Street Naming

The City has a Street Naming Policy that clearly defines a process for the naming of streets or the changing of street names, and what steps are required to request a name change.

Applications from developers and residents are reviewed by the Street Naming Advisory Committee. The committee consults with the Inclusion Advisory Committee, and other groups as required, to support an equitable and diverse selection of names.

The Street Naming Committee is comprised of at least one representative from each of the following City divisions:

  • Office of the City Clerk
  • Corporate Information Services (CIS)
  • Organizational Performance and Strategy
  • St. John’s Regional Fire Department

The Committee may consult with various other departments as required.
