Parker ' The City Council on Jan. 6 approved Resolution 2026-879 to rename a subdivision for which a preliminary plat was approved Oct. 21, 2025.
Ken Nicholson, a long-time resident, asked the council to honor his family name by including "Macquarie" (transcript contains variant spellings) in the subdivision name. Council members discussed multiple options the family proposed, including "McCreary Meadows," "McCreary Acres" and "The Homestead at McCreary Farms." Several council members said they preferred a form that avoided the words "farms" or "estates" to reduce confusion with neighboring subdivision names.
Mayor pro tem Pilgrim moved to name the addition "McCreary Meadows." The motion was seconded and approved by voice vote, motion carried 4-0. The meeting record contains several different spellings of the chosen name; staff should confirm the family'preferred spelling for official documentation and plat records.
