Citrus Heights council weighs process to rename Sayonara Drive
Summary
Council discussed staff’s proposed outreach and survey process to explore renaming Sayonara Drive as part of a neighborhood rebuild, directing staff to proceed with a survey and return with naming options and community feedback.
Councilmembers discussed a staff plan to solicit resident and property‑owner feedback about renaming Sayonara Drive as a component of neighborhood revitalization tied to Habitat for Humanity homes and upcoming move‑ins.
Staff outlined a survey-based outreach program that would solicit sentiment from property owners and tenants, accept name nominations, hold community meetings and present a short list of options for council decision at a later meeting. Council members asked that the survey include two core questions (whether residents would consider a name change and, if yes, suggested names) and that staff ensure broad outreach to tenants and new homeowners. The council affirmed the approach and directed staff to proceed with the planned community engagement and to return with results and name options.
The council emphasized that survey responses would inform but not bind the council’s eventual decision; final renaming decisions would be made by the council after staff returns with the aggregated community input.
