	Submission No. 4855 – Debbie Healey spoke to her submission and said that she considered educating people to recycle was the key.
Councillor Tapine joined the meeting at 1.15pm.
	This concluded the verbal presentations and the Committee referred to the Statement of Proposal.
	The Chief Financial Officer, Mr Allan and Finance Policy Advisor, Mr Humphrey addressed the committee on how options for incentivising waste collections and different models of waste collections could be included in the rates. Rates could only be set once a year and this could create issues when households changed and they wish to have a different size bin. In regard to multi-unit properties sharing and combining the household waste as one property would be very difficult to administer. Every property would be charged and standard option of one size fits all for rating processes.

	Ms Hamilton advised that in her opinion trials had been completed throughout New Zealand and in some Council areas for 15 years. She believed there was no need to trial a service. Other councils have used education, offering vouchers for home composting solutions, classes. Engage more with industry see how can work together. Need for e-waste or bigger refuse collections – build into any other contracts No e-waste kerbside collections. More resource recovery network centres. Recovery centre may be in competition of Op Shops. Recovery resource centres goes further than op shops.
	Mrs Atkins displayed a powerpoint presentation (SW-25-18-4458) from the Waste MINZ Resource Recovery Centre Tour held in August 2017.

The meeting adjourned for lunch at 12.30pm

	Following discussion the Committee highlighted the need for a public engagement and education programme explaining the best ways to deal with rubbish and recycling and why change was necessary. The Committee agreed to work with waste operators to set up an incentive scheme that would strongly encourage people to separate out their greenwaste to ensure it was composted, either at home or commercially. The Committee considered that incentivising would encourage people not to put greenwaste and recyclables in with their general rubbish. The aspirational goal was zero waste and getting there was about building good habits by encouraging those who did not already recycle, while rewarding those who are already fully involved in diverting waste. The concensus from the Committee was not to provide a 240l wheelie bin for green garden waste and kitchen food scraps as from submissions received a lot of people were composting and others would not utilise it. Council needed to provide mandatory recycling containers, that were flexible in size, easy to transport, store and handle to ensure plastics, paper and glass were kept clean and maintained the integrity in terms of contamination. Staff to find a standardised receptacle that would ensure the resource value is protected and report back to the Committee The Committee also suggested consideration of recycling facilities being cited at supermarket carparks.
	Further Waste Management and Minimisation Plan initiatives included: · Engage closely with iwi to embed the principles of Kaitiakitanga throughout the waste plan · Forming one combined Napier and Hastings waste team · Working with commercial, industrial and retail businesses to encourage recycling · Consideration of a local waste levy to help pay for initiatives · Improve data collection and provide results to the public · Establishing a contestable fund to seed fund waste reducing initiatives · Supporting successful community-run waste reducing initiatives · Investigate methods for better dealing with problem products (eg demolition and construction materials) · Continue to lobby central Government on the need to manage waste from the source (eg packaging and tyres)
	The Committee also considered that the Draft Waste Management and Minimisation Plan be reviewed every five years to coincide with the Council’s Long Term Plan (LTP).
_________________________ The meeting adjourned for afternoon tea at 3.30pm reconvened at 3.45pm. _________________________
	The Committee considered the submission of the Medical Officer of Health in which two issues had been raised, being Medical Waste and Contaminated Soil and felt that these issues could be addressed through the Action Plan.
________________________ The meeting adjourned for afternoon tea at 3.30pm reconvened at 3.45pm. _______________________
	The Committee commented on the following: · There was no guarantees that waste operators would go out of business with the change . · Influence with number of contracts enabling to tender one or multi contracts. · Enable contractors to price one or more contracts. · More contracts tendered the lower the price could be. · Contractors may also sub-contract out. · Depending on size the resident will make a call whether or not to put the bin out for collection. · Standard for licensing already exists.
Councillor Heaps rejoined the meeting at 3.50pm.
	· Health and Safety directs away from plastic bag. · Investigate product that would fit that purpose. · Retain weekly collection and then change fortnightly once learned techniques to reduce waste. Two years to educate new system. · Anything was possible in a contract.
