Case #6: Consider Initiating Street Name Changes in Sunfish Lake Estates Community Development Director Frolik stated that with the platting of the Village of Sunfish Lake, it has become apparent that the two numbered streets (145th Avenue and 146th Avenue) in the adjacent Sunfish Lake Estates subdivision are not correctly named in accordance with the County street naming grid system. She noted that 146th Avenue in the new subdivision is a continuation of that same street in the Chestnut Third Subdivision. Community Development Director Frolik explained that within the new subdivision, the appropriately named 146th Lane which lies north of 146th Avenue now is directly across from 145th Avenue in the Sunfish Lake Estates Subdivision. Also, 146th Avenue within the Sunfish Lake Estates subdivision actually falls on the 147th Avenue grid. Community Development Director Frolik explained the City has renamed streets in the past for reasonable cause and recommended the Council adopt the draft resolution to set a public hearing for the renaming of 145th Avenue and 146th Avenue within the Sunfish Lake Estates subdivision to 146th Lane and 147th Avenue. Councihnember Zimmerman inquired if there are people on staff to review the plats that come in. Community Development Director Frolik explained the Engineering Department has assumed the responsibility for verifying street names. This area was developed, then there was open space, and then more development. When the area was infilled the streets did not line up. City Council/February 10, 2004 Page 15 of 18
