Subject: revised street name
Hello Beth, As per our last email I have had a opportunity to poll the residents of second lane.
They have decided to take Spoonbill Lane as the replacement for Seagull. I trust that now that
we have all 4 lanes renamed as per the residents selection and that the county can proceed in
their decision process. Please let me know the results of the February meeting. Thanks for your
help. Regards, David
P.S. Am I correct in guessing that your first name is Beth?

Mr. Mead,
Thank you for replying in time to keep the item on the February agenda. I will make the change now, and you can poll
the residents in the meantime, since the item won't be heard until February 16th. Hopefully the majority of the
residents will be happy with Catbird Lane, but if for some reason they reject that name and want a different name, we
can request a change at the meeting.
Anyhow, I will forward the agenda item and Resolution to you as soon as it is completed, but the Resolution includes
standard language that the County Clerk is to send certified copies of the Resolution to various County depts. (Public
Works, Engineering, Growth Mgmt., etc.) and other agencies (sheriff, Fire Dept., Postmaster, Tax Collector, Property
Appraiser, etc.), so those agencies are aware of the changes once approved, and the Road Dept. will make and install
new street signs shortly thereafter.

Leto -Beth, If I missed Sea Gull lane on your street name list I'm sorry. I will offer the name Catbird Lane as a replacement
however I have not sought approval from the residents of 2nd lane for this replacement. At this point and time it seems
more important to provide you with a replacement name now instead of my going through the process of polling the
residents
. The most important thing in my mind is the exercise of eliminating the confusion that currently exists with the duplication
of street names. I hope this is satisfactory to you and Monroe County.
While we are corresponding I would appreciate an answer from you or Dent Pierce to the few questions I asked in my
email of Jan. 17 regarding responsibilities of changing county documents ect. if the name changes were to be made.
Please check the email for the specific questions. Thanks again for your help and let me know if I can be of any further
assistance. Regards, David

Subject: street names
HI Dent and Leto, I hope M.L.K. day finds you both enjoying your holiday while I am hard at work
sending you this email. If you really knew how computer challenged I am you would know how hard I am
really working. After speaking with the majority of the residents who live on the four lanes in
question, and that voiced their desire to have the lane numbers changed to names , I am going to give you
,as per your request, the lane names as I received them. Please be advised that I did not poll the residents
who did not wish to see the lane numbers changed to names for obvious reasons. Also, as a reminder to
you I did not poll every resident as I stated in my email dated Dec. 6,2010 for the following requested
names (same reason as Dec.6th email). For 1st lane the name is Cardinal Lane, 2nd lane is Sea Gull Lane,
3rd lane is Egret Lane and 4th lane is Blue Heron Lane.1 have checked these names against the list of
street names I received from Leto -Beth and do not see any conflicts or duplications. Please feel free to
check my checking. The residents that wish to see the changes in place have a question that I hope you can
answer. As we expect, assuming the changes take place we the residents will be responsible for advising
our correspondents i.e. friends, banks, all businesses, ect of our address change. But who handles any
county or possibly state changes such as tax bills, property deeds, land or vehicle titles, Key Largo post
office or things of that nature ? We are obviously thinking Monroe County since it is the goverment that is
making the change .Correct ? I believe my work here is now finished. Unless I can be of further service I
will wait for your approval of the proposed name changes,and your answer to our question. Also we
would appreciate it if you could advise me of your (Monroe Countys' )next step and a walk thru of the
entire process with a estimated time frame for completion.
Thanks again for both of your help. Respectfully, David Mead
