This section outlines the assumptions we have used as a basis for Barnet Council’s Municipal Recycling & Waste Strategy and the various evidence collated that supports them BE1 - By 2030 over 36 per cent of households will be in blocks of flats. Planners and managing agents have a role to play in supporting waste services. Different approaches need to be taken for existing flats which should make a contribution to the recycling rate via fixed limits to different types of waste that can be presented and new flats which should be designed to deliver a 70 per cent recycling rate Return to Assumptions & Evidence Return to consultation page
