Information

Request/Subject

Resolution No. 21-02-02 to name a section of road in Tonto Basin as S. Bluebird Road

Background Information

Record of Survey 5187 has split a 12+ acre property into multiple lots with a defined access easement. Development of the parcels necessitated the creation of a named road for access and 911 purposes. The property owners have agreed to name the road and are consistent in their name that satisfies the 75% threshold of Section 806.A of Gila County Street Naming and Property Numbering Ordinance No. 11-03. The property owners were sent the public notice with a dissenting response date of February 8, 2021.

Evaluation

This road branches off of Forest Service Road 896 commonly referred to as the Bluebird Mine Road and is located in section 13 of T6N R11E on the East side of Tonto Creek. The recorded Record of Survey 5187 did not name the road but local reference established the Bluebird name based on the FS road. Section 804 of the Addressing Ordinance does limit similar-sounding names within the same zip code and N. Bluebird Rd was approved on the August 17 2020 Board Meeting but the address ranging assigned did not consider the possibility of extending the road name to the South. South Bluebird Road was deemed an acceptable alternative. The five property owners were polled on the suggested road name with only one party offering alternatives. The site plan, area map, road naming, and public notice are attached.

Conclusion

Naming this road in Tonto Basin is supported by Gila County Street Naming and Property Numbering Ordinance Number 11-03.

Recommendation

The Public Works Director recommends that the Board of Supervisors adopt Resolution No. 21-02-02 naming a road in the Tonto Basin area as S. Bluebird Rd.

Suggested Motion

Information/Discussion/Action to adopt Resolution No. 21-02-02 naming a road in the Tonto Basin area to be called S. Bluebird Road. (Steve Sanders)
