City of Stirling Corporate Business Plan

Objective: Support a low-waste, circular economy that protects our environment from the impacts of waste

A waste-wise City

The City aims to support a circular economy which reduces consumption and recaptures waste to be reused or recycled. To achieve this, we will provide a comprehensive waste management and recycling service to our community to reduce the impact of waste on our environment. We will also reduce waste generated through our own operations and engage and educate our community to reduce, reuse and recycle.

Strategy: How will we get there? • Increase the City’s use of recycled and recyclable materials and encourage greater use in the community • Reduce the City’s waste generation and support the community to generate less waste

• Improve resource recovery for all waste streams across the City • Support, engage and guide our community to reduce waste generation and divert waste from landfill.
