From the meeting
During public comments on September 10, 2026, Lori Olinger of Northeast Metro Climate Options suggested ordinance changes to cut single-use plastics. Ideas included take-out utensil rules, compostable containers, bag charges, and zero-waste event guidance. Eureka Recycling said it would help develop guidelines, and staff mentioned using St.
Anthony ordinances as a template. This is an early policy-shaping signal that could create future consulting, outreach, or compliance work.
