A public hearing and final reading of the proposed ordinance is scheduled for Wednesday, and councilors are expected to vote on the changes.

Among the changes being considered is shifting the responsibility for assigning road names and numbers from the City Council to the E911 addressing officer, offering guidelines on naming or renaming streets, and determining how property owners will be notified of changes. It also details how appeals to decisions would be handled, including how notice should be filed and who serves on the Addressing Ordinance Appeals Board.
