SUBJECT: STREET NAME CHANGE Statement of the Matter Some years ago, prior to annexation to Carlsbad, the area south of Palomar Airport Road and east of Carlsbad Boulevard was subdivided. The northerly portion, near Palomar Airport Road, and known as La Costa Downs contains ’- a street paralleling Carlsbad Boulevard named Anacapa. Further to the south, land was subdivided and known as Ponto. This area also contains a street paralleling Carlsbad Boulevard; it is named Ponto Drive. Although these two streets both are immediately to the east of Carlsbad Boulevard they were not originally aligned to connect. Later the Lanakai Mobile home park was developed at the north end.of Ponto Drive. Since Ponto Drive was unimproved to the south and the preferred access was to Palomar Airport Road to the north, the Lanakai development made the connection of Ponto Drive to Anacapa. No identification problem the City-placed street signs identifying the streets with their official names of Anacapa and Ponto Drives. Drive’but is reached by driving south on Anacapa. Several residents of the Lanakai Mobile home park have complained about the street signs. The police and fire departments have indicated that they recognize this street as Ponto Drive, but are not familiar with the name Anacapa Road. Another problem is that Ponto Drive is primarily a north-south street, but at it% southern end it turns abruptly east. Normally a street name change is required when direction is changed in this manner. . The City Council policy on street names, Policy No. 20, indicates that street name changes can be initiated by a Resolution of Intention of the City Council on the Planning Commission. However, per past action, the City Council has indicated that they.wish to be informed of all street name qhanges before they are initiated. . existed because neither street contained street name signs.
