Subject Property owner's request to-renaniel Brushy Creek Court to oath Bluford Avenue
(District.3 Firstner),
Background Summary:
Heller Brothers Groves platted its property on the south and west of the intersection of Old Winter
Garden Road and Professional Parkway as the West End Professional Park subdivision in 1995. At this
time, Old Winter Garden Road turned north and extended to West Colonial Drive opposite South Bluford
Avenue. A cul de sac street named Brushy Creek Court was created to provide access to the new
subdivision. When Old Winter Garden Road was reconstructed and extended to Maguire Road in 2006, ,
the original portion that turned north to the intersection of Colonial Drive (SR 50) was renamed as South
Bluford Avenue. The south end of Bluford Avenue was moved to coincide with the alignment of Brushy
Creek Court, which then became the southern leg of the signalized intersection of South Bluford Avenue
and Old Winter Garden Road. The name of Professional Parkway was changed to Old Winter Garden
Road as a result of the realignment, but the cul de sac retained the name of Brushy Creek Court.
Heller Brothers Groves recently requested, through their authorized agent, that the city rename Brushy
Creek Court as South Bluford Avenue. In addition to making the street easier to find, this change is
consistent with the City's Land Development Code because it will assign the same name to continuous
street segments. The renaming of this street segment is concurrent with an ongoing replatting and
development review process for the Heller Brothers Groves property, and affects no parties other than
the requestor.
Issue:
Should staff move forward with the process for renaming Brushy Creek Court as South Bluford Avenue?
•
Recommendation:
Staff recommends the Mayor and City Commission direct staff to proceed with the street renaming
process by adopting the resolution to rename Brushy Creek Court as South Bluford Avenue.
Attachments:
• Map showing location of Brushy Creek Court.
• Proposed Resolution to rename Brushy Creek Court.
• Request to rename street from owner's representative.
Financial Impact:
Staff time to prepare and transmit the required notifications is the only cost to the city for the
recommended action.
