AN ORDINANCE CONCERNING THE CHANGE OF NAME OF
CHIPPENDALE STREET To CHATEAU MEADOWS DRIVE.
The City Council of the City of Eugene finds that:
one of the owners of property contiguous to Chippendale
Street, which is located east of Arcadia Street and north of
Harlow Road, within the City of Eugene, has requested that the
name of Chippendale Street be changed to Chateau Drive because
residents are subjected to embarrassin comments from individuals
. g
associating the name of the street with the Chippendale male
dancers of California.
There are currently four homes located on Chippendale Street
which will b e affected by the proposed name change. All
residents have been provided with notice and have submitted
written consents to the street name change.
The request has been reviewed by City staff, and the Council
has been advised that the name does not conflict with the names
of any other street within the City. Some confusion may occur
with a s imi 1 arly named street in the City of Springfield,
however, and it has been recommended that the name be changed to
Chateau Meadows Drive. The postal service has advised that the
four affected residential properties will be required to place
forwarding orders for a change in their existing addresses, which
the parties have agreed to do.
No opposition to the change of name has been received, other
than the above referred to recommendation and the comment from
the postal service.
The applicant has asserted a belief that the change of name
will eliminate the embarrassment residents currently experience
when cashing checks or giving their addresses to others.
Notice of a public hearing to be held on the 24th day of
July, 1989 at the Council Chambers, City Hall, Eugene, Oregon, at
7:30 o'clock p.m, was duly published in the Register Guard, a
newspaper of general circulation within the City, at least once
during the week immediately preceeding the hearing, to-wit, on
July 20, 1989.
NOW, THEREFORE,
THE CITY OF EUGENE DOES ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. The name and designation of Chippendale Street,
located East of Arcadia Street and North of Harlow Road within
the City of Eugene is hereby changed to Chateau Meadows Drive.
