The Building Control Section has a legal obligation to name and number
Roads/properties
in accordance with the Public Health Act of 1925. It does however administer a service to re-name and
re-number property for which it currently does not charge a fee. There is no legal obligation under
the controlling legislation to do this and in the current financial environment it has been decided
to recover the Administrative costs by levying a charge for the renaming of property in order to not
burden the Council tax payer for this service which is serving the needs of individuals.
