Staff Recommendation
APPROVE the street name 'Foggy Bottom Street'.
The proposed street name is not a duplication. This name was chosen by online polling conducted by the South Waterfront Development Office. The name changes were also discussed at public meetings held by the South Waterfront Development Office. Information about the name changes and the online poll were also published in a South Waterfront flier that was circulated to area residents. The City of Knoxville's Public Property Naming Committee recommended approval of the name at its September 12, 2009 meeting.
