 27th June 2008
Cllr Sarah Lunnon, Leader of the Green group on the District Council
seconded a motion with Lid Dem Leader Cllr Dennis Andrewartha to set up
a Waste Strategy Advisory Panel. This panel will assist the
Administration in devising, formulating and implementing an extensive
and robust waste policy.
Cllr Lunnon said: "I am delighted this proposal gained the support of the Administration. This panel, which will be made up of a representative of each party, is our best hope at developing a coherent cross-party approach to tackling our waste in the District. Unless we get to grips with this issue we are in danger of facing huge and rising costs from continuing to landfill our waste. Worse still we could face a monster incinerator being built locally, when there are much more sustainable choices which are less damaging and costly in the long term."
