HomeMy WebLinkAboutC.054.93009_0258 (2)Commissioner Boone asked how much difference was in the old
and new addresses.
Jerry Lundy advised that numerically there was not much
difference. Normally, the addressing that they do is odd -even
always in a certain direction. This subdivision would be in
reverse to this, so not only will there be a numerical difference,
but also odd -even on different sides of the street.
John Green, a resident of the area, stated that most of the
lots in the subdivision were sold. Some residents have businesses
in their homes and they do not see the need to change their house
numbers.
Commissioner Hamby advised that she sympathized with the
group, however, she too owned a business operated out of her home
and it will be necessary for her to change letterhead, etc. Also,
she didn't understand why the group was protesting when most of the
people in the County would be issued new addresses.
Commissioner Haire stated that if the board approved the
residents' request that a precedent would be set.
Mr. Lundy advised that there is no reason as to why the new
numbers should be assigned again. They are geographically assigned
to pinpoint that specific location in Iredell County.
Mrs. Lillian Peabody of 205 Nottingham Circle stated that she
came here from Arizona in 1986. The area she lived in did a house
numbering project and changed some subdivisions, however, they did
not disrupt areas that were already designated with house numbers.
Marilyn Lietzke, also a resident in the subdivison, advised
that some of the numbers issued by Gaddum were presently in use.
Commissioner Madison asked about how much difficulty and time
would be needed to accomodate this request as well as from other
subdivisions. He also asked if Mooresville and Statesville's
numbering system was the same as what the county was using.
Mr. Lundy said that Statesville and Mooresville use an odd -
even system similar to Caddum's program. A program would have to
be written if the computer finishes up the numbering (for
Nottingham) and a different program would have to be written for
every other subdivision in the county that makes this request,
unless every number is manually entered.
MOTION by commissioner Madison to deny the residents' request
and continue with the Caddum System of numbering.

PETITION FOR ROAD MAINTENANCE ABANDONMENT FOR STATS ROAD 1111
(GARDEN ROAD) FROM N.C. DEPT. OF TRANSPORTATION:
Mr. Lundy advised that this road leads off of Brawley School
Road. It has no residences and Crescent Resources owns the
property on both sides of the road. The Department of
Transportation does not abandon right-of-ways; this is the County's
responsibility. The DOT only abandons maintenance. Basically,
Crescent has made this request to DOT to abandon maintenance on
this state road. Mr. Lundy does not see a problem with this
request, and he further noted that eventually a request will be
issued for abandonment of right-of-way.
MOTION from Commissioner Madison to approve this petition for
road maintenance abandonment on S.R. 1111.
VOTING: Ayes - 5; Mays - 0.
