Council publishes a fortnightly advertisement in the local paper, The Regional Independent. Below you will find the latest advertisement.
Council has received a request from the proponents of the South Jerrabomberra Urban Release Area at Tralee to name two new streets in Stage 2B of Estate 2 of the subdivision.
Council has previously worked with the applicant’s consultant and the NSW Geographical Names Board (GNB) to generate a pre-approved list of names for this development which differ from those elsewhere in the local government area and meet the criteria for road naming set down by the GNB. The developer has chosen Calathea Loop and Pandorea Way from this list of pre-approved road names to progress to approved for use. These names continue with Australian flora as a theme.
Background
Calathea spp, common varieties known as Prayer plant, rattlesnake plant, zebra plant, cathedral plant, peacock plant is a popular indoor plant grown for its highly decorative foliage that comes in an assortment of eye-catching patterns, colours, and shapes. These versatile plants thrive in medium to low light, making them a good choice for indoor environments.
Though it has a reputation for being somewhat fussy, calathea plants are easy to grow when given the right conditions. In addition to being highly decorative, they are one of the best plants for cleansing indoor air of harmful pollutants. Source: www.anbg.gov.au; www.gardendesign.com/houseplants/calathea.html
Pandorea jasminoides, commonly known as Bower of Beauty, Bower Vine or Bower Climber is an evergreen, vigorous woody climber, and member of the Bignoniaceae family. Although typically found in tropical and subtropical rainforests and warm temperate areas of eastern Queensland to northern New South Wales, it will thrive in southern Australia if provided sufficient moisture and frost protection when young. Despite being frost tender to 5˚C it survives Canberra winters in sheltered areas.
Growing in most soils that are moist and well-drained (acidic soils are also suitable) it prefers full sun or part-shade. Adequate sunlight is required for good flowering and as a rainforest climber it will grow to reach for sunlight. Pandorea jasminoides tolerates a range of humidity conditions and due to growing well in inner urban areas it is assumed to be smog tolerant.
