Leasing car spaces for recycling initiative

Listen

Do you think we should lease 5 car parks in Dorset Square for a Container Deposit Machine? Have your say by 5 December.

VISY is proposing a Container Deposit Machine on Council land in Dorset Square carpark, and requested a lease from Council We want to understand your thoughts on the proposed lease, which involves changing the usage of 5 car parks. Your feedback will guide our decision on the proposal.

VISY has identified Dorset Square Park as a suitable location for the machine, shown in map below.

The Dorset Square carpark is highly used, and during peak times such as Christmas, it is used at maximum capacity. 

Having a Container Deposit Machine in Dorset Square might encourage more people to visit the area and support local businesses, however there will be 5 less car parks for visitors. In addition, a collection truck will routinely visit the site to empty the machine which may cause some minor disruptions.

This is your opportunity to share your thoughts on the proposed lease for the machine, reduction of 5 car spaces, and whether the machine will encourage you to visit the centre. 

The reverse vending machine is a State Government initiative designed to increase recycling by giving 10-cent refunds for containers. 

Visit our Have your say website for more information.

As you are interested in Boronia, you might also be interested to know construction will start soon for the Chandler Road shared path and road renewal. Help us plan implementation to reduce interruptions so you can get on with business as usual. Visit the Chandler Road Shared Path Have your say webpage.
