Street Name Policy:
All new private road, municipal street and provincial road names shall conform with the following principles:
(1) Avoid duplication - there should be no duplication of road names. It is also preferable not to differentiate road and street names exclusively by selecting a different road type, for example, Portland Road and Portland Drive.
(2 Avoid confusion - road names that sound very similar should be avoided. The reason for avoiding similar or similar sounding names is to eliminate diction problems when people are reporting road names under stress.
(3) Establish continuity - a road running in one compass direction should have one name only and should have the same name throughout its entire length in the Municipality and, if possible, in adjoining municipalities.
In particular, the following standards shall be applied:
(1) Road names shall:(a) be easy to pronounce;
(b) be comprised of recognizable words or acceptable combination of words;
(c) be easy to spell for a person of intermediate reading level;
(d) take into account any long standing local usage of names or words used in the name;
(e) be in good taste; and
(f) contain only those special characters which can be electronically recorded and manipulated with ease using varying conventional software, and shall exclude stylized symbols.(2) Qualifying words such as Upper, Lower, New, Old, etc., should be avoided unless the qualifying word has been applied in some other official context (for example as found in the Nova Scotia Gazetteer).(3)
All names must have an associated road type and the road type must conform with the road type criteria in the attached Road and Street Type Schedule, but existing Mon-conforming road types may be continued to avoid the cost, confusion and disturbance of changing only a road type.(4) Road and street names should be alpha-numeric and name submissions using a numeric should be rejected: for example, "First Street" would be acceptable, but
"¡S Street" should not be accepted.(5) Where a new road or street is a continuation of an existing road, wherever possible the new road or street will be given the same name as the existing road or street.There will be no duplication of road or street names within the Municipality and, + if possible, duplication of names with names used in immediately adjoining municipal unites should be avoided.(7) Road and street names, including abbreviated road and street type, shall have no more than 35 characters.(8) If the road or street is named after a topographic feature or location, the name should reflect the official name as found in the Nova Scotia Gazetteer.A personal name (a combination of given name and surname) should not be applied to a municipal street or provincial road unless such application is in the public interest. The person commemorated should have contributed significantly in the area in which the road is located. The adoption of a personal name during the lifetime of the person concerned should only be made in exceptional circumstances. Formal titles of distinction, such as Captain, Major, Admiral, etc., should be avoided.(10 A name that is intended to be commemorative of a person or event must be
historically accurate. A person or group proposing a commemorative name must submit to the Civic Addressing Coordinator evidence or proof of the accuracy of the proposed name, and any interested person or group may submit evidence or proof to the contrary.
(11) Company or commercial product names and names associated with copyright or trademarks should be avoided.(12) Words should be spelled correctly.(13) Names with mixed language should be avoided except to the extent of always using an English road or street type.
