Description

To keep the environment where we live cleaner and more attractive and have a place where citizens can relax, the following are being proposed:
- Continuation of the program to have more open spaces for recreation
- Installation of safer playing fields and continuous monitoring of such sites, including CCTV cameras for the safety of such sites.
- Installation of more bring-in sites for at source segregation of recyclables; the introduction of door-to-door collection of dry recyclables and the establishment of civic amenity sites for the separate collection of bulky household waste and household hazardous wastes
- Establishment of modern facilities for the management of wastes including a materials recovery facility for the further sorting of recyclables and a mechanical biological treatment plant aimed at the treatment of the organic fraction of municipal solid waste to generate biogas to be utilized for energy generation and compost
