FROM: Tracey M. Vacek, Senior Planner
DATE: January 7, 2025
SUBJECT:
An Ordinance Changing the Name of Elm Street to West Park Avenue located between N. Lake Street and N. River Street located in Kane County, Aurora, Illinois
PURPOSE:
The City of Aurora is requesting a street name change of Elm Street to West Park Avenue located between N. Lake Street and N. River Street in Kane County, Aurora, Illinois.
BACKGROUND:
In the mid 90's the City of Aurora reconfigured the intersection of West Park Avenue and N. Lake Street to align with Elm Street on the east side of N. Lake Street. At that time, the City also changed the name of Elm Street to West Park Avenue. Kane County recently brought to the City's attention that this street name change was never formally changed with the County. Therefore, this street name change will change that portion of Elm Street to West Park Avenue.
DISCUSSION:
The Street Name Change will allow the city to continue to use West Park Avenue.
IMPACT STATEMENT :
The Street Name Change will have no impact as the property owners are currently using West Park Avenue. Without this change it will impact a large apartment as the address would need to be changed.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
The Staff recommends APPROVAL to the Ordinance Changing the Name of Elm Street to West Park Avenue located between N. Lake Street and N. River Street located in Kane County, Aurora, Illinois.
