The Shire of York is seeking community feedback on the proposed name for the new public green space at 142 Avon Terrace.
Working with the Ballardong community, the proposed name is Kambarniny Maya, meaning “Our Gathering Place” in the Noongar language. (Kam-barn-in M-i-a)
Recognising the cultural heritage of the Ballardong people, the name reflects the purpose of the space as a welcoming location where people can meet, connect, celebrate and enjoy community activities.
We'd love to hear your thoughts on the proposed name, including whether a dual naming approach should be considered.
Your feedback will help Council determine the preferred naming approach before a formal application is submitted to Landgate.
Have your say by 5pm Friday 11 December:
Hard copies available at Shire Admin.
And some good news! After several years of planning and community consultation, construction is planned to begin in February 2027.
We're looking forward to seeing this new community space take shape!
