Minutes:
The Executive considered the Performance and Financial Monitoring Information (Green Book) December 2019. Discussion ensured on the waste sent for recycling figures on page 10 of the Green Book. Councillor Davis, Portfolio Holder for Waste and Recycling, advised that some recycling had been refused at the Materials Recovery Facility (MRF) due to contamination and had been sent instead to landfill. It was commented that making residents aware of what could and could not be recycled needed to be a constant campaign and that the Surrey Environmental Partnership was looking at the issue. It was suggested that recycling targets in the Green Book could need to be adjusted in light of changing recycling habits.
Following a question regarding fly tipping, the Executive was advised that it was not possible to quantify the amount spent on fly tipping because the work and resources to obtain evidence to prosecute cut across many agencies.
RESOLVED
That the Performance and Financial Monitoring Information, December 2019, be received.
Reason: To manage the performance of the Council.
