It is the purpose of this chapter to implement a procedure establishing
criteria and a process for selection of names for certain public buildings,
properties, parks, park facilities and the placing of commemorative
benches and the planting of commemorative trees on Township-owned
properties.
The Township Committee of the Township of Washington will choose
names for public buildings and property owned by the Township of Washington
based on the building or property's relationship to any of the
following criteria:
A. Neighborhood,
geographic or common usage identification.
B. Building
or property's purpose.
C. A
natural or geological feature.
D. A
historical figure or place.
E. An
individual, living or deceased, who has made a significant land, building,
or monetary contribution to the Township of Washington for the building
or property being named.
F. An
individual, living or deceased, who has contributed outstanding civic
service to the Township of Washington and, if deceased, has been so
for a period of at least one year.
The interior features of a Township-owned building may be named
separately from the main building subject to the criteria and procedures
set forth in this chapter.
