Waste settlement

Here is a copy of the Late Report - Settlement of Waste Services Dispute that was presented to Council on 17 February 2009.






The following was Council's resolution:

RESOLVED: (COUNCILLORS M KING/S CONNELL)
Council hold in abeyance the motion of 18 November for a period of 3 months to allow for the following actions to occur with a report back to Council to consider the most appropriate way forward.

These actions are:
· A report to be prepared on what conditions are used in comparative Councils who have a waste collection service.
· A report be prepared on what conditions prevail in the private sector for waste services.
· Outcomes of an agreed process to consult with the community to determine required service levels for the community.
· A report be prepared on the outcomes of service reviews and the agreed replacement Local Area Workplace Agreement (LAWA).

The Lord Mayor declared the resolution was carried unanimously.
