           SENATE APPROPRIATIONS COMMITTEE  :  Senate Rule 28.8


           SUBJECT  :    The Luiseño Highway

           SOURCE  :     Author


           DIGEST  :    This resolution designates a portion of State Highway  
          Route (SR) 76 in northern San Diego County as the Luiseño  
          Highway.

           ANALYSIS  :    The Payómkawichum people have lived in what is now  
          San Diego County for thousands of years, and were there when the  
          Spanish arrived.  The Spanish established the Mission San Luis  
          Rey, named for their King Luis, in the Payómkawichum territory  
          and called the people the Luiseño, a name that stuck over the  
          past three centuries.  

          The Luiseño villages followed the course of the San Luis Rey  
          River from the mountains to the ocean with trails connecting the  
          villages.   These trails became corridors of travel for not just  
          the Luiseño but the Spanish settlers and later Mexican and  
                                                                CONTINUED





                                                                     SCR 87
                                                                     Page

          American settlers as well.  Eventually, the state of California  
          built a highway along their route, and today it is SR 76, which  
          this resolution names in honor of the original people of the  
          area.

          This resolution designates the portion of SR 76 between  
          Interstate 15 and SR 79 near Lake Henshaw in San Diego County as  
          the Luiseño Highway.  This resolution further requests that the  
          Department of Transportation erect appropriate signs upon  
          receiving donations from non-state sources to cover the costs.
