Explanation
The Public Service Department, Transportation Division, recently received a request from Reverend Cleophus Kee of the Greater 12th Church requesting that McCloud Road, east of Fairwood Avenue, from Frebis Avenue north to Gates Street, to be changed to Thelma B. Kee Place in honor of his late wife's ministry to the community. There are two right-of-ways currently named McCloud Road within the same postal zone and renaming the above reference right-of-way Thelma B. Kee Place will eliminate this safety issue. The renaming of this right-of-way will not adversely affect any property owners as no addresses have been issued off of either street. The following legislation authorizes the proposed name change.
