Kwantlen First Nation Street Names in Fort Langley
Recommended Action
Therefore be it resolved that staff be directed to review and report back as soon as practical, preferably before National Indigenous Peoples Day on Friday, June 21st, with input and recommendation(s) to Council on the practicality and potential process for the following initiatives:
A. To formally rename Glover Road north of the Jacob Haldi Bridge to Kwantlen Boulevard, or an alternative name otherwise acceptable to the Kwantlen First Nation and the Township of Langley; and
B. To add interpretive road name signage in the Halkomelem language of the Kwantlen First Nation with the current, official English versions within the boundaries of:
i. the Fort Langley commercial area in close proximity to the current (and potentially new) Fort Langley Centennial Museum; or
ii. the Fort Langley “peninsula,” including Bedford Landing and
Brae Island;
to be confirmed and finalized in partnership with the Kwantlen First Nation, local expert(s), and the Township of Langley, completed and installed within 2019.
