Yes, we should be asking students to care for this area. It's probably just a few inconsiderate people who are ruining it for everyone else. I wouldn't favour banning parties but stronger enforcement would be good.

Good to see the work that has been done so far in making it easier for students to dispose of waste responsibly as well as increasing the accessibility of recycling in the quantities needed. Let's keep up the good work and continue to find further improvements.

Would be great if people party and clean up afterwards. Landlord should be made responsible. Street parties should be still allowed.

The expectation that young people just out of home have the skills to manage the complex arrangements for rubbish sorting (and get it right!) is unrealistic. DDC needs to develop practical (and doable) rubbish disposal options for residents of the student flats.

A worthy initiative this. Good for Health & Safety. Good for improvement in student behaviour.

Why there seems to be an exemption for trainee professionals who wish to litter profusely and throw glass in certain areas of Dunedin is beyond my understanding.
