AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY January 21, 2014
City Council
STAFF
Courtney Levingston, City Planner
SUBJECT
Resolution 2014-006 Renaming Rolland Moore Drive to Botanical Lane
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The purpose of this item is to rename the old Rolland Moore Drive to Botanical Lane. In 2012, Rolland Moore
Drive was realigned to the south, resulting in the existing Rolland Moore Drive stub needing to be renamed.
The old Rolland Moore Drive was reclassified as a local street on the Master Street Plan.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends adoption of this Resolution.
BACKGROUND / DISCUSSION
The amended CSURF Overall Development Plan was approved in 2012 showing Rolland Moore Drive
realigned to the south in its current location. This realignment resulted in the old Rolland Moore Drive stub
needing to be renamed as it is now a local street as designated on the Master Street Plan.
The name "Botanical Lane" was selected as it complements the surrounding local street names of Native
Plant Way and Perennial Lane as well as its proximity directly southwest of the Gardens on Spring Creek (see
Exhibit A to Resolution 2014-006).
If approved by City Council, renaming the old Rolland Moore Drive local street to Botanical Lane will simplify
way-finding for pedestrians, bicyclists, motorists, delivery personnel and emergency responders.

OF THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF FORT COLLINS
RENAMING ROLLAND MOORE DRIVE TO BOTANICAL LANE
WHEREAS, the amended CSURF Overall Development Plan was approved in 2012,
which resulted in Rolland Moore Drive being realigned to the south; and
WHEREAS, said realignment created a “stub street” in the previous location of Rolland
Moore Drive which needs to be renamed because it is now a local street as designated as the
Master Street Plan; and
WHEREAS, the name “Botanical Lane” was selected as an appropriate name for the old
Rolland Moore Drive stub street because it complements the surrounding local street names and
is in close proximity to the Gardens on Spring Creek; and
WHEREAS, the City Council has determined that it is in the best interests of the City that
the name Rolland Moore Drive be changed to Botanical Lane.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF

Rolland Moore Drive, as shown on Exhibit “A”, attached hereto and incorporated herein by this
reference, is hereby changed to Botanical Lane.
