Appendix A
CITY OF KINGSTON NAMING OF CORPORATE ASSETS POLICY
Approved by City Council June 22, 2004
A. Purpose
This policy is to encompass the naming of any corporate asset including parks, open spaces,
facilities, streets and other municipal buildings or properties. The final decision for naming of
corporate assets will rest with City Council, including naming opportunities as a result of gifts
and sponsorships. The naming of a particular corporate asset is important for public
awareness, promotion and emergency access. Therefore, naming will be consistent with the
City of Kingston’s vision and will not contravene any policy of the City nor reflect negatively
on the City’s public image.
B. Intent
The intent of this policy is to:
Continue the current traditional practice of naming municipal property, buildings and
park elements after significant geographical, neighbourhood and historical elements;
Recognize on an exception basis, significant contributions that organizations or
individuals have made to the public life and the well-being of the people of Kingston;
Provide direction of how to apply for approval to name, rename or dedicate municipal
property, buildings or park elements.
C. Policy Statements
1. There are four, main types of naming situations this policy intends to address:
Opening of a new corporate asset or reopening of a corporate asset following
refurbishment;
Honouring individuals or groups;
Recognizing international, national or provincial events/competitions;
Providing recognition of gifts, sponsorships and joint ventures.
2. The selection of a name will be based on a number of criteria including but not limited to:
A longstanding local area identification with the residents;
Understandable to the majority of citizens in Kingston;
Consistent with any other applicable policies and naming guidelines;
Assists with emergency response situations by being consistent with street names and
geographical locations and meeting the requirements of Kingston Fire and Rescue,
Kingston City Police, and Kingston Regional Ambulance Services;
Consistent with sponsorship levels.
3. Preference will be given to names that:
Give a sense of place, continuity and belonging reflecting the geographic location,
community, neighbourhood or street where the corporate asset is located and/or;
Recognize the historical significance of the area and/or;
Reflect unique characteristics of the site and/or;
Reflect the type of service offered and/or;
Are in keeping with a selected theme and/or;

Page 17 of 67
corporate sponsorship – four, ice pads at INIVSTA Centre
City of Kingston - F31-CSG-RLS-2013-02
Honour individuals, living or deceased, who have made a significant contribution to the
community.
4. Names will not be chosen that:
• Cause confusion due to duplication or names sounding similar to existing locations within
Kingston;
• Are the names of tobacco companies;
• Lend themselves to inappropriate short forms or modifications;
• Are discriminatory or derogatory considering race, gender, creed, political affiliation, or
other similar factors;
• Recognize the birth, marriage or anniversary of specific individuals (this can be done
through individual dedications of benches and trees though Parks and Arenas).
5. Names of persons, organizations, corporations, foundations or their families will be
considered when they have made a significant contribution to the City by:
• Enhancing the quality of life and well-being of the City;
• Contributing to the historical or cultural preservation of the City;
• Contributing toward the acquisition, development or conveyance of land or building;
• Achieving excellence in their endeavours and representing Kingston in a meritorious
manner and/or;
• Where there is a direct relationship or association that exists between former place of
residence of the person or group and the asset to be named.
6. Naming in honour of elected or appointed public officials, City administrative officials or
staff shall occur posthumously.
7. Where the name of an individual is recommended after an in camera discussion, consent
shall be obtained from the individual or their next of kin prior to Council’s public
consideration.
8. Where the naming opportunity is as a result of a sponsorship or gift the following factors
must be considered:
• The significance of the contribution made relative to the construction and operating costs of
the item being named;
• The cost of establishing the naming option (e.g. cost of the signage to be paid by the
applicant unless the City has made the request for the name change);
• Sunset clause associated with the length of time that the name will be used. Naming
agreements may be renewed if the appropriate gift or sponsorship is received.
9. Existing names will not be changed without consideration of the historical significance of
the existing name, the impact on the individual or organization previously named, the cost
and impact of changing existing signage, rebuilding community recognition and updating
records (i.e. letterhead, databases, promotional materials). Each application will be
considered on a case-by-case basis.
D. Application Review and Approval Process
1. Applicant(s) shall submit a written request for civic naming to the City Clerk. The written
request shall provide the following:

• Background information concerning the rationale for consideration of the request;
• Biographical information if named after an organization or individual; and

support for the request.

suitability of the application
• Discuss in camera any naming in recognition of an individual prior to discussing it with the
individual or next of kin

possible objections to the requested civic naming
