Southgate Court Recycling and Refuse Improvement Consultation
Background
Islington's 2023-2025 waste and recycling reduction plan sets out our goal to recycle 40% of the waste collected from households in Islington, to create a cleaner, greener, heathier borough.
To achieve this goal, we are committed to:
- Providing all estates with enough recycling bins so that residents can recycle at all times
- Placing recycling bins in a convenient location for residents
- Maintaining recycling facilities to a good standard
- Engaging with residents to achieve higher levels of recycling on our estates
By focusing on the objectives above, we aim to make it easier for residents to recycle more and eliminate fly-tipping at Southgate Court.
The council plans to spend £2 million over the course of three years to ensure facilities on estates are clean, well-maintained and easy to use. Therefore, this project will be fully-funded and will not be rechargeable to residents
Southgate Court
Southgate Court currently doesn't have enough recycling bins available for residents to recycle when they want to. Members of the public also use the bins for Southgate Court, meaning they fill up quickly and make the area look untidy.
We have worked with the Housing and Operations team to develop proposals that will increase the number of bins on Southgate Court and stop other members of the public from using the bins.
How you can get involved
If you're a resident living on Southgate Court estate, please take a moment to read through the proposals we have put together and then complete the survey below. This will help us decide which proposal to implement.
If you have any thoughts or ideas you'd like to share with us on this project, then please take a moment to express these on question 11 of the survey.
How we will use your feedback
Once the consultation is closed, we will review all responses, identify the preferred proposals and explore if any of the submitted suggestions are feasible to implement.
We will then communicate the final proposal we will be moving forward with to residents in December and implement changes in the new year.
All responses will remain anonymous and your data will not be shared with any third parties.
