The Frisco Town Council voted unanimously Tuesday, July 25, to approve the first reading of an ordinance aimed at reducing plastic waste and consumption.
If approved on a second reading, the ordinance would ban water sold in single-use plastic bottles less than one gallon and ban restaurants from selling products in containers made of expanded polystyrene, better known as Styrofoam. It would also require restaurants to only provide single-use products such as plastic cutlery and napkins upon request.
“Why I feel so confident about what we’re trying to do is every single person has access to the best water in the world when they’re in Frisco, and we’re not limiting that in any way,” Mayor Hunter Mortensen said. “We’re just limiting the plastic delivery of that water in our community.”
