Environmental Services - 7 November

Should have covered this earlier but a few points:

Item 6 - Cultural Services

It should be noted that we need to do better on the number attending local museums to maintain our culture score and thus our overall Excellent rating. I will cover things in more detail in a separate posting following Strategy Committee.

Item 8 - Kimpton Way Recycling Centre

Things have improved since April, when the site opened and I was present for the first queues. With only 26-30% of waste recycled I am still sceptical tha the site is large enough for what we hope will be increased visits. In addition the steps do seem to be off-putting to some residents who ahev complained to me about them.

Item 9 - Commercial Waste

Clearly take up has been less expeced. On the other hand this is an area we muc expand take up. I think we need to continue and to publicise it better with public reference to good business performers on the Council website and in Sutton Scene magazine. May be the Sutton Guardian can also publicise good performers on their Green Pages section?
