The D’Arcy/ Devine & Birkenhead Lake Refuse Disposal Services provides solid waste collection and disposal for residents and businesses in Devine, D’Arcy, Anderson Lake, and Birkenhead Lake. The Devine Transfer Station accepts household waste, recyclables, scrap metal, and operates the reuse shed.
The SLRD is proposing changes to how the refuse disposal service is funded for the communities of D’Arcy/ Devine and Birkenhead Lake Estates (Electoral Area C). The current funding limits are no longer sufficient to sustain the service. Updates to the service establishment bylaws are needed to ensure long-term viability, fairness, and financial sustainability.
We’re seeking your input through the following community survey to gather feedback on the proposed changes. Your feedback will help shape the proposed bylaw amendments before they are brought forward for consideration through the Alternative Approval Process (AAP).
The AAP is a formal method of public consent that allows eligible electors to indicate opposition to a proposed initiative.
