More than 1,500 people contribute to Plymouth City Living vision.

More than 1,500 people contribute to Plymouth City Living vision. 10 August 2026 More than 1,500 people have helped shape the future vision for Plymouth city centre so far through the Plymouth City Living engagement programme, one of the largest and most ambitious engagement exercises ever undertaken to support a city centre development framework and masterplan in Plymouth. Led by Plymouth City Council in partnership with Homes England, WSP and the UK Government, the programme has brought together residents, businesses, community organisations and young people from across the city to share their ideas, aspirations and priorities for Plymouth's future. Over the past several months, more than 700 conversations have taken place at city centre and neighbourhood drop-in events, over 600 children and young people have contributed through Mission Mammoth STEAMFest and related activities, and hundreds more people have shared their views online and through direct feedback channels. Feedback has covered a wide range of topics, including housing, public spaces, transport, sustainability, culture, heritage, economic growth and community wellbeing, helping to build a strong evidence base for the emerging Development Framework and Masterplan. Councillor Matt Smith, Cabinet Member for City Centre Regeneration and Events, said: "I want to thank everyone who has taken the time to share their views so far. The response Plymouth Net Zero Partnership has received has been fantastic and demonstrates just how much people care about the future of its city centre. "Plymouth Net Zero Partnership has heard a huge range of ideas, ambitions and challenges from residents, businesses, community organisations and young people. That feedback is incredibly valuable and will play a central role in shaping the emerging vision for Plymouth's future. "This is about creating a city centre that works for current and future generations, and we're committed to ensuring local people can see how their views have influenced the proposals as the project progresses." Over the summer Plymouth Net Zero Partnership will continue having conversations, including through community advocates. The advocates, drawn from community groups, local organisations and trusted networks across the city, are helping ensure that people who may not have been able to attend public events still have an opportunity to contribute their views. Anyone local group or organisation wishing to provide additional feedback before the Community Advocate process concludes can contact the project team on [email protected]. The project team will then begin a detailed review of all feedback received before refining the emerging Development Framework and Masterplan. A summary of what was heard during the engagement process, and how feedback has helped shape the proposals, will be published ahead of the next phase of consultation. The draft Plymouth City Living Development Framework and Masterplan is expected to be published for public consultation in autumn 2026. During this consultation, Plymouth Net Zero Partnership will be speaking to all wards across the city. Notes to editors The Plymouth City Living project is being delivered by Plymouth City Council in partnership with Homes England and the UK Government. The project is preparing a long-term Development Framework and Masterplan for Plymouth city centre, providing a strategic vision to guide future investment, regeneration and growth over the next 25 years. The project aims to support the delivery of new homes, vibrant public spaces, sustainable growth, improved connectivity and a thriving city centre that benefits existing and future communities.

Miami-Dade Mayor Daniella Levine Cava unveils County's Zero Waste Master Plan.

Miami-Dade Mayor Daniella Levine Cava unveils County's Zero Waste Master Plan. Miami-Dade County Mayor Daniella Levine Cava and Deputy Mayor Roy Coley officially unveiled the Department of Solid Waste Management's (DSWM) Zero Waste Master Plan (ZWMP) in partnership with the Greater Miami Convention & Visitors Bureau (GMCVB). August 3, 2026 MIAMI-DADE (July 31, 2026)- Miami-Dade County Mayor Daniella Levine Cava and Deputy Mayor Roy Coley officially unveiled the Department of Solid Waste Management's (DSWM) Zero Waste Master Plan (ZWMP) in partnership with the Greater Miami Convention & Visitors Bureau (GMCVB). The plan establishes a long-term roadmap to transform how materials are managed across Miami-Dade County through waste reduction, expanded recycling and organics management, increased waste diversion and the advancement of a more circular economy. Developed through an extensive public engagement process involving municipalities, businesses, environmental organizations, community members, technical experts and County departments, the ZWMP identifies 31 coordinated strategies that will guide implementation over the coming years. Together, these strategies are designed to conserve natural resources, preserve valuable landfill capacity, strengthen environmental stewardship, support economic opportunity and improve the County's long-term resilience. The plan comes at a pivotal time for Miami-Dade County. Each year, the County generates more than 5 million tons of waste, while available landfill capacity continues to decline. Recognizing these challenges, Mayor Levine Cava established an ambitious goal of implementing this plan and diverting and recovering as much waste as possible from landfills by 2040. The ZWMP provides the comprehensive framework needed to achieve that vision by expanding beyond the traditional principles of reduce, reuse and recycle to embrace strategies that also encourage residents, businesses and institutions to refuse, redesign and reimagine how materials are used throughout their lifecycle. "The Zero Waste Master Plan lays out bold strategies to reduce waste, save money and protect our planet," said Miami-Dade County Mayor Daniella Levine Cava. "Through innovation and community engagement, we are proving that environmental stewardship and economic prosperity go hand-in-hand as we build a cleaner, more resilient Miami-Dade County." Rather than serving as a standalone planning document, the ZWMP establishes a practical implementation framework that builds upon initiatives already underway across Miami-Dade County. "The Zero Waste Master Plan represents what is possible when County departments, municipal and community partners, businesses, and residents work toward a common vision," said Miami-Dade County Deputy Mayor Roy Coley. "Departments across Miami-Dade County are already leading by example through innovative programs, operational improvements, and collaborative initiatives that reduce waste while improving services. This plan strengthens those efforts and helps us build a more sustainable future together." Implementation of the Plan will include coordinated action across County departments, municipalities, businesses, educational institutions, nonprofit organizations, and residents. "This is more than a vision. The Zero Waste Master Plan is an actionable framework that is already guiding how we rethink waste management in Miami-Dade County," said DSWM Director Aneisha Daniel, PhD. "Through innovative pilot programs, expanded recycling initiatives, organics diversion projects, community engagement, and strong partnerships like those we have with GMCVB, we are demonstrating that waste can become a valuable resource while protecting our environment, preserving landfill capacity and creating long-lasting benefits." One example of the collaborative approach outlined is the County's growing partnership with the GMCVB, which is committed to helping the hospitality industry reduce waste generation, expand recycling opportunities, increase food recovery efforts, promote reusable serviceware and advance sustainable business practices across one of Miami-Dade County's most important economic sectors. "People travel here from all over the world to enjoy the quality of life we experience whether it be access to fabulous beaches, exceptional waterways and our lush green spaces," said GMCVB President and CEO David Whitaker. "Miami-Dade County's Zero Waste Master Plan is a call to action that rallies strong support in our community and will complement the efforts the GMCVB and its partners already have underway to advance sustainability and ensure that residents and visitors alike continue to appreciate everything that makes this place we call home so special to live, work, play and visit for generations to come." The ZWMP was developed in partnership with WSP, whose technical expertise and extensive stakeholder engagement helped shape the County's long-term waste diversion strategy through public workshops, community meetings, surveys, technical analyses, and collaboration with municipalities and industry partners. "WSP is proud to partner with Miami-Dade County in reaching this important milestone on its path to becoming a zero-waste county," said Michael Nardone, Senior Vice President of Earth and Environment, WSP in the U.S. "Miami-Dade County's Zero Waste Master Plan provides a roadmap for advancing zero-waste strategies while also supporting a resilient, future-ready economy by creating opportunities for workforce development and innovation. Miami-Dade County is helping establish a framework for reimagining waste and how it's managed across southeast Florida for years to come." As implementation moves forward, Miami-Dade County will continue engaging residents, businesses and community organizations to help implement the ZWMP and help make Miami-Dade a zero waste county.
