The road runs in front of our mixed farm in DeWinton, Alberta in Foothills County. I have been thinking about writing this for some time. Just recently, I read about my Great Granddaddy in the August and September issue of the Canadian Cowboy Magazine. The Article was written about Ranching Pioneers. My family has been ranching and farming for over 100 years in Foothills County. My Great Granddaddy established his first farm in 1908 in DeWinton, AB. I am requesting a name change that goes along our farm, my Uncle's land (Hari) and my Auntie, April’s (Hari) land as well as ours. I know that this might impact the fire station as well as 911 dispatch and Google Earth, however, there are a lot of changes and these services are familiar with change. In fact, I spoke to a fireman buddy of mine and he said it should not be a problem. New buildings, structures and new streets are revised all the time. I am requesting a name change to Hari Drive West. Thank you for your thoughtful consideration.

Due to the delay of the grant approval the research started later than anticipated but is now well under way and will be completed by September 17th.
