AI Summary

This joint resolution seeks to honor Assembly Member Patty Berg by designating a specific portion of State Route 101 in Humboldt County as the "Assembly Member Patty Berg Memorial Highway." The resolution highlights Berg's significant contributions to public service, including her six-year tenure in the State Assembly representing District One, her work with aging and long-term care initiatives, and her advocacy for various community organizations. The California Department of Transportation is requested to determine the cost of memorial highway signs and to install them once sufficient non-state donations are received to cover the expenses. The memorial highway segment spans approximately 2.68 miles, specifically from the 14th Street Overcrossing to Turner Draw. The resolution also notes Berg's background as a community leader who worked for Humboldt County, founded the Area Agency on Aging, co-founded the Redwood Coast Music Festival, and was an advocate for various local causes, including Planned Parenthood and Hospice of Humboldt. The memorial aims to commemorate her life and public service contributions following her passing in November 2024.
