§ 32-6. Petition required to change road name; hearing.  


Latest version.
  • Any road name in the county may officially be changed upon petition to the address coordinator stating the existing road name, five (5) proposed names and signatures of sixty (60) percent of the property owners whose property is serviced by such road. These names will be studied to assure they do not duplicate or sound like any existing road names in the county. If one of these road names does not conflict with any existing road names, this will be submitted to the board of supervisors in the form of a resolution of intention. The resolution of intention shall be set for public hearing and notice of such hearing shall be given by posting notice in at least three (3) places along the road or roads proposed to be affected, such posting to be complete at least ten (10) days before the day set for the hearing. At the time set for the hearing or at any time to which the hearing may be continued, the board shall hear and consider proposals to change the name of such road and upon adoption of the change thereof, shall make a resolution officially designating the name for said road; thereafter, such road shall be known by the name so designated.
