Proposed California State Legislation (SB270) would prohibit food stores and certain retail establishments (see attachment for descriptions) from providing single-use carryout plastic bags. As you are aware, many of our neighboring communities have already passed similar legislation. The Danville Town Council is considering a local ordinance that would coincide with the proposed state legislation to extend the ban to all retailers and public eating establishments not covered by SB270. The proposed ordinance would go in to effect in 2016. There is 1 Information Sessions left for merchants, residents and shoppers. PLEASE consider attending one of these important sessions. The Council WANTS to hear from you! The last scheduled workshop is Wednesday, July 16 at 7:00 pm If you want the full Town Plastic Bag Ban ? Overview and Timeline (including SB270), please send an email to ceo@danvilleareachamber.com and we will send you the packet.
