emergency responses. In addition to the Bethel Island Municipal Advisory Council's recommendation, the Fire
Chief of the East Contra Costa Fire Protection District also supports this change in an effort to meet the needs of
the community.
The United States Postal Service has been consulted and does not object to the proposed name change. (See
attached Postmaster letter dated March 12, 2014.) The proposed name is an extension of existing Windsweep
Road and does not duplicate any current street name within the local post office's or East County Fire Protection
District's jurisdiction.
The Public Works Director therefore recommends that the Board of Supervisors consider the above name change,
in accordance with Streets and Highways Code Section 970.5 and the County's Road Name Change Policy
(Traffic Resolution 2002/4001).
Streets and Highways Code Section 970.5 authorizes the Board of Supervisors to consider renaming this county
road at a public hearing. At the hearing, all interested persons may comment on the proposed name change, make
other proposals for renaming the road, and object to this proposed renaming of the road. At least 10 days before
the hearing, notice of public hearing will be posted in at least three places along the section of Stone Road to be
renamed, and notices of the public hearing will be mailed to each property owner along the section of Stone Road
to be renamed.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
A public hearing for this item will not be fixed for the date specified and will delay any action pertaining to the
requested renaming of a portion of Stone Road.
CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:
Not applicable.
