REPORT TO THE PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE MEETING OF FEBRUARY 18, 1980.
REPORT NO. : P-25-80
SUBJECT: Bowmanville Creek — Name Change
File: C-K-1-1
BACKGROUND:
At the Committee meeting of October 5, 1979, the proposed
name change from Bowmanville Creek to Barber Creek was last discussed.
At that time, the Committee forwarded a copy of staff report P-117-79 to
the Local Architectural Conservation Advisory Committee for their infor-
mation. (copy attached)
In response to that report, and earlier discussions relative to
the naming of geographic features, the Local Architectural Conservation
Advisory Committee has advised that it is their recommendation that the
name of Bowmanville Creek remain unchanged.
COMMENTS:
In view of the fact that L.A.C.A.C. does not endorse the pro-
posed name change and the fact that naming of geographic features is
the responsibility of the Ontario Geographic Names Board; which Board
has previously indicated that Bowmanville Creek is the currently approved
c
I .
name resulting from common local usage, and is the form the Board
would likely retain; it does not appear that any further action is
required in respect of this matter. However, if the Committee or
Council see merit in requesting a name change, then it would be
necessary to forward an appropriate resolution to the Ontario Geographic
Names Board.
RECOMMENDATION:
That the Planning and Development Committee recommend to
Council that this report be received for information.
Respectfully submitted,

REPORT TO THE PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT COMMLTTEE MEETING OF October 1, 1979 .
REPORT NO. : P-177-79
SUBJECT: Bowmanville Creek - Name Change
BACKGROUND:
In February of this year, the Town received a briel from the
Local Architectural Conservation Advisory Committee rela ive to a
suggested name change from Bowmanville Creek to the hist ric name
of Barber's Creek. The author of the brief, Mr. Wm. Bag 11 had
undertaken extensive research relative to the historic n�me of
this
creek which through common usage had become known as the Bowmanville
Creek. As a result of this brief, the Town Manager and S I olicitor
were requested to advise Council on how to proceed with t I he subject
i
request. In accordance with -drat direction, the Town Cleric contacted
the Ontario Geographic Names Board, which 'is the statutory authority
responsible for the control of names and naming of geographic features.
In response to the Town's enquiry, the Ontario Geoglraphic Names
Board forwarded a copy of their Principles of Geographic Naming and
an application form concerning the request. This information was pre--
I
stinted to the Planning Committee on March 19, 1979 at which time, it was
s
I I
recommended , that the Clerk liaise with L.A.C.A.C. and report back
to the Committed. On March 27, 1979, Mr. Mcllroy wrote to I.,.A.C.A.C.
requesting them: conunents and opinion; to date, we have not received
their reply. In that regard, staff contacted the chairperson of L.A.C.A.C.
and requested written confirmation of their position. upon receipt of
said comments, we shall prepare a further report for the Committee's
consideration.
RECOMMENDATION:
That the Planning and Development Committee recommend to Council
that this report: be received for information.
Respectfully submitted,
