KNYSNA NEWS FLASH - A policy in respect of street naming and numbering has been compiled by the Knysna Municipality Street Names Committee.
"Wherever possible, all streets in the greater Knysna municipal area should have street names and all properties that have erf numbers should have street numbers," said Knysna Executive Mayor Georlene Wolmarans.
"This policy, enforced by the committee, will ensure that street names are not duplicated within the same town and that names are not offensive," she continued. "The policy also governs various other aspects with regards to naming new streets, ensuring that this is done in line with national policies and without creating any confusion. It is also concerned with street numbering regulations."
The policy also allows for any person to approach the office of the Municipal Manager with a well-motivated request or suggestion for the change of an existing street name.
