City Hall, 215 Church Avenue P.O. Box 1130 Oshkosh, WI 54903-1130 920.236.5000 http://www.ci.oshkosh.wi.us TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the Common Council FROM: Mark Lyons, Planning Services Manager DATE: November 3, 2022 RE: Approve Street Name Change from Sage Crossing to Sage Crossing Way BACKGROUND The United States Postal Service (USPS) is requesting the street name for Sage Crossing be changed to Sage Crossing Way. The subject street is a 700-foot long local-classed road located between Mockingbird Way and Wyatt Way, platted by the Fourth Addition to Casey’s Meadow South Subdivision. The street fronts 17 single-family residential lots, seven of which have been developed. USPS contacted the Planning Services Division with concerns regarding use of the word “Crossing”. “Crossing” is used by USPS as a suffix (X-ing.) similar to Drive or Avenue. This causes problems with USPS’s address and mailing system which assumes “Crossing” means “X-ing” or “Sage X-ing”, which does not exist. This is causing issues with mail delivery to the homeowners. ANALYSIS USPS recommends adding a suffix to the end of “Sage Crossing” such as Drive or Way to eliminate the conflict. Staff suggests adding “Way” to the end of Sage Crossing which is used for several other streets in the area. During review of the Fourth Addition to Casey’s Meadow South, City and County staff approved the proposed street names for the plat and did not anticipate issues with the use of “Crossing”. Moving forward, USPS will be included in the plat review process to prevent cases like this. Property owners adjacent to Sage Crossing were notified of the proposed street name change and will be responsible for updating their address with any and all contacts making use of the current street name. RECOMMENDATION The Plan Commission recommended approval of the street name change on November 1, 2022. Please see the attached staff report and meeting minutes for more information.

The street fronts 17 single-family residential lots, seven of which have been developed. The United States Postal Service (USPS) contacted the Planning Services Division with concern using the word “Crossing”. “Crossing” is used by USPS as a suffix (X-ing.), similar to Drive (Dr.) or Avenue (Ave.).

The United States Postal Service is requesting the street name for Sage Crossing be changed to Sage Crossing Way.

USPS recommends adding a suffix to the end of “Sage Crossing” such as Drive or Way to eliminate the conflict. Staff suggests adding “Way” to the end of Sage Crossing which is used for several other streets in the area.

Now, USPS is part of the plat review process so that cases like this will be prevented in the future.

Staff recommends approval with the findings and conditions listed in the staff report. Mr. Perry opened up technical questions to staff. Ms. Scheuermann asked why this item comes to Plan Commission. Mr. Lyons said it is one of the Plan Commission’s responsibilities and duties along with council, to change a name of a street once it has been dedicated a name. ITEM II –Sage Crossing Renaming Ms. Davey asked why the map says Sage Crossing Drive but the staff report says Sage Crossing Way. Mr. Nau said that the map was a technical error. Mr. Loewenstein asked why “crossing” was left when that seems to be the issue. Mr. Lyons said the developer wanted to keep the name “Sage Crossing” but understanding the issue with the USPS system, it was easier to add a suffix so the community could still refer to themselves as Sage Crossing. Mr. Perry asked for any public comments and asked if the applicant wanted to make any statements. There were no public comments on this item. Mr. Perry closed public comments and asked if the applicant wanted to make any closing statements. There were no closing statements from the applicant.
