  • Councillor R a Shore.Pdf
    COUNTY COUNCIL MEETING – 20 MAY 2016 Statement from: Councillor R A Shore, Executive Councillor for Waste & Recycling PRESENT SITUATION Service Changes Decisions have recently been finalised for changes to take place in the waste and recycling service in order to help the Council to fill the shortfalls in the budget. These included: Our Household Waste Recycling Centre (HWRC) policy is to make sure that 95% of residents are within a 12 mile radius of a recycling facility and the closure of the Centre at Whisby and Leadenham, won't affect that. Additionally, these sites are not owned by the Council and would require additional costs to the Council and staff resource to make required improvements. Residents who previously took their recycling to the HWRC at Leadenham are encouraged to visit the newly built HWRC at Sleaford instead; those who used Whisby are encouraged to visit the site at Great Northern Terrace in Lincoln. We understand this may mean slightly longer journeys for some people and there is a concern that this will result in increase in fly-tipping. As most fly-tip waste is trade in origin, it is considered that the vast majority of Lincolnshire residents are law abiding and the potential for an increase in fly-tipping is minimal. We have stopped offering recycling credits to voluntary and charity groups. Unfortunately, due to budgetary constraints, we can no longer afford to do this. This was a difficult decision, but it is necessary to ensure the Council continues to provide the core waste disposal service which is essential for our residents.
