HomeMy WebLinkAboutRes 92-73 Street Name Change from Mayrn Court to Maryn Court INTEROFFICE MEMORANDUM CITY OF PALM DESERT TO: City Council and City Manager FROM: Richard J. Folkers, Assistant City Manager/Public Works Director SUBJECT: STREET NAME CHANGE FOR MAYRN COURT IN PRIMROSE II SUBDIVISION DATE: July 9, 1992 RECOMMENDATION: Waive further reading and adopt Resolution No. 9 2-73 setting a public hearing to consider a street name change for Mayrn Court. BACKGROUND: The Public Works Department received a letter from the developer of the Primrose II subdivision to assist in a request that a spelling error in one of the street names be corrected. It appears that the street name Maryn Court got changed to Mayrn Court when the final map was drawn. Thomas and Diane Schmidt were the original developers of the project and had named the street after their daughter Maryn. Diane Schmidt will pay for the new street name sign and reasonable costs to property owners who have purchased homes on this street. A letter received May 20, 1992, indicates only one property owner is currently affected and they have agreed to the name change. The Public Works staff recommends that the street name Mayrn Court be changed to Maryn Court. RIC ARD J. FO E .E.

F . Davidson on the final map. Th. street named "Mayrn Court " is supposed to be "Maryn Court . " This street 'we: named after my daughter, who I ' ve been telling for months about the strew that will be named after her . We had seen the incorrect spelling in th. sales office and have mentioned it a couple times to the gal in your Sale: office . I think she, and we , assumed the mistake was only on the plot plai in the office , Once I saw the street sign , I called Joe Gaugush at the cit: and discovered the error . It is not a earl j or deal to change a street mine, especially when the chanq. is so minor , We did it at Sandcastles . Al 1 that has 'to be done is for you as Hovey Assoc, . ( or whatever the owner entity is ) needs to send a brie' letter of request to the city ( Joe Gaugush in engineering ) asking ncl for t hr street name correction and explaining the reason . Joe sonde it to Cit.: Counci for approval and :it ' s a done deal . The only gl -ich is that any peopi . who have purchased al reedy -must also give their- permission . 1 underst an: that ono person has closed esc rovvr on 1:hat street and is, at this time , mo.vin! app l -i dnces i n . At this point they may not have sent out change of address notices to everyone. yet: . I would be happy to reimburse this person reesonabl e cost tor.. any stationary , etc . they nay have purchased , if that i : a consideration , So , t ire city needs just a letter signed by the buyer sayi ni it ' s O. K , with them to correct the name . If 1: h•i.s weren ' t such a big deal with my daughter I really wouldr► 't care sc much about this , but she has. been so excited about seeing this street e1g. that I hope you won ' t mind a little inconvenience to change t h ii r: . I third that Maryn tiri i l be much easier for your buyers to use than Mayrn , also . Please call me if you need any further information or if you would like tr discuss this , If this can be done quickly , there is little chance that i i will be much trouble for you or your buyers . Thanks for your help . Sincerely , Dana G.

Jack Cummings ���0-9-5L' / �- (,41945 Mayrn CourtWtki, 9-/ . Palm Desert , California 92260 -pcQ I ` Primrose II - Lot 13 , O GI Re : Street Name - Mayrn Court -.k'Dear Mr . and Mrs . Cummings : I am writing with a rather peculiar request related to your recent purchase at Primrose II . I will give you a capsule history of this tract so that you will understand my request . My husband and I processed the tentative tract map which created the project you now own a home in , Primrose II . We named one of the streets after our daughter , Maryn . During processing a mistake was made in the spelling of her name , and we didn ' t know it . The project was sold to the Hovley Associates group and processing continued . They were not aware of the misspelling and it was not discovered until I drove by and saw the new street sign ! My daughter cried and I was surprised , and I subsequently found out what had happened . The street name can be corrected very easily through the city of Palm Desert . There is no cost to you or the developer . I will pay for the street sign to be replaced . I will also be happy to pay for any costs you have incurred in printing stationary , or any other items with the name Mayrn Court , instead of Maryn Court . I would be happy to have printed announcements of your new address made up for mailing . In essence , the city and the developer are amenable to correcting the name , but I need your permission to process this correction . If this is O. K. , please sign and date at the bottom and return to me , or to Gigi or Michelle in the sales office at Primrose II . I would be more than happy to expand on this or provide any other information you need . Feel free to call me at 341 - 2392 . I live only a couple blocks from you at 75-701 Easy Street in Sandcastles , and can come over to explain also . Thank you for your time . I hope that this is not too inconvenient for you . Sincerely , Diane Schmidt I have read the above request and do not object to changing the street name MAYRN COURT to MARYN COURT, as was originally intended : `° ` (L, Signed : aj� �yi)� - - Date : #- - �- Date : .(/ld)/ Z--
