General Manager DRAFTCouncillor Tony Bowen DRAFT Mayor 4 RANDWICK CITY COUNCIL CITY PLAN 2012 5 Introduction About Randwick City Our history At the time of the first encounters with Europeans, Aboriginal people of different clan groups were living in the area now included in the Botany Bay National Park. The Randwick area is also important in the history of Australia’s European settlement. Captain James Cook landed at Botany Bay in April 1770. When the First Fleet arrived in 1788, Captain Arthur Phillip landed at Yarra Bay before moving on to Port Jackson. One week later an expedition led by the French explorer, La Perouse, arrived in Botany Bay and set up camp for six weeks in the area which now bears his name. White settlement was sparse in the area for many years, Aboriginal people have owing to the poor soil and swamps. However, in 1838 Coogee lived on the land on which was pronounced a township, and in 1855 the new village of Randwick City stands for Long Bay was established. In 1859 the Randwick Municipality tens of thousands of years. was proclaimed and the first council elections held making it one of the first local government areas in Australia. Randwick municipality grew rapidly after the tramline was built in 1880. Randwick hosted two nationally significant celebrations: the Centenary of Australia in 1888, and Federation of Australia in 1901, both of which were held in Centennial Park. After each of the two World Wars Randwick municipality continued to grow rapidly until the 1970s, with population growth only returning DRAFT to the levels of that time by theDRAFT year 2000. Randwick was proclaimed a city in 1990 and is a highly desirable place to live, work, visit and study. Randwick City is a diverse community made up of many cultural groups and a significant The Randwick City Plan celebrates our rich history and bright future.

  • Groundwater in the Botany Sands Aquifer – Water for the Past, Water for the Future?
    CASE STUDY 1.008 Groundwater in the Botany Sands Aquifer – Water for the past, water for the future? Author: Chris McAuley* The Botany Sands Aquifer is a layer of sand containing a large volume of water surrounding Botany Bay south of Sydney, New South Wales (NSW), Australia. At a local scale, the aquifer runs from Centennial Park south east of Sydney city centre to the Botany Wetlands and into Botany Bay. The Botany Sands Aquifer is layer of sand filled with water beneath the ground. It covers an area of approximately 141 square kilometres. The average groundwater salinity is around 500 milligrams per litre (mg/L) of dissolved solids. Before European settlement, it formed an important source of water for wetlands supporting aboriginal communities. The Botany Sand aquifer was once Sydney’s main water source. It remains an important source of water for parks, municipal and residential gardens, industry and wetlands. It may form an important part of Sydney’s water future by capturing and storing stormwater for later use. The aquifer is recharged by rainwater percolating through sand and sandstone which act as natural filters to remove solid litter, silt and harmful nutrients. The water holding capacity of the sand aquifer is enormous and has been estimated to contain up to 300 litres of water per cubic metre of sand. It is estimated the aquifer can sustainably supply 22,500 megalitres per year (ML/ yr - a megalitre is one million litres) of groundwater. Currently only approximately 6,000ML/yr is allocated for use. Figure 1: Extent of the Botany Sands Aquifer The groundwater helps to support natural and man-made pond systems along its flow path.
