FINANCIAL STATEMENT: The cost for production and installation of new street identification signage will be paid by the City. DESCRIPTION: Lee Thompson, Public Works Director, has filed a New Street Name application with the Planning Departmen%' (PA 93-045) to name the existing Chabot Flood Control Channel connector road between Scarlet Court and the Dublin Boulevard Extension to Scarlett Drive. This connector road has been previously referred to as Chabot Road or Chabot Channel Road and has appeared on some maps as Asia Anna Court. However, the roadway has never been officially named. It is proposed that the roadway (Exhibit B) be named Scarlett Drive to provide street name recognition for motorists traveling west along the Dublin Boulevard Extension. Motorists would use Scarlett Drive to get to Scarlett Court instead of making a U-turn at the Dougherty Road/Dublin Boulevard intersection. As part of the improvements of the Dublin Boulevard Extension, the Dublin City Council accepted the offer of dedication from U-Haul of the East Bay on November 12, 1991, for an access and public utility easement along the west side of the Chabot Channel of Parcel Map 3000. An additional portion of property was dedicated separately by John Moore for the completion of the roadway. Ordinance No. 1-93 establishes procedures and authorizes the City Council to change, by resolution, the name of any street within the City. Section (e) of Ordinance 1-93, New Street Names, specifies in part that names for new streets shall be established by the adoption of a resolution by the City Council without the need for a public hearing. Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the resolution approving the New Street Name of Scarlett Drive, for the connector road between the Dublin Boulevard Extension and Scarlett Court. Should the City Council desire a name other than Scarlett Drive, this matter could be continued until a preferred name is selected.
