Policy 29: Waste and Recycling Facilities in New Developments

  • Development must provide separate waste and segregated recycling facilities within the boundary of the development which has easy access to collect the materials.
  • Major commercial development that is designed to be shared by a number of occupiers should provide a single facility for waste storage and also segregated recycling facilities for use by all occupiers of the development.
  • Major commercial development, in addition to providing adequate waste and recycling facilities, should also consider the provision of waste and recycling storage capacity in suitable locations for use by neighbouring small commercial units (provided it is within the boundaries of the City of Westminster).
  • Development which includes the provision or retailing of food and drink must provide sufficient space in which to store food waste and should encourage occupiers to use a food waste recycling service.
