BACKGROUND INFORMATION: Staff recently noticed that "Azalea Lane" located in the Villa Fiore subdivision has a similar name as "Azalea Street" located in the nearby Gateway North subdivision. The two street names are very similar and the streets are located within 1000 feet of each other (Exhibit A). Similar street names can have detrimental effects to the first responders during emergency situations. The homes located on "Azalea Street" have been occupied by residents and changing their street name would be difficult. Since the new houses under construction on "Azalea Lane" are not yet occupied, changing "Azalea Lane" to another name will not affect any existing residents. The Developer representing the Villa Fiore subdivision, Elliot Homes, concurs with the proposed name change and supports changing the street name to "Violet Street." The Fire Department and Police Department also support the proposed name change. Staff will facilitate the street name change using City forces. Staff recommends authorizing street name change from Azalea Lane to Violet Street. FISCAL IMPACT: Negligible Charles E.
