Minutes:

Cabinet received the joint waste resources and street cleansing report from the head of housing and environment. The report sought approval of the Joint Waste Resources and Street Cleansing Strategy.

 

The Cabinet member for environmental services and waste introduced the report highlighting this was a joint policy created with South Oxfordshire District Council which set out the ambitions for household waste and cleanliness of streets across the districts. The Cabinet member thanked the scrutiny committee for their comments and noted that they were mostly agreed whilst some required further research.

 

Cabinet thanked officers for their work and commended the level of engagement which had taken place throughout the development of the policy with the outcome being a more engaging strategy that targeted younger audiences. Cabinet noted that whilst they welcomed some of the legislation in this area from central government the funding was needed to support this.

 

RESOLVED: That Cabinet:

 

(a) approves the Joint Waste Resources and Street Cleansing Strategy as attached in Appendix 1.

 

(b) delegates to the Head of Housing and Environment to make any minor changes to future versions of the strategy in consultation with the Cabinet member for Environmental Services and Waste
