67 CL-1862 New Business Item #: D. City Council Regular Meeting Meeting Date: 04/03/2018 Subject: From: COUNCIL ACTION Business Meeting: 04/03/2018 SUMMARY Resolution in Support of Danville Expressway Signage to Honor Wendell Scott Susan M. DeMasi, Clerk of Council Staff is investigating the possibility of naming the U.S. 58/29 Bypass in Danville in honor of Wendell Scott. Public Works learned that there are two ways to name a Virginia highway in honor of an individual. One is to petition the General Assembly to pass a bill into law naming the highway, the other is for the locality to request a name change from the Virginia Department of Transportation. BACKGROUND The City is currently investigating ways to honor individuals who have had a significant positive impact on Danville, the nation and the world. One of the ways to recognize individuals is to petition the Virginia Department of Transportation to name a section of highway in honor of a person. City staff has learned of the following process: 1. The request from the government should go to the Virginia Department of Transportation's (VDOT) local residency maintenance manager. The bridge or highway must not have been previously named by the General Assembly. 2. The local jurisdiction should provide the residency maintenance manager a resolution (sample attached) requesting the action. The resolution must indicate that the local jurisdiction requesting the naming will pay all costs for the signs denoting the name. 3. The residency maintenance manager forwards the request, with resolution, to VDOT's district office for review. 4. The district office forwards the request, with resolution, to the Maintenance Division administrator for review and action 5. VDOT's Maintenance Division prepares the necessary CTB resolution, ensures the action item is on the CTB agenda, and presents the request to the CTB. 6. After the CTB approves, the Maintenance Division notifies the district office and residency maintenance manager responsible for installing the signs. 7. The district office notifies the Maintenance Division when the signs are installed. RECOMMENDATION 67 of 70
