It 's up to council mm not cops -to name roads: Challinor By IRENE GENTLE The Champion Emergency services are in place to patrol and protect local roads, not to naine them, said Councillor John Chaitinor. But simitar sounding street narnes can be confusing when it comes 10 dispatching police and tire services, according to a Town staff report. And safety is more important than historical exactitude, said Councillor Lieven Gevaert at a recent Town administration and planning committee meeting. The commîttee was wrestling over the naine of a new cast-west access to EighUi Line, north of the CP rail uine. Mr. Challinor preferred the naine Aubum Road, in commemoration of a hamlet that had once stood at the corner of Derry and Trafalgar roads in the 1 800s. But the police were concerned that the road could be confused with an Aubum Creseent, located in Burtington. Ini light of Uiat, staff were opting to cati Uic road Agerton instead. According to a staff report, the names Aubumn and Agerton were used interchangeabiy for Uic amati community that once boaated a blacksmiàthing shop and a hotel. But Agerton wouid have the advantage of being the only one of its kind in Halton. * ~Nissn sales aie rocklenand lme reslyed 2000 Ahma b molii.' ovem' lim c@m pllone 200 Afinm GXE" %nifca m , Am d orulgnk<hiâd a mwvnbgu $298/mo.t48/m . oo* slso cwm o 23,798 puchms.proe utW Entry Mdsind Car ln hItial QuiKy 3 eut of thé Lust 4 YOars - J.O.

Ses dwWlr (R demils- John Challînor Milton shoutd 'stick to historical accuracy and cati Uic road Aubum, insisted Mr. Chaitinor. That was tire naine Uiat he, along with local hiatorian Jirn Dilla, had originaily recornrended for tire road. *That was Uic naine of Uic comn- munity," ire said. "Let's be accu- rate and do it night." I tire end, a majority of commit- tee members agreed with him, pasaing Auburn as Uic new naine. But not before Mr. Gevaert noted that he wouid vote on the aide of caution and endorse Agerton. "in on the other aide of thia issue," he aaid. "When it cornes to safety versus iristoricat, I'rn going to go wiUi aafety." And the historical fiavour airouldn't be bast since the staff report stated that the two naines had been used interchangeably for w w w w w - ---- - mm -' A the harniet, said Mr. Gevaert. "Uniess the report written here is totaliy wrong, uniess it is fuît of beans, that is what it is cailed," he said. "My priority is safety over history." But safety wiil not likely be a probiem since thre 911 system should be able to distinguish between sirnilar roada in t-laiton, said Mr. Chailinor. "Today there are hundreds of roads where the names are the saine. I don't think it is really going to be an issue," he said. "We are bordering on the ridiculous when we can't namne a road in rural Milton Auburn Road because there is an Auburn Crescent in Burlington." And more than history is at stake in the nasning of thre road, said Mr. Challinor. He ciairned tie future of who has the power to naine roads is also in perdl. 1I thmnk we are missing thre point here. It is about who sets precedent for narning roada," said Mr. Challinor. "These decisions sliouid be made by Milton counicil, not Uic Haiton Regionai Police." He aiso chailenged the notion that tbe namnes Auburn and Agerton were used interchangeably in Uic past. The issue came before counicit Monday (Sept. 20). Resuits were not available at press time. 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 hb-
