           Assembly Amendments  add the term "Memorial" to the Senator 
          Dave Cox Memorial Interchange.

           ANALYSIS  :    Senator Dave Cox was born in Oklahoma in 1938; 
          Dave Cox came to California and attended the University of 
          San Diego.  He maintained a life insurance business while 
          also being active in community and church activities.  He 
          served in local elected office both on the Sacramento 
          Municipal Utility District Board and on the Sacramento 
          County of Board of Supervisors.  In 1998, he won election 
          to the State Assembly, where he served for six years, 
          including a stint as the Assembly Republican Leader.  In 
          2004, Cox won election to the California State Senate, 
          where he represented the first district until his death in 
          2010.  He is survived by his wife, Maggie, and their 
          daughters Cathleen, Margo, and Sarah, as well as six 
          grandchildren.

          This resolution designates the interchange of SR 50 and 
          Hazel Avenue located in Sacramento County as the "Senator 
          Dave Cox Memorial Interchange."  The resolution further 
          requests that the Department of Transportation erect 
          appropriate signs upon receiving donations from non-state 
          sources to cover the costs.
