ITEM # 4
DATE: 03/0
COUNCIL ACTION FORM
SUBJECT:. RENAME REMNANT OF- OLD AIRPORT ROAD TO GREEN HILLS
DRIVE
BACKGROUND:
Recently it has been brought to the attention of staff that the Police Department is
having parking enforcement issues along the 1900 Block of Airport Road. The section of
roadway is located on the east side of University Boulevard across from Green Hills
Drive and was a remnant of the old Airport Road alignment left-over from Phase I of the
ISU Research Park. Upon further investigation it was found that at the time of the final
plat (see Attachment 1), the roadway was left as an unnamed right-of-way. Therefore,
staff is recommending that the 1900 block of "Old" Airport Road be changed to Green
Hills Drive.
ALTERNATIVES:
1. Direct the City Attorney to draft an ordinance to rename the 1900 block of Old Airport
Road to Green Hills Drive.
2. Do not take any further action on this item at this time.
CITY MANAGER RECOMMENDATION:
Not only will this name change help with parking enforcement, it will also help
distinguish the street from Airport Road to the south and east. Therefore, it is the
recommendation of the City Manager that the City Council adopt Alternative No. 1, as
described above.
