City Council has previously directed that no new applications to name or rename streets or other civic properties received after October 1, 2020, be considered while a review of the City's commemorative policies and programs is underway. Since the proposed laneway naming was initiated and public engagement began prior to October 1, 2020, staff are recommending that the application be approved despite the moratorium. City Council approval is required to authorize this exception.

Staff recommended

Engineering and Construction Services recommends that: 1. Despite the previous moratorium on the naming and renaming of civic properties, City Council approve the name "Reese Fallon Way" for an existing public lane located south of Gerrard Street East, extending easterly from Wayland Avenue.
