ARGYLL AND BUTE COUNCIL ENVIRONMENT, DEVELOPMENT AND INFRASTRUCTURE COMMITTEE ROAD AND INFRASTRUCTURE SERVICES 20 JUNE 2024 SECOND DOMESTIC BIN REVIEW 2024 1.0 INTRODUCTION 1.1 In 2016, the Council approved a policy to move to three weekly general waste (green bin) and fortnightly recycling (blue bin) collections. This policy change was introduced to encourage more recycling which would bring significant environmental benefits and also to reduce the amount of general waste taken to landfill. Landfill has both an environmental and financial implication, currently landfill tax costs the Council in excess of £3m per annum. 1.2 With the Biodegradable Municipal Landfill Ban (BMW) coming into place in January 2026, the advancement in technology and the Council introducing route optimisation, now is considered to be a good time to consider a review of all second domestic bins to all householders in all areas of Argyll and Bute’s waste collection service. 1.3 A review will provide an opportunity to reduce the number of households receiving a second domestic waste bin collection, who are not entitled to receive this service. Alongside the review, information will also be provided that gives advice on how to produce less green bin waste by recycling more and remind customers that they are entitled to an additional blue bin (for co- mingled recyclable materials excluding glass), free of charge should they require it. 1.4 This report provides an update to the report considered by the Environment, Development and Infrastructure Committee in March 2024 which can be viewed here at item 9: Agenda for Environment, Development and Infrastructure Committee on Thursday, 21 March 2024, 10:30 am - Argyll and Bute Council (argyll-bute.gov.uk) 2.0 RECOMMENDATIONS 2.1 It is recommended that members of the Environment, Development and Infrastructure Committee: i. endorse the second domestic bin review and; ii. note the progress made regarding the publicity and the timeframe and Page 3 Agenda Item 7
Page 4
that further updates will be provided as the review progresses. 3.0 DETAIL 3.1 In June 2016, the Council considered a report proposing an operational service procedure and which provided operational detail to support the Policy that the Council agreed at its meeting on 11 February 2016 as part of Service Choices. The full report can be viewed here: ARGYLL & BUTE COUNCIL (argyll-bute.gov.uk) and the service procedure is appended to this report at Appendix 1. 3.2 Disposal of general waste has both environmental and cost implications. Whilst the existing PPP contract for part of Argyll and Bute processes material via a Mechanical Biological Treatment plant (which takes out of the waste stream some materials which can be recycled or composted), this process is expensive and is not an approved treatment type beyond the BMW Ban. As such we don’t encourage the use of second green bins because our focus is on recycling, however, we understand that, for some people, a second general waste bin may be needed. We will consider a second green bin if: • There are five or more people in a household • Someone in a household has a medical condition which means more waste is generated 3.3 There appears to have been some confusion as to whether households with babies in nappies are eligible for a second bin. The criteria noted in the paragraph above is what we work too and therefore a second green bin is not provided for households with babies in nappies. 3.4 Second blue bins (for co-mingled recyclable materials excluding glass) are available free to all households who are producing more recycling material than will fit in a single bin. The co-mingled recyclable material is taken to be processed and reused – this both reduces the amount of virgin materials which are required and also reduces the amount of material taken to landfill, both of which have environmental and financial benefits. 3.5 Prior to the roll out of the review, there will be a social media campaign and additional information added to the Council’s website explaining that the review of second domestic bins is being progressed with the main aim of reducing the amount of general waste, encouraging more recycling and as a result making both environmental and financial savings. 3.6 A study carried out by the Operations team has highlighted that there are approximately 3,382 additional domestic bins across all areas, this amounts to an additional 57,494 uplifts of domestic waste per annum. The information on the reasons for second bins held in our system only goes back to 2021 and it notes that there was 146 bins made available to families of 5 or more, 406 bins made available due to medical conditions and 513 bins provided for Page 4
Page 5
children in nappies (which as noted above, is not one of the core criteria). We will make contact with all of these households, to check the information remains current and in the case of children in nappies, advise that a second bin will not be uplifted. 3.7 Given that the Council collect bins from over 48,000 households, the process of no longer collecting non-eligible second bins will be challenging, however, when the routine optimisation system is functioning, it will be easier to identify locations where second bins are eligible. Where second bins are present, but not eligible, residents will be notified and the second bins will not be collected. 3.8 The service has been working closely with colleagues in the Council’s Customer Engagement and Transformational Team to create a new function that will allow automatic reviews for the need for a second domestic waste bin to take place. Automated templates have been created which will record information including customer responses and reasons for additional bin. 3.9 Phase 1 of the review will commence on 1 July 2024, this will be a small batch of 50 to 60 households, this will allow us to gauge the number and type of enquiries received and identify any issues raised. Further phases will proceed on 1 August, 1 September and 1 October. Review Timeline Stage Completion Date Ongoing liaison with Customer Services via a workshop session regarding possibilities and to also understand current levels of demand Commenced and ongoing Updating of records for all approved second green bins, where possible due diligence on ongoing eligibility for second green bins Commenced and ongoing Publicity and timeframe for roll out to be prepared June EDI Committee Publicity campaign advising of any agreed output from EDI Committee To commence following EDI Committee June 2024 Checking and verifying of second green bins and where second bins are not eligible July 2024 onwards Notification batches go out with a two week completion / return date. With a minimum of 5 batches to be sent July – October we have to allow for the applications to be returned and verified. Page 5

