DESCRIPTION: At its April 11, 1983, meeting, the City Council initiated a street name change study from Vomac Road to West Vomac Road. The name change would apply to the area along Vomac Road, west of San Ramon Road. A total of 48 single family dwelling units would be affected by the proposed name change. Although both the Postal Service and the Alameda County Building Inspection Department refer to the street "West jVomac Road", the official name is "Vomac Road". The Postal Service prefers West Vomac Road name change because: 1. The street on the west side of San Ramon Road has numbers ranging from 12000, down; while streets on the east side have numbers ranging from 8371, down. 2. The proposed name change would help distinguish the two different portions of the street. The Dublin San Ramon Services District, Fire Department, has indicated its support for the proposed street name change. The subdivider, at the end of Vomac road, has also indicated support for the proposed street name change. Staff has received no other comments from other agencies or residents. On July 18, 1983, the Planning Commission reviewed the proposal at a public hearing. There were no comments from the public, either in favor or against. The Planning Commission recommended approval of the street name change. Staff recommends that the City Council approve the street name change from Vomac Road to West Vomac Road. ----------------------------------------------------------------- !TEM NO.

The street in Tract 4802 is an extension of the street in Tract 3733 and is named "West Vomac Road" as far as the Postal Service is concerned. As it appears the county refers to this street as "Vomac Road" , please advise me of the action I need to take to have your records changed to reflect the official name as "West Vomac Road" . The Postal Service prefers the "West" designation for that portion of the road west of San Radon Road as San amon Road is t e point at which the numbering grid changes. The number range or e o er portion o� oV—mac Road is 7900 through 8399, while that portion west of San Ramon Road has a number range of 11800 through 12099 . Our reason for preferring the "West" designation is due to the two different numbering systems and to assist in distinguishing the two different portions of the road.
