Minutes:

Environment theme - How Green is Southwark how Green am I

DCC received presentations from Southwark Officers and representatives of SNUB (say no to unwanted bags), Aardvark Recycling, Veolia Environmental Services and Dulwich going Greener.

 

DCC agreed to:

1.  Re-visit the historic agreement between Lambeth and   Southwark concerning Dulwich residents who live on the   border which entitles them to use recycling facilities on the Lambeth side.

 

2.  Improve publicity on what Aardvark Recycling (food waste/composting) actually does in the area and encourage   businesses within and outside East Dulwich – e.g. Herne Hill   businesses to continue or join up after the 3 month pilot   scheme ends.  DCC also agreed to re-visit this at a future date.

 

3.   Note the car club locations identified in Dulwich area which will   be implemented by the end of January 2010.
