Submit a Road Naming Suggestion

Council has an "available road names list" that is used by Council's Development Engineers and land developers to find suitable road names for new subdivisions or by the Geospatial Team when an existing road requires a road name for addressing purposes.

Council is inviting the community to provide locally significant road naming suggestions to add to the list. The suggestions need to be unique to Ballina Local Government Area (LGA) and not similar in spelling or pronunciation to existing road names.

To submit your road naming suggestion, please complete the following steps:

What happens next?

• An “Eligibility Check” will be run to ensure the road name is available.
• Name details are added to the ‘available road names list’
• The road name is advertised following a decision of Council.
• Any new addresses will be allocated once the road name is approved, and signposted.
• Australia Post and other major organisations will be notified of any address changes.
