The area of Yering immediately east of Yarra Glen, adjacent to the Yarra River is generally known as the Yarra Flats Billabongs. Council is the Committee of Management of the
Crown land in this area bordered by the old and new routes of the Melba Highway.
After consultation between the Management Committee, the Friends of the Yarra Flats Billabongs and the Wurundjeri Tribe Land Compensation and Cultural Heritage Council Inc it has been proposed that this Crown land be formally named with the dual indigenous and English name ‘Murrup Brarn Yarra Flats Billabongs’.
The proposal has been referred to the Department of Sustainability and Environment and emergency authorities, and the Yarra Glen and District Historical Society, and public notice has been given of the proposal and public comment invited. No objection, or any other comment, has been received.
It is recommended that Council recommend to the Registrar of Geographic Names that the Crown land be named Murrup Brarn Yarra Flats Billabongs.
