The City has a tradition of naming public facilities for residents who have made outstanding contributions to the community. The City desires to establish a predictable process for establishing or changing the name of City properties.

The purpose of this Ordinance is to add a new chapter, 2.138 EMC, that will supersede and replace past City Council resolutions. Recommendation (exact action requested of Council): Adopt an Ordinance establishing Procedures for Naming and Renaming of City properties, adding a new chapter 2.138 to the Everett Municipal Code.
