Policy
-
The City of Rancho Palos Verdes established a policy to guide the naming and renaming of City parks, facilities, and other public spaces. The purpose of the policy is to ensure that naming decisions are made through a structured process that reflects the community’s history, values, and contributions.
The policy allows parks and facilities to be named after geographic locations, natural features, historical references, or individuals and organizations that have made significant contributions to the community or to the development of the facility. Naming may also recognize individuals who have provided substantial financial support or donations toward the development or maintenance of a public facility.
Requests for naming or renaming a facility must be reviewed by City staff and may involve community input before being forwarded for official consideration. The City Council has the final authority to approve any naming decision. The policy also emphasizes that naming decisions should preserve community identity, avoid duplication of existing names, and ensure that names remain respectful and appropriate for public spaces.
