Utheemu Council Calls for End to Waste Burning, Urges Use of Village Dustbin

The Utheemu Council has issued an appeal urging residents to stop burning waste in the village and instead dispose of it properly in the designated dustbin. In a recent announcement, the council reiterated that waste must be disposed of according to established procedures, requiring it to be taken to the village's dustbin. The council noted that burning waste has been previously prohibited, yet it has observed that waste is still being burned in various areas of the village. The council has received repeated complaints about this ongoing practice, highlighting that burning waste causes undesirable effects on the public. Residents living in or near areas where waste is burned face significant difficulties as a result. To ensure the convenience of all residents, the Utheemu Council has repeatedly appealed for an end to setting fires for waste burning and for everyone to bring their waste to the dustbin for disposal.
