Roadway Naming Rules
The following rules should be adhered to when naming or renaming a road:
· Avoid family names or individuals names (especially first and last name together and politicians)
· Avoid sound-alike names (e.g., Maine St and Main St)
· Do no use the same name with a different suffix, as this does not constitute a name change (e.g., Smith Dr, Smith Ln)
· Avoid special characters, such as apostrophes or hyphens
· Avoid using a standard suffix as a part of a roadway name (e.g., Court St, Avenue Ln)
