In a Monday Study Session, the City Council discussed two policy proposals designed to improve sustainability by reducing foodware waste and conserving groundwater.
The first ordinance would ban all food service providers in the city from using plates, cups and utensils made of non-recyclable or compostable materials like Styrofoam and certain types of plastic. The second ordinance would create new guidelines for single-family households to reuse their groundwater for beneficial purposes such as irrigation.
