TOWN OF FOUNTAIN HILLS, ARIZONA
POLICY AND PROCEDURES
FOR CIVIC NAMING OF STREETS, BUILDINGS, STRUCTURES AND
RECREATIONAL FACILITIES
(Amended and Restated August 4, 2011)
In order to establish for the Town of Fountain Hills, Arizona (the “Town”) a formal procedure
and criteria for the selection of place names for any given building, street, public place, facility,
or natural feature within the Town limits or otherwise owned and/or operated by the Town, the
following Policy and Procedures (this “Policy”) is hereby adopted by the Mayor and Council of
the Town (the “Town Council”).
1. General Policies.
A. Naming Facilities and Streets. The Town Council shall approve, by
resolution, the naming of all municipally owned and/or operated buildings, structures, natural
features and recreational facilities, whether in whole or portions thereof (hereafter referred to
individually as a “Facility” or collectively as “Facilities”), and streets, roads or any public rights-
of-way (hereafter referred to individually as a “Street” or collectively as the “Streets”) within the
corporate limits of the Town. Portions of a Facility may have names other than that of the entire
Facility and features may be dedicated to or in honor of a person such as “Smith Beach” or
“Jones’ Amphitheater” at Fountain Park.
B. Recommendations to Other Bodies. This Policy should also be followed
in reviewing or preparing the Town’s official comments or recommendations to State, Federal,
and/or intergovernmental boards taking actions regarding geographic names, naming or
renaming of facilities or streets.
C. Town Council Consideration. The Mayor, three members of the Town
Council, or the Town Manager may request the naming or renaming of a Facility or a Street.
Thereafter, the Town Council shall discuss the requested renaming at a public meeting.
D. Public Notice. The Town Council shall provide appropriate public notice
of any Street or Facility naming actions in conjunction with other agenda items for regularly-
scheduled meetings.
E. Changes to Approved Names. Once a name has been officially approved
by the Town Council, changes should be strongly resisted.
F. Town Council Discretion. In all cases, the Town Council reserves the
right to accept or reject any proposal to name or rename a Street or Facility, in its sole discretion.
G. Town Manager Duties. The Town Manager, upon approval of the naming
or renaming action by the Town Council, shall implement names or name changes of Facilities
or Streets. The Town Manager shall notify those who have submitted the suggestion as well as
612257.5
2
other appropriate offices and agencies. Upon Town Council denial of a name or name change,
the Town Manager shall notify those who requested the name change.
2. Naming Criteria.
A. For Facilities and Streets Generally. Recognizing that the naming or
renaming of a Facility or Street should be approached cautiously with forethought and
deliberation, the following criteria are hereby established:
(i) To avoid duplication, confusing similarity or inappropriateness, the
Town Council, in considering name suggestions, shall review existing Facility and/or
Street names, as applicable.
(ii) In naming of Facilities and Streets, consideration shall be given to
geographic location, historical or cultural significance and natural or geological features.
In the development of a Facility, the address designation shall be used until the formal
naming of the Facility. Whenever possible, naming shall be made prior to the completion
of construction of a Facility or Street.
(iii) Facilities and Streets may be named only for a deceased individual
or individuals if the individual or individuals has/have enhanced the quality of life within
the Town, provided two years or more has elapsed between the consideration for naming
and the time of death of the individual or, in the case of related individuals, two years
after the death of one of the individuals. The deceased individual shall have performed
outstanding service in one or more of the following categories:
(a) Maintained involvement in a leadership role in civic
organizations that are devoted to community improvement.
(b) Provided assistance to the underprivileged, economically
disadvantaged or physically and/or mentally handicapped.
(c) Actively promoted and directed community events and
activities that have clearly added to the enrichment of the quality and quantity of
cultural life within the community.

and activities within the community for the Town’s youth.
(e) Actively promoted and implemented effective programs
and activities within the community for the Town’s senior citizens.

(g) Assumed an active leadership role in developing programs
and facilities directed toward the improvement of community social and health
needs as well as programs directed toward humanitarian purposes.
B. Additional Criteria Applicable to Streets. In considering the renaming or
naming of a Street, the Town Council shall consider the following:
(i) Street names, plats, specific sites and places and natural features
indicated on general usage maps for 50 years or more (age criteria applied by the
National Register of Historic Places) should only be changed under exceptional
circumstances. Street names shall not be similar in spelling or pronunciation to a
presently-existing major collector or arterial road in the Phoenix Metropolitan area. No
Street shall be named by number only according to the street numbering grid (i.e. 150th
Street) unless the Street follows a straight north-south alignment.
(ii) Attention should be paid to maintaining sequential, numerical and
alphabetical naming patterns when considering any Street name changes or additions.
All Streets shall be named and numbered consistently with the County-wide street
numbering system and no such name or change of name shall take effect until (a) the
affected public safety agencies have been notified and (b) all impacted public safety
dispatch maps have been amended. Any extensions of presently-existing Streets within
or into the Town shall bear the same name as the existing roadway. No Street name shall
contain a homonym.
(iii) New Streets shall be named according to the following guidelines:
(a) In most cases, the Street name will be proposed by the
property owner, reviewed by the Town staff and approved by the Town Council
as part of its consideration of a final plat for a development within the Town.
(b) If an unnamed private street is dedicated to the Town, the
name may be suggested by the property owners thereon, but the Town Council
shall make the final determination.
(iv) No Street shall be renamed unless:

Phoenix metropolitan area.
(b) There are no (or very few) buildings or another addressed
facilities presently existing along the Street.

612257.5
4
(d) The new Street name shall not be the same as a specific
living person within the Phoenix Metropolitan area.
C. Historical Reference. Changes of names for Facilities or Streets should
only be approved when they do not violate historical or common usage names. Facilities and
Streets may be named after research reveals that the area around the Facility or Street has been
commonly, yet unofficially, named by the residents in the area.
3. Donations; Sponsorships.
A. Donor Naming. Facilities and Streets may be permanently named for an
individual (alive or deceased), organization, or business if that individual, organization, or
business has made a donation of money, land or other goods and/or services to the Town equal to
at least half the full cost of the Facility or Street, either for purposes of developing a particular
Facility or Street or for the Town’s Capital Fund. Such arrangements will be called “permanent
naming.” Permanent Naming proposals from any company or organization whose business is the
sale of illegal substances or activities, or any product or activity deemed objectionable by the
Town Council, will not be considered.
B. Sponsorships. The Town may, at times, solicit sponsorship naming
opportunities, at which time the Town staff will solicit bids for naming rights to Facilities or
Streets from individuals, businesses and organizations. Sponsorship naming opportunities will
be for terms less than 20 years, as determined by the Town Council and shall have a minimum
value of at least $100,000. Funds collected from sponsorship naming may be either directly for
the purpose of developing the particular Facility or Street to be named (if the Facility or Street is
a new Facility or Street in need of funding), or the funds collected may go to the Town’s Capital
Fund if the Facility or Street to be named is an existing Facility or Street. The procedure for
sponsorship naming opportunities is as follows:
(i) Town staff will determine if submitted sponsorship naming
proposals meet the purpose and intent of this Policy and will rank its choices if more than
one proposal is to be considered.
(ii) Town staff will forward all qualified proposals along with its
recommendation to the Town Manager.
(iii) The Town Manager will forward all qualified proposals to the
Town Council and make a final recommendation to the Town Council.
