In my case, our internal addresses are not part of the designated private IP addresses. It's been that way since the 90's, but the new Windows/network manager insists they be changed.

I'm curious about the rationale of your network guy for changing addresses or address schemes - on a regular basis it seems. What does he hope to accomplish by this? I fail to see the benefit - except for billable hours.

Just wondering what I'm missing here.
