Municipal Waste Management Strategy Consultation

About this Consultation

The emerging Municipal Waste Management Strategy for Bournemouth (MWMSB) aims to provide a framework for the future management of waste throughout the town.

Bournemouth Borough Council needs to plan ahead to effectively respond to the changes that will affect the way waste is managed. These changes include:

• Statutory targets for recycling and composting, imposed by government
• Changes in national/European legislation
• Statutory targets controlling landfill
• Increasing cost and taxation (annual increase of £8 per tonne until 2013)
• Changes in quantities and types of waste
• Expiry and renewal of relevant contracts.
• Increasing public aspirations /expectations.

Bournemouth Borough Council undertook a consultation exercise in order to obtain the views from interested parties on the development of the MWMSB.

The consultation took the form of:

• A consultation document on the Council website with the opportunity to feedback online
• Focus groups with local businesses, area forums, special interest groups and local environmental groups
• Six public roadshows attended by members from Hyder Consulting and Bournemouth Borough Council
