NOTICE of ROAD NAME CHANGE
Subject: Renaming Hadaway Road Attucks Lane, Barnstable,,(Rd. # 2279)
Date: August 16, 2004
Members of the Barnstable Town Council, Mr. Harold E. Tobey and Mr. Henry C.
Farnham, have petitioned the Town Manager, John Klimm, for the renaming of Hadaway
Road, Barnstable. At the request of the DPW and Engineering Division, a public hearing
was held on June 9, 2004 at the council chambers of Barnstable Town Hall.
Discussions included the changing of the original road name of Attucks Lane Extension
and the renaming of this section of road to Hadaway Road. Mr. Tobey produced historic
documentation of Crispus Attucks, the first casualty of the American Revolution at what
became known as the Boston Massacre. In recognition of such a well known citizen, Mr.
Tobey requested the road name be changed back to the original road name. Since there
appeared to be no objection to this change, the decision was taken under advisement.
Without any further objection,the Town Manager, John Klimm, ordered the road name
be changed from Hadaway Road to Attucks Lane.
In preparation of the renaming of Hadaway Road to Attucks Lane, because Attucks Lane
already existed in another location, new building numbers must be reassigned for
properties on the existing section of Attucks Lane for E-911 and mailing purposes.
Immediately after the notices are mailed to the abutters with their newly assigned
numbers, the order to change the name of Hadaway Road will be recorded at the Registry
of Deeds.
The recorded order for the road renaming will then be sent to the abutters of Hadaway
Road along with the verification notice of their building number.
The new road name change order must be recorded at the Registry of Deeds against the
original plan road layout on file. Notices must be sent to all local utility companies
including E-911. The Police and Fire Departments will be notified of the date the new
road signs will be installed. The order will then be processed to the mapping divisions of
the Town of Barnstable.
