Designation of Community and Road Names, Civic Addressing

2. New community area names should be descriptive or should reflect the heritage or history of the area or of the Town.

3. Where an undeveloped area of the Town is proposed for development and a neighbourhood name has not already been designated, the developer shall submit a recommended name to the Council for approval. Council may reject, amend or substitute a name as it deems appropriate.

4. The following new community areas are named:

a) Michener - that area west of 58th Street and south of 50th Avenue

b) Wolfe Creek Industrial Park - that area east of Highway 2A and north of CP Rail - Lacombe Subdivision branch

Designation of Streets and Avenues

5. All streets and avenues shall be formally designated by the Town and are shown on Map 1. The following new names or designations will be given:

a) Len Thompson Drive - naming the future street within the Wolfe Creek Industrial Park

b) 63rd Street - designating that street forming the entrance to Michener Recreation Area and the Zig Zag convenience store.

6. The designation of avenues and streets by number is preferred generally and shall be required for roadways which are part of an integrated grid of roadways or for which number designation would be critical to finding the particular roadway.

7. The roadway number designation shall conform with the overall grid shown on Map 2.

8. Number designation shall not be required on roadways:

i) which are laid out on a bias

ii) the route of which changes ordinate directions or moves across the general number grid on Map 2

13. The names or new collector and arterial roads should be descriptive or should reflect the heritage or history of the area or of the Town.

14. Roadways within the downtown area shall bear both a number and the historic name and addressing may be referenced to either.

15. To establish greater consistency and logic in the Civic Addressing System and for the purposes of implementing community mailboxes the following street and avenue designations shall be changed:

16. The Town will assign a civic address to each parcel of land, or where necessary, for utility or postal delivery reasons, to suites, bays or units within a parcel of land and these are shown on Map 1

17. Within areas where the roadways are part of the integrated grid of roadways, civic addresses shall be referenced to the overall grid.

18. On local roadways that are named, civic addresses may either reference the overall grid or be numbered sequentially from #1.

19. Addresses referencing the overall number grid shall be of 4 digit format with the first two (2) digits representing the grid road immediately to the east or south and the last two (2) digits being a sequence increasing from south to north and east to west. Number sequences shall leave at least on vacant whole number between each lot in developed residential or commercial areas and sufficient vacant numbers in less densely developed areas to allow future subdivision and redevelopment.

21. The owner of each property shall cause to be displayed the assigned civic address at or near the front of the property such that it may be clearly observed and read from the roadway. Each person who contravenes this provision is guilty of an offence and shall be liable on summary conviction to a fine of not less than Twenty-five Dollars ($25.00) or not more than Five Hundred Dollars ($500.00).
