LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST SB 104, Machado. State Route 84. Existing law requires the California Transportation Commission to relinquish to any city or county any portion of any state highway within the city or county that has been deleted from the state highway system by legislative enactment. Unless otherwise specified, a relinquishment becomes effective upon the first day of the next calendar or fiscal year, whichever first occurs after the effective date of the legislative enactment. This bill would authorize the commission to relinquish to the City of West Sacramento the portion of Route 84 within the city, upon the terms and conditions the commission finds to be in the best interests of the state. The bill would specify that the relinquishment becomes effective on the day immediately following the day on which the relinquishment is recorded by the county recorder. The bill would declare it is to take effect immediately as an urgency statute. THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS: SECTION 1.
