(1) <br /> Naming for the purpose of assigning addresses (typical green street name signs) or(2) renaming for the specific purpose <br /> of honoring a person or group. (special honorary signage) . Happy to discuss further. <br /> Scenario 1 Renaming for Addressing Purposes <br /> Please refer to NCGS 153A-239.1 authorizing counties to name or rename any road in unincorporated areas. N.C. Board <br /> of Transportation (BOT) approval is required if the BOT ever took action to name the road. By virtue of the BOT action to <br /> approve the petition for addition of the subdivision streets to the State system on March 15, 1988,the BOT did take <br /> action to name the roads.Therefore BOT approval is needed for the renaming.Your BOCC should follow all <br /> requirements of NCGS 153A-239.1 and send me a resolution requesting BOT approval of the proposed new names. <br /> Scenario 2 Renaming for Honorary Purposes: <br /> This also requires BOT approval.The following information is needed. <br /> • Background information of honorary nominee <br /> • Description of segment(s) requested to be named <br /> • Resolutions of endorsement and request from all local govt. bodies associated with or affected by the request. <br /> • Verification of strong public support <br /> https://www.ncleg.gov/EnactedLegislation/Statutes/PDF/BySection/Chapter 153A/GS 153A-239.1.pdf <br /> C.
