Purpose

To introduce a Partnership Street Naming and
Numbering Policy.

Decision

RESOLVED:
 
1.    
That the report, policy and feedback
from Corporate and Community Overview and Scrutiny Committee,
attached at Appendix 2, be noted;
 
2.    
That the South and East Lincolnshire Councils Street Naming and
Numbering Policy for adoption by Boston Borough Council be
approved; and
 
3.    
That authority be delegated to the Group Manager Building
Control and the Assistant Director Regulatory to make such
amendments to this policy as may from time to time be required in
order to (i) reference any links or
amended links to other documents as may be required; and (ii)
reflect any issues over which the Council has no discretion
including, but not limited to, references to any legislative
changes and amended guidance. Any material amendments to the policy
will be subject to the usual approval process in line with the
Constitution.

Reasons for the decision

To align and harmonise current best practice
and procedures across the three Councils.

Alternative options considered

·      
Do nothing – this wouldn’t harmonise SNN across the
partnership.
 
·      
Producing a standalone policy for Boston Borough Council
wouldn’t align and harmonise processes and would limit the
opportunity to share resources.
