6.8 Commercial and Industrial Waste Managementa) Strategic ObjectivesTo streamline and promote more sustainable waste management services <strong>to</strong> businesseswithin <strong>the</strong> Local Government Area.b) Current PracticesPresently, <strong>Council</strong> does not provide waste and resource recovery services <strong>to</strong> businesseswithin <strong>Liverpool</strong>. Such services are currently negotiated directly between <strong>the</strong> businesses andprivate waste service providers. This has resulted in businesses within <strong>Liverpool</strong> beingserviced by a high number of competing waste service providers, with each businesstypically provided with a bin or skip. This situation has led <strong>to</strong> bin congestion, odour problemsand traffic congestion in some areas, particularly in service ways located behind “strip”shopping areas in <strong>Liverpool</strong> CBD.If a more coordinated waste and recycling service were provided <strong>to</strong> business (particularlywithin <strong>the</strong> <strong>Liverpool</strong> CBD), including <strong>the</strong> establishment of shared waste and recyclingfacilities between businesses in dedicated bays, considerable amenity improvements may beachievable. In addition, <strong>the</strong> associated space savings could be utilised for short-termcus<strong>to</strong>mer parking and/or loading/unloading activities for <strong>the</strong> businesses concerned.c) Information SourcesResource <strong>NSW</strong> (Undated), Local Government commercial recycling discussion paper<strong>Liverpool</strong> <strong>City</strong> <strong>Council</strong>73Waste Avoidance and Resource Recovery <strong>Strategy</strong>
