RE:

Consideration for Naming of a Section of the Lindley Elementary School Property

County Director of Parks and Recreation, Roger Bardsley, on behalf of the Sunset Hills Neighborhood Association, and the surrounding community, has requested that a portion of the Lindley Elementary School property be named. 

The portion, in particular, is located in the northeast section of the Lindley property and has been left in a “natural” state.  This area is used by nearby residents for its walking trails and wildlife viewing.  In recent years, the area became overgrown and in 2005 a restoration effort began.  Now that it is near full restoration, the community would like to officially name this portion of the property.

Pursuant to our procedure on the naming of schools (FDCA-P), a nomination form and accompanying support documents were provided for review and consideration.

The name proposed is as follows:

Lindley Natural Area

RECOMMENDATION:  The administration recommends that the board study and support the proposed name Lindley Natural Area and following a period of public comment or input consider approval of the nomination or direct the administration to request the nominator to provide any further information as may be required by the board in order to more fully consider the request and to make a decision.
