December 7, 2020 To: Fayetteville, AR, City Council, for consideration December 15, 2020 Re: Proposal to change name of W. Pike Street to W. Gecko Lane p g At a time when the world is being ravaged by a deadly pandemic and our country is challenged by divisive culture wars, it makes no sense to continue honoring a historic figure known to espouse white supremacy. Following the example set by Fort Smith, where both Albert Pike Elementary School and Albert Pike Boulevard are being renamed, I propose that the City of Fayetteville rename W. Pike Street. W. Pike Street is one block long, appears to be landlocked, and only two houses address on it. An additional 5 properties border Pike Street. Every neighbor I was able to contact was enthusiastic about the name change: • "Gecko" conveys the whimsical nature of our Wilson Park neighborhood (and will inspire clever yard art as a bonus!) • "Lane" seems more fitting than "Street" for a one-block-long stretch of pavement. Attached is the list of names, addresses and signatures I was able to collect. Many thanks for considering this request. --Respectfully submitted by Ann Mesrobian, owner/occupant of 19 W. Pike Street To: Fayetteville City Council, Fayetteville, Arkansas, December 15, 2020 Re: Proposal to change name of W.
