DESCRIPTION: At the regular City Council meeting of November 21, 2000, the City Council adopted a policy for street naming to benefit nonprofit organizations. The policy states that funds raised are to be used to benefit Dublin residents, requests from organizations must be approved by the City Council and the tract developer prior to any ftmdraising activity taking place, and the potential street names chosen must comply with street-naming procedures as outlined in the Dublin Municipal Code. A request has been received from Councilmember Oravetz to designate a street within a future Dublin Ranch Tract, the naming of which would be auctioned ' to benefit the Kaleidoscope Activity Center in Dublin. The fundraising event, the Tri-Valley Sports Hall of Fame, will be held on March 20, 2003. As noted in Cm. Oravetz's memo, Marty Inderbitzen has agreed to the proposal on behalf of Dublin Ranch. This request meets the guidelines contained within the policy. Once the auction has been held, and the potential names haVe been routed to other agencies as part of the name approval procedure, the names will be brought back to the City Council, either as part of a Final Map approval or for approval as a separate entity, as appropriate. Staff recommends that the City Council approve the request to designate a street within Dublin Ranch for naming by a non-profit organization subject to provisions of the City of Dublin's policy for non-profit street-naming.

The funds raised from the sale of the street name shall be used for the benefit of Dublin residents. 2. Both the City Council and the tract developer shall approve the request in advance of any fund raising activities. 3. The street name shall comply with and is subject to processing in accordance with the Dublin Municipal Code. 4. No addresses shall be located on the street, OR the street naming shall take place prior to the time the tract street names are submitted to the City for review as part of the Tentative Map process. 5. The street name shall be chosen and the approval process completed within a reasonable time of street construction; i.e., prior to the time that the developer installs street name signs in the tract. (The approval process typically takes six to eight weeks following submittal of the proposed street name.) 6. The street shall not be an arterial street. The City process involved in reviewing and approving a street name under the Dublin Municipal Code is as follows: 1. Verification that the name (or a very similar name) does not already exist in Alameda County (requirement of emergency services). 2. Circulation among emergency services, the U.S. Postal Service, and nearby agencies for approval. 3. Approval by the City Council and submittal of street name to the County Recorder. Under this program, the tract developer would obtain and install the street name signs.
