Agenda Report #
TO: Mayor and Council
SUBJECT: Street Name Change
INITIATED BY: Engineering Department
Recommendation: Approve the ordinance renaming Midland Avenue to Ashley
Station Boulevard.
Background: The Integral Group, the developer of Ashley Station, has
requested Midland Avenue be changed to Ashley Station Boulevard. Midland Avenue
is currently a short section of a street on both sides of Talbotton Road. The
Integral Group has contacted all adjoining property owners and they concur with
the street name change.
Analysis: In order to be consistent and prevent a name change along the
roadway, it is recommended Midland Avenue be changed to Ashley Station
Boulevard. None of the adjoining property owners have a Midland Avenue address.
Financial Considerations: Street name and traffic control signs are still being
installed in this development by the developer. The new street name signs will
be installed by the developer within Ashley Station. Funds from the Traffic
Engineering's Budget will be used to install new street signs to reflect the
name change outside the development.
Legal Considerations: Council must pass an ordinance approving the name change.
Recommendations/ Actions: Approve the ordinance renaming Midland Avenue to
Ashley Station Boulevard.
