The formalized structures for public participation in Cape Agulhas are five ward committees which consist of ten members each under the chairmanship of the applicable ward councilor. Ward committees meet once every month to discuss matters affecting their ward and general governance and development matters. The ward committees advise Council on matters affecting the residents of Cape Agulhas Municipality. Each ward councilor provides quarterly feedback to the residents of the ward on decisions taken by the Municipal Council, new developments, programs and proposals.
