The CEC Transport and Environment Committee will be considering a report at their meeting on 26 June 2025 which sets out the recommended waste collection service for the streets in the Phase 6 area of the Communal Bin Review. This area includes most of the New Town. Appendix 2 of the report sets out the latest recommendations for each street.
The New Town and Broughton Community Council has submitted a written deputation and will be making a verbal deputation to the meeting.
While welcoming the decision to retain a kerbside collection service using gull proof sacks for most of the streets that have that service currently, the deputation highlights concerns with the consultation process and the lack of adequate engagement with residents where the service is changing. A number of street associations have submitted their own deputations highlighting the impact on their residents.
