Select Board approves naming new private road "Lucy Lane" and 911 addressing for development
Summary
The board approved creation and naming of a private roadway serving five to six new homes, authorized assignment of 911 addresses for the lots, and instructed staff to provide necessary map and recorded survey details to emergency services.
The Select Board approved the creation and naming of a new private roadway to serve a proposed subdivision of five (possibly six) homes and authorized the assignment of 911 addresses for the new lots.
During discussion the board reviewed a recorded survey showing a 30‑foot right‑of‑way that traverses Lot 51 and butts Lot 2; members confirmed the road is recorded and asked staff to include the map and slide number in the resolution. A resident said the road would provide three driveways off Doe Run for two lots and a new road off Route 30 for other lots. Board members approved the motion to name the road and assign 911 numbers by voice vote.
Chair and a resident discussed whether to use "Lucy Lake" or "Lucy Lane" in drafting; the approved resolution recorded the name as Lucy Lane and staff will contact 911 to secure addressing. A trustee noted the name has local significance: "This is Wesley in Kelly's Land and Wesley used to call Isabelle Lucy."
