Whenever a majority of the owners on any private street desire the name of the street to be changed on the municipal records and on the street signs, they shall file a petition with the Department of Transportation requesting the change. The Department of Transportation shall refer to the City Council the petition and a written report with a recommendation as to the advisability of the name change. If the proposed change is satisfactory to the Department of Transportation and is approved by ordinance of the Mayor and City Council, the Department shall then change the street signs on the streets. When the street name signs have been changed, the Department of Transportation shall enter the new name on its official maps, plats, and records, and thenceforth all records of the City shall carry the street under the new name.
