Residential Street Name Sign Replacement Project

The replacement of residential street name signs started this week. The current street name signs were installed more than twenty years ago; many have become faded and reached the end of their useful life. In June 2022, the City Council authorized the replacement project and also approved an updated design to reflect the City’s current streetscape theme and palette. Public Works staff will continue to replace the signs over the next few months.
