Changing Street Names In Chattanooga
The city has already been sued over 911 incidents where personnel could not find addresses, so the plan is to “clean things up.” Among the concerns:
- Duplicate addresses. Now there’s “a 600 Georgia Avenue downtown and one on Signal Mountain.”
- “Sound-alike streets, including Ingle, Engel and Engle.”
One of the more interesting suggestions which could leave similarly named intact but remove doubt: “Councilwoman Sally Robinson recommended for streets with similar names to make sure there are no duplicate street numbers. For example, she said Glenwood Circle could have the 100s, Glenwood Drive the 200s and Glenwood Avenue the 300s.”
