Recommendation:
Continue the public hearing to consider a street name change for
the westerly portion of Greene Way, to a date uncertain.
Discussion:
On December 8, 2005 City Council adopted a resolution setting a public hearing date of
January 12, 2006 to consider a street name change for the westerly portion of Greene
Way to Tierra del Sol. At the Council meeting of January 12, 2006 the item was
continued to the meeting of February 9, 2006 to allow staff to meet with the residents
and Fire Marshal and to make further determinations regarding this issue.
Staff has since learned that the two southeasterly residents would like to request a
separate name for the section of roadway leading to their homes in order to avoid future
confusion; however, this name has not yet been agreed upon. Staff has additionally
learned that the Desert Cities Baptist Church, which will be affected by the name
change, plans to request reimbursement from the City for certain expenses incurred in
such a change; however, this request has �ot been formally received.
Staff believes there is merit to both of tt-�ese issues and requests that more time be
allowed for further discussion and investigation.

complete recommendation may be made at a future date.

On December 8, 2005, City Council adopted a resolution setting a public hearing date of
January 12, to consider a street name change for the westerly portion of Greene Way to
Tierra del Sol.
The residents have identified an issue with the name of this section of Greene Way and
requested the name be changed to Tierra del Sol.
Greene Way appears to be a public street for approximately 120 feet from the terminus
of Edgehill Drive to the bridge over the Palm Valley Channel but is actually on CVWD
right of way. Of the five homes located across the channel, three have Edgehill Drive
addresses while two have Willow Street addresses. The Desert Cities Baptist Church
also has an Edgehill Drive address, as do two CVWD facilities, while the tennis courts at
this location have a Greene Way address. Staff has contacted all affected property
owners and a legal notice was published in the Desert Sun.
Therefore, staff recommends that City Council adopt Resolution No. for a street
name change for the westerly portion of Greene Way to Tierra del Sol.

Tanuary 10, 2006
I live at 45-875 Edgehill Road in Palm Desert. There is a name change
pending before you regarding this street. I have no objection to the name
change except for my house which is the only house on the road where I
live. I have had lots of trouble with people not finding my house including
on occasion when I have had to call the police because of prowlers. On the
attached overview, the red line indicates the proposed name change and the
green line is my road which is the only entry to my house. Right now we all
have the same street name (Edgehill Road). I think it would be very helpful
if the road that I live on would be given another name. Since it's a water
district road that I live on (I have an easement) I could just pick another
name and notify the post office. Then I could post a direction arrow and
street name to avoid confusion. I think the overview points out the problem
very clearly.
I apologize for not attending but we are out of town. Thanks.
