ATTESTED: June 3, 2014 David Twa, County Administrator and Clerk of the Board of Supervisors By: June McHuen, Deputy cc: D. 4 To:Board of Supervisors From:Julia R. Bueren, Public Works Director/Chief Engineer Date:June 3, 2014 Contra Costa County Subject:Rename a section of Stone Road (Road No. 8987C), between 4080 Stone Road and 4551 Stone Road, to Windsweep Road, Bethel Island area. (District III) RECOMMENDATION(S): (CONT'D) (1) each property owner along the renamed road; (2) the United States Postal Service; (3) the Contra Costa Transportation Authority and each transit agency that serves Bethel Island; (4) the Office of the Sheriff; (5) East Contra Costa Fire Protection District; (6) the California Highway Patrol; (7) each public utility serving the renamed road; (8) the Bethel Island Municipal Improvement District; (9) the Bethel Island Chamber of Commerce, and (10) the reclamation district with jurisdiction over Bethel Island. FISCAL IMPACT: Costs associated with removal of existing signs and installation of replacement signs affected by the resolution will be funded 100% by Local Road Funds. BACKGROUND: The Bethel Island Municipal Advisory Council (BIMAC) recently recommended changing the name of a section of Stone Road, specifically that section of Stone Road between the properties currently addressed 4080 through 4551. BIMAC recommended that section of Stone Road to be renamed "Windsweep Road." The proposed road name change is recommended due to public necessity, as it would assist public safety agencies in locating addresses during emergency responses. In addition to the BIMAC’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. 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. CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION: The road name for the section of Stone Road that extends from Windsweep Road will remain unchanged. CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT: Not applicable. CLERK'S ADDENDUM Speakers: Pam Allen, Bethel Island Municipal Avdisory Council; Matthew Anderson, resident of Bethel Island.
