Origin

(March 17, 2014) Report from the Director, Engineering Services

Summary

The Seaton Village Residents Association has requested the naming of 19 public lanes in the blocks bounded by Dupont Street, Bathurst Street, Bloor Street West and Christie Street. A staff report adopted by Toronto and East York Community Council on November 9, 2013 as Item TE28.1 successfully named 2 lanes. A staff report adopted by Toronto and East York Community Council on February 25, 2014 as Item TE30.6 successfully named an additional 10 lanes.

 

This report recommends that 6 of the 7 names be rejected because they do not comply with various sections of the City of Toronto Honourific and Street Naming Policy.

 

Community Councils have delegated authority to decide street naming matters which comply with the City of Toronto Honourific and Street Naming Policy. These names do not comply with that policy.
