On April 29 council agenda there is a staff report recommending street names for the King Jane Industrial Holdings Development at southeast corner of King Rd/Jane.  The two names are very appropriate and are in line with our policy of assigning historic names to new streets within King City. “Lorne Burbridge Drive” is named after Lorne Burbridge who was the Fire Chief of the King City Fire Department from 1980 to 1986. He spearheaded modernization of the fire department and ensured that an upgraded training program became a priority.  “Tannery Hill Rd.” is named after a farm of Henry Borden which was at the northwest corner of King Rd/Jane; he named it this as it was adjacent to the location of the leather tannery which had existed in Kinghorn.

As always you can participate in the Council and make a deputation on this motion  in person or virtually.  For details on how to do please see Council agenda.  Or you can send an email to clerks@king.ca by Monday noon with your comments, questions.
