This request was made in <br />conjunction with the proposed widening of Canada Road and the alignment with East Boulevard <br />in the City of Deer Park. The name change would unify the entire road through La Porte and on <br />into Pasadena. <br /> <br />Should the name change be approved, the affected properties (ten tracts) along Canada Road <br />would be re-addressed accordingly and would correspond to the addressing sequence in Deer <br />Park and Pasadena. Utility Companies, property owners, neighboring cities and the Post Office <br />have been notified of the proposed change. The Post Office stated verbally this is no problem. <br />For one year, they will keep dual address. <br /> <br />A courtesy mail out was made to the owners of above properties affected by the proposed name change. <br />Two responses were received, both against the proposed name change. There were two speakers at the <br />meeting. One voiced against the name change due to its historical background. While, the pastor of a <br />church at Carlow Street voiced in favor of the move as it will unify the street and it will be much easier <br />for the visitors. <br /> <br />On May 20, 2004, the Commission held a public hearing considering this name change of Canada Road <br />to East Boulevard. By a 6-0 vote, the Commission forwards a recommendation that City Council <br />approves the proposed renaming of Canada Road to East Boulevard. <br /> <br />Action Reauired bv Council: <br />1. Hold public hearing. <br />2. Consider taking action on recommendation for approval by the P&Z for renaming Canada <br />Road to East Boulevard. <br /> <br />ADDfoved fOf City Council Aeenda <br /> <br />i9!/~~~a~ <br />ebra Feazelle, ity Mana <br /> <br />& -1-()~ <br /> <br />Date <br />
