Planning and Environment Committee Meeting 5 April 2011 Page 332.5 Proposed Renaming Of Mortimer Street, Minto2.5 Proposed Renaming of Mortimer Street, MintoReporting OfficerManager Environmental PlanningAttachmentsLocation planPurposeTo seek Council's approval to rename Mortimer Street at Minto to Hotham Road.HistoryMortimer Street was constructed by the Housing Commission of NSW in the mid 1970’s as partof their residential development in Minto. The three main roads within this development, includingMortimer Street, were named after early local land grantees. William Mortimer was granted 63acres of land in the Parish of St Peter on 20 June 1816, close to the present day intersection ofCampbelltown Road and the Hume Highway.At its Extraordinary Meeting on 18 April 2006, Council approved the concept plan anddevelopment control plan for the Minto Renewal Project which included the construction of anumber of new streets and the realignment of some existing roads. Construction works withinStages 5 and 6 of the Minto Renewal Project (or One Minto Project as it is now known) have nowcommenced and will result in a major realignment of Mortimer Street. As a result, Landcom haverequested that Council consider a proposal to rename Mortimer Street and have suggested thename Hotham Road from the list of road names approved for the Minto Renewal Project area byCouncil at its meeting on 10 June 2008, based on the theme of Australian mountain peaks andranges.ReportThe following reasons are provided in support of the proposal to rename Mortimer Street:1. Mortimer Street currently runs generally in a north-easterly direction between GuernseyAvenue and Benham Road. Works associated with Stages 5 and 6 of the One MintoProject involve the closure of over half the length of this existing road from its intersectionwith Benham Road and the construction of a new section of road through to an extensionof Gawler Avenue. Once these works are complete, this road will run generally in aneasterly direction (see the location plan included as Attachment 1 to this report). Theproposed renaming will help emphasise that the alignment of this road has significantlychanged and this will assist in avoiding any future confusion by the travelling public andemergency services.
