TITLE
The Mayor and City Council shall hear public comment regarding a proposed street name change from DR Horton Drive to Homestead Drive within the Homestead North subdivision.
AGENDA ITEM DESCRIPTION
An application has been filed with the City of Maricopa by SLV Homestead, LLC, requesting renaming of existing DR Horton Drive to Homestead Drive (case #ADR14-06). This street is generally defined as a collector road; it runs within the Homestead North community, connecting Porter Road to the west and Smith Enke Road to the north, and is within the City of Maricopa incorporated limits.
On March 18, 2014, the City Council adopted a Street Name Change Policy through Resolution 14-11. Accordingly, SLV Homestead, LLC has submitted an application and met the provisions established therein (Resolution 14-11), including public notification sent to all adjacent property owners within 300 feet of the collector street, a Public Hearing newspaper advertisement, and also posting Public Hearing signs within the subdivision to inform the residents. Per Resolution 14-11, a public hearing is required for a street name change.
In addition, staff sent out notice to area agencies (including Ak-Chin), and a Technical Advisory Committee meeting was held May 27 to inform all utility and emergency services providers. At the time of writing this report, staff has not received any letters or comments in opposition from the public, utility providers, or other agencies.
This item will be presented by Zoning Administrator Kazi Haque.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the Mayor and City Council hear public comment regarding a proposed street name change from DR Horton Drive to Homestead Drive within the Homestead North subdivision.
