Item/Subject Accepting Nicole Court as a Public Way and Street
Responsible Department: Engineering
Commentary:
In 1976 a subdivision of land located on the somberly side of Houton Avenue was approved. This
subdivision was called "College Park" and included two proposed public streets known as "North Road"
and "South Roed". "South Road" was accepted as a public way in 1986 and named Cynthia Chile.
"North Road" was conveyed to the City but apparently never formally accepted as a public street. Both
streets were constructed to acceptable standards and have been maintained by the City. Recently, the
owner ofproperty adjacent to "North Road" has requested that it be formally accepted as a public street,
and that it be named Nicole Court in order to avoid confusicnwith "North Sneer" which is an coming
City sheet. The attached Council Order authorizes acceptance of Nicole Court as a Public Way and
Street. A sketch showing the street location is attached

Dear Tim:
Thank you for taking the time to research the North Road cul de sac issue. In fight of
there being allorth Street in the city I would like to make the suggestion that the name of
the cul de sac be changed to Nicole Court. This would go in live with the next street
being Cynthia Circle. I appreuate your time in this matter so far and look forward to
hearing from you regarding the Susi determination of this matter.
