Decisions:

1. That the Street Naming and Numbering Policy document as set out in Appendix A of the circulated report be approved

2. That the changes to the fees charged for services delivered by the Street Naming & Numbering function as set out in Appendix B of the circulated report be approved

3. That delegated powers be granted to the Director of Environment and Regeneration, and the Head of Engineering and Transport, for the naming of new streets and renaming of existing streets in the County Borough

 

Reason for Decisions:

 

1. The increase in fees will reflect the current costs of delivering this service.

 

2. The ambiguity that currently exists within the street naming and numbering service will be resolved and service users will be aware of their obligations to provide information and to register properties. The Welsh Language and historic names/places will be protected as set out within the report.

 

3. To enable the effective management of Street Naming and Renaming function within the Authority. Before a street can be named or renamed the process requires consultation with homeowners and businesses effected by the changes in addition to local Ward Members, so key stakeholders have to agree the change before it happens. Any disagreements with Ward Members or local businesses/homeowners would still be brought to Cabinet Board for decision.

 

Implementation of Decisions:

 

The decision will be implemented after the three day call in period, which ended at 9am, Sunday 9 October 2022.
