Policy Address

Community Green Station Network

165.         Early last year, the ENB announced the development of five pilot community green stations.  These stations will be operated by non-profit-making organisations to enhance environmental education and help collect different types of recyclables in the local community, with a view to promoting green living at the community level.  To implement the “reduction first” waste management strategy, the Government plans to develop one green station in each of the 18 districts and provide funding for their operation.  The capital works will cost about $400 million.  Planning is already underway and the first community green station is expected to be completed by mid-2014.

Restored Landfill Revitalisation Funding Scheme

166.         As restored landfills are not suitable for large-scale construction or industrial use, some have been developed into community or recreational facilities.  There remains about 18 hectares of restored sites available for similar use.  To expedite development and make better use of these sites, the Government has earmarked $1 billion to launch a Restored Landfill Revitalisation Funding Scheme.  Non-profit-making organisations, national sports associations and other groups can apply for funding under the scheme to develop recreational, environmental or other community facilities on these sites.
