ISLAND COUNTY
COMMISSIONERS - MINUTES OF MEETING
SPECIAL
SESSION - DECEMBER 19, 2000
The Board of Island County Commissioners met in
Special Session on December 19, 2000, at 2:00 p.m. at Terrys Corner Fire
Station, 525 East North Camano Drive, Camano Island, WA. Chairman McDowell was absent; Commissioners Shelton and Thorn present. The special session was called for
the purpose of conducting a public hearing on Ordinance #C-113-00, renaming
various county roads on Camano Island.
Also
present were Joe Araucto, Island County Traffic Engineer; Rich Murphy, ICOM; and approximately
five citizens.
PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER ORDINANCE #C113-00
(R-48-00) IN THE MATTER OF RENAMING VARIOUS COUNTY ROADS ON CAMANO ISLAND
Public Hearing was held at 2:00 p.m. as scheduled
and advertised to consider Ordinance #C-113-99/R-48-00 in the Matter of Renaming
Various County Roads on Camano Island.
Joe Araucto
explained the County was removing the name of Bayview Lane, which was
used as an entrance to a County park without any addresses, and the name of Nellie Street north of North
Camano Drive. Homes on that portion of
Nellie Street are addressed off of North Camano Drive so no addresses would be
changed.
He stated the County proposed to rename East Lane to
Ocean Drive and to change Center Lane to Juniper Point Lane which would include
changing house numbers as well.
Commissioner Shelton asked why Center Lane was not renamed to Ocean Drive to continue it,
rather than change it to Juniper Point Lane.
Rich Murphy, ICOM, explained that a petition from residents was received
requesting to change Center Lane to Juniper Point Lane, which was found
acceptable to Emergency Services. He
clarified the Addressing Ordinance was constructed based on input from
dispatchers and once a second word was added, it was considered unique. Juniper Point Lane met the qualifications.
Commissioner Thorn asked if there was enough of a
break in the road to indicate a new street name. Mr. Araucto clarified that the
end of the former East Lane would be the beginning of Juniper Point Lane where
there was a sharp turn in the road. He
stated they would place the street name sign at that point.
Joan Cresap, 1316 Center Lane, Camano Island, stated she submitted the petition to rename
Center Lane to Juniper Pointe which was signed by almost everyone on Center
Lane. (She submitted additional names
into the record; copy on file.)
The residents were asked to
change Center Lane to Ocean Drive a few years ago, but no one was interested. Residents want to be identified as Juniper
Beach and agreed to Juniper Pointe.
The petition was submitted with
e added to Point. She understood
the County required Lane be added to the end to be called Juniper Pointe Lane. She noted that addresses were not aligned with the odd and even numbers mixed
up.
Mr. Araucto explained the addresses on the proposed
Juniper Pointe Lane would be renumbered to correct any discrepancies. The County will add e Point so as to read: Juniper Pointe Lane.
Commissioner
Thorn asked for a clarification when road, street, or avenue, etc. would be
used.
Mr. Murphy explained that according to the
ordinance, all roads require a classification.
Roads that dead end should have a classification of Lane, Court, Way,
Terrace, or Place, while through or
main streets use Road, Street, Avenue, or Drive.
Ray Cresap, 1316 Center Lane, Camano Island, asked
if all of Juniper Pointe Lane would become a County maintained road.
Mr. Murphy explained the private road extension of
Center Lane would be renamed Juniper Pointe Lane, but would still remain a private
road.
There were no public comments on the other proposed
road name changes.
By unanimous motion, the Board adopted Ordinance
#C-113-00/R-48-00 in the matter of renaming various county roads on Camano
Island, with one correction on Attachment A, Item 4, to add an e to Point to read as Juniper Pointe Lane.
