I commend your efforts, but can I suggest a small change to your proposal? (I am still a bit of a novice on OSM, so please feel free to tell me I am totally wrong) Rather than "lcc:id=1849" should you not use, "id=lcc1849", or perhaps "ref=lcc1849", or even "ref:lcc=1849". I am not sure which (if any) would be most correct, but I feel that what you are trying to record is a type of reference or identity, not a type of lcc. I also note that Taginfo shows 91,800 uses of "id=*", but over 10.3 million uses of "ref=*", so "ref =nnn"would seem by far the most popular tag for a reference number. Also, I do not see the need to "hide" the comment as "lcc:comments="; why not just use "note=under city centre team management"? As I said, please feel free to tell me I am wrong; I am engaging here as part of my education in OSM.

We (ODI Leeds), however, will be relying on OSM data, as this is all part of a wider project we’re doing for LCC involving analysis on how much waste is collected from these bins and where the optimum location for additional litter bins and recycling points would be. So we’re keen for it to be accurate. I thought of just tagging the LCC ID as lcc:id as I assume it will be meaningless to anyone not from the council. Here’s the rest of the tags we planned to use with examples from the data we’re importing (obviously we can change these): amenity=waste_basket - waste_basket:model=”metal square twin” - condition=good/fair/poor - waste_basket:defects=loose - waste_basket:collection_days=mon/fri (or lcc:collection_days ?) - lcc:id=1849 - lcc:comments=”under city centre team management” What do you think?
