Several years ago during the early development stages of Westpoint, the Westpoint
F,RE AUMi~diST al~ev2lopment Corp (Joseph E. Howell, III, President) requested that the names of
rlt.~L~~ DEPAR ~YI~~I~xabove-cited streets within the Westpoint area be changed. However, before the
required procedures could be completed, the requests were dropped because of the
N~~~IsINC & core! IvcrTdss~E'~'(Sf signing, particularly at Freeway intersections, as well as there being some
doubt about precise alignment of future extensions of the subject streets.
un+er,N R~SCU CtS 1 ,

.progressed, street signs in the Westpoint Development were erected and included

Road and I-30, to "Academy Boulevard", and the name of Tumbleweed Trail, from its
