Leeds City Council is leading the way in how we manage our natural resources and waste in Leeds.
The NRWDPD forms one part of the new LDF. It will explain the key issues affecting Leeds’ natural resources and waste. It will provide guidance on matters relevant to the whole of Leeds for the future management of existing resources. The document will include detailed policies about the effects of climate change, lowering carbon emissions, managing water resources, waste management and recycling, all of which are important issues for Leeds residents.
