Diercks City of Palm Desert 73-510 Fred Waring Drive Palm Desert, CA 92260-2578 Re: Renaming 35th Avenue to Dick Kelly Drive Dear Mr. Diercks: While I will not be able to attend the March 10, 2011 hearing regarding the above - reference matter, I do want to express my strong and enthusiastic support for the proposed change. Dick Kelly's legacy stands on its own. For decades, Dick dedicated his life to the welfare of the City of Palm Desert and its residents. Renaming 35th Avenue in his honor is appropriate, and will result in minimal hardship or expense. Accordingly, I would urge the Council to approve the proposed change. Thank -you for your consideration.
