REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION <br />ITEM NO.: <br />DA’ <br />Department Approval: <br />Name Jeanne A. Mabusth <br />Title Building A Zoning Administrator <br />Administrator Reviewed:Agenda Section: <br />7oning <br />Item Description: #1862 Tlirec Star Trucking, 2590 Watertown Road - Private Road Name <br />Approval <br />List of Exhibits <br />A - Road Name Request <br />B - Hudson Directory <br />C - Plat Map <br />D • 8 Lot Plat <br />Three Sur Trucking has submitted three choices for naming of private road. We have been <br />advised by Mr. Fischer, the developer, that the owner, Mr. Suess, has specifically requested the <br />first choice, Truffala Trail (a place refereiKed in Dr. Suess children’s books). <br />Please review Exhibit B, the Hudson Directory reveals no conflicts with three choices of road <br />names. <br />Not one member of staff was able to relate to the name Truffala or the connections to the Suess <br />children’s books. Then again, staff was not aware of a special place, Cristofori Wo^s, <br />referenced in a song. <br />Lt. Cheswick of the Police Department and Jolin Gerhardson of the Public Works Department <br />have reviewed the road name choices and found Truffala to present problems with pronunciation <br />and spelling and are very concerned that in an emergency situation because of this difficulty may <br />result in loss of emergency time. Both found no problem with Monica Way or Dolores Drive. <br />Options of Action <br />Approval of first choice, Truffala Trail, as it was original owner’s first choice; or <br />Approval of Monica Way or Dolores Drive on the findings that they weald be easily identifiable <br />and create no misunderstandings or difficulty in understanding road name when used in <br />emergency situations.
