BACKGROUND:
Pursuant to Part I, Section 6 (e) of the Albemarle County Road Naming and Property Numbering Manual, road name change requests shall be forwarded to the Board for approval upon validation of the following:
That the landowners of more than fifty (50) percent of the parcels served by the road have signed a petition in favor of a common road name, and that the proposed road name is otherwise consistent with the road name guidelines set forth in the Manual (i.e., that it is not a duplicate name, is limited to three words, and does not exceed sixteen characters and/or spaces).
STRATEGIC PLAN:
Goal One: Enhance the Quality of Life for All Citizens
DISCUSSION:
Beights Development Corporation, the sole landowner of property served by Reas Creek Drive, submitted a request to change the road name of Reas Creek Drive to Golf Drive (Attachment A). The proposed name is a common road name within the meaning of the Manual and is consistent with the Manual’s other road name guidelines. A map showing the location of the road is attached (Attachment B).
BUDGET IMPACT:
There is no anticipated budget impact. The landowner will be responsible for costs associated with new signage.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
Staff recommends that the Board approve changing the road name of Reas Creek Drive Lane to Golf Drive and authorize staff to implement the change.
