The ACT Planning and Land Authority is seeking nominations of notable Australians for inclusion in the ACT's nomenclature database to be used to name future suburbs, streets and parks. This will be an ongoing project, nominations are always welcome. Simply fill in the nomination form below.
When proposing names for commemoration in the ACT's nomenclature, please consider the place names processes and the following guidelines:
- To be nominated in Canberra's street nomenclature a person must be deceased (a 12 month grace period applies before a name can be commemorated); and
- names that are likely to cause offence or confusion are avoided.
- names should be unique (not used before). Please check proposed name against those already in use by entering the name into our Place name search. If the name has been used before it is most unlikely that the nomination will gain approval.
The information you provide in the fields below should be comprehensive enough to create a suitable biography.
Please do not hesitate to contact the Place Names Officer on 62050057 if you have any questions.