Review to be completed by end of 2024. Rollout of notification for any non-approved second green bins and actively managing this through the deployment of warden resource. Estimated start January 2025 Completion date to be confirmed pending no. of unauthorised second green bins to be dealt with. 3.10 Zero Waste Scotland, on behalf of Argyll and Bute Council, have recently carried out a waste composition analysis on Islay and in Oban. The draft report from this is currently being considered and will be shared with Members in due course. The purpose of the composition analysis is to provide an understanding of the typical waste that is being disposed of in residential bins. This intelligence can then be used in marketing and publicity campaigns to further reduce the amount of general waste and increase recycling levels. Composition analysis also provides information which would be required by SEPA to confirm whether or not the general waste collected in Argyll and Bute can be processed in Energy from Waste (EfW) plants without any pre- treatment requirement. In addition, we are in the process of procuring specialist Artificial Intelligence (AI) cameras which will be trialed on a small number of refuse collection vehicles. These cameras will record information and will provide further intelligence of the composition of our waste stream. 4.0 CONCLUSION 4.1 This report proposes that a review of second bins is carried out and in line with the Policy agreed in June 2016. All eligible second green bins must be identified and non-eligible second domestic bins will cease to be collected. This will help to reduce the amount of domestic waste presented at kerbside, encourage residents to increase recycling and reduce the amount of material which is currently processed for landfill. 4.2 Further updates on the review will be presented to future meetings of the Environment, Development and Infrastructure Committee. 5.0 IMPLICATIONS 5.1 Policy – As per the Policy agreed in June 2016 at the introduction of 3 weekly waste collections. 5.2 Financial – It is expected that there will be future waste collection and disposal savings as a result of this exercise. 5.3 Legal – None known. 5.4 HR – None known. 5.5 Fairer Scotland Duty: None known. 5.5.1 Equalities - protected characteristics – None known. 5.5.2 Socio-economic Duty: None known. Page 6
Page 7
5.5.3 Islands – None known. 5.6 Climate Change – Reducing waste currently processed for landfill and increasing recycling. There should also be a slight reduction in fuel used for vehicles used in the waste collection and disposal process. 5.7 Risk – Representation from individuals who may lose a second bin service 5.8 Customer Service – Residents may have become dependent on their second general waste bin. Detailed communications will need to be carried out to keep citizens involved with this proposal and the reasons it is being progressed. 5.9 The Rights of the Child (UNCRC) – refuse collection and recycling can have environmental benefits and contribute to the positive future of young people.

ARGYLL AND BUTE COUNCIL ENVIRONMENT, DEVELOPMENT AND INFRASTRUCTURE COMMITTEE ROADS AND INFRASTRUCTURE 20 JUNE 2024 SERVICES ROADS CAPITAL RECONSTRUCTION PROGRAMME 2024/25 – UPDATE REPORT 1.0 INTRODUCTION 1.1 In March 2024, the EDI Committee endorsed a report providing details of the proposed roads reconstruction programme for 2024-25. The programme was based on the 2024-25 allocation of a total of £8.0M. 1.2 This report provides an update on changes to the programme to be endorsed by Members. The programme remains based on the 2024-25 allocation. 2.0 RECOMMENDATION 2.1 It is recommended that the Environment, Development and Infrastructure Committee: • Endorses the amended programme of capital works for 2024-25 • Agrees that details of each area committee’s programme will be forwarded on to individual Elected Members. 3.0 DETAIL 3.1 It has come to my attention that the roads reconstruction programme presented to Members in March 2024 was based on a desktop exercise using various sources of data as well as having input from Members as part of the Area Committee business days held last year. Whilst the desktop exercise provides a good starting basis for developing the final programme, it doesn’t reflect detailed local course visual inspections and as noted in the March report, would not reflect any winter deterioration experienced on the road network. 3.2 The local course visual inspections and measurements were carried out later than normal mainly due to resourcing issues as a result of the response to the large- scale flood and road closure incidents experienced last year from October 2023 and the knock-on effect this has had on workloads, in addition to sickness absence of some key individuals involved in the process. Page 9 Agenda Item 8
Page 10
