[Adopted 1-4-2016 by L.L. No. 3-2020]
A Village street may be designated with an honorary name either
by petition signed by at least 70% of the number of owners of real
property (as shown on the last tax roll) adjoining the street or portion
of street proposed for such designation, or on the initiative of the
Board of Trustees.
The following factors shall be used for consideration of a street
or portion thereof to be designated with an honorary name:
A. The person to be honored shall be deceased;
B. The length of time the person resided in the Village of Port Chester;
C. The person's tie or connection to the street to be named;
D. The historical significance of the person and his/her contributions
and accomplishments at the local, state or national level;
E. The person's personal qualities and character; and
F. Any other relevant factor that would demonstrate extraordinary and
highly acclaimed involvement linked to the Village.
Upon review of a particular matter, the Board of Trustees may,
in its discretion, designate a street or portion thereof with an honorary
name and impose such conditions as it may deem appropriate. Such action
shall be in the form a resolution.
