Victories in Public Health

Hygiene & waste kept for a fortnight is a ridiculous proposition. We have too much waste for a single bin being held over for 2 weeks, due to an health issue. Again not properly considered by the Baw Baw Shire council.
They need to support the proposed waste to energy plant for the Latrobe Valley, employment & other benefits with no land fill at all....

Stop making decisions without community input. Why change what was working. Is this a money thing!
Cheryl supported: Reinstate weekly general waste collections in Baw Baw Shire
Environmental sustainability is a worthy goal, but it should be achieved through modest consumption, better recycling, education and investment, not by cutting essential services! A strong society improves the basics, it doesn't erode them; when councils reduce these services while residents continue paying the same or higher rates, they're effectively asking the community to accept less while expecting more. Never accept compromise for your basic right.

Missed the bin collection now stuffed bin will have to sit for another 2 weeks. Or u go away and the bins can’t go out they forced to sit there for another 2 weeks don’t work. Dog poo smells out the bin for 2 weeks
Meagan supported: Reinstate weekly general waste collections in Baw Baw Shire
We are not happy with the fortnightly collection. We already struggling with thd first collection. No one discuss that decision with us .
Athraa supported: Reinstate weekly general waste collections in Baw Baw Shire
Once a fortnight is simply not enough. I have 2 adult children who have children and their bin was always overfill when the pick up was weekly. An absolute disgrace that the council wants them to now have overflowing unsanitary bins for 2 weeks. I don’t know about everyone else but my bin would be lucky to have 1 fogo bag a week. Absolutely ridiculous.

Mayor Kate Wilson is a classic 'champagne socialist'.
She champions the FOGO system that forces families to accept fortnightly red bins, while the real daily burden, overflowing bins, stored hazardous waste and constant inconvenience falls hardest on those who don’t qualify for the SCP. Easy to call it progress when you don’t feel the cost yourself!
X supported: Reinstate weekly general waste collections in Baw Baw Shire
Our Lord sees the load they have laid on ordinary backs.
He hears the quiet anger of those who pay the rates yet are treated as if their waste is a moral failure.
He knows the difference between stewardship of the earth and the soft tyranny that makes the weak suffer for the sake of a neat policy.
