LOCATED BETWEEN KELLY JOHNSON PARKWAY AND
NEWHALL RANCH ROAD.
Public Works
RECOMMENDED ACTION
City Council adopt a resolution authorizing the street name change of Aurora Drive to West Rye
Canyon Road, located between Kelly Johnson Parkway and Newhall Ranch Road.
BACKGROUND
The Southern California Gas Company (Gas Company) contacted the City of Santa Clarita (City)
requesting a street name change for Aurora Drive back to its original address of West Rye
Canyon Road. The Gas Company's original address for the site, 25205 West Rye Canyon Road,
dates back to 1975 when it was first purchased from Texaco. Recent development surrounding
the Gas Company parcels created a new street named Aurora Drive. As a result of having a
driveway along Aurora Drive, the Gas Company was assigned a new address of 28451 Aurora
Drive for the site.
The Gas Company owns various parcels under the original address of 25205 West Rye Canyon
Road, which is recognized in all legal documents and permits pertaining to the Gas Company.
To be consistent and avoid confusion in the event of an emergency response, the Gas Company is
requesting Aurora Drive be changed to West Rye Canyon Road, thereby allowing them to
maintain their original 25205 West Rye Canyon Road address.
The City is the entity responsible for authorizing City street name changes and can do so by
adoption of a resolution. The Gas Company is the only business with an Aurora Drive address.
All other properties and businesses in the vicinity have either a Kelly Johnson Parkway or
Newhall Ranch Road address. Therefore, no other property or existing business will be directly
Adopted: g, -1(v
impacted by the proposed street name change. City staff has coordinated with the Los Angeles
County Fire and Sheriffs Departments, and neither has issues regarding the proposed street name
change. For these reasons, staff proposes the City Council adopt the resolution authorizing the
street name change of Aurora Drive to West Rye Canyon Road, which is located between Kelly
Johnson Parkway and Newhall Ranch Road.
If the resolution is adopted, staff will complete the necessary mail notifications to the United
States Postal Service, local utility companies, California Emergency Management Agency, and
other affected public agencies. Businesses and property owners in the vicinity of West Rye
Canyon Road will also receive a letter from the City regarding the new street name. Additionally,
new street name signs noting West Rye Canyon Road will be installed shortly thereafter.
ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS
Deny The Gas Company's request to change the street name of Aurora Drive to West Rye
Canyon Road.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact to the City if the resolution is adopted. The Gas Company will fund the
procurement and installation of the new street name signs, which is estimated to cost
approximately $6,000.
