Solid Waste Strategic Plan Survey

ABOUT THE PROJECT

As Leduc County grows and changes, the way we manage solid waste and recycling may need to change as well. Leduc County recently gathered input from residents on the solid waste and recycling services Leduc County currently provides via a survey. More than 600 residents provided feedback on solid waste management in Leduc County. They shared their thoughts on areas that are working well, areas that could be improved and suggestions for future services, including waste diversion targets.

Project background

Leduc County is completing a solid waste strategic plan to identify service levels and waste management priorities. In early 2020, council directed administration to learn more about what residents thought of Leduc County’s current programs and services and what their priorities were regarding waste reduction and waste diversion.

To learn more and gather resident feedback, a survey was launched in summer 2020. It ran from July 17 to Sept. 15. 

 Online survey feedback

The online survey received responses from 608 residents across Leduc County. Respondents provided feedback on the following themes:

  • amount of garbage and recycling generated each week
  • primary method for disposing of household waste and recyclables
  • frequency of waste and recycling disposal
  • most-used waste and recycling disposal facility
  • agricultural waste and recycling
  • transfer station usage, hours of operation and locations
  • curbside recycling and waste pick up
  • private haulers
  • waste diversion and reduction

In-person feedback
Solid waste and recycling disposal affects everyone, and it was important to give Leduc County residents the opportunity to share their thoughts on current services. A variety of methods were used to communicate the survey to our residents, including Facebook advertisements, newspaper advertisements, signs at Leduc County transfer stations and direct-mailed letters. Due to COVID-19, in-person activities for information sharing were not considered at the time of the survey, but may be considered in the future if further public participation is required.


WHAT WE HEARD

We received feedback from 608 Leduc County residents. The survey included both demographic questions to gather information on who was providing input and service-based questions to gather information on areas related to solid waste management in Leduc County. Thank you to everyone who participated in the survey - your feedback is appreciated!

STRATEGIC WASTE MANAGEMENT PLAN

The survey results were shared with Leduc County Council on Oct. 27, 2020 at a workshop. Afterwards, a series of 11 workshops took place with Council to help develop the Strategic Waste Management Plan. Administration incorporated applicable survey results into each workshop topic.

On Feb. 8, 2022, Council approved the Strategic Waste Management Plan.
