OLD BUSINESS Road Name Change - Barringer Court to Hammill Court - Continuation of Public Hearing - 6230 p.m. On November 20, 2000, the Board held a public hearing to consider a petition requesting the renaming of Barringer Court to Hammill Court. Several residents at that time spoke against the road name change. The Board voted to continue the public hearing and asked staff to work with residents to look at options for other road names. Mr. Jonathan Marshall, Planning Services Director, reported that none of the residents who live or take access on Barringer Court attended a scheduled meeting on December 14. However, a majority of persons signing the original renaming petition have submitted letters requesting the removal of their names from the petition. With the removal of those names, Mr. Marshall stated the petition no longer has the required percentage of property owners to request a road name change. He confirmed that Barringer Court is a duplicate road name; however, he stated different address ranges would keep the roads separate for E-911 purposes. At 6:38 p.m., Chairman Fennel re-opened the public hearing concerning the renaming of Barringer Court and asked if anyone wished to address the Board regarding the proposed road name change. Ms. Willene Campbell, resident of 10055 Barringer Court, asked that the road name remain the same. She stated she was also speaking for other family members who reside on Barringer Court.
