The Fraser Coast Waste Strategy 2019-2029 was adopted in July 2019 as a practical roadmap to reduce waste going to landfill and transition to a more circular economy by recovering and recycling more.

It is now due for its first comprehensive review, and the Council is inviting the community to have a say on the current strategy to help us assess whether the 10-year plan remains aligned with Council priorities, community needs, and the latest state and national waste strategies.

Council’s community engagement will run from mid-January to mid-February 25.

There are six fact sheets available including Waste Strategy Factsheet 5 – K’Gari Waste Management which is specific to K’gari’s current waste management. Information displays will be at the Urangan Pier Markets on Saturday 8 and 15 February from 8am to 12pm.

Fraser Coast residents are being invited to have their say on the future of waste management to support a growing community, protect the environment and create economic opportunities with an online survey for your feedback. Article adapted from Fraser Coast Regional Council’s website
