Analysis
This request is being initiated by Lockheed Martin to honor the years of service of a retiring supervisor.
The street is privately owned. No properties are addressed off of it. Consequently, no addresses will need to be changed. Renaming the street will have little to no impact on the provision of emergency services.
Lockheed Martin is the only property owner within the 300 ft. buffer of the street; no property owner notifications were required to be sent.
FINANCIAL CONSIDERATION:
No impact on City funds is anticipated by this request. The street is privately owned and Lockheed Martin is responsible for sign fabrication.
