RESOLUTION OF THE CITY OF ROHNERT PARK RE: THE IMPROVE-
MENT OF STATE HIGHWAY NO. 12 TO FREEWAY STANDARDS
WHEREAS, the present State Highway No. 12 between
Santa Rosa, Sonoma and US Highway 40 is inadequate to serve
today's traffic needs; and
WHEREAS, the present plans of the Division of High-
ways for the said State Highway No. 12 within Sonoma County
are to improve said highway to freeway standards; and
WHEREAS, the extension of a two lane highway (non-
freeway) parallel to the present road from the recently com-
pleted section near Calistoga Road South to Highways 37 and
121 would better serve the citizens of our State.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the California
State Highway Commission is urged to seriously consider the
urgent need to improve Highway 12 and also to direct the
California Division of Highways to expedite the development
of a freeway route on Highway 116 (Stage Gulch Road) in lieu
of the currently adopted freeway route along Highway 12.
