A PLAN TO LIMIT PLASTIC SHOPPING BAGS IN SANTA FE IS A STEP CLOSER TO REALITY. A CITY ADVISORY COMMITTEE ENDORSED A PLAN ON TUESDAY, SO A VOTE BY THE CITY COUNCIL IS EXPECTED SOON.
IN A 5-TO-1 VOTE BY THE BUSINESS AND QUALITY OF LIFE COMMITTEE, THE MEASURE WAS APPROVED AND WILL BE INTRODUCED AT NEXT WEEK'S COUNCIL MEETING. CITIES WITH SIMILAR BANS INCLUDE LOS ANGELES, AUSTIN AND SEATTLE.
