Minutes:
Following the introduction of the silver bin kerbside recycling service there had been a significant reduction in the use of recycling banks across Cheshire East. The opportunity had been taken to review the number and type of banks provided in order to remove the duplication of provision and to refocus sites on materials not collected as part of the kerbside scheme, such as books, textiles and shoes, the reuse and recycling of which needed to be promoted.
RESOLVED
That approval be given to cease the provision of banks that duplicate the silver bin kerbside collection of materials, and to promote the provision of banks that collect materials not collected in the silver bin.
