americans; and
   WHEREAS, Nearly two million veterans reside in the State of
California, and the County of Amador is home to many of these brave
and honorable individuals; and
   WHEREAS, We should make it a priority to fully support our state's
veterans in ways that commemorate their great sacrifice; now,
therefore, be it
   Resolved by the Assembly of the State of California, the Senate
thereof concurring, That the Legislature hereby designates the
portion of State Highway Route 49 at Valley View Way post mile R7.298
to approximately post mile R10.560 before the Jay-D Ornsby-Adkins
Bridge (bridge number 26-0043), located at post mile R10.576, in the
County of Amador as the America's Heroes-Veterans Memorial Highway;
and be it further
   Resolved, That the Department of Transportation is requested to
determine the costs of erecting appropriate signs, which would
include this special designation, consistent with the signing
requirements for the state highway system, and, upon receiving
donations from nonstate sources covering the cost, to erect those
signs; and be it further
   Resolved, That the Chief Clerk of the Assembly transmit copies of
this resolution to the Director of Transportation and to the author
for appropriate distribution.
