From: Historic Commission Subject: Heritage Street Name List About a year ago, certain members of the Ashland Historic Commission and Planning Staff were informally discussing some of the street names being used for Ashland's new streets. Although some of the new street names were not inappropriate, the group concluded that it would be proper to have an "official" street name list giving a developer an opportunity to choose from an extensive list made up of names which represent Ashland's heritage. The following month, the issue was brought to the entire Commission as a discussion item. Each member agreed that a "Heritage Street Name List" should be created and that Terry Skibby and Jim Lewis would complete the research and finalize a list. After a number of meetings at the Ashland Library and pouring through numerous resources, a draft list of names was created. The draft list than was circulated through the Fire and Public Work Departments for their review. Each department eliminated names which were repetitive or sounded similar to existing street names Within the general vicinity of Ashland. The final list was then created and is attached to this memo. The Historic Commission hopes the City Council Will formerly recognize the list by adopting it as the City's official street name list. Of course this wouldn't prohibit the use of other names, it would give the impression as the City's preferred street name list. Members of the Historic Commission Will be in attendance at the Council meeting to answer any questions.
