Council to consider honorary naming for Vera Simpson Way after community garden request
Summary
Council members introduced a resolution (20 26 37 as read) to honor Miss Vera Simpson for her neighborhood gardening and youth education work; staff will explore whether to apply an honorary street name and the appropriate signage and implementation steps.
The council introduced a resolution (read as resolution 20 26 37) proposing an honorary naming to recognize Miss Vera Simpson for her community work, particularly her involvement with a local community garden and efforts to teach neighborhood children to grow and prepare food.
The mayor said the idea came at the request of community garden members who wanted to honor Simpson's work in the neighborhood.

No formal vote on the resolution was recorded during the study session; the matter was placed on the regular council agenda for consideration and any subsequent formal action.
