Approve Road Name Petition RN 2018-0001 (First Gate Road) in Willits, officially changing the names of Willow Brook Road and Redwood Creek Drive to First Gate Road, find it to be in conformance with Mendocino County Code Section 18.16; and direct staff to assign addresses accordingly.

Previous Board/Board Committee Actions:
Adoption of Chapter 18.16 of the Mendocino County Code, granting the Planning & Building Services Department authority over private road naming and addressing. Chapter 18.16 was most recently updated in December 2016 by Ordinance 4370.
Summary of Request:
The Mendocino County Department of Planning and Building Services (PBS) is responsible for creating and maintaining the Master Grid and Property Numbering System used to assign physical or ‘situs’ numbers to parcels in the unincorporated areas of the County. The primary purpose of this responsibility is to coordinate the application of emergency services when needed, as well as to maintain an organized file system within the Department based on property addresses. In addition, the Department is also tasked with processing road name petitions filed by property owners, or filing petitions on the County’s behalf when the need arises. In concert with Autumn Whittaker, a local resident, PBS is proposing a name change to several private roads in the Willowbrook Hills Subdivision in the Sherwood area outside Willits. The subdivision is located 5.75± miles northwest of the City of Willits on the east side of Sherwood Road, 5.7± miles northwest of its intersection with US 101. The existing names of Willow Brook Road and Redwood Creek Drive are not used by the residents. Locally, the road and general area are widely known as First Gate, and the residents would like to adopt the name First Gate Road to reflect this. The roads collectively serve 16 parcels and 14 residences. Staff supports the petition and recommends the Board of Supervisors adopt the name change as proposed.
Alternative Action/Motion:
1) The Board of Supervisors rejects adoption of “First Gate Road” as the name of the private road, leaving the existing names in use.
2) The Board of Supervisors adopts a different name for this road, naming it __________________, and directs staff to assign the proper addresses.
