PROPQ$AL:
It is proposed that the City Council:
1. Authorize the City Manager to initiate a street name change for Longleaf Court to Brooklynn Court,and
2. Waive the fee for the application in the amount of 5682.
DISCUSSION:
Ms.Kristi Boyd,acting on behalf of her neighbors on Longleaf Court,has requested a waiver of the application fee for the
street name change of Longleaf Court to Brooklynn Court.
The City Council should make two findings prior to approval of a fee waiver.
1.That the waiver carries out a public purpose;and
2.That there are sufficient controls to ensure the public purpose is carried out.
In this case,the public purpose involved is one of public safety.Longleaf Court intersects Longleaf Lane and four addresses
are duplicated The residents of Longleaf Court cite many instances where the duplicadon of addresses has caused confusion
for service providers.They are concerned that the similarity in street names will cause a delay in provision of emergency
services.Should the fee waiver request be granted,the street name change request will be processed and the Council will
have the opportunity to vote on the request.The neighbors will bear the cost of the new street signs.
The neighbors chose the name Brooklynn Court to honor a three-year old child,Brooklyn Grace Milburn,who lived on the
street and recently passed away.The family is aware of and appreciates the efforts of their neighborhood.
LEGALITY:
The Law Department finds that this proposal is legal and within the authority of the City Council.
FISCAL NOTE:
The Finance Director certifies that this action will have no material effect on City funds.
CITY MANAGEIt'5 COMMENT:
