2.0 BACKGROUND
2.1 At a regular meeting of the General Purpose and Administration Committee
held on May 16, 1988 the recommendations made in Report WD-32-88 were
adopted by Committee and subsequently approved by Council on May 23.
2.2 The recommendations in the report dealt with several requests for street
name changes and included the change of the name of the road between
Lots 4 and 5, Concession 5 and 6, former Township of Clarke from
Langstaff Road to Shiloh Road. This recommendation was made in response
to a request made by Mrs. Wilma Martinell in 1987 to change the name
of Langstaff Road to Shiloh Road.
The effect of this name change was that the road between Lots 4 and 5,
in Concession 5 and 6, former Township of Clarke is named Shiloh Road and
in Concession 7 and 8 is named Langstaff Road.
2.3 At a meeting held on September 26, 1988 Council considered a letter received
from Mrs. Elizabeth Sullivan submitting a petition from residents from
Langstaff Road objecting to the changing of Langstaff Road to Shiloh Road
and requesting that the name be changed back to Langstaff Road between
Durham Road 9 and Concession Road 6.
The effect of this name change is that the road between Lots 4 and 5 would
be named Shiloh Road in Concession 5 and Langstaff Road in Concessions 6, 7
and 8.

3.0 REVIEW AND COMMENT
3.1 By-Law 86-112 which was passed by Council on July 28, 1987, established
the names of all streets in the Town of Newcastle. Prior to the passing
of the by-law, the plans detailing the names proposed for the streets
and roads in the Town were circulated, posted and published in an effort to
reach and inform as many people as possible. The process took several
years, a number of reviews by Council and the Public and the plans and
street names were posted at strategic locations in the Town. In every
case, the Public were requested to review the material and to comment
on the names given to each road and street.
3>2 In the case of the changing of the name from Langstaff Road to Shiloh
Road in May, 1988, the request was not published and the owners of the
properties adjacent to the road were not notified of the request that the
name be changed.
3.3 The Municipal Act establishes procedures to be used in changing the name
of a highway (highway means a common or public highway and includes the
streets) . Specifically, Section 210 (105) provides as follows:
To provide for surveying, settling and marking the boundary
lines of highways and giving names to them or changing their
names, and for affixing the names at the corners thereof, on
public or private property.
a) A by-law changing the name of a highway has no effect until
a copy of it, certified under the hand of the Clerk and
the seal of the Corporation, has been registered in the
proper registry office.
b) "before passing a by-law for changing the name of a highway,
i) notice of the proposed by-law shall be published at
least once a week for four successive weeks in a newspaper
having a general circulation in the municipality, and
ii) the Council shall hear any person who claims that he will
be adversely affected by the by-law who applies to be
heard.

3.4 In addition to the request to change the road name Shiloh Road back to
Langstaff Road, we have the following other requests for street name
changes:
1) Request from Mr. Ernest J. Bowen that Pollard Road located
between Lots 32 and 33, Concession 3 and 4, former Township of
Clarke be changed to Bowen Road (see Attachment No.4 and No.7)
2) Request from the City of Oshawa that the Town adopt Townline Road
(north and south) as the legal name for the boundary street between
the former Township of East Whitby and the former Township of
Darlington for that portion of the street which is under the
jurisdiction of the Town (see Attachment No.5 and 8)
3.5 In addition to the above a request has been received Mr. J. F. McMillan
to name the road in Lot 5, between Concession 8 and 9, former Township
of Clarke, McMillan Road (see Attachment No. 6 and 7) .
At the present time this road does not have a name.
3.6 Cost
The cost to publish requests for street name changes in the local newspapers
and the cost of Staff time to process the applications is about $1,500.
4.0 CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
4.1 Requests to change the name of streets should be dealt with in accordance
with Section 210 (1Q5) of the Municipal Act.
4.2 Processing requests for street name changes in accordance with
Section 210 (105) of the Municipal Act is expensive.
5.0 RECOMMENDATIONS
5.1 It is recommeded that:
A) The requests for street name changes outlined in this report be
dealt with as provided in Section 210 (105) of the Municipal Act,
at no cost to the applicants.

Dear Sir;
I am submitting this petition to help you understand the residents
feelings on the decision to change Langstaff Road to Shiloh Road.
i
Firstly, we have been using the address Langstaff Road for 6 months
when the sign Langstaff Road was put up. We had been notified 2 years in
June of the new address.
Secondly, because we have been using Langstaff Road for 6 months my
husband and myself have both drivers licence and passports registered.
Stationary for kennel and subscriptions to magazines and correspondence.
Langstaff Road at the cross roads on Durham Road 9 would be easy to
see when giving directions to police and fire trucks in case of emergency.
This road is completely separate from Shiloh Road.
So finally, I would prefer the name of our road be left Langstaff Road
as before.
Yours Sincerely
Eliz. L. Sullivan

This is in regard to the request by Liz Sullivan to have
the name of our road allowance being Concession 6 between Lots
4 and 5 changed back"to Langstaff. I prefer that the name
remain as "Shiloh Road". It seems like a frivolous reason to go
to the expense and time involved to change the name back because
it is inconvenient since she now uses Langstaff on her driver's
licence. It is not required on a driver's licence, just the lot
and Concession, and whether or not you use the road name is your
choice. The inconvenience would be repeated again next year if
it were changed back. I believe that we have an obligation to
preserve the history of our area and what better way is there.
At the present time the church is used for road directions. The
name Shiloh Road gives easy direction to and from County Road
No. 9.
If they sincerely wish the name changed that desperately, each
resident could be asked to submit their valid reasons suppgrting
the change back to Langstaff. The truly interested persons would "
reply.
To the best of my knowledge and according to documentation
obtained from the local registry office and old maps, there is
no mention of the Langstaff name south of County Road No. 9.
I had previously told Mrs. Sullivan I would not interfere
with her request but since changed my mind, as I strongly believe
�r
the road allowance should remain "Shiloh Road" .

