9. Change Street NamesMemo to: Bruce Williams, City Manager From: Bob Babb, City Engineer Re: Request for name changes for 4 roads I would like to have the names of four roads officially changed. Custer St. change to 7th Street West Crook Street change to 8th Street West Wallace Ave. change to 12th Ave. West Forsyth Ave. change to 13th Ave. West Reasons; The graveled roadways will be paved between 7th St. West and 8th St. West this summer as part of a subdivision development. The City will be signing these Avenues and Streets and I would like to establish these names now as part of "good housekeeping." There are presently no structures that address off of Wallace or Forsyth. There is a potential that addresses will be needed for new buildings on 13th Ave. West north of 7th St. West before the summer is done. These names go back to the original Ashley subdivision. The names Custer and Crook Streets have not been used since before anybody can recall and the Post Office has used 7th St. West and 8th Street West for all addressing in modern times. I am requesting that the Council pass a resolution covering these 4 name changes.
