2012 Report
Waste
Recycling Bags
I
was asked if it was possible for smaller blue recycling bags could
be supplied as they are quite difficult to manage by people of a certain
age! I have been promised that the Waste authority will consider purchasing
some smaller bags for more elderly people but this will not happen
until the bags are reordered later this year or early next year.
Waste
A
Waste partnership group has been set up comprising all local authorities
in Dorset with the exception of Bournemouth and Poole. This body has
published its long term plans for waste management that it hopes to
implement by 2014/15. They hope to achieve considerable savings due
to economies of scale and this will then pay for the weekly food waste
collection they plan for. Their plans are for a
• Weekly food waste collection
• Alternate recycling and waste collection (as at the moment)
• Garden Waste collection for an extra charge
I
will report on progress later this year.
Electoral
Review
It
now looks like there will be relatively minor changes to ward boundaries
although we will move to all out elections in 2015 where every seat
in Purbeck will come up for election once every four years. As Bere
Regis is a single member ward this is what happens here at the moment.
However this would be a major change in Wareham and Swanage where
they have three member wards and currently have District Council elections
every year except the fourth year when it is County Council elections.
The Boundary Commission is due to report on their findings in April
this year.
