Recounts the life of Officer Samuel Sanchez of the Guadalupe Police Department.
Designates a three-mile segment of SR 166 between Bonita School Road and Simas Road in Santa Barbara County as the “Officer Samuel Sanchez Memorial Highway.”
Requests that the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) determine the cost of appropriate signs, consistent with the signing requirements for the state highway system, showing the special designation and, upon receiving donations from non-state sources covering that cost, to erect those signs.
EXISTING LAW: Assigns Caltrans the responsibility of operating and maintaining state highways including the installation and maintenance of highway signs.

The naming must be done without cost to the state. Costs for signs and plaques must be paid by local or private sources.
