BACKGROUND: On February 21, 1989, the Board of County Commissioners adopted a Naming of County Owned Buildings and Facilities Policy to direct the County's process for the naming of County buildings and facilities. The Board and County staff have utilized this policy on multiple occasions during the last 19 years for the naming of County buildings and facilities. The policy was revised and approved by the Board of Commissioners on November 9, 2005. This action primarily removed a provision regarding the County Manager making a recommendation to the BOCC regarding potential building and facility names. The revision also addressed the potential naming of rooms or portions of a facility in compliance with the policy: Some questions have recently been raised regarding the policy, and staff is presenting the policy to the Board so that any clarifications can be made and/or issues addressed and to allow the County to move forward with future naming activities. FINANCIAL IMPACT: There is no financial impact associated with the review and discussion of the policy. RECOMMENDATION(S): The Manager recommends that the Board review and discuss the Naming of County Owned Buildings and Facilities Policy as revised and approved on November 9, 2005, and provide feedback to staff on any new proposed changes.
