Residents, community groups, land managers, businesses and organisations are being invited to share their views on biodiversity as part of engagement on Dumfries and Galloway’s draft Local Biodiversity Action Plan (LBAP).
Councillors are to consider the findings of a detailed review of Household Waste Recycling Centres (HWRCs) across Dumfries and Galloway, looking at how the service can be adapted and potentially restructured to meet future needs.
Applications are now open for Dumfries and Galloway Council’s 2026 Garden Waste Collection Service. Sign up by 31 January to enjoy convenient fortnightly kerbside collections from March to November for just £40 per bin permit – helping you keep your garden tidy and reduce trips to the recycling centre.
Councillors on the council’s Economy and Infrastructure Committee will receive a comprehensive update on the implementation of its Waste, Recycling and Reuse Strategy 2023–2030 at a meeting on 4 November. The report outlines significant progress across key service areas while preparing for major legislative changes in the waste sector.
