Naming of Road
Council names and renames roads, when required, from time to time. This is done for roads which do not have an official name, or which may have a generic name, or a name which is no longer appropriate. The procedure involves advertising in the local press and advising landholders and residents along the road. Comments and/or objections are considered at the next Council meeting.
If adopted, the name will be advertised and gazetted (in the NSW Government Gazette). If the name is not adopted then a new proposed name will be advertised and the procedure will repeat.
Others to be consulted and advised in the process are:
- NSW Land and Property Information (including the Geographical Names Board)
- Australia Post.
- NSW Ambulance
Any roads being named will also be advertised here.
