• MEMORANDUM
TO: TOWN COUNCIL
FROM: TOWN ATTORNEY
RE: STREET NAMES
DATE: Mareh45,-2005 '4 ~k{~l<< -~-Iea ~rL
'110s, - Sect d i~iead
Since the last Council meeting, at which you declined to change "Buck Creek
Road" to "Mountain Star Boulevard," there has been some further discussion about street names
and the regulation of them. There is therefore submitted to you an ordinance amending the Town's
subdivision regulations to establish criteria for street names.
The Town's subdivision regulations currently require that street names be approved
by Council but only that they be "consistent with the surrounding areas." I do not recall the
Council ever taking a position with respect to street names and believe that the naming of streets
has defaulted to developers.
• The criteria contained in the ordinance are based on my own thinking and my
review of other street names in the area. Norm Wood has reviewed the ordinance and feels that it
addresses the issue adequately.
