Amy Miller, 9757 45"' Street North (Petitioners) to change the name of a portion of Julep

in the Tapestry at Charlotte's Grove subdivision to 45"' Street North as documented in the
attached Exhibit "N', and
WHEREAS, the City Council approved the Final Plat for Tapestry at Charlotte's Grove
at its December 7, 2012 meeting; and
WHEREAS, the Final Plat provided for an access road into the development that
reconfigured the existing intersection of Julep Road North and 45"' Street and that named this
new access road Julep Avenue North to continue an existing street name into the subdivision,
and
WHEREAS, three existing homes (Petitioners) along the new portion of Julep Avenue
North all currently share a private driveway that provides access to Julep Avenue North; and
WHEREAS, the Petitioners homes retained their existing 45th Street North addresses,
even thought their driveway no longer connects to 45`x' Street North, and
WHEREAS, the Petitioners have requested to change the name of Julep Avenue North to
45"' Street North in order to correct the discrepancy between their addresses and the street on
which their driveway is located; and
WHEREAS, the street name change will not affect any existing or future homes or cause
any existing addresses to be reassigned; and
WHEREAS, the City Planner reviewed and examined the signatures on said request and
determined that such signatures constituted all landowners that use the afore mentioned driveway
for access; and
WHEREAS, the City of Lake Elmo provided written notice to all property owners within
the Tapestry at Charlotte's Grove Subdivision informing them that the City Council would be
considering the street renaming request at its June 19, 2012 meeting, and all interested and
affected persons were given an opportunity to voice their concerns and be heard; and
WHEREAS, the Council in its discretion has determined that the street name change will
benefit the public interest because:
1) The entrance road to Tapestry at Charlotte's Grove is more closely follows an east/west
alignment than north/south alignment and represents a logical extension of 45th Street
]North.
2) All property owners with access to the street to be renamed have petitioned for the
change.
3) The change will allow the Petitioners existing addresses to match, the street name onto
which their driveway accesses and will not require any further readdressing of existing
lots or houses.
NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE
CITY OF LADE ELMO, COUNTY OF WASHINGTON MINNESOTA, that the Petitioners
request for a change in street name is hereby approved.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Mayor and City Administrator are hereby
authorized to sign all documents necessary to effectuate the intent of this resolution.
