A committee member suggested the city should seek a role in naming new roads created by private development and proposed asking council to reserve a portion of naming rights. The member said the group had discussed pursuing a workshop with the city council to explore giving the city a stake in naming — "maybe 10%" of new street names — rather than leaving naming entirely to developers.
Members agreed the idea merited discussion with council and suggested staff prepare a workshop or briefing that could explore options, legal constraints and implementation mechanisms. No formal policy change was adopted at the meeting; the item was discussed as a potential council workshop topic.
