RESOLUTION NO. 53-04

A RESOLUTION RENAMING GLENWOOD AVENUE

IN ORCHARD MESA TO GLENWOOD DRIVE

Recitals.

The existing street name of Glenwood Avenue located in Orchard Mesa between Linden Avenue and Palisade Street is causing some confusion with our emergency response providers. The street name of Glenwood Avenue is a duplication of the street located one block north of North Avenue. The Grand Junction Fire Department and the residents request the name change to Glenwood Drive.

Section 6.2.B.3.5 states that existing streets and roads not conforming or inconsistent to the addressing system shall be made conforming as the opportunity occurs. The benefit derived by the community would be the alleviation of confusion for our emergency response providers. The proposed name change will not impact adjacent land uses.

The proposal is in conformance with the Growth Plan and requirements of the Zoning and Development Code.

NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF GRAND JUNCTION, COLORADO:

That the name of the right-of-way of Glenwood Avenue in Orchard Mesa, as described in this resolution is hereby changed to Glenwood Drive.

ADOPTED AND APPROVED THIS 16th day of June, 2004.

ATTEST:
