Mayor Trinks called the Public Hearing to order at 7:20 p.m. to discuss a resolution to change the name of a portion of West Wolcott Avenue to Putnam Highway.

Mayor Trinks read the resolution.

Mr. Bob Alexander, owner of 135 East Wolcott Avenue, stated that he is a resident of Hartford, but he will be moving to West Wolcott Avenue. While remodeling his home on West Wolcott Avenue he had trouble with contractors and a tow truck locating his property. He was hoping that the road would be called Cottage Grove Road or Mount St. Benedict Boulevard, which it has been known in the past.

Mr. Frank and Ms. Jennie Czelazewicz, 652 West Wolcott Avenue, addressed the Town Council. Ms. Czelazewicz has lived on West Wolcott Avenue for 54 years. They don’t want the street name changed, and suggested additional signs with arrows be installed. They would prefer it to remain West Wolcott Avenue.

Ms. Kirsten Hansel, 600 West Wolcott, addressed the Town Council. She believes that changing the street name would impact mail delivery, credit checks and verifications. She understands that the town will provide a letter to various vendors, however, it has been her experience that situations like this often get mixed up. She suggested that any name change for the road should begin with the numeration after the 600’s.

Mayor Trinks adjourned the meeting at 7:31 p.m.

Respectfully submitted,

Kristin Countryman

Clerk of the Windsor Town Council
