THAT Report PD-045-00 be received; 2. THAT By-law 86-112, being a by-law to establish a Street Name Map and Street Name Inventory in the Municipality of Clarington, be amended to provide for the following street name changes: a portion of "Waverly Road" to "Watson Crescent"; "Watson Drive" to "Watson Crescent"; and a portion of "Waverly Road" to "Cedar Crest Beach Road". 3. THAT Council authorize the Mayor and Clerk to execute the attached by-law to amend By-law 86-112 being a by-law to establish the Street Name Map and Street Name Inventory in the Municipality of Clarington. 4. THAT all interested parties listed in this report and any delegations be advised of Council's decision. 1. BACKGROUND 1.1 In a previous agreement between the Municipality and Blue Circle Canada Inc., it was agreed that a portion of Waverly Road will be closed and conveyed to Blue Circle. Waverly Road will remain in municipal ownership to the north and south of the transferred portion. Since the southern portion of Waverly Road will be separated from the northerly portion, it is necessary to rename this southerly section of the road (Attachment No.1). 638 - . REPORT PD-045-00 PAGE 2 ~ 1.2 A report requesting authorization to place public notices in the local newspapers for the proposed street name change for this section of road was presented to the March 20, 2000 General Purpose and Administration Committee. At its meeting of March 27, 2000, Council adopted the following Resolution: "THAT staff be authorized to advertise the necessary notice advising of a proposed street name change for Watson Drive and the portions of Waverly Road identified in Report PD-026-00". 1.3 Three houses will be affected by the proposed changes. Two of the houses will need to change their addresses from "Watson Drive" to "Watson Crescent", and one house will need to change their addresses from "Waverly Road" to "Watson Crescent" if the proposed street name change By-law is passed. 2. PUBLIC MEETING AND SUBMISSION 2.1 Pursuant to the provisions of the Municipal Act, the proposed name change was advertised for four (4) consecutive weeks in either the Canadian Statesman and/or Clarington This Week, being the week of March 27, 2000 through to the week of April 17,2000. In addition, those land owners having properties fronting onto or abutting the effected streets have been sent individual notices. 2.2 At the time of writing this report, the Planning Department has not received any enquiries either written or verbal in respect of the notice. 3. AGENCY COMMENTS 3.1 The Region of Durham comments on street name changes to ensure that duplication of street names within the Region do not occur. The Durham Region Planning Department was circulated the proposed name changes, and the Region advised verbally that they have no concerns with the street name changes as proposed. 4. RECOMMENDATIONS AND CONCLUSIONS 4.1 The transfer of a portion of Waverly Road to Blue Circle Canada Inc. effectively severs 639 REPORT PD-045-00 PAGE 3 the southerly portion of Waverly Road from the northerly portion of Waverly Road. It is appropriate to rename the southern portion of Waverly Road as the closure and conveyance of the land to Blue Circle effectively stops passage along Waverly Road. Maintaining the street name Waverly Road to the south of Blue Circle's lands will create confusion with drivers, delivery and emergency vehicles. Presently, Watson Drive intersects with the southern portion of Waverly Road. It is recommended that Waverly Road be renamed "Watson Crescent", and Watson Drive be renamed "Watson Crescent" reflecting the crescent road pattern. 4.2 A small portion of Waverly Road abuts Cedar Crest Beach Road, and this portion of road is the logical extension of Cedar Crest Beach Road. It is recommended that this portion of Waverly Road be renamed "Cedar Crest Beach Road". 4.3 The proposed changes to the street names will eliminate future confusion for drivers, delivery and emergency vehicles. It is recommended that the attached by-law proposing changes to the Street Name Map and Street Name Inventory be passed. Reviewed by, Da 1 . rome, M.C.I.P., R.P.P.
