Mrs
Shepherd outlined that the Kent Joint Municipal Waste Management
Strategy (KJMWMS) was set by the Kent Resource
Partnership. This was designed to
ensure waste was managed effectively in Kent. The KJMWMS complemented other MBC strategies, and
focussed on ensuring that waste was largely kept within
Kent.
In
response to a question from the Committee, Mrs Shepherd stated that
treating waste locally was positive, as it ensured that residents
could be engaged in the process. This
in turn promoted further recycling.
Furthermore, through engagement with housing developers to shape
future developments, recycling could become a fundamental part of a
community.
RESOLVED:That the refreshed Kent Joint
Municipal Waste Management Strategy 2018/19 to 2020/21 is
adopted.
