HARDGRAVE, Director Dept: Public Works Department Date: Apri 1 24, 1989 Subject: Street Name Change: Resolution Mac Kay Drive, between South "E" Street and South "0" Street to Fairway Drive ~ Synopsis of Previous Council action: 03/13/89 -- The Real Property Section of the Public Works Department was authorized and directed to proceed with the proposed street name change of South "0" Street, South of Century, to Fairway Court, and Mac Kay Drive, between South "E" Street and South "0" Street to Fairway Drive. Recommended motion: Adopt Resolution cc: Jim Robbins, Acting City Administrato Jim Richardson, Deputy City Administrat James F.

On 03-13-89, the Real Property Section of the Public Works Department was authorized and directed to proceed with an investigation of the proposed name change. On 04-03-89, City Departments were notified of the proposed name change, and given an opportunity to comment on the proposal. No concerns were expressed by the vari ous departments. The Real Property Section has received one phone call (04-24-89, followed by the a ttached letter) to protest the South "0" Street change of name to Fairway Court. The reasons for the protest are the high cost of changing stationery and other printed materials, appearance of a lack of stability (i.e. "moved their offices"), loss of referral sources, and the implication of leisure time rather than serious business. The protester plans to attend the 05-15-89 Council Meeting to air his views. The owner of the office buildings located at 423 and 431 Mac Kay Drive, and 1585 S. "0" Street, wrote a letter (04-20-89, see attached) protesting any change in the names of the two streets. ICC Enterprises will be advising their tenants to write letters protesting the proposed name changes, and ICC plans to attend the 05- 15-89 Council Meeting to present their views. Staff does not recommend the changing of "0" Street for several reason: 1) Although it is separated from "0" Street North of Century, it does line up with the Northerly portion, and it is a logical Southerly extension of "0" Street; 2) it is the first major street to the East of "E" Street; and 3) the Ci ty is al ready burdened with mul ti pl e street names for streets whi ch logically align. Staff does not have major objections to the changing of Mac Kay Drive to Fa i rway Drive, but we do have a concern wi th the "offset" of the proposed new Fairway Drive to the Southerly Fairway Drive which connects with "E" Street from the West. If, in spite of the protests and concerns, the name change(s) take(s) effect, an effective date of January I, 1990 is recommended to help alleviate some of the tenant resistance, and to help the tenants use up the stationery they have purchased using the old street names ("0" Street or Mac Kay Drive). . Staff therefore recommends approval of Mac Kay Drive to Fairway Drive, effective January I, 1990, but recommends denial of the change from South "0" Street to Fairway Court. 4-24-89 7~.0264 . .

Hardgrave Director of Public Works/City Engineer CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO 300 North "D" Street San Bernardino, CA 92418-0001 RE: PROPOSED NAME CHANGES OF MACKAY DRIVE SOUTH "0" STREET Dear Mr. Hardgrave: As the new owner effective October 18, 1988 of the office buildings located at 423 and 431 MacKay Drive and 1585 S. "D" Street, it seems appropriate that we should have been advised of the above-mentioned proposed street name changes. It was through one of our tenants that we received the information. upon reviewing your letter dated April 17, 1989, we are curious as to whom has requested these names changes considering there are no ties on either street with the golf course or the golfing industry. We see no advantage to the proposed name changes. Such changes would be very costly to our tenants considering all the printed materials that they maintain. A response to the background of this development would be greatly appreciated prior to the presentation of the Resolution before the Mayor and Common Council on May 15. Is this meeting an open meeting whereby the public or those directly affected by such a decision may attend? Your immediate response to these questions will be greatly appreciated.

Suit. 205. CA 9Z408 April 24, 1989 Mr. Roger G. Hardgrave Director of Public Works/City Engine'er Mr. Verne J. Nadeau Real Property Supervisor Public Works Department City of San Bernardino 300 North "0" Street San Bernardino, CA 92418-0001 Dear Mr. Hardgrave and Mr. Nadeau: I am in receipt of your letter dated April 17, 1989, File Number 15.01A-38 proposing a change in the name of South "0" Street to Fairway Court. I have several very strong concerns about this name change. The first concern is, of course, cost. Vocational Exploration Services has eight offices in the Southern California, area. There are more than forty professional staff whose business cards reflect the addresses of all eight offices. In addition, company letterhead, informational materials, and inter-office correspondence contain a listing of all eight addresses. Any printing change is extremely expensive not just for our office but for the company as a whole. A second concern is our business competition. A great number of vocational rehabilitation counselling companies in the San Bernardino area are located on "0" Street. We located our office on "0" Street in order to be identified with this other group of professionals. Changing the name of the street to Fairway Court would cause us to lose this identification and oould affect our referral sources. Since our referral sources rely basically on written information, any change of address would appear to indicate we had moved. Stability is very important in our business and even the appearance of having moved could, again, affect our referral sources. - -- ..- . - . 1".....".... ~" - - -- April 21. 1989 RE: Response to File No. 15.01A-38 Page 2 A fourth concern is that the name Fairway Court implies leisure time and relaxation rather than the serious business in which we are involved. Your letter indicates that The City of San Bernardino has received a request to change the name of South "D" Street to Fa i rway Court. However, I have been informed by the owners of our building, ICC Enterprises, that they were not even aware such a request has been made. I am therefore unclear as to who made the request and whom the request would benefit. Changing the name from South "D" Street to Fairway Court would have a very definite negative impact upon Vocational Exploration Services. In add i tion to the excessive cost of changing all the business stationery, our future referrals could be drastically affected. I am therefore requesting that you present to the San Bernardino City Council our objection to the name change and our recommendation that the name of the street be left as South "D" Street. Thank you for your attention to this matter. If you should have any further questions I can be reached at (714) 885-3882. Sincerely, f)(JA})aJtl ~fW c.-/Uht Barbara Shogren Gies, M.A., N.C.C.
