Decision details

The Committee noted the impact that the Covid-19 pandemic had in not being able to safely undertake any Waste Day Events throughout the Summer and the bulky waste service being suspended between March and July 2020, alongside Nottinghamshire County Council’s Household Waste and Recycling Centre’s being closed. The impact had resulted in a backlog in bulky waste collections of around six weeks.  By providing additional funding to allocate resources to reduce the lead time this would provide a better service for residents and prevent residents using alternative carriers who may not be licensed.

RESOLVED that where required the funding allocated to the Clean and Green budget be used to reduce the lead time of the bulky waste service.
