Origin of name and history
The name Jindalee was proposed by the Shire of Wanneroo on 29 June 1979 and is an Aboriginal word meaning "a bare hill", most likely referring to Eglinton Hill and within the locality.
On 18 November 2003, the Western Australian Planning Commission approved the Butler-Jindalee District Structure Plan with around 900 residential lots proposed.
The Eden Beach Foreshore Playground opened on 24 September 2016 and provides a place for families to experience the playground and beaches.
