BAGS, BLUE BINS AND GLASS BINS? Broomhill
Library sells environmentally friendly
(biodegradable) green plastic bags for garden
waste, at £1.50 for three bags.
This includes the cost of collection when the bags
are full. Any garden waste No soil or
stones. Collection is arranged by ringing 273
4567. As for Blue bins BANG committee
member Anne Ashe was stopped by some market
researchers in Broomhill and one of them said they
had done research for Onyx in various parts of
Sheffield about the colour of the paper bins - and
the results led to the blue ones! She
said they had asked what colour people wanted, from
a list of possibles, but they had not shown samples
of the actual shade... And there's more
to come. If there are going to be bins
for glass what colour will they be? BANG will have
to make sure that any future market research on
colour does in fact have a sample of the stuff and
not just the name of a colour. Dec
1999 Broomhill
Committee Meeting 2 December 1999 Local litter:
the local litter situation was discussed. A member
had conducted a personal survey and apart from
giant cleansing machines being deployed around
midnight and after (this has now been discontinued)
- the litter situation had greatly improved,
although the promised new bins are still awaited.
BANG would write to Cleansing Services to offer
congratulations. |
