The City of Half Moon Bay is considering adoption of the County of San Mateo’s Disposable Foodware Ordinance at the  September 15, 2020 City Council meeting. The Ordinance requires the use of compostable foodware and reduces the wasteful distribution of accessories such as straws, stirrers, cup spill plugs, condiment packets, utensils, napkins, etc. The last day to provide feedback for the proposed disposable foodware ordinance is this Friday August 14th. Businesses that may be impacted by the ordinance are encouraged to provide feedback to our Sustainability Analyst, Veronika Vostinak by email (vvostinak@hmbcity.com) or phone (650-750-2019).
