[The] Council also agreed Tuesday to a series of packaging-reduction bylaws.
They include:
- A five-cent charge for every plastic bag customers use from a grocery or retail store starting in June;
- A ban on biodegradable and compostable plastic bags.
- A ban on retail bags with rope handles or metal grommets by the end of next year.
- A request the retailers also provide shoppers with alternatives to having the pay for a plastic bag, whether by providing cardboard boxes or paper sacks for shoppers.
Talk about micro-management. Who knows what kind of long-term repercussions there will be in the retail industry.
