The Denton City Council is set to hold a public hearing on a proposal to rename a stretch of S. Mayhill Road to Edwards Road. The change, if approved, will concern the road spanning from its western terminus of the existing Edwards Road to the new S. Mayhill Road, approximately 1,000 linear feet north of Leafy Road.
Residents who have an opinion on the matter are encouraged to quickly step forward and voice their thoughts during the hearing. According to the city's announcement, the ordinance would amend the city's official map, altering the name of this section of the thoroughfare that slices through Denton, Texas. Erin Stanley, a staff contact for the city, is listed for those seeking more information on the proposal or the hearing process.
The city has published details of the hearing, including contact information for Erin Stanley at (940) 349-8351, and has posted the information on their official website. Interested parties can find further details or reach out with inquiries by visiting the City of Denton, Texas.
Specific impacts of the name change, beyond the alteration of addresses for residents and businesses along the impacted route, have not been detailed by city officials in the announcement. Those interested in the implications of the renaming, or who want to potentially speak at the hearing, may need to directly contact the city for additional information. The public hearing promises to give a platform to voices both for and against the proposition, as the council weighs the merits and drawbacks of the proposed ordinance.
