PH-14-031 HOLD a public hearing and consider a city-initiated request to change the street name of Sheila Drive to Lowes Boulevard.
Staff comments: Tony McIlwain
This is a request from the Public Works Department to change the street name of Sheila Drive to Lowes Boulevard. As part of the Trimmier Road widening project, an extension of Sheila Drive will be constructed to connect to Trimmier Road. In an effort to reduce confusion, staff believes it is appropriate to change the street name to Lowes Boulevard. This will ultimately result in two segments of Lowes Boulevard stretching from Florence Road to W.S. Young Drive.
The Planning Department has notified property owners abutting Sheila Drive and provided public notice in the newspaper and has received no responses.
Staff recommends that the City Council approve the city-initiated request to change the street name of Sheila Drive to Lowes Boulevard.
Mayor Corbin opened the public hearing. With no one appearing, the public hearing was closed.
Motion was made by Clark to approve PH-031. Motion was seconded by Segarra. Motion carried unanimously.
