"it's certainly a key piece of ininrastructure, it's certainly a big part of what north liberty has for a business district." nats air efex is one business with a highway 965 address inside they're building and painting vehicles and more. "i talk to people, customers come from des moines and they can cce right offffhere, off the interrate and hit 965 no problem." nats? so what about changing the highway's name? "as long as people can still find the businesses, i'm okay with it." north liberty city leaders say they still need to identify the process they want to use in order to move forward. "there's always beeean interestt in sorrof giving north liberty a little bit more of its own identity and particularly what was an old rural highway through town to

give it a little bit more identity." down the road from north liberty, coralville has changed road's names a few times in the past couple of decades -- highway 965 became coral ridge avenue and 1st avenue became hayden fry way. "it's a very usualalthing to change a name because changing names creates address issues and those kinds of publicity, marketing type of things, especially if there are commercial units there." coralville's city administrator says the city also contacted google. "so to have it be able to show up officially in google is probably`the most imprtant thing, so people can locate where you are talking about." north liberty plans to get started with the name- changing process in coming months. " 13:43:23 i think that those kind of identity things are importanto a growing down like north liberty " tv-9's jill kasparie with that report. north liberty says it's not sure of the cost yet, but the majority of it would come from new signage.
