Mandurah Northern Beaches - Our Coastal Future

Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Share on Linkedin Email this link

Coastlines naturally change over time. The City of Mandurah is working to identify how vulnerable its northern beaches and adjacent development are to coastal processes (erosion and flooding) through a Coastal Hazard Risk Management and Adaptation Plan (CHRMAP) project.

The objective of the project is to identify immediate, short (25 year), medium (25-50 year) and long term (50-100 year) coastal hazard risks and to plan for future land use and development in light of a changing coastal environment.

The project will provide advice on how the impacts of a changing coastline will influence development decisions in the area. The project will seek feedback on impacts and concerns of affected community members or groups. This will ensure that the adaptation plans are robust, fair and respond to existing community values.

This project aligns with and supports the State Government approach for decision-making in relation to coastal hazards.

    Community Workshop, Wednesday 26 August - REGISTRATIONS CLOSED

    The City of Mandurah is working to identify future potential impacts from coastal processes (erosion and flooding) to the northern beaches and adjacent development areas. The Coastal Hazard Risk Management and Adaptation Plan (CHRMAP) project will assess coastal risks and identify planning and management actions that respond to expected changes along the northern coastline.

    To inform the project, the City of Mandurah is is inviting community members to provide input into the CHRMAP.  

    The City is planning a community workshop to discuss:  

    1. What the community values about the coast
