SUBJECT: Deputy Sheriff Danny P. Oliver Memorial Highway
DIGEST: This resolution designates a portion of State Highway
Route 50 in El Dorado County as the Deputy Sheriff Danny P.
Oliver Memorial Highway.
ANALYSIS:
The committee has adopted a policy regarding the naming of state
highways or structures. Under the policy, the committee will
consider only those resolutions that meet all of the following
criteria:
1)The person being honored must have provided extraordinary
public service or some exemplary contribution to the public
good and have a connection to the community where the highway
or structure is located.
2)The person being honored must be deceased.
3)The naming must be done without cost to the state. Costs for
signs and plaques must be paid by local or private sources.
4)The author or co-author of the resolution must represent the
district in which the facility is located, and the resolution
must identify the specific highway segment or structure being
named.
5)The segment of highway being named must not exceed five miles

in length.
6)The proposed designation must reflect a community consensus
and be without local opposition.
7)The proposed designation may not supersede an existing
designation unless the sponsor can document that a good faith
effort has uncovered no opposition to rescinding the prior
designation.
This resolution designates a portion of State Highway Route 50
in El Dorado County from post mile 4.962 to post mile 6.570 as
the Deputy Sheriff Danny P. Oliver Memorial Highway. The
measure also requests the Department of Transportation to
determine the cost of appropriate signs showing this special
designation and, upon receiving donations from non-state sources
covering that cost, to erect those signs.
COMMENTS:
1)Purpose. This resolution is intended to honor the life and
service of Deputy Sheriff Danny P. Oliver.
2)Background. Danny P. Oliver grew up in the Del Paso Heights
neighborhood of Sacramento, graduating from Grant High School.
He joined the Sacramento County Sheriff's Department in 1999
and was a dedicated street cop. On October 24, 2014, in the
parking lot of a hotel in Sacramento County, Deputy Sheriff
Oliver was investigating a suspicious vehicle. An occupant of
the vehicle opened fire on Deputy Sheriff Oliver, killing him.
