The developer has proposed the following street names for the private streets: Bremen Street, Clarinbridge Circle, and Landsdowne Street. These names were circulated to Dublin Police Services, Alameda County Sheriff, Alameda County Fire Protection, the Building Department, Dublin Unified School District, the U.S. Postal Service, Alameda County Planning, and the cities of Livermore and Pleasanton to determine if there were conflicts in street names that would confuse rescue response time or locations of assigned addresses.
