1.0 BACKGROUND
1.1 Council, at their Meeting of May 5, 2008, passed a resolution authorizing staff to
process, with newspaper advertising, the renaming of Swarbrick Street to George
Burley Street, and to waive the fee for the Street Name Change request. Attachment 1
to this report illustrates the location of the street.
1.2 George Burley was born and raised in Newtonville. He was a farmer that lived on the
very street being renamed. Mr. Burley was also a war veteran that served in the
regiment known as the 136th Battalion during World War One in Europe, from 1916 to
1918. His contribution is deserving of recognition.
1.3 The street name "Swarbrick" is associated with a war veteran who is thought to have
spent most of his life in Kendal, although he is buried in Newtonville. However, his
name will not be added to the Kendal list of names as it is not anticipated that a new
street will ever be built in Kendal nor an existing street renamed.
1.4 The name Swarbrick will receive first consideration for any new streets that are created
in Newtonville. New streets are much more likely to be created in Newtonville, given its
municipal water supply, than in Kendal. Any "Swarbrick" signage already in existence
will be stored by the Municipality in consideration of the above, however, depending on
where the name is used in the future, the suffix may be different.
1.5 In accordance with Council's resolution the proposed street name change was
advertised. The completion date for the advertisements within the local newspaper was
May 21, 2008. No objections or comments have been received as of the writing of this
report in response to the published notice.
1.6 Provided that there are no objections raised at the Public Meeting, it is recommended
that the street name change be approved. The renaming will not affect any addresses
in Registered Plan of Subdivision 40M-2357 or anywhere else, at this time.
1.7 The implementation will proceed with the following transition process:
. The effective date is August 1, 2008; and
· The Municipality will advise 43 agencies and departments of the proposed street
name and address change.
2.0 CONCLUSION
2.1 It is respectfully recommended that the attached Amending By-law be APPROVED.
