Minutes: 21.1 The
Chairman introduced the item and advised that the open forum was an
opportunity for comments and questions to be raised on items not
already on the agenda, and over which the County Council has
jurisdiction. The following issues were raised, and responses
made:
Caroline Instance asked “Given the push to increase recycling and the increase we have seen in fly typing in rural areas isn’t it a false economy to shut some waste management centres for two days at a time (i.e. Billingshurst). And as winter hours shorten to match light why not use the hours “saved” to open on the other wise closed days?” Gareth Rollings, Commissioning and Infrastructure responded “The hours currently available at the full network of household waste recycling sites have been done in a way that has allowed us to keep all 11 sites open to the public, although its inconvenient to have sites shut during days of the week and at 4pm we have managed to keep every site open Saturdays and Sundays and have not had to take steps to fully close any of the sites down. In some situations we have extended opening times using the savings made for example Westhampnett closes one day a week in the Winter which has allowed the Worthing site to open 6 days a week and not the original 5 days when the days and hours were changed in October 2016.
21.3 There were a further 2 questions asked at
the meeting:
- A Resident asked with the recent reduction to Highways in mind, what was going to happen with potholes as they are a danger to all road users.
