Disposition Summary
Approve the name change from Andes Road to Hitching Post Drive as requested by Knox County Engineering & Public Works.
Staff Recommendation
Approve the name change from Andes Road to Hitching Post Drive as requested by Knox County Engineering & Public Works.
1. The Knox County Department of Engineering and Public Works has requested to change the street name for a section of Andes Road due to the realignment of Schaad Road.
2. Ball Camp Pike will no longer run contiguously through this area. A portion of Ball Camp Pike is being removed, so there will be non-contiguous sections of Ball Camp Pike, which does not comply with the Knox County Street Naming Ordinance. The portion of Ball Camp Pike being removed runs from just south of the Byington Solway Rd intersection to the northeast point of parcel 091PA037. This proposal is to rename the portion of Andes Road to Hitching Post Drive since it will connect to Hitching Post Drive to the west (see the red road segment encircled in purple in Exhibit B).
3. Addressing staff coordinated with Knox County Engineering and Public Works to determine appropriate street names for these segments based on the logical extension of connecting streets.
4. The proposed street name changes from Ball Camp Pike and Andes Road to Hitching Post Drive will require three addresses to be assigned.
5. Planning has received no objections to the renaming of the right-of-way.
6. The name change meets all requirements of Knox County's Code of Ordinances, Chapter 54,Article II, Section 54-40.What's next?
