Do you think our Waste Minimisation and Management Plan (WMMP) is on the right track?
Yes
Do you agree with our proposal to adopt a zero waste attitude across the district by 2038?
No
Do you have any further comments on the WMMP?
While Zero Waste is a very laudable goal to attain to, it is also perhaps a step beyond the acheivable.
For commercial ratepayers a major part of out waste, which we pay privately to be removed is polystyrene packing. A separate way of collecting this very bulky form of waste for recyling would make a conciderable difference to the amount of commercial waste that ends up being dumped in our local landfill and subsequently the levies that it incurs. Something for concideration perhaps?
