Have your say on Eurobodalla's waste
Published: 26 September 2024
Eurobodalla Council is seeking feedback from the community to help set a 10-year vision for waste and resource recovery.
Council is developing a new waste strategy that will lead initiatives to improve waste reduction and landfill diversion, with an emphasis on reuse and recycling.
The Eurobodalla Waste and Resource Recovery Strategy 2025-2035 will help guide Council’s plans for the future of waste. Council’s acting waste manager Mel Norman said community input is crucial to the strategy.
“To develop a strategy and practical initiatives, we need to understand our community’s concerns, priorities, and aspirations.”
Council created three surveys to capture feedback from residents and businesses regarding general waste, food waste, and construction waste from builders and developers.
“Collecting the community’s insights and experiences will ensure the strategy is relevant, effective, and reflects the needs of those it serves, ultimately leading to a more sustainable future for waste and resource management,” Ms Norman said.
The strategy will also aim to meet NSW Government targets, such as reducing total waste per person by 10 percent by 2030.
“We would love to hear feedback on things like waste infrastructure, climate change resilience, manage plastic waste, tackle litter and illegal dumping, waste education, and service to the community,” Ms Norman said.
“The surveys will only take a few minutes, or maybe more if you have some great ideas to share.”
