I support the proposal by councillor Glenn Taylor and supported by councillors Whitton and Duffy for Orange City Council to take over the operation of the garbage, green waste and recycling collection and processing, as these activities create valuable employment at a time when Orange is in need of jobs, especially considering the pending closure of Electrolux. It would also secure additional employment for our area into the future.
I believe that Orange should have the necessary expertise to take over and successfully operate this service.
After all, if Bathurst can operate their own successful garbage service then Orange should be able to do so, provided of course that it can manage it better than it does our roads that need I mention are pretty bad.
Perhaps Wangarang Industries would be able to take on some of the operations.
