Existing law authorizes the board of supervisors of a county, by a vote of not less than 35 of its membership, to petition the Department of Transportation to cooperate in the improvement of an existing highway or the construction of a proposed highway in that county when the existing highway connects, or the proposed highway will connect, a forest highway system road or national park road that is already built or under construction, with any state highway. Existing law requires that the connecting highway not exceed 50 miles in length.
Existing law requires, when any highway sought to be improved or constructed under these provisions is situated in 2 or more counties, that the petition, or the concurrence in that petition, be passed by a 35 vote of the membership of the board of supervisors of each of those counties to initiate the proceeding.
This bill would make nonsubstantive changes to these provisions.
