          FISCAL EFFECT:


          Minor State Highway Account costs to Caltrans to make and erect  
          appropriate signs; these costs are fully covered by donations.


          COMMENTS:


          Purpose. The Blue Star Memorial Highway Program began after  
          World War II to pay tribute to the Nation's Armed Forces by  
          providing this designation along state and national highway  
          routes. The City of Coronado is seeking such a designation along  
          its Avenue of Heroes.
