Living in the beautiful region of the shire of  Mundaring, we all take pride in maintaining our homes and surroundings. However, the current waste management schedule is leaving many of us in a challenging situation. Our red lid bins, designated for general waste, are not being emptied frequently enough by the Shire of Mundaring. This inadequate service forces us to grapple with unpleasant and unsanitary conditions.

Overfilled waste bins lead to the proliferation of maggots and attract rodents, compounding our sanitation issues. This not only affects the cleanliness of our local environment but also poses a health risk to our families. Beyond that, the overflow of refuse creates an unsightly appearance, detracting from the overall charm of our community. It is imperative that our local council re-evaluates their waste management schedule to ensure that our general waste bins are emptied on a weekly basis.

The Shire of Mundaring has a duty to ensure that our community remains a healthy and welcoming place for all its residents. By increasing the frequency of general waste collection, we can combat these issues effectively. This simple adjustment can prevent the health risks associated with waste build-up.

Other councils in nearby areas have introduced weekly general waste collections and have seen significant improvements in their hygiene standards. Evidence from these localities suggests a reduction in complaints regarding waste overflow and pest infestations. Implementing a similar plan in Mundaring would not only benefit current residents but also align our community standards with those of nearby districts.

We urge the Shire of Mundaring to adopt a weekly red lid bin collection schedule. It's a realistic and necessary change that addresses the growing concerns of health and cleanliness in our area. We believe our council values our input and has the resources to make this happen.

Please sign this petition to show our council that maintaining the beauty and cleanliness of Mundaring is important to its residents. Together, we can work towards a cleaner, safer, and healthier community.
