ResoluUon to rename a portion of Fort Dent Way
Community and Parks minutes 4/13/04
To: City Council
From: Lucy Lauterbach
Date: April 16, 2004
Subject: Fort Dent Way Name Change
One more time, we need a new street address and therefore we need to change the name of a
portion of Fort Dent Way. Where the street tums left (north) over the bridge to go to the sports
fields and the new Starfire Sports facility is the part of the street that needs to be renamed, and
the logical name is Starfire Way.
The Fire Marshall found when Starfire applied for an address for their new building, there wasn't
an address that the building could use unless they had a ½ added to their address, which the Post
Office discourages. A better solution is to rename the part of the road that tums over the bridge
to the new sports center, Starfire Way.
The Community and Parks Committee recommended this change at their April 13th meeting.

3. Renaming a Portion of Fort Dent Way Don Tomaso discovered addressing the new
Starfire building was not possible to do in a logical manner. He suggested renaming the small
turn off of Fort Dent Way as Starfire Way. The Committee wanted to discuss Road or Way, but
Don said Starfire wants it to be Starfire Way. They are anxious for the change. Recommend
resolution to Regular Meeting.
