The new plan looks ahead to 2038
Residents in Nottingham and across the county are being encouraged to share their thoughts on a new plan to treat waste more sustainably. Nottingham City Council and Nottinghamshire County Council are working together to form the Nottinghamshire and Nottingham Waste Local Plan, which will replace the current core strategy adopted in 2013.
An informal consultation has already been carried out with more than 280 comments received. This new plan, which could be rolled out from autumn 2024, aims to ensure that there is a sufficient range of sites in the county which are able to meet expected future demand for recycling and waste management in the most sustainable way.This plan is designed to meet national recycling targets for household waste of 65 percent and reduce the volume being sent to landfill sites.
“The strategy sets out how we plan to sustainably meet the expected future demands for recycling and waste management and hit the ambitious targets which have been set. How we manage our waste is an issue that affects everyone from residents to businesses and developers, so having taken on feedback from previous consultations we look forward to hearing all views on this new plan.”
“We have taken into account views from previous consultations and would now like members of the public to have their say on the latest version of the plan, which we intend to submit to the Secretary of State for independent examination. We look forward to receiving your comments and, if you have any questions about how to make representations and the plan, please visit our website and do not hesitate to get in touch.
