35.1 The Lead Member considered a report by the Director of Communities, Economy and Transport.
DECISIONS
35.2 The Lead Member RESOLVED to:
(1) Approve continuing restricting vans and oversize vehicle access to Household Waste Recycling Sites (HWRS) to Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays only; and
(2) Approve all HWRS continue with cashless transactions for non-household waste which includes hardcore, soil, plasterboard, asbestos, and tyres.
REASONS
35.3 Restricting vans and oversize vehicle access to HWRS to Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays only will allow more thorough Trade Waste checks to be carried out.
35.4 Removing the option of paying by cash at non-franchised sites provides a number of benefits including that it removes the cost to East Sussex County Council of paying for the secure transport of cash takings and provides full electronic documentation of all transactions which is helpful concerning regulated activities such as waste disposal.
