Kapiti adopts regional plan for reducing waste

Kāpiti Coast District Council has adopted a plan to reduce waste in our district and the Wellington region over the next six years. 

Adopted in December 2023 the Wellington Region Waste Management and Minimisation Plan 2023-2029 (WMMP) sets out a pathway for everyone in the region to work together to care for our resources, and create less waste and become a greater place to call home. 

Under the regional plan, each council has its own local action plan. Kāpiti Coast District Council’s local action plan outlines 17 actions. The focus is on moving away from simply managing waste to reducing, recycling, reusing, repairing, and repurposing materials.
