Public Open Spaces

Representation ID: 71492

Received: 11/03/2019

Respondent: CLLR Kristie Naimo

Representation Summary:

-On the section on waste bins to be provided, there is no section on recycling facilities. Is this now policy for any new Open Spaces - that WDC will not encourage recycling in public places by providing recycling bins? Could there be some flexibility to allow for this if suitable on a case by case basis?

-From a wildlife habitat/protection/enhancement point of view, there is no comment on amphibians, in particular newts in the section on Water bodies. Is that because species such as Great Crested newts are protected through other planning means? What about habitats other native amphibian?
