3.90.070 Street Naming.
A. All new public and private streets must be named consistent with this chapter.
B. The name shall be limited to a maximum of two words not including the directional or street suffix.
C. Street names shall be continuous. When a new development puts in a street that connects to an existing street, the existing street name will be continued.
D. The street name shall not be a duplicate of a street name already in use (unless it is a small court off of that street), even if the suffix (avenue, street, etc.) is different, unless it is likely that the street sections will be connected in the future. New streets shall be designated as numbered streets only if they fall on the gridline and it is likely that they will connect with another section of the numbered street. Public and private streets shall have the following designations:
1. Continuous north-south streets shall be designated “street.”
2. Continuous east-west streets shall be designated “avenue.”
3. Short or interrupted streets shall be designated “place.”
4. Short or interrupted streets with no outlet shall be designated “court.”
5. Streets that intersect the same street twice at different locations shall be designated “loop.”
6. Short or interrupted diagonal streets shall be designated “way.”
7. Continuous meandering streets shall be designated “drive.”
8. Short or interrupted meandering streets shall be designated “lane.”
9. Streets that flow in a circular pattern and intersect the same street at only one location shall be designated “circle.”
10. A court that comes off a street at a perpendicular may take that street’s name, but with a “court” designation.
11. Public alleys shall not be named except in special situations with City approval.
12. Designations such as “highway,” “road,” and “terrace” may be used only in special situations with City approval. [Ord. NS-2180, 2012]
