City council passes motion for solid waste management plan

The Georgetown city council on Monday passed a motion for the development of a comprehensive solid waste management plan.

The motion, which called for “a strategic framework and comprehensive plan towards a holistic approach” to Georgetown’s solid waste management,” was moved by Councillor Sherod Duncan.

It stated that a modern policy for solid waste management is important since there have been several setbacks, including the most recent suspension of services by private garbage contractors Cevons Waste Management Inc and Puran Brothers Disposal Inc.