3.3 The local course visual inspections and measurements now carried out by officers have identified, in some areas, where the original programme reported in March, should be amended. All schemes costings have been updated now that measurements have been carried out. There are new schemes added into the programme and schemes that have now become unaffordable that have had to be de-prioritised; it should be noted that schemes raised by Members at the Area Business Days have remained in the programme. Details of the new schemes and those that are no longer affordable are noted in Appendix 1 and are summarised below. The full revised programme is included in Appendix 2. MAKI A total of 31 Schemes were presented to the EDI Committee totaling £2.48M The updated report presents a total of 31 Schemes with the same budget of £2.48M. However there have been changes to some scheme costings and: • 2 schemes added in Mid Argyll and 2 schemes rescheduled. • 1 scheme added on Kintyre with 3 rescheduled. • 2 schemes added on the islands and 1 scheme rescheduled. Members are asked to note: a. There is an estimated outturn over budget allowance of £33,395.21, for Mid Argyll, this was because of the urgent need to include the C43 Crinan Canal works where the Council are responsible for maintaining the surface over Loch 4. Failure to carry out this work may well lead to a malfunction in the bridge mechanical system which would cause issues for Scottish Canals which we would potentially be liable for. b. There is an estimated outturn over budget allowance of £27,103.49 for Kintyre, this is preparation work for the 2025-26 Surface Dressing works. c. There is an estimated outturn under budget allowance of £8,895.48 for the island work. Should this remain, the budget will roll into next years island works. If the costs remain in excess of the relevant area budget, we will draw down from next year’s capital budget as has been done in previous years. B&C A total of 20 schemes were presented to the March EDI Committee totaling £1.6M. The updated report presents a total of 21 Schemes with the same budget of £1.6M. However there have been changes to some scheme costing and: • 1 Scheme added in Cowal with 3 schemes rescheduled. Page 10
Page 11
• 4 Schemes added in Bute with 1 scheme rescheduled. Members are asked to note: a. There is an estimated outturn under budget allowance of £9,406.04 and £9,406.64 respectively for Bute and Cowal, if the costs remain unspent this will roll over into next years Bute and Cowal Budget. OLI There have been no schemes added or removed in OLI, however some schemes have been re-costed to deliver best value. The budget remains the same at £2.8M. Members are asked to note: a. There is an estimated outturn over budget allowance of £18,089.23, Oban and Lorn, this was due to more accurate estimates when officers carried out course visual inspections. b. There is an estimated outturn under budget allowance of £7,285.27 for the Isles, this was due to more accurate estimates when officers carried out course visual inspections. If the costs remain in excess of the relevant area budget, we will draw down from next year’s capital budget as has been done in previous years. If costs remain under budget these will be rolled onto next years budget as has been done in previous years. H&L There has been 1 scheme added due to available budget after re costings in Helensburgh and Lomond, and some schemes have been re-costed to deliver best value. The budget remains the same at £1.12M. Members are asked to note: a. There is an estimated outturn under budget allowance of £1,842.17 for Helensburgh and Lomond, if the costs remain unspent this will roll over into next years Bute and Cowal Budget. 3.4 It should be noted that any amendments seek to deliver better value for money, this being the approach over the last decade where we have carefully applied a strategy of delivering revenue and capital funding collectively and delivering a series of works designed to minimise reactive work, carry out right first-time repairs wherever possible and to deliver surfacing techniques and specifications which maximises the amount of repairs and resurfacing which is Page 11
Page 12
delivered. Members will be aware that the investment that the Council has made over a number of years and the approach to allocating the funds has had a positive impact on the Council’s overall Roads Condition Index. 3.5 The roads reconstruction programme will continue to be delivered by a mixed economy model with the Councils in-house team delivering carriageway reconstruction and patching works. The surface dressing element of the programme will be delivered by an external contractor. This enables the maximum surface area to be covered which will help to seal carriageway cracks, prevent the ingress of water and reduce the amount of reactive maintenance for potholes. 3.6 In 2023-24 there was also a grant from the Strategic Timber Transport Scheme (STTS) totaling £387k. This grant was significantly less than in previous years and officers expected this to continue in the current frugal economic climate. Officers have now been informed that our bids for 2024-25 funding have been rejected and no funding will be available through STTS for this financial year. This is a similar position being experienced by other Councils across Scotland. 3.7 The programme for each of the administrative areas will be forwarded to Area Committee Members if endorsed by the Committee today. The programme will also be available on the council website with key scheme status and dates. 4.0 CONCLUSION 4.1 This report provides an update on changes to the roads reconstruction programme to be endorsed by Members. 5.0 IMPLICATIONS 5.1 Policy - works assessed and carried out under the current Roads Asset Management Plan. 5.2 Financial - programme will be based on capital allocation for year 2024-25. 5.3 Legal – None known. 5.4 HR - reconstruction works delivered by a combination of in-house roads operations team and sub-contractors. 5.5 Fairer Scotland Duty: None known. 5.5.1 Equalities - protected characteristics – None known. 5.5.2 Socio-economic Duty – None known. 5.5.3 Islands – None known. 5.6 Climate Change – due regard will be given to climate change with a view to minimising any climate change impact and these will be considered as and Page 12
Page 13
when they arise. 5.7 Risk - completed works will reduce requirement to repair roads and will arrest the carriageway/footway deterioration. 5.8 Customer Service - overall improvement in road surfaces and the quality of driven journeys. 5.9 The Rights of the Child (UNCRC) – the investment to improve our road network will contribute to a safer environment for young people to thrive in.
