    "I know, I'll get the internet to do it for me!"

    Zs tend to equal Ss in words like 'organisation'.
    We don't use 'municipal' - we have local and county councils, depending upon context (afraid you're going to have to work out which yourself).
    ton = tonne (, right?).
    'Dumpster' = recycling bins. Aye, it's just 'bins' these days, but as a copywriter, you should probably be sheparding expectation indirectly too.
    City of Brighton = Brighton.

    The overall tone is unmistakably American, I'm afraid,and I'm not about to sit here and do your own work for you by re-writing it all for you. You might want to reign in the overwrought sense of paradigmatic-phase changing incentivised action plan meeting schemas and such - we're a little more dishevelled and Harris Tweed for that kind of over-earnest twattery.

    Also, It's really dry, eh?

    • ah,most points already covered by comicsans, I see. Ho hum.detritus
    • I prefer your wording, "over-earnest twattery"?, no , some of them just talk like that.comicsans
