CITY OF APPLE VALLEY Dakota County, Minnesota March 24, 1983 Page 3 The Council received a memo from Rick Kelley, dated March 17, 1983, concern- STREET NAME ing a request for a Street name change from 120th Street to Fraction Lane CHANGE REQUEST in Beckman's First Addition. John Gretz reviewed the request and said it does not comply with the County Street Naming and Numbering System which the City has adopted. Ken Pallas, a property owner in Beckman's First Addition, commented on the request and the recommendation of the Historical Committee supporting it. He distributed copies of a letter, dated March 18, 1983, from the Dakota County Planning Department stating that because this is a private street, the County ordinance does not apply. Mr. Gretz said he has reviewed the ordinance and it does not differentiate between public and private streets and the County must approve street name changes requested by the City. The Mayor asked for the City Attorney's comments on this. Mr. Sheldon said he has not reviewed the ordinance, but routinely approving name changes could be setting a negative precedent for the future. Lt. Erickson, of the Police Department, was present and said the Department would be opposed to the change especially if it set a precedent and oc- curred more often. Too many deviations from the system would cause problems in locating addresses. MOTION: of Holton, seconded by Overgard, adopting a resolution requesting FRACTION LANE the Dakota County Board to approve a street name change from 120th NAME CHANGE Street to Fraction Lane in Beckman's First Addition and in the e- vent the County Street Name Ordinance does not apply to this request, the change is hereby approved by the'City Council. Alan Kohls, of the Historical Committee, was present and pointed out some exceptions to the street naming system that already exist in the City and said this would be a legiti- mate exception. Agnes Scott was present and agreed. Councilmember Humphrey said he would like an opportunity to review the County ordinance before making a decision on this request.
