PlanningBoard | 2006-07-24 | 4 | 8-A Proposed Recommendation to Rename Tinker Avenue to Willie Stargell Avenue (DV). President Cunningham advised that a speaker slip in favor of Item 8-A had been received. The public hearing was opened. Ms. Diane Lichtenstein, 633 Sand Hook, spoke in support of renaming Tinker Avenue to Willie Stargell Avenue. She noted that streets available for renaming had been included in the staff report, and she suggested that in keeping with community street name conventions (flowers on Bay Farm Island, and bird names in Harbor Bay), the residential streets in the grid be considered to be renamed in a similar fashion. The public hearing was closed for Board discussion. Member Ezzy Ashcraft believed that the Historical Advisory Board was responsible for street naming, rather than the Planning Board. Mr. Thau noted that the Historic Advisory Board could place street names on the list, and the Planning Board could recommend to City Council whether the name was appropriate for the street. M/S Cook/Ezzy Ashcraft and unanimous to adopt Planning Board Resolution No. PB-06-24 to recommend to Council to rename Tinker Avenue to Willie Stargell Avenue.
