Executive Board is recommended to:
· Acknowledge that the vast majority of the City’s residents use their waste and recycling services appropriately, but that the city needs all residents to take responsibility for their domestic waste and manage it well.
· Endorse the programme of co-ordinated communications, marketing and engagement to provide the information, tools and services to support, as a social norm, good waste and recycling habits with a positive impact of local neighbourhoods.
· Consider the use of targeted enforcement powers to enforcement action for persistent unreasonable waste and recycling behaviours.
