Road Names
A name is required for any unnamed road providing access to more than one lot or to one lot with more than two buildings or four or more houses. Road naming must occur before a land division map is recorded or before a final building inspection is granted. You can also apply to name a road or change a name through petition of the property owners located on the road.
We've designed a guide to help answer your questions about the road name process:
