Bill > SCR79

This joint resolution seeks to honor Brad Mettam, a long-time California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) employee who served the state for over 20 years in various leadership roles, by designating the interchange on State Route 101 at Indianola Cutoff Undercrossing in Humboldt County as the Brad Mettam Memorial Interchange. The resolution highlights Mettam's distinguished career at Caltrans, including his roles as District 1 and District 9 Deputy Director and Assistant Director for Legislative Affairs, and recognizes his extensive community volunteer work with organizations like the Rotary Club and various fire districts. The California Legislature requests that the Department of Transportation determine the cost of memorial signs for this interchange and, upon receiving sufficient non-state donations to cover the expenses, install those signs commemorating Mettam's significant contributions to public service. The resolution also notes that Mettam passed away on August 6, 2024, at the age of 71, and aims to preserve his memory and legacy through this highway designation.
