Origin
Summary
On June 18, 2019, City Council requested through item MM8.5 that the City Manager report on the feasibility of naming a City Facility in honour of the late former Councillor, Milton Berger.
Parks, Forestry and Recreation worked with Strategic Partnerships and consulted with
the local Councillor to identify a new park at 21 Monte Kwinter Court as an appropriate location to commemorate the life and long-standing public service of Milton Berger.
On September 9, 2020, Council placed a short-term moratorium on naming and
renaming as part of the Recognition Review and Dundas Street Renaming and through item EX16.3. Naming services resumed once the moratorium was lifted and after Council approved a new framework for commemoration in the public realm on July 19, 2022, through item EX34.6.
