Follow up from a previous post on a Champaign honorary street designation. From the News-Gazette today:
Street honors for Perry win preliminary OK:Full article here.
Another vote needed for final approval
The city council on Tuesday gave initial approval to designating an honorary street for Bishop Robert Perry of the Grove Street Church of God in Christ.
The change would place “Bishop Robert L. Perry Jr.” street signs at the end of each block of Grove Street between Fifth and Sixth streets, in addition to four commemorative signs. Perry has been pastor of Grove Street Church for a few decades.
Tuesday’s unanimous council vote is one the group doesn’t cast often — honorary street designations are limited to four per year and last for 10 years. This is the first being considered in 2018.
