2 .2 Wilmot Creek Road
In order to avoid a duplication, the applicant intends to rename
Wilmot Creek Road to Lakebreeze Road. Wilmot Creek Road runs
parallel to Highway 401 from Bennett Road to the entrance to the
Wilmot Creek retirement community after which the roadway is a
private road. The municipal portion of Wilmot Creek Road is
maintained on a year round basis and Staff note that three (3)
properties would be affected by the name change, although two (2)
of the properties are owned by the applicant.
2 . 3 In reviewing any names for consideration, the Town is required to
co-ordinate and approve all street names with the Region of Durham
to insure there will be no duplication of street names with
neighbouring municipalities. Upon contacting the Regional Planning
Department, Staff were advised that the proposed street name
changes would be acceptable.
3 . CONCLUSION
Staff will proceed with the appropriate newspaper advertisements
for four (4) consecutive weeks in accordance with the procedures
set out in the Municipal Act.
