DATE: June 21, 2007
SUBJECT: City Council Meeting - June 28, 2007
ITEM: 10C9. Consider an ordinance changing the name of Kiphen Road to Old
Settlers Boulevard. (First Reading)
Department: Planning and Community Development
Staff Person: Jim Stendebach, Planning and Community Development Director
Justification
In August 2000, the City annexed Kiphen Road, from FM 1460 to CR 122, to prepare for future
annexations and improvements to Kiphen Road. Roadway improvements began in August
2004, and construction on the first phase will be complete later this summer, with phase two
expected to be complete in the spring of 2008. 'The Planning Department had intended to
rename this improved section of Kiphen Road upon completion of construction. However, with
the addition of a new zip code by the USPS, those businesses and residents would have to
endure two address changes within the span of a year. We believe it is important we make the
name change to the roadway effective in time that it will prevent property and business
owners from having to go through two address changes, one for the zip code and one for the
street name. This street name change furthers the City's efforts to maintain consistent street
naming throughout Round Rock.

Backaround Information:
According to the requirements of City Council Resolution No. R-02-11-26-10C1, the following
has been completed: On July 28, 2006, written notices were sent to the property owners of
the land adjacent to Kiphen Road ROW. By mid-September the city had received return
approval from 53% of property owners and have not received any since. While the 53%
approval falls short of the 66% normally required, we believe the renaming is necessary and
.should occur with the zip code change. Several property owners have called in the last several
months to see when the change would take place. Since the USPS has redrawn zip code
boundaries, we've received more calls with concerns about changing the name soon enough to
limit the negative impact on the affected businesses and property owners.
