	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   SB 842, Knight. Highway signs: Veterans' Home of California.
   Existing law provides that the Department of Transportation is in
full possession and control of the state highway system. Existing law
provides for placement of signs on state highways, as specified.
   This bill would require the department to erect, at appropriate
locations on highways in the state highway system, generic
directional signs to each Veterans' Home of California, upon
receiving funds from nonstate sources sufficient to cover the cost.


THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

  SECTION 1.  Section 101.13 is added to the Streets and Highways
Code, to read:
   101.13.  The department shall erect, at appropriate locations on
highways in the state highway system, generic directional signs to
each Veterans' Home of California authorized pursuant to Chapter 1
(commencing with Section 1010) or Chapter 2 (commencing with Section
1100) of Division 5 of the Military and Veterans Code, upon receiving
funds from nonstate sources sufficient to cover the cost.
   Placement of the signs shall be consistent with criteria for
signing to federal or state hospitals as set forth in the California
Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices, adopted pursuant to
Section 21400 of the Vehicle Code.
