AN ORDINANCE RENAMING THAT PORTION OF PITTVIEW AVENUE
LYING WEST OF BURSELL ROAD AS "PITTVIEW COURT"
Recitals
1. As the result of a difference between the house-
numbering systems of Central Point and Jackson County, there are
presently two separate and distinct "900" blocks of Pittview
Avenue: One 900 block lying west of Bursell Road, and another
900 block on the eastern end of Pittview Avenue. This situation
with two separate 900 blocks has caused confusion.
2. ORS 227.120 sets forth the procedure for cities to
rename all or parts of streets within the city. Such procedure
includes consideration of the issue by the planning commission.
If the planning commission finds that renaming a street is in the
best interest of the city, the planning commission may recommend
to the city council that such renaming be effected. The city
council may then give public notice and conduct a hearing to
consider the issue.
3. On November 4, 1997, after considering the issue of the
two separate 900 blocks of Pittview Avenue, the Central Point
Planning Commission recommended to the City Council that that
portion of Pittview Avenue lying west of Bursell Road be renamed
"Pittview Court".
4. On December 4, 1997, the City Council held a duly-
advertised public hearing on the issue. The Council heard from
all interested persons and discussed the possible alternatives.
Now, therefore;
THE PEOPLE OF THE CITY OF CENTRAL POINT, OREGON, DO ORDAIN
AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. Pursuant to ORS 227.120, that portion of
Pittview Avenue lying west of Bursell Road, specifically, the 900
block of Pittview Avenue lying west of Bursell Road, is hereby
renamed "Pittview Court". The house numbers shall remain the
same.
Section 2. A certified copy of this ordinance shall be
filed for recording with the county recorder, assessor, and
surveyor.