I would also like to mention that one of the people that
signed the Sullivan petition just moved in a year ago, another
has had a "For Sale" sign 'up. The property owners across from
us would like to be able to sell their farm immediately. Therefore
�``
I doubt very much if renaming this road is high on their list of
u
priorities, but switching the name around every year could
certainly be aggravating.
Sorry for all the trouble I have caused but the majority of
people that I have received phone calls from are very pleased with
the name "Shiloh Road".
A sincere "Thank You" to everyone for your help and understanding.
It has been truly a learning experience.
Yours sincerely

Dear Sir:
Lot 33, according to map enclosed, was conveyed to Bradford Bowen on
January 27, 1835. Hiram Bowen son of Bradford Bowen had one son
Henry C. Bowen who later purchased the north quarter of Lot 33.
Henry Bowen was a noted orchardist, purchasing the first orchard
sprayer in Durham county.
The farm of Bradford Bowen was later split in half. Wellington Bowen
with the east half and Fred Bowen (his son) the west half. Fred Bowen
was a member of Parliament for three terms. Hector Bowen son of Henry Bowen
bought the farm of James Jerome in 1927 and farmed until 1959.
As there is only two lines in Professor Squair's book on Clarke Township
relating to the Pollards and no dates given, I beleive that relating to
history of this section, the name of the road (now known) as Pollard' s
should be changed to Bowen Road.

Dear Sir:
It has been suggested by Steve Harding to write to you asking if it is
possible to name our concession road the McMillan Road.
Our 300 acre farm is Lot 3 to Lot 4 on Concession IX of Clarke Township.
We have been here for 110 years since my grandfather first purchased this
land in 1877. Apparently up to this time you have not named this road
and we would like to have a road number for our property.
We are the only residents on this road between Langstaff_ Road and the
Town boundary.

street names were posted at strategic locations in the Town. In every
case, the Public were requested to review the material and to comment
on the names given to each road and street.
3.2 In the case of the changing of the name from Langstaff Road to Shiloh
Road in May, 1988, the request was not published and the owners of the
properties adjacent to the road were not notified of the request that the
name be changed.
3.3 The Municipal Act establishes procedures to be used in changing the name
of a highway (highway means a common or public highway and includes the
streets) . Specifically, Section 210 (105) provides as follows:

resident could be asked to submit their valid reasons suppgrting
the change back to Langstaff. The truly interested persons would .
reply.
To the best of my knowledge and according to documentation
obtained from the local registry office and old maps, there is
no mention of the Langstaff name south of County Road No. 9.
I had previously told Mrs. Sullivan I would not interfere
with her request but since changed my mind, as I strongly believe
the road allowance should remain "Shiloh Road".

I would also like to mention that one of the people that
signed the Sullivan petition just moved in a year ago, another
has had a "For Sale" sign 'up. The property owners across from
us would like to be able to sell their farm immediately. Therefore
I doubt very much if renaming this road is high on their list of .. "
priorities, but switching the name around every year could
certainly be aggravating.
Sorry for all the trouble I have caused but the majority of
people that I have received phone calls from are very pleased with
the name "Shiloh Road".
A sincere "Thank You" to everyone for your help and understanding.
It has been truly a learning experience.
Yours sincerely

Dear Sir:
Lot 33, according to map enclosed, was conveyed to Bradford Bowen on
January 27, 1835. Hiram Bowen son of Bradford Bowen had one son
Henry C. Bowen who later purchased the north quarter of Lot 33.
Henry Bowen was a noted orchardist, purchasing the first orchard
sprayer in Durham county.
The farm of Bradford Bowen was later split in half. Wellington Bowen
with the east half and Fred Bowen (his son) the west half. Fred Bowen
was a member of Parliament for three terms. Hector Bowen son of Henry Bowen
bought the farm of James Jerome in 1927 and farmed until 1959.
As there is only two lines in Professor Squair's book on Clarke Township
relating to the Pollards and no dates given, I beleive that relating to
history of this section, the name of the road (now known) as Pollard's
should be changed to Bowen Road.

Re: Street Names
The Council of the City of Oshawa considered the above matter at a meeting held on

That the Town of Newcastle be requested to adopt Townline Road (North and
South) as the legal name for the boundary street between the former Township
of East Whitby and the former Township of Darlington for that portion of the
street which is under their jurisdiction.
I have enclosed for your information a copy of Planning and Development Department

Consideration of this matter by the Town of Newcastle is appreciated.
Should you have any questions in this matter, please contact our Planning and
Development Department at your convenience.

Dear Sir:
It has been suggested by Steve Harding to write to you asking if it is
possible to name our concession road the McMillan Road.
Our 300 acre farm is Lot 3 to Lot 4 on Concession IX of Clarke Township.
We have been here for 110 years since my grandfather first purchased this
land in 1877. Apparently up to this time you have not named this road
and we would like to have a road number for our property.
We are the only residents on this road between Langstaff Road and the
Town boundary.
