RECOMMENDATION
~gAn ordinance has been prepared and is attached, which, if adopted by the City
Council, would change the name of a portion of "East Northside Drive",
between I.H. 35W and Oakhurst Scenic Drive, to "Yucca Avenue". This change
would extend Yucca Avenue as a continuous street name eastward from its
western terminus at I.H. 35W. (See attached map).
DISCUSSION
A request has been received from the Oakhurst Neighborhood Association
proposing that a portion of "East Northside Drive" be changed to "Yucca
Avenue". P1argaret Bruce, representative of the Neighborhood Association,
feels the change will make Yucca Avenue easier to find when coming off I.H.
35W, and lessen confusion for the traveling public.
Concerned City Departments, the Postmaster and State Department of Highways
and Public Transportation have reviewed this request, and submitted their
comments. The Highway representative has stated that exits with two street
names invariably cause more confusion at the intersection, and it is very
difficult to provide signing in advance of such an intersection that will
direct traffic into the proper lane to make the desired turn. The Fire
Department and the City Traffic Engineer generally concurred with the same
comments. There were no objectionable comments submitted by other City
Departments.
The State Department of Highways and Public Transportation's policy requires
the cost of re-signing for name changes be borne by others, and indicates
that such cost will amount to several thousand dollars. Costs of City'sign
replacement to change street name signs and add information signs, has' been
estimated by the Transportation/Public Works Department to be approximately
six hundred ($600) dollars.
A public hearing was conducted August 29, 1989, by the City Council, and
continued to the September 5, 1989, City Council meeting to be held at 7 00
P.t1. All property owners were notified.
