   a) Have contributed significantly to the development of the locality or region; or
   b) Have demonstrated outstanding levels of civic service; or
   c) Have achieved role-model status in the wider community or have donated property or
       funds for community benefit; and

       partisan perception and change in community judgement and acceptance. For this
       reason they are not suitable choices for official names.

Naming and renaming roads

1. Road names should be unique within the locality and single destination, eg Eumundi Road,
   not Eumundi Noosa Road.

2. Road types will be in accordance with the Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices.

3. Council approval of new road names is required before a plan for subdivision is lodged.

4. Renaming of roads will only occur in extraordinary cases however a request for renaming
   may be initiated by an individual, community organisation or councillor.

5. Where duplication of road names already exists at the time of adoption of this policy, council
   will not change the name. Council may choose to rename the road subsequently:
   a) If requested to do so by a majority of the property owners fronting the road;
   b) If requested to do so by a Queensland State Department Director (e.g. Emergency
        Services); or
   c) At its own discretion.

Naming and renaming parks

1. Park names should be unique within the locality.

2. Renaming of parks will only occur in extraordinary cases however a request for renaming
   may be initiated by an individual, community organisation or councillor.

Naming and renaming community infrastructure

   of Uniform Traffic Control Devices to assist with wayfinding.

   request for renaming may be initiated by an individual, community organisation or councillor.
