There was a question if anything further had been heard about the hurricane victim that was mentioned last month. Diana said she heard nothing f irthcr and had seen nothing more in the press or on the radio, Historical Street Names A thank you to Glory for all the work she had done in re-doing the forms. Tom asked about the non-approval letter, and if one was sent to the person nominated (if living), as well as the nominee. Glory said this could be done. Rose asked Glory about the Grand Reserve naming of the street that was McLellan, not McClellan, They are keeping their choice, and since the sound is too close to the historical name, this will then not be able to be used. Since the street sign for Godard had not yet been printed, this has been changed in the records to be correct when the sign is printed. Glory will send out letters to all who made nominations that we need more information on. There was a question as to how to get more nominees. A suggestion was made to ask the schools to do a class project. Rose suggested asking Council to discuss the possible changes in the wording. It was also suggested to check if it would be possible to go into the Legion or some other club with large numbers in attendance and have forms available to be filled out. Madonna suggested asking at Hillside, where her Mom is. Cele will make it a point to have a"Founder's Day" at the Golden Diners Deli in January to see if the seniors can come up with names for nomination, There was discussion on the wording of how many streets need to be historical names in each subdivision. Should it be 10% or a minimum of one street, due to small sizes of some.
