HD.jA^tL riTYATTY \y/ff CITY MGR.e3^=- RECOMMENDED ACTION: QUJ§aza.o. APPROVE revised Council Policy Statement No. 20. ITEM EXPLANATION This item is a minor revision to City Council Policy No. 20, which is the city's street naming policy. The existing street naming policy requires that all proposed public and private street names conform to a geographical classification map (see attached Exhibit A). This exhibit divides the city into seven geographical areas and provides a street name category for each area (e.g., flowers and trees, Spanish, etc.). The proposed revision to this policy is to expand the variety of street name categories in areas 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6, as shown on Exhibit "C". This policy would also allow nautical terms to be used as street names in areas 1, 4 and 5 for projects that have ocean views or are in close proximity to the beach. This revision is being proposed because developers are having difficulty in finding enough adequate street names with 17 letters/ spaces or less that conform to the existing street name categories. Staff believes that the new street name categories being added to areas 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 should eliminate this problem. The proposed revision would make no other changes to City Council Policy No. 20. The Police, Fire and Utilities and Maintenance Departments have indicated that they have no problems with the proposed revision. FISCAL IMPACT No fiscal impacts would be created by approval of this item. EXHIBITS 1. Council Policy Statement No. 20. 2. Exhibit "A" of Policy No. 20 3. Exhibit "B" of Policy No. 20 4.
