EDC Minutes <br /> May 20, 2016 <br /> Page 10 of 10 <br /> Coordinator Beeman contacted around 90 businesses asking them their opinion on <br /> changing the name to Mounds View Boulevard and how this would affect their business. <br /> Overwhelmingly, the businesses were in support of the name change. As a result, the <br /> City Council has decided to change the name to Mounds View Boulevard. Beeman also <br /> contacted the U.S. Post Office and they confirmed that mail under all of the alternate <br /> addresses will continue to be delivered. The City will need to notify them when the <br /> change occurs and they will put it into their database. Once the database with the new <br /> name change and alternate addresses has been updated, the New Brighton post office <br /> will automatically get the update and mail should not be disrupted. The name change will <br /> take effect sometime in June of this year. Commissioner Freichels asked if the amount <br /> of money required to pay for the new signs has remained the same. Beeman thought <br /> that the amount would remain the same. <br /> Mounds View Business Council Meeting <br /> Beeman informed the Commission that the next Mounds View Business Council meeting <br /> will be held at the Community Center June 8. The speaker will be Ron Wencl, Director <br /> from U.S. Geological Survey. <br /> Other Upcoming Events/Reports <br /> Movies in the Park will begin June 16 at dusk following the Music in the Park.
