In person meetings

Four meetings were held with the businesses directly impacted by the proposed changes related to the bin relocations.

Generally, all businesses had positive feedback about the proposed changes.

Three matters were raised regarding the design and the bin relocations.

  • Reconsider the proposed bin location (adjacent to IGA) this is not large enough space to house all the bins.
