Resolution
ITEM:
Discussion and possible action on any and all matters regarding Resolution No. 2067. A resolution of the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Luis, Arizona, directing and authorizing the roadway name change of Bradley Holcom Place to Bruce Jackson Place. (Jose A. Guzman, Director of Planning and Zoning)
SUMMARY:
City Administration recommends City Council to rename Bradley Holcom Place. This roadway was originally named to commemorate a local real estate developer when the subdivision was created. Mr. Holcom is now a convicted felon who was sentenced in federal court for wire fraud.
This can be done by resolution, as per Section 4.1 of the City of San Luis Roadway Naming and Addressing Policy, that states "City Council may change the name of any roadway within the City if the roadway name is identical or similar to another roadway name in the City of San Luis, if one continuous roadway is known by more than one name, if a roadway is different from the official name in common use, for commemorative purposes, or for other just cause. "
The City of San Luis does not condone crime within its city limits, therefore the Planning & Zoning Department agrees with the recommendation made by City Administration. This item was presented to the Planning and Zoning Commission during their regular meeting of February 12, 2019 and they agreed that the roadway should be renamed.
It is befitting and proper to rename Bradley Holcom Place to a name suitable with the integrity and pride of the City of San Luis. In this case, staff's recommendation is to commemorate Bruce Jackson. Mr. Jackson was a longtime local business owner of Western Ace Hardware which was the first store in the City to provide credit to residents. He served as a council member for the City of San Luis when the City became incorporated in 1979 with its first administration. He was a United States Navy Veteran who served during the Korean War.
As per Section 4.5 of the Roadway Naming and Addressing Policy, city staff will provide notification of this name change to the affected property owners, delivery and utility companies, Yuma County, the San Luis Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP) for 9-1-1, City of San Luis Fire and Police Departments. The Public Works Department will be informed to ensure that the roadway signs are replaced within a reasonable period of time.
