ORDINARY MEETING AGENDA                                                    16 FEBRUARY 2023


              Waste Management
        29.   A Waste Management Plan (demolition) must be submitted in accordance with
              Planning Scheme Policy PSP9 - Waste Management and approved by Council’s
              Waste Coordinator prior to issue of a development permit for Building Works for
              demolition, removal, or relocation.
              The purpose of the Waste Management Plan is to facilitate the segregation of
              waste for the effective reuse and recycling of such materials. Segregated wastes
              attract significantly reduced disposal fees at the landfill with some items free.
              Higher gate fees are charged for mixed waste.
              Waste storage areas must provide for adequate separation of all reusable,
              recyclable and waste materials. These must be located so that they are convenient
              and safe to use.
              The Plan must contain the following information:
              a.   The areas for the storage and separation of waste shown on a site plan;
              b. A waste management table as indicated below is to be completed showing
              how waste material is to be segregated - recycled – reused or disposed; and
              c. Table – Waste Management Table

              table is to be completed by the demolition contractor.
