Hi Reva,
Our addressing analyst was satisfied with "Mooregate Way' and our fire prevention staff are supportive of a private
street name for the Mooregate project. I will obtain their formal sign -off through a circulation of the application once
submitted.

Thanks Kevin,
If you could reserve Mooregate Way for now that would be great. My understanding is that our addressing policy
allows lower order streets to have the same name as the main street but with a more diminutive suffix, where they
branch off from one another (e.g. Lackner PI is a private street that connects to Lackner Blvd). I have reached out to
confirm with our addressing analyst and fire prevention staff as well, and will let you know if they request a different
name or suffix such as Place or Lane.
Thanks and have a great weekend,
Katie

Hello Katie,
Considering "Mooregate Cres" is already in use, and within the same development, I would advise against the use of
"Mooregate Way" for a new street name to avoid complications.
However, as you are the authority on street naming, if it is your wish we can reserve the name.

Hi Derrick,
I wanted to check to see if you were the current regional contact for private street naming?
We are anticipating a request for a Regional Housing project at 15-105 Mooregate Cres. The project team is hoping to
reserve "Mooregate Way" for a new private street name.
Could you let me know if you can reserve this?
Thanks!
Katie
