Legal Documents of Kingston

There is hereby established an official system of street names in the City of Kingston as shown on the street index map of Kingston, Tennessee, dated 1984, as produced by the municipal planning commission, a copy of which is available for public use and inspection in the city clerk's office.

Names of streets in the City of Kingston shall remain as shown on said map unless officially changed by specific ordinance.

No new streets shall be accepted by the city nor municipal improvements made therein until such streets have been named. If they are extensions of existing streets, the existing names shall be continued. If they are not extensions, the names recorded shall not duplicate or closely approximate street names already assigned. The city shall maintain an official streets and roads map in the office of the city manager, and shall update said map as required. The showing or identification of streets, roads and rights-of-way on said map as public streets, roads or rights-of-way either open or unopened, shall not be construed to mean that the city will or is obligated to open, construct of otherwise participate in the development of new streets beyond such acts such as inspections and other acts required to complete the public acceptance processes used by the city. (2009 Code, § 16-113)
