Review Panel
will be responsible for maintaining the
PSNL, a list of names in use and
providing advice and recommendations
on Naming.
These policy changes support three key naming processes, see Attachment 4:
• Neighbourhood Naming
• Local and collector roads and parks
• Municipally owned buildings, arterial roads and major infrastructure
Stakeholder Communications or Engagement
The process has been vetted with the potential members of the Technical Review
Panel – Culture, the Museum, Arts and Heritage Foundation of St. Albert (AHF).
Implications of Recommendation(s)
a) Financial:
• n/a
b) Legal / Risk:
• n/a
c) Program or Service:
This policy and the associated procedures formalize the process that is already
the responsibility of Planning and Development (P&D) staff.
d) Organizational:
This may add some additional responsibilities to staff in P&D, Culture, AHF and
the Museum, but these are anticipated to be within current resource levels.
Alternatives and Implications Considered
If Council does not wish to support the recommendation, the following alternatives
could be considered:
Alternative 1. Not support the proposed changes.
Alternative 2. Provide additional direction to Administration.
Strategic Connections
