The following bullets should be added into the Operation Stage checklist.
Appropriate community waste management facilities should be integrated into new development. These should enable:
. separation and storage of waste material within buildings
. collection of waste materials from buildings comprehensive and accessible community
facilities for the storage and separation of materials to be recycled.
Developments should aspire where possible to install integrated community waste collection systems. These offer benefits to the environment and local community. However they need to be fully integrated into and inform built development proposals, in order to operate effectively. The cost and benefits of such systems should be fully considered when developing proposals for developments.
