Road Naming with Subdivision

A road name is required for any road that provides access to more than one lot, or to one lot with more than two buildings or more than four houses. Road names must be approved before a final subdivision map is recorded. Existing roads can be named or renamed through petition of a majority of the property owners located on the road.

What is the process?

Step 1: Complete an Application Package

  1. Complete a Road Naming Application.
  2. Tentative Map - must include all roads to be named.

Step 2: Apply Online

Please note for all Planning and Building applications, after 15 days of non-payment of invoice, the application will be voided and resubmittal will be required.

Step 4: Application Completeness Review

Department of Planning & Building staff reviews the application for consistency with applicable land use regulations. An application may be deemed incomplete and require additional information, and an information hold letter will be sent to the applicant, or authorized agent for the applicant.
