The Shire of Capel is inviting community feedback on the Integrated Growth Framework and Plan (IGFP) — a key project shaping how our towns will grow while protecting the unique character, culture, and environment that make our region special.

The IGFP was endorsed for 60 days of public consultation at the 24 September 2025 Ordinary Council Meeting and will be open for comment until insert date here.

Community engagement will include:

  • Public drop-in sessions across townsites
  • A councillor workshop
  • Displays at local libraries and the Shire office
  • Updates via newspaper, social media, and the Shire website


What the IGFP Includes

The plan is made up of four key documents:

  1. Integrated Vision Framework – Sets a district-wide vision of “A Lifestyle of Choice, Connecting Community, Culture and Country.” It focuses on being “growth ready” while protecting Wadandi heritage and natural assets.
  2. Place Design Guide – Ensures growth in Capel, Boyanup, Dalyellup, Gelorup and Peppermint Grove Beach reflects each area’s unique character, with design principles for buildings, landscaping and public spaces.
  3. Masterplan Concepts – Provide high-level land use and design guidance for major growth areas, identifying opportunities for new neighbourhoods, town centre upgrades, improved movement networks and enhanced open spaces.
  4. Implementation Matrix – Outlines the action plan for each townsite, identifying priorities such as new recreation facilities, improved river and foreshore connections, and cultural heritage initiatives.
