HomeMy WebLinkAboutORD 2007-66 - Renaming Street CR102An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Georgetown, Texas, renaming a
portion of CR 102 to Lawhon Lane; renaming a second portion of CR 102 to White
Eagle Pass; repealing conflicting ordinances and resolutions; including a severability
clause; and establishing an effective date.
Whereas, on January 24, 2006, the City adopted an ordinance establishing a uniform
addressing and street naming policy for the City; and
Whereas, due to annexation of areas that include portions of CR 102 Right of Way, the
continued use of the name "CR 102" on the newly annexed portion is inconsistent with the City's
street naming policy;
Whereas, due to the construction of SH 130, the former ROW of CR 102 was split into two
separate sections of roadway, thereby requiring a separate name for each segment;
Whereas, the City Council of the City of Georgetown finds that it is in the public's best
interest to resolve these inconsistencies by assigning names to the subject streets in a manner
consistent with the City's street naming policy.
