LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST
SB 993, as amended, Huff. State Highway Route 66.
Existing law provides that the Department of Transportation has
full possession and control of all state highways. Existing law
describes the authorized routes in the state highway system and
establishes a process for adoption of a highway on an authorized
route by the California Transportation Commission. Existing law

segments to local agencies. Existing law described the authorized
route of State Highway Route 66 and authorizes certain portions of
the route to be relinquished to the specified cities.
This bill revise that description of State Highway Route 66 to
indicate portions of the route that have been relinquished or
which that have been authorized to be
relinquished, as specified. The bill would also authorize the
commission to relinquish to the City of Claremont that portion of
State Highway Route 66 within its city limits under specified
