Renaming of Karen's Way extending between Barberry Place and Rean Drive

The proposed name "Thomas Clark Way" complies with the Policy, however, renaming of streets is addressed in section 3.4 of the Street Naming Policy which states: "3.4 Streets that have been named, renamed, or assigned a ceremonial name within the previous ten years will not be renamed." Because the original naming of this street occurred in 2018, a renaming at this time is not in compliance with the Street Naming Policy. Therefore, this report recommends that the renaming be rejected. Community Councils have delegated authority to decide street naming matters which comply with the Street Naming Policy. As this renaming is not in compliance with the Street Naming Policy, North York Community Council does not have delegated authority to approve a renaming. Any renaming of this street at this time would require the consideration and approval of City Council.
