Gunnedah Shire Council will hold a number of community ‘pop-up’ sessions and workshops throughout the Shire to consult with people ahead of development of a new 10-year Waste Management Strategy.
Gunnedah Shire Council manager waste, Sheridan Cameron, said community input was key to understanding people’s needs when it came to managing waste.
“The management of waste is a key role for any council,” Mrs Sheridan said. “Our shire covers nearly 5000 square kilometres, including beautiful natural areas and towns.
“At the moment, we are looking at Rural Waste Management Services and how we can address waste challenges into the future. It is critical to get this right, not only to provide the right services at an affordable rate for our community, but to do so in a responsible way that won’t leave problems for future generations.”
‘Pop-up’ consultation and workshops will be held in June at Carroll, Kelvin, Curlewis, Mullaley, Tambar Springs, Emerald Hill and Breeza.
