All in <br /> favor. Motion carried unanimously. <br /> STREET NAME DISCUSSION Councilman Leary reported that he had this <br /> Councilman Leary idea proposed to him by one of the people <br /> in his ward and he had discussed it with <br /> Carolyn Markham of the Historical Commission. <br /> Essentially the suggestion was that there <br /> may be individuals who have contributed to the <br /> City of Louisville in various ways and have <br /> never received recognition, possibly because <br /> they were never elected as public officials <br /> and did their work in the spirit of volun- <br /> teerism. Carolyn Markham brought the idea <br /> to the Historical Commission and they in- <br /> cicated an interest in the project. In <br /> addition, after listening to Betty Buffo's <br /> presentation at the last meeting, it occured <br /> to him there maybe a possibility that certain <br /> events in the history of Louisville could <br /> be commemorated. It was his su gestiom to Council, <br /> if they agree, that Council would ask the <br /> Historical Commission to do some research <br /> and make recommendation to whomever is re- <br /> sponsible for naming the streets, and Council <br /> would direct him to accept the recommenda- <br /> tion of the Historical Commission. <br /> Mayor Meier Commented that he was in attendance at the <br /> last Historical Commission meeting and they <br /> had a discussion on the topic. It was also <br /> his opinion this was a very commendable effort. <br /> It was his suggestion that perhaps streets <br /> named after Mayors be dispersed with events. <br /> Mayor Meier remarked that he would appreciate <br /> living past mayors be considered as a priority <br /> for naming of the streets. <br /> HISTORICAL COMMISSION TO Councilman Leary moved, Mayor Meier seconded <br /> MAKE RECOMMENDATION ON STREET that Council request the Historical Commission <br /> NAMES to submit to City Council a list of names or <br /> events that in their judgement have historical <br /> significance to the City - be they volunteers , <br />
