N.W. <br /> BY James Gromberg, Project Manager <br /> <br />Background: <br /> <br />The City is in the process of developing a roadway which will cross a large section of the <br />City to the south of the City Hall. This roadway is currently referred to as Sunfish Lake <br />Drive N.W. This name does lead to some confusion with Sunfish Lake Blvd. N.W. <br />(County Road #57). The City conducted a public hearing on August 24, 1993 to receive <br />input from residents. The City has received the following suggested names for this <br />roadway: <br /> <br />Thorne Drive <br />Scroggins Road <br />Sunny Ponds Drive <br /> <br />The proposed renaming of this roadway was on the September 14, 1993 Council agenda. <br />The proposed renaming of 153rd Avenue N.W. was also on that agenda and will be <br />discussed at a later date. <br /> <br />When Council decides upon a new name for this Sunfish Lake Drive N.W., the following <br />schedule would be followed for the renaming and new addresses to be assigned: <br /> <br />7 <br /> <br />1) Public hearing conducted to receive input from residents <br /> <br />August 24, 1993 <br /> <br />2) City Council chooses a name for the roadways <br /> <br />August 24, 1993 or <br />September 14, 1993 <br />September 28, 1993 <br /> <br />3) City Council introduces Ordinance to rename the <br /> roadway. <br /> <br />September 28, 1993 <br /> <br />4) City Council adopts Ordinance to rename the <br /> roadway <br /> <br />October 12, 1993 <br /> <br />5) Ordinance takes effect <br /> <br />November, 12, 1993 <br /> <br />6) Name change takes effect <br /> <br />January 1, 1995 <br /> <br />During this period, as with all address changes, the residents with addresses along the <br />roadway would be notified and assisted with the changing of their address. As the above <br />schedule indicates, the actual change will not happen until 1995 which should allow <br />sufficient time for new checks and drivers license changes. <br /> <br />Recommendation/Suggestion: <br /> <br />Council is aware of the limited public response to this request for input. Such being the <br />case, Staff is suggesting that Sunfish Lake Drive be renamed Sunwood Drive N.W. While <br />this name has not been suggested by the public, it is noted that the road originates at <br />Sunfish Lake and goes through Wood Pond Hills and Sunny Pond subdivisions plus <br />provides access to the Wood Pond projects. It is recommended that the name include Drive <br /> <br /> <br />
